Rama's Fiji-Indian: Good Indian in the Suburbs

bruce_esme 3 reviews

Located in a small shopping centre in the southside suburb of Pearce, not far from Woden Town Centre. Ambience is not particularly Indian or Fijian - but it's neat, clean, warm-looking and the management and staff are very friendly and helpful. Service is excellent and you can bring your own drinks - corkage is very reasonable. No matter what night, the place is usually popular and I would suggest that booking is very advisable. Takeaway is also available.

Although it is called a Fiji/Indian, the menu is typically Indian. All the usual dishes are there - as well as some which may not be so well known. My partner and I have eaten there many times - either as a couple or with friends or as part of a larger group. We have never been disappointed with either the foiod or the service and atmosphere. In my humble opinion, the sauces(gravies) that accompany most of the dishes are lovely - even if the meats that are in the curry are only average quality.

The staff will advise you on the "heat" (chilli power!) ratings - our experience has been that Mild means very little chilli and that Medium is probably best except for those with the most robust of constitutions. Hot really is - only go for it if you are a committed chilli-head. In our view, the chilli taste at this level totally overwhelms the other flavours of the dish.

Prices are very reasonable - all in all the experience of having a meal here is very pleasant.

Favorite Dish: None will disappoint. We usually have something different every time we go.

I've classified this as an "Indian" restaurant, but it really is a Fijian/Indian restaurant. Rama's makes the most fantastic curries and if you ask for it hot, you better be ready for it. It's pretty casual and you can bring your own wine. It's a little out of the way, but if you seek it out you're rewarded.

Favorite Dish: All of them - especially the hot ones.

Rama's Fiji-Indian Restaurant
The food here is great and the prices are very reasonable. We have been here as a couple and as a group for birthday get togethers. The service is always great and 'doggy bags' can be provided if you can't fit it all in!

Favorite Dish: I love everything on the menu, especially the Roagn Josh, and my wife particularly enjoys the Lamb Saag.

This would be our favourite restaurant in Canberra and they also do take-a-way (with a delivery service as well).
