Surahi - Munich

By far the best Indian restaurant i have visited in Muenchen. Service here is simply the best and food is authentic in taste.

Nice location, nice people, but if you want nice food better off heading 5 minutes down the road to the Prince of India. Remember in the “prince” if you want is “hot” ask for English HOT, you have been warned.

I dunno about 'english' HOT..I have been warned about english hot at other indian places before..and turned out food was fairly bland...so I go the simple way..just ask for 'Indian' HOT..works all the time for me.

I dont understand - I was under the impression that Indians dont like their curry too hot - Having travelled around India, I found this to be true - I also found that most of the traditional dishes that we see in Indian restaurants in the west, rarely appear on menus back in their (so called) native country. The "extra" heat has only been added to appeal to the English pallete

Indians in the south are different than those up north. Southern style curries are mild and those from the nothern territories, both east and west, can be quite a bit spicier.

I am from North India, but I don't think south indian food is any milder! The stuff that is served in England or other places is developed with local preferences in mind. Most of dishes served don't exist even in India and are variations of normal indian food..spiced down and called exotic sounding names :-)

I'm from south india . I think the south indian curries are the most spiciest foods in india . maybe 2 to 3 times spiecier than the indian restaurants in Munich.

Been there...but was very disppointed. The big thali which we ordered was not enough..small portions...cold food...not such a great taste. Service was the only good part about it.

Well, I was impressed by the decor and general layout of the restaurant to start with. As usual I chose a Chicken Vindaloo, English hot, so I can compare it more easily with the other Indian restaurants I go to. Now... this curry was one of the hottest I've ever tried so be warned! I think I've only ever had one curry that was hotter so if you're used to asking for extra hot curries then bear this in mind! Portions were good, the nan bread was gorgeous but particularly spicy and they even did proper onion bhajis (if asked for!). Enjoy!

I went to this restaurant and had a rubbish curry - supposed to be Chicken Jalfrezi - wasn't really hot enough, chicken poor quality, sauce lacked flavour - could have been from a jar! We also had saag aloo - this was rubbish too. I thought oh well just won't go back however I had the worst food poisoning for the next 2 days (was definitely the curry) so I feel I should warn all, not only will you get bad food!
