Paprika

I will never know if the food is good or bad. I do know the service is not good.

After our last attempted visit, things could only get better for Paprika.
Friday night means pre-​salsa food. It was a sweltering hot evening and we noticed that Paprika had tables set up outside on their deck and the door was open. Despite our bad experience previously, we decided to ask to look at a menu and it looked promising.
So we took a table outside. My mango lassi was exemplary, packed full of mango flavour and the chutneys with the popoddams were yummy.
We decided to go with some unfamiliar dishes — the chicken paprika and a lamb dish whose name escapes me. Both were full of flavour and well enjoyed.
During our visit, we spoke to the manager about our previous experience and he was very apologetic. They’re also going to post a menu outside from this week.
So a reprieve and we look forward to trying more dishes here.

I first visited Paprkia a few days after it opened back in 2006. Being a bit sceptical on trying new places, I thought I would give it a try and have never been to another Indian restaurant since. Located in the heart of Ewell Village, the atmosphere is amazing with extremely friendly staff waiting on you hand and foot. I would definately recommend this place to anybody who would like to try Indian cusine for the first time, or even if you are a regular and just want to try somewhere a bit new and different. If you have never had Indian before, my personal recommendation is the Chicken Korma with Pilau Rice — very tasty and not at all spicy.
