★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The chicken biryani is absolutely top notch. The food is absolutely fantastic. This is a great place and the whiskey lounge is lovely - if you really appreciate good Indian/Malaysian cusine - then it's worth a visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place has had a makeover recently. It has been done well with nice decor. The menu has been revamped with Indian dishes that appear more authentic than the standard fare such as Rogan Josh. Waiters attentive. Good selection of craft beers. There is a whisky menu. Didn't partake but seemed a reasonable selection. Certainly worth a try if you like this cuisine.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Now re-branded as Koi, the original owners and chefs are back and transformed the place. The new decor is superb with amazing design features throughout.
The new Whiskey lounge is brilliant. We have had pre-show drinks here a few times now and we really enjoy the huge soft leather couches and the whiskey and craft beer range is really impressive. You can even buy your own locker here and then put a whiskey in it from the bar and come in and drink from it whenever you want. When it runs out, just buy another bottle from the bar and put it in your locker. It's an awesome way to have good whiskeys and the range is really impressive with whiskeys from all around the world, including a lovely one from India which I recommend.
I've always been a fan of the chefs here (and at their other restaurant India Today) and the food is a real highlight. The new menu has the usual favourites as well as some new recipes (I like the malay/indian fusion). The presentation is very good and the prices are so reasonable. I find the staff the best in New Plymouth too...very professional and attentive.
We are very lucky to have some really cool restaurants in New Plymouth, it always impresses our friends from out of town and Koi is right up there with the best.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We booked early and had the best service. The restaurant was literally our own for the first hour. We started with a specialty Scottish whiskey and a specialty gin, Indian the best I have ever had Our starters of mixed poppadums and chicken were not only pretty but superb followed by mains that were filling and perfection. My husband rated the butter chicken as the best he has ever eaten. My Lamb shank medium was spicy and was to the liking of my pallet, I especially loved the thick sauce infused with plump mushrooms and cauliflower which coated the rice and garlic and cheese nairn that accompanied, it was completely sublime. The surroundings at the Koi give an authentic feeling of being in an exotic setting. The music sets the mood. The service is efficient and caring without being intrusive. We shared a bottle of sauvignon which beautifully complimented our meal, our only regret was not leaving room for dessert.
Obviously we will definitely return and highly recommend. The best Indian food we have eaten in a long time.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a beautiful restaurant in the heart of New Plymouth! The interior is authentic, colourful and sophisticated. Friendly service. Full of spice, delicious food! A bit pricey but worth it as their portions are very generous. Must visit if in New Plymouth.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Most overrated place in the whole of New-Plymouth. Three stars are for the ambiance and the theme within the restaurant. Hospitality and the food is just below average, Portions are about the size of an ant., overpriced AF. Tried the food here on two various occasions and left disappointed ea time. Somehow they managed to pull off on the drinks!! O

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Worst experience. Waited for over 2 hours for mains. Cant believe you dont get rice served with butter chicken and that it needs to be shared between two meals.
The person behind the bar did not even know how to use the till and so he had to leave everyime we wanted to buy drinks.
They also burnt my brownie on their hotplate and made it spoke in my face. OVERPRICED and not very big portions. I will never recommend to others or return.
