Sahana South Indian Restaurant

Food was amazing. Fresh and full of flavour. The goat briyani was amazing - soft briyani rice packed with the flavours of the tender soft meat and masalas + it was an unlimited briyani thali offering that made it even better. Service was phenomenal too - we arrived near closing to dine in but the staff never rushed us and told us to just enjoy our food.

I have visited Sahana Restaurant a few times, but my last experience was extremely disappointing. Despite there being fewer than four occupied tables, the staff seemed overwhelmed and disorganized. It took them 20 minutes to serve idlis at a South Indian restaurant, which was unexpected. The chicken lollipops were poorly prepared, with a thick fritter-like coating that looked unappetizing. When we requested extra sambhar for our three idlis, we were told we would have to pay extra, which felt unreasonable. The manager was not only rude but also visibly exhausted, likely due to the lack of staff. One person was juggling Uber orders over the phone while also serving customers in the restaurant, which only added to the chaos. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience. The food quality was far below what I had enjoyed on previous visits, and the service left much to be desired.

Recently we ordered south Indian food for a birthday party. Extraordinary food was served. Food was delicious. Lot of curries was given than expected. All people were mesmerized by the food and enquired about the food. If you want authentic south Indian food , no second option go for Sahana in Auckland.

Tried their new addition ‘Unlimited Biryani Thali’ and truly enjoyed it. This includes dal, rice, rasam, chicken 65 and omelette along with biryani. It was worth the spend and definitely love to go back and taste again.

Incredible Experience at Sahana! We recently ordered a large spread of food for our office from Sahana, and I can't rave enough about how amazing everything was! From the moment we opened the boxes, it was clear that we were in for a treat. The dishes were bursting with flavor, and each one was crafted to perfection. The variety of options was fantastic, offering something for everyone. Whether it was the rich, aromatic curries, the perfectly spiced biryanis, or the deliciously tender tandoori dishes, everything was simply outstanding. Not only was the food top-notch, but the service was also exceptional. Our order was handled with care, and everything arrived fresh and on time. It's no surprise that everyone in the office was raving about the meal – Sahana truly knows how to deliver a memorable dining experience. We will definitely be ordering from Sahana again for our next big event. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy authentic, mouthwatering Indian food that will leave everyone craving more!

We had such a lovely experience at Sahana! The owner was so kind, friendly, and helpful. We didn’t know what to get and he helped us select the best food items that were absolutely delicious! We will never forget our experience here.

First time today for us, we found Sahana just by searching in Google for a new place to try. We were not disappointed, we were told food might take a while but we didn't even notice the time pass us by as wel were enjoying ourselves. The wait staff were very polite and helpful, the food arrived and presented well, the most important fact is it all tasted great. The spice levels were more on the mild side but still food was flavourful and we will definitely be back to try more from the menu again. A great night out
