A strange place for a good eatery to be for sure! š¤ Nestled in Science Centre, next to Kids Stop. š The naan was legit possibly the best Iāve tried! Soft, fluffy, crispy on the edges. š„° Tried fish tikka, chicken tikka, butter chicken and palak paneer and all were fantastic as well! Prices came up to $88 for our table of 5+2 which was very reasonable!
Great indian food. Jeera rice is so fragrant, itās hard to eat just plain rice any more. All the dishes we ordered were fantastic.
The biggest problem was actually the beverageā¦ the ice tea was sad. š„²
Had first visited Phoenix at the original location on a few occasions in Bukit Panjang near Phoenix LRT (hence the name?). The homely atmosphere coupled with the personal service from the owners made it a regular 'go to' restaurant. And of course the food, which is why we keep coming back.
Was happy that they moved to a location inside Science Centre, easier accessibility and quicker drive from home! They've got a bigger space now in a more cordial setting, as opposed to the 'industrial feel' location they were in earlier.
The food doesn't disappoint and spice levels were just about nice on the curries we ordered. Not too overpowering and extremely pleasant on the taste buds. Doesn't give you that heavy masala-ish feeling that makes you feel bloated and heavy. So it was very light on the spices which can pull you through a post-lunch meeting without nodding off!
Service was a tad disappointing, probably new staff that needed a bit of training? The lady owner was around and of course very friendly and hospitable as before. But service in general needed some improvement.
The new ambience is nice and a welcome change from the smaller space they had earlier. They also have an extended dining space to cater for a larger crowd, especially on weekends.
