Permit Room - Governors Bay

I visited the Permit Room after being recommended it by friends. I was not disappointed. The food is amazing and very authentic. Such depth of flavors and not like your typical NZ style of Indian food. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for tasty authentic South Indian flavours. They also do amazing cocktails, which was a nice compliment to the meal. Well worth the visit!!! A shoutout to Alyssa for serving us some amazing cocktails, and giving great advice on food selections.

Amazingly flavoured food during our dinner. Not the usual curry house food, authentic flavours and generous portions. Also for people looking for indian style chai, this is the place! Highly recommended.

Nice atmosphere restaurant with good service….the size of the dishes needs a bit improvement

Very tasty and filling meals at a great price, plus has Heineken!!! Staff are friendly and a nice cosy atmosphere.

Sumptuous dishes from all over India, beautifully served. Our big family enjoyed a selection of small plates, before sharing a selection of larder ones. Hyderabadi Paneer and generous Dosa some of our favourites. Gorgeous setting (tiled bathroom with pressed tin roof! and location by the trams and Victoria Park. Warm, friendly staff. We will be back!
