Banjara is simply the best.
I was introduced to this restaurant by friends about 5 years ago and I've been a regular ever since.
My favourite dish is the Paneer Makhani. It's one of the richest, creamiest Indian dishes I've ever eaten. I cannot stop ordering this dish; it's becoming a bit of a problem. It goes so well with a side order of rice or some naan bread (get the garlic naan - you shan't be disappointed).
Other favourite dishes include:
- Mutter Paneer (a slight variation on the Paneer Makhani, only with peas!)
- Saag Aloo (great combination of flavours in this dish)
- Chicken Curry (the sauce in this dish is outstanding - this dish is a must-order)
- Lamb Vindaloo (excellent, just excellent - get it spicy if you are up to the challenge)
If you like spicy food, you can ask them to custom make any dish with extra spice. Otherwise, the dishes will usually be quite mild.
One word of advice: only order take-out or delivery from here. They have seating at the restaurant but it's always packed and the service is disorganized and slow. Be prepared to wait up to 2 hours for delivery on Friday and Saturday evening during peak times (5pm-7pm).
