Although Sintra is enjoying quite a boom of Indian restaurants, this remains my favourite. The staff is always nice and helpful, the food is tasty and fresh. There's a nice terrace if the weather's helpful. Only downside is that it has a large smoking area which can be disruptive to the meal.

My family happened upon this restaurant for lunch during our day trip to Sintra. Our waiter was friendly and made our experience very enjoyable. The food was surprisingly excellent. Much better than many places we've tried in the U.S., which are numerous. Would highly recommend to anyone needing their Indian food fix.

We wanted a short break from Portuguese cuisine and decided to eat at this place. Kind of a mistake. We had two Indian dishes and two pizzas. All were edible, but not great food. Also, then portions were small and 10-14 Euro for a curry without rice (rice was extra) was a bit too much. Definitely not great value.

We were the only customers there! So, no trouble getting served. The Indian food makes a nice change but it was nothing special. However, it is a good value. Wine was available too.

our group said we wanted either Indian or Italian and we found this great gem of a restaurant. Excellent service and food each time we went which was at least five times during our six day visit in Sintra.

Enjoyed a lovely meal and bottle of wine here. The waiters were very friendly and efficient. They also do Italian food but can't comment on that as we didn't have it.

Just back from a 2 week holiday in Sintra & this place was our favourite restaurant! Just off the main street, it serves curries as well as pizzas & pastas - a perfect fit for the curry-loving adults & the Italian food-loving children. The staff were excellent & were attentive to the kids. We liked the al-fresco terrace - no... More

While discovering Sintra, we stumbled into this little hole in the wall restaurant. It turned to be beautiful as well as really large after entering through its side street entrance. We had a vegetarian and hypoglycemic with us, and the waiter helped us find exactly what we wanted on the huge menu. The food was amazing, I honestly find myself... More
