This is the best Indian food I have ever had!! Value for money, CLEAN! Which is surprisingly hard to find these days and the food tasted like curry should taste! Each dish is made the way you want it and the service is great! I cannot recommend this place more highly! Please do yourself a favor and go to Aroma!!
Have just come back from supper at Aroma Restaurant - and wow, what a hidden gem! Bought the Groupon voucher - 1 starter and 1 mains per person. Complimentary Papadums to start with, which were delish, with some yummy dips including homemade chutney.
For starters we had the Brinjal Bhajia, Dum Aloo, Reshmi Kebab and Tandoori Garlic Chicken. All divine! First time I've had Indian cheese - which is made fresh on the premises daily. The chicken was super tender. Beautiful garnish, rose carved in beetroot. Indicates attention to detail.
For mains we had Butter Chicken, Spicy Mango Chicken and Chicken Shai Korma. They each had a unique flavour, all amazing in taste, the Korma being my fav. You can taste they were all made fresh, which is what the restaurant prides itself in. Everything is made fresh daily, so were told it would take some time. But the food still came out quickly if you ask me.
The naan was the best I've ever had, even better than Ghazal. The Jeera rice is also really good, very flavoursome.
The owners, mother and daughter team, came to chat to us. Both very friendly and clearly very passionate about their food. The kitchen is very clean and they have chefs who clearly know what they're doing.
It's a pity the restaurant wasn't full - it should be! Definitely some of the best Indian food I have had. And you can taste it's made with love. We will definitely be returning soon! Don't let the shopping centre/location deter you from going. Also, there is a reliable car guard on duty.
A definite must if you're on a quest to find the best Indian cuisine in Jozi. And you'd be supporting some wonderful people who love what they do and believe in quality.
Lovely evening. Food was superb, hosts wonderful and waiter attentive. A truly hidden gem. Don't miss it for the best curry ever. Thank you so much. We'll be back.
