A new outlet in busy Riverside precint. Decent set up and cosy booths. Fast and prompt service. The food was really good. The colours, aromas, flavours and textures were all outstanding. We loved the crunchy Yorkshire puddings stuffed with chicken kebabs and delicious chutneys. The biryanis were presented covered with bread dough and it was beautifully done. We loved it heaps. We were in a hurry and didnt have time to dig into curries. Will be back for sure.
I purchased a GrabOne voucher and decided to visit this place, and it turned out to be a fantastic experience. The location and service were exceptional, and the restaurant's ambiance was tastefully designed. We started with the Gulati kebab, which were incredibly tender and practically melted in our mouths. The kebabs were served with naan bread, salad, and sauce, creating a delightful combination. For the main course, we tried the Yakkhan chicken, which was rich, creamy, and had a subtle spiciness that paired perfectly with the naans. The chicken in the curry was succulent and had a delightful smoky flavor, adding depth to the dish. We also ordered the lamb shank nihari, which had a tomato-based curry. The lamb was tender and fell off the bone, and the curry complemented the rice beautifully. Overall, it was an outstanding dining experience. The prices were reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and the prime location.
Two fat Indians is a nice restaurant in the heart of Christchurch city. The good thing is that it had authentic desi taste and not sweety taste in dishes we tried. We had Chicken Malayi tikka that was awesome (although quantity is small for price). The lamb shank Nihari was also very good (a bit salty but tasty) and meat was tender. Seating place is good and service is also good. Recommend if you love desi food and taste.
