Review Magik Masala - Adelaide

Curry was delicious. Absolutely calm and cozy ambiance. Owner was rude but staff genuinely adorable. I hate the kind of music they play. Common man find some good Indian melodies.

A M A Z I N G! Best Indian my partner and I have had since living in Adelaide! I always get nervous about ordering Indian food because of past experiences but this place has proved me wrong! We ordered 2 x Butter Chicken, Rice, Naan Bread, Papadums and a drink. Everything was perfect! And all for $25 delivered! Honestly great value, we will definitely be ordering again!

Beautiful food, lovely staff and happy to serve. We will definitely return to try other dishes... and their Kulfi.

I've heard good things about this place n decided to try ordering.. I ordered garlic naan n Chili cheese naan, chicken tikka masala, mint sauce n a mix platter of chicken tikka, seekh kebab, onion bhaji n samosa. The naan tasted raw n i could hardly taste the cheese n garlic in the naan. Chicken masala was really sweet. Paid $2.50 for the mint sauce which came in a tiny container filled only one third of the way n was so watery n sweet. the seekh kebab was so hard n over cooked n did not taste fresh. Onion bhaji was just mushy n oily. Samosa was so salty on the outside n so blend on the inside. The only thing I thought was really nice was the chicken tikka from the mix platter.

Ordered from here first time and was great flavors were great and left wanting more... Second time ordering and left feeling disappointed and sick. Mango chicken was watery n tasteless as if its jist a store brought jar added to meat and the goat curry was just bones more bones then meat. So wont be returning n will be looking elsewhere to eat.

We have come here three times now. The first time it was an amazing experience, the second time it was horrible, with the naan bread horribly burnt and the curries not even being the ones we asked for. The third time was a free meal the restaurant prepared so they could make up for last time as they said through a phone call I got earlier yesterday, it was not much better, they put way to much spice in it, to the point I could barely eat it and the naan bread was burnt again. I will not be returning to waste my money on food. It is just too inconsistent and would rather go somewhere else.

I'll try and make this as thorough as possible. Upon arriving, we were greeted quite warmly by the establishment and seated at a beautifully decorated table. The restaurant itself was extremely clean and tidy, and we had very pleasant appropriate music to accompany the entire meal. My husband and I had the buffet for two, which included an entre, a vegetarian curry, a non veg, non seafood curry, and two lots of naan bread. We chose the tika chicken masaala, a tofu masaala, and my husband chose some sort of potato cake with a mint sauce to dip. We also had two deserts, a naan bread with raisens and sweeter spices, and these little doughnut ball type things soaked in a sweet syrup. The entre was so delicious, with perfect portions for two people, that my husband actually cleaned his utencials to make sure he got every little morsel of potato cake(what?!) The sauce was divine. A perfect little mix of mint and spice. The curry was amazing. The chicken masaala was fantastically prepared, the chicken was juicy and well cooked, the tofu wasn't overcooked and had soaked up the curry beautifully. The rice was perfect, not overcooked, not undercooked, garnished with coriander which added beautifully with the curry. And holy cow, THE NAAN BREAD IS PHENOMINAL AND MADE IN HOUSE. Finally, we had our desserts, which was the raisen/sultanas(I personally do not know the difference) and the little doughnut things. At this point I was quite full, but the doughnut balls were beautiful, and were very warm and tasty, and the raise naan bread was amazing! The service itself was spot on, and we had very little downtime between meals. The entire mean was around $70 which included two desserts, two drinks, and the $42 buffet for two. Absolutely will be eating here again!

We were looking for a last minute dinner, did not dissappint! Food was amazing, 3 vegan entrees and 5 mains options, well priced and great service.

After waiting over one and a half hours my order finally arrived, only to find part of my order missing, the beef was extremally fatty and also found plastic in one of the curries. I tried to call the restaurant but by the time food arrived at 10pm the restaurant has ready closed for the night, so I had to call the next day and asked for the owner to call me back. I still have not received a phone call, tried to call back today to get in contact with the owner but no answer after trying to call over 10 times and even left a voice mail for them. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone, nothing about the food was good and extremally poor customer service.

Well what can I say. The delivery was over 40min late ordered lamb & chicken curry. The lamb had 2 pieces of meat & the chicken had 4 pieces. Stay away. These guys rip you off. Try somewhere else.

Ordered takeaway from Magik Masala. The Menulog pick up said one time however, it was nearly an hour later than said time (so 75mins after placing order) wasn’t too worried about time as I know it’s not a ‘fast food’ takeaway and I figured the food must be good to take so long. But, no. One person liked their dish of Butter Chicken (hence the 1*) but I ordered the Navratan Korma Veggies & the Malai Kofta - the veggies were frozen veg, which had that freezer burnt taste to them- not the ‘nine gems’ Navratan Korma should be & it was in the EXACT same sauce the Malai Kofta was in! And the malai kofta was a horrible texture and brown (as you can see by the pictures) - both dishes were inedible. Also, the naan bread was very heavy and doughy, but edible given that I just couldn’t eat either of the vegetarian dishes beyond a mouthful of either, and I was hungry. I tried calling the restaurant that night, but no answer as it was late-ish. I didn’t waste my time calling again.

Have never eaten in the restaurant but we have ordered delivery a few times now. Very high quality very tasty food! The best around for miles!! Highly recommended!!!!<br/><br/>EDIT: the restaurant has changed. I’ve dropped my rating to two stars and do not recommend. The serving sizes have shrunk considerably. The meals don’t contain much meat but the prices don’t seem to have changed. <br/>The butter chicken is delicious but was far too spicy for me to enjoy and I asked for a medium.
