Malabar Indian Restaurant & Bar (Nepalese & Indian Cuisine), Taupo - Menu, Prices & Restaurant Reviews

Another visit after several months not visiting Taupo did not disappoint. No need to book, on a Friday night the restaurant was surprisingly able to accommodate us at short notice. The friendly helpful service was still a feature and great to be remembered and welcomed....No serious changes to the menu meant we were to get straight down to our favourites: the trio of Momo , the trio of chicken and Palek Paneer an absolute feast. Such a great meal we returned twice in 3 days. Highly recommended.More

Highly Recommended Eating place

This was our second visit in Malabar, decided to give a try again. For real we were surprised that town wasn’t busy as we expected and hesitated a bit ti dine in.But we were hungry and decided to a go. For starter we had momo...and vegetable samosa, for mains we had Nepalese and India style Goat and Himalayan chicken. Both dishes were so tender and juicy we almost ate our plate . I would recommend this restaurant for every traveller who wants to try a fusion of Nepalese and Indian cuisine. You will get a worm welcome and nice gesture from staff for free. We will be back again guys!!!!!!!!More

Best Nepalese/Indian food

We had the best curry in Malabar since we moved back to New Zealand from UK. Those mutter masala and madrash were the top. Can't forget to talk about the tangy mocktail we tried, just amazing. Keep up your hard work mates and would be...back again.More

Not recommended for vegetarians

Ordered a vegetarian curry with a friend. The vegetables seemed to be from a frozen pack and the curry did not have much flavour. I expected more from a Nepalese / Indian restaurant as this is my favorite cuisine.

Dear Hemma, Really appreciate your time taken to review us. First, We are pretty sure you are not used to eating in any restaurants outdoor. Leaking plate until it gets thinner doesn't reflects an average food. Second, its clearly written that the price of platter...More

I could not stop eating even though I was no longer hungry after all the mo mos and curry. If I was alone I would have licked my plate before leaving.More
