Sundoo Newlands

We were waiting outside and trying to decide on whether to enter. I looked up the reviews and decided to go somewhere else. We were beckoned back by Livingstone and decided to give them a try. We are glad we did. The complementary chips were a nice starting touch and the starters were some of the best we’ve ever had. The Momos… they were accommodating enough to let us have half chicken and half spinach. The curries were both good and we had an excellent meal all round. Everything was beautifully presented, the service was quick and Livingstone was super friendly. Nicely designed interior too. 5 stars 🌟

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.

Food was really yummy. The curry is enough for one person. It comes with a bit of rice, and there is one roti for R25 to order extra. I would suggest this as more of a take away place than sit down.

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

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.

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.

The worst curry I've had. The beetroot curry was a nice change but had very little curry flavour. The Dhal was even worse. No flavour and so watery I'm not sure how it was allowed to leave the restaurant. I guess I'm lucky that an hour after eating I was getting sick and got it out of my system...

So we were looking for a new curry spot... thanks, Google. After asking plenty of questions, we settled on the lamb and chicken curries, both on the bone. The curry is flavourful with just the right amount of burn, straight off the bat. Let's just say, for two big appetites, there was enough for the main dinner and plenty of leftovers for the next night( it also gets better the longer it stands)
