Food is beautiful. Great black lentil Dahl and a fragrant rich chicken korma. Enough to make you feel you’d had enough but hoped to get one more bite in as the flavours were so good.

The Hindi waitress who served us was totally disinterested and unwelcoming. The male waiter who came later was excellent. The food was good and we enjoyed it. A smile from the wait

It was certainly nice to return here, after some perhaps 10 years ago. Certainly a much quieter environment than previously, when the sounds would just reverb back down from the hi

Two friends and I went for dinner before the theatre. We shared a paapdi chaat, two mains, some rice and cheese naan and we couldn’t finish it all. Service was prompt and friendly

Very impressed with the wait staff and kitchen. Our table shared a variety of curries and there was plenty for everyone. Great wine selection to go with any thing on the menu.

The food was great, the menu extensive and interesting. They were at full occupancy and this did affect how long the meal took to arrive - table service was pretty good for a resta

Food is good. First time to try and taste indian food and it didn’t get me wrong! However the time of food to arrive is a bit longer than the usual.

About the restaurant

Treat your taste buds to the culinary delights India has to offer at Blu Ginger. A brightly patterned feature wall, high ceilings and funky light fixtures add to the atmosphere of this Indian eatery. Located on 5 Genge Street, Canberra, pick a table in front of the glass wall overlooking the road – it's a great people-watching spot as you eat.

Blu Ginger goes through great pains to pick the freshest, locally-sourced produce and combine it with imported, and authentic, spices from the sub-continent. The result? Some of the best Indian food you've ever sunk your teeth into. Families who have a hankering for upmarket Indian food or groups of friends will fit in nicely here.

Tender, smoky lamb cutlets take centre stage on the starters menu while a lentil and coconut vegetable kootu is mixed in a deliciously thick sauce that has a surprising kick to it. Don't expect any bland chicken tikka masalas here either – mouther-wateringly creamy and peppered with capsicums is what you'll get. Order fluffy garlic naan breads on the side and your stomachs will leave more than happy.
