$20 each for 3 curries, rice and naan with no extra for corkage this place is great. We had such a good night. I asked for one very hot and it was hot but not VERY hot. The waitress asked if I found it hot enough (I demolished it) and I said it was tasty but I wouldn't mind more heat. She said people ask for heat but don't often mean HOT and that next time she would make sure it's real Indian hot. Can't wait! The location lets the beautiful furnishings down and it's quiet on week nights (fair enough) so you lose a bit of ambience and the mild curry to me was a bit meh but hubby enjoyed them lots. Something for every Indian taste!

Their chicken korma is absolutely delish and the owner is super friendly! The vindaloo is great too. This is my go-to place for when I'm craving Indian curry
The best Indian food I have ever had. I have been going there for years even now that I live 45 mins away, It's totally worth the travel. Kuma is the nicest and charismatic guy and provides a humble and humorous dining experience. I recommend there sweet curries, mmmmm so good.
The owner used to live in England so he knows how to make a curry. Easily one of the best in Australia and definitely in Brisbane - the flavours are great and not from a jar, as some others in Brisbane are.
been to Kuma couple times once with a party group & a take away
the curries are ok as others have said plenty of meat the owner aims to please, he'll even alter menu to suit a particular taste
worth a visit
Best Indian. We love this cafe, the staff are always pleased to help, and it has a great relaxed atmosphere. We have been going to this cafe since it first opened and seen a lot of ongoing improvements. It now is a 40 min drive drive one way, since moving away from the area. Certainly worth the drive for a great meal!
Always great experience. We love this place! The owner makes us feel like we are the only customer even when it is busy. The stuff is really helpful.
Highly recommended:)
Always great when we come here. Great food, great service! Would absolutely recommend.
AMAZING PLACE AND SERVICE. By far the best indian I have ever had!
A+
Mr Kuma always makes his guests feel welcome and comfortable as dose all of the staff, It's a very happy and friendly atmosphare.
Iv been going there for three years now have enjoyed every meal.
Always a pleasure to dine here, been going here for years with friends. Just leave it up to Kuma to bring a range of delicious dishes. Excellent value- just be patient if its busy, as it often is!
Cafe Kuma. Have been going for years. Love the Kasmiri Chicken and the naan bread. The owner and staff are always friendly and helpful. I have always found the food tasty and plentiful and reasonably priced.
I love this place. Kumas is somewhere my friends have frequented for years. Great atmosphere and great service. The currys are brilliant and at a great price. I would have to say my favourite part about dining here is that the owner doesn't treat like just another number. It's the type of service you don't get very often. The owner is friendly and even after not dining there regularly he always remembers us and even notices when someone's had a hair cut or if they have changed anything with their appearance. It pains me to see so many negative people acting so precious about the currys and not being to their liking. It's cheap food for $18 you get 5-6 curries so you can have a bit of everything, rice and 3-4 naan if it doesn't fill you up then maybe you need to see a doctor about getting your stomach stapled. All I can say is if you haven't been here before you are missing out!! It never hurts to try something different.

I LOVE CAFE KUMA. The food is yummy and service is brilliant not to mention the prices. I have been there a handful of times and the business owner has made it a very wonderful experience. Very personalized he is willing to seat us where we prefer and have been able to request the music. I have been to a lot of Indian restaurants and Cafe Kuma is the only one where I have felt like a valued customer.
I don't know how exactly I feel about this place. Everyone has raved about all over urbanspoon so I had to check it out. Upon taking our seat, the owner told us that for 15 bucks a head we would get 4 curries and rice. The curries arrived in quick fashion and all I can say is they were ok. Most of them were quite sweet and in the end tasted very similar. I am no curry expert what so ever, but as cliche as it is the flavours were dull and restrained. The price tag may seem cheap but the curry serves are pretty small so it comes to probably about the same price as anywhere else. The service though was great and the owner made every effort to take care of us
The quality of the food is unbelievable. Kuma consistently delivers simply amazing quality for the price. The success of this restaurant is not Only in the food but the heart of this man. The amount of local charities he supports is incredible for the size of his business. He deserves to be acknowledged as the cream of our society. Well done Kuma and thank you for looking after us for all these years.
Best Indian in Brisbane. Cafe Kuma is fantastic. Amazing service, wonderful food, generous servings- an experience like no other. I highly recommend dining here, you will not regret it.
I Love Kumas (+ Kuma). Kumas is the greats restaurant ever, everyone is sick of me talking about it and if I catch you saying anything bad about it, or even worse down-voting it - watch your back! :)
The food is to die for and Kuma is a legend, so generous. A friend lost all his stuff in the Jan floods and Kuma didn't just let him eat for free, he insisted that everyone at the table that night pay their money to my friend and not the restaurant! Where else would that happen??
Curries are great, Kuma the owner made us feel welcome from the beginning. Interesting decore!! Nothing was too much trouble :)
Perfect dinner. Very friendly and pleasant place.
great food - very good service
a place to enjoy fully
Absolutey amazing!! Cafe Kuma has the best food, best service and best atmosphere! Always a plesant experience. Tonight we were outside waiting for our takeaway order when Kuma came outside to check whether or not we wanted to come inside where it was warm. When we insisted that we were fine outside, Kuma came and turned the outside heater on for us! He always goes above and beyond! Always extra rice or Nann as well! Absolutely the best!
Delicious food, excellent service, simply cannot fault the cafe or Kuma & his staff. Will definitely be regulars!
Best Indian in Brisbane. This is the best Indian in Brisbane. The food is amazing and is very well priced. The owner Kuma is such a lovely and warm person. He is constantly donating money to various charities and people in need. If you dine in Kuma (whom is there 7days a week) will look after you. He does an $18 special where he will bring out two different dishes per person lots of nann bread and rice, its great value. Also if you order Take Away he always throws in free nann bread and if the order is over $49 he gives you a free curry and 2 nanns.
Customer Service is the highlight.. Excellent Customer Service- very friendly. Delicious curry dishes and naan bread. The chicken dahl is yum! A favourite :)
Great place! We walked in and were seated right away. The owner came to our table and said no need to look at a menu I'll look after you. 15 mins later 4 different curries and rice came out. $18 per head for 4 curries and rice! Excellent value awesome food! Will defiantly be a regular
Love Kuma. Not only does this restaurant serve flavoursome food at a great price, it also does a lot for the local community. I have no quams about driving 30kms for Indian food at Kuma. Worth every cent of fuel!
Great food. Great service. Great price. All you want in an Indian restaurant. It's just fabulous. I get kumas at least 3-4 times a month lovely food!!
Cafe Kuma rocks. Best Indian food in Brisbane. Very authentic and great service from mr Kuma himself. Highly recommend trying this place out.
