The delicious aromas and friendly greeting immediately gave us the impression that we were in for a real treat - and Curry Twist did not let us down.
Glasses of water and poppadoms were brought to the table as our server explained the day's specials. We choose the Veggie Samosa special to split as a starter, $5.45. The pastry is crisp, not greasy with a tasty filling, served with a tangy tamarind dip. We opt to share: two veggie entrees -Veggie Paneer Twist , $9.95 and the daily vegetable special - Okra & Eggplant, $9.95 each and both beautifully prepared, plain Naan $1.95, and Plain Basmati Rice $2.95. All of the dishes were freshly made from high quality ingredients and not greasy.
We were seated in the front window, and the open kitchen is in the middle of the restaurant, so we did not get a full view of the dining area. What we could see, we liked. The colour scheme is that of exotic spices and the art work and light fixtures have an eastern flair. It was a busy night and the layout doesn't provide much space to maneuver in however service was prompt and friendly. Definitely worth a repeat visit.
