Loved our first meal at Masala Kitchen - exceptional flavours, friendly and helpful staff and a buzzy atmosphere. Needed to get to grips with what they consider hot (spicy) and what we considered hot (they erred on the side of caution!) but cannot fault the flavours and food quality. Amazing array of gins on offer - on the pricy side (50% of our overall bill!) but again good quality. Will definitely be back...

Great food, good service, but the very noisy environment spoiled the experience. You need to soften the floor, or the walls to absorb the sound as we had to shout across a small table to get heard. And it was only half full.

The food was sublime, although the mains were a bit on the small side. Food is beautifully presented and the flavours are just wonderful. Everything was well cooked and so fresh. Huge selection of cocktails and they are so well balanced I can honestly say they are the best I've ever had. Staff are awesome, not hanging over you all the time and actually give you a chance to enjoy your meal. They are attentive though and easily available for your needs - quite a few other venues could learn from how well they manage their service. The layout is nice and bright and airy. Enjoyed it so much, will definitely be back and can easily see it becoming a regular.

Visited on a Saturday afternoon at 2:30. The restaurant has only been open a few weeks and there are obviously new team members who are still finding their way. Nonetheless the service was great, food delicious and as we visited at happy hour the drink prices fantastic! All of the team at Masala kitchen who served our table were brilliant, always smiling and attentive. We will definitely be back for more.

Really liked the modern take on an Indian restaurant. Food was excellent. We had a couple of gins but the tonic water was pretty flat which was disappointing. I also think the gins were too big, you couldn’t taste the gin or alcohol as there was so much tonic. Needs a better ratio. We asked to move tables when we arrived as we felt stuck in between two other tables and they were very close. I also don’t get why you would expect to leave dirty starter plates at the table for us to use for the main too. We asked for fresh plates which they gave us. Aside from that it was great and would definitely come back. Just a couple of tweaks needed. Hope that’s useful. Thanks.

The first time I went to Masala Kitchen in Dee Why was on a Sat night and the food was spectacular, the vibe was amazing. The service and food service was slow with not enough staff on for a Sat night but we didn't mind too much as all our friends enjoyed the food and live music. The second time I went back for Sun lunch and the food was tasty. However the dahi puri wasn't as good as the first time I had it, there wasn't a balance of sweet and tangy as there was too much yoghurt and the naan was a little overdone so was crispy. It would also be good if you had traditional Indian desserts on the menu instead of the just the fusion desserts as I just wanted a plain galab jamun. I would go back again!

Lovely staff and a good ambiance maybe a little too bright, could turn down the lighting a little. Food was excellent, had the tandoori tike to start, then the lamb in spinach so good, the Prawn dish could have been spiced up a bit it was a bit bland. But in General had a very nice evening. Will go back for cocktails and try some more dishes

Food, one vegetable curry and one prawn curry were both wonderfully authentic and deliciously spicy and the coconut sauce with the prawns was outstanding. Good service and value for money in a location overlooking Dee Why Beach.

The staff were just so lovely. Great service could not have been more obliging. The atmosphere has a great feel. It's hard to comment on the food as we are all different in what we like. Dumplings with prawns I found was not an actually prawn but pureed maybe, did not enjoy but the sauce was amazing. The Lamb paneer was fatty in parts. Butter chicken was just ok, sauce could have been much thicker but nice taste and chicken cut better. My Spicy cocktail I drank in two minutes, far too much ice therefore $17 not good value for what I got. Overall the staff 10/10. We will come back and I think you are on a gold mine if you just improve on the food slightly and careful with the cocktails.

The food was absolutely amazing! Beyond our expectations. The service was pretty bad but it’s a new place and they will for sure get into a flow - the manager seems to be very on top of things. Also they’re putting in something to fix the acoustics S it’s very loud and I think a little too bright to be honest. But we will keep Coming back again and again as the food is awesome and we are all about supporting our local businesses.

food was tasty, good atmosphere. Service good, but they were busy. A bit noisy so the wait staff couldn't hear us well and difficult to ask many questions about the menu. Ordered red wine, but they didn't ask which red wine we wanted and just brought a glass, same happened for the second glass, both were different wines.

Ambience rated lower as the lighting is far too bright and the restaurant is very loud, this may have been due to all the doors and windows being closed in cooler nights. The service is good when you are being attended, but drinks are slow to come out and the waiters are rather confused, possibly from being new and not being able to hear you over the noise.

Mains are excellent and cocktails fantastic. But the Street Food starters really are bad. We had the Dahi Puri and on a previous occasion the Avocado Bhel. Tiny, over sauced, poor value, uninteresting. Feels like all the thought goes into the design but nothing else. Could do with some traditional street food starters like bhajis, pakora, more samosa options, some better paneer or keema options.

Was expecting more from this restaurant. The food was ok but nothing special. My cocktail was very nice though. We had quite an abrupt waitress so we left only a minimal tip. Don’t think I will be back as there are other much better Indian restaurants on the Northern Beaches

Out overall experience was great and I will return. I imagine my issues are due to the newness of the restaurant, however, we were sat at dirty, unset table (despite having a booking and lots of other two seater options available. Staff could have been more attentive around drinks (and our meals came before our first drink order did).

Service wasn’t the best. We had to wait a while. Food was good. Ambience doesn’t suit a Indian restaurant. Mexican maybe. It has more bar vibes so a different cuisine, even tapas would be ok. It was a bit loud in there.

Hi the food is amazing. The service still needs abit of work we received our main meal before the entree. It’s lovely have a soloist play but the restaurant is quite noisy without the music so probably not needed

The food was very good and well priced. But overall the noise in the restaurant was too loud and made having a conversation at the table extremely difficult. It was also very hard placing our order with the waiters/waitresses as they couldn’t hear us clearly enough and therefore mixed up the drinks orders and some of the food. Having a guy singing didn’t help with the noise level as well. To help more with the ambiance, I think turning some of the lights down or off could help. There was definitely an over abundance of lighting! These comments relate to our experience having dinner at the restaurant.

Food and service amazing but very noisy and I am sure if you asked all the patrons there that would No Music. We are here to eat and talk to friends. Far too loud.
