Daawat The Taste of India - Leederville

Great flavours. All dishes we ordered were delicious and very reasonably priced. We had chicken tikka, veg biriany, masala dosa dhal. Popadums and raita. $47 Yummy.

We bought a Scoupon voucher for a three course meal for two at this restaurant (which was really a cafe). To start we had to share an entree for one. The coupon came with a soft drink included. We don't drink soft drink so I asked if we could have a Lassi instead and pay the difference, to which she agreed. The entree was very nice. It was followed by a serving of butter chicken and another of beef varuval. The curried were served, but we had no cutlery and had to ask for it. The butter chicken was tasty, but a lot hotter than I've ever had before. Both of us were blowing our noses a few minutes after starting the curry. The next course was the beef curry. I had one mouthful and found it very dry and lots of cartilage on the meat. Then I found a long string of something in my mouth. It looked like a piece of a bag or something. Most unsavoury. I couldn't eat any more. We sent the whole beef curry dish back to the kitchen with the piece of string, but didn't even get an apology. Then when we went to pass over the voucher and the $2 extra for the lassi, she wanted us to pay the full cost. Won't ever go back to this place again. The food certainly didn't make up for the rest.

Very good food. Great friendly service. Good value for money. Also do take away! Highly recommended. We will be back!!!!

There are not many places in Perth that do dosa and uttapams Daawat is one that serves credible South Indian dishes. that are reasonably priced. The paneer uttapama is delicious with just the right amount of green chilli. The sambals are very authentic. We will be certainly be back to try the rest of the menu.

My daughter and i made an impromptu visit to this restaurant on a cold Tuesday night. We were the only dine in customers and were pampered to the max. We received a complimentary papadum with a refreshing sauce to start. We chose onion bhajis to share, and then for mains we ordered chicken biriyani and dahl with roti. The food came ready quickly, although obviously they werent busy. We had visited India and can honestly the lovely fragrances took us right back there! The food was more than enough for is and we ate more than was comfortable as it was too nice to leave. Having stuffed ourselves, i didnt think we could eat more but we were treated to a lovely complimentary dessert, which was a citrusey, coconutty cakey slice which was also delicious. This indian eatery was not flashy, but authentic and delicious, the staff was lovely and we will definitely go back.
