Sundoo Newlands

Something has changed! Not at all like it used to be. Food: the starters were good, samoosas and Puri Patha, tasty, but quite pricey for what you get. We ordered the lamb curry off the bone and it arrived on the bone, when rice comes in a shared portion which is quite sneaky and the butter chicken was definitely lacking in flavour and texture. The roti was not soft and fresh as one would expect. Wine items not in stock and the server didn't know anything about what to replace it with. Service: service was average, only one server on a Fri night makes it difficult when it comes to taking care of the entire restaurant. Atmosphere: cosy and welcoming. Probably my last time visiting this establishment.

Had the Hammas lamb curry off the bone with basmati rice and some rotis🍛. Succulent soft lamb in spicy sauce which had heat but was not overpowering. Delicious and flavorful. Great service all around by the staff as well.

Great little restaurant. We had the sweet potato samosa as a starter, which was delicious. We had lamb breyani and dhall to share... the portion was more than enough for two people. Service was attentive.

Food gets a 2 for taste but try order other items and out of stock Collect my order which was not ready after 1h30 but anyway- pay for everything ladyu gives me the bag does not apologize that she just doesn't give us the carrot or tomato dalad which is meant to go with out order R670 and not even apology. She has the salads just not a bowl 🤣 oh ok could she not make another type of plan or just give the 2 larger bowls with salad. But pay no apology, call no apology just get told they didn't have bowl What do you have? Not worth for the bad service and not providing all that is meant to come with the food Ordered regularly but won't do so in a hurry and definitely won't recommend

Our time at Sundoo was amazing. This place is very nondescript and can almost be easily missed as its rather small. But don’t let this fool you. Upon arrival we were soon to our table and the cozy atmosphere was further enhanced by load shedding which meant candlelit table adorned the restaurant. Our server was polite and very helpful and offered suggestions as well. For starters we had chicken and lam samosas to share for the table. This was an amazing treat and was sign of things to come. Served with a coriander chutney which was amazing. For mains I opted for the Hummas Lamb. Your choice of boneless or bone in should be an easy as bone in is the clear winner in my opinion with that added flavor vorm through. If you’re worried about spiciness then I would recommend going medium as this brilliant. I ordered the hot version (the middle of the pack choice) and it can easily overpower a novice. The curry they make has a depth of flavor that supports the spice and doesn’t fall away. Our mains were served with rice which I missed on the menu but also I didn’t ask. We ordered rotis for the table and a serving of jeera rice. In hindsight not needed but was amazing as well. In summary I would recommend this place and I will gladly be back as I believe a have now found my curry place in Cape Town. Give it a try and enjoy this experience

I’ve had the pleasure of dining both in & out at Sundoo a few times, in every instance they have delivered with such intense flavor, I would find it difficult to articulate a suitable sentence of tasty goodness. Be sure to try the samosas, rotis and clay oven curries. There is not much I can fault, even their IPA was exceptional 🍺 Ciao ~ SB 🍛

After getting names off Google for Indian restaurants in Cape Town, last night it was the time to try #Sundoo_Newlands. I ordered the Tarka Dal (which came with a portion of rice, sambals and carrot salad), to go. I ordered the Vindaloo spice level. When I got home and dished the Dal and Rice, my word the Dal was unbelievably, excellent. Just like any of the top places from back in Durban or like home cooked. Finally found a go-to place in Southern Suburbs for my favourite food, viz. Dal. Most definitely will be repaying this restaurant a visit, again. I can see why they won some food award.

Ordered the lamb and potato wrap off Uber eats and it was so frikken delicious! All the right flavors, the lamb soft and the wrap was a paratha so nice and buttery. Overall I'm impressed and I would 100 % order again. Worth the price. Also they have a really tasty mango pickle.
