Ramas - PEARCE

Quite possibly the best Indian I have ever eaten. Now a Melbournian, I grew up in Canberra and Ramas was always our go-to. Mini and her staff are always friendly and accommodating, which makes for a great dining experience.

Cannot fault this little Fijian gem. On a recommendation, we were able to sneak in there with the last table of the night. Tip: book ahead! Beautiful rolled pumpkin roti and potato and pea roti. Lovely tamarin sauce. Fantastic. We then shared 4 curries: goat, lamb rogan josh, chicken madras and a beef ball kofta. Absolutely brilliant. Service was cheerful and attentive. Get there.

Rama’s is an old timer and extremely popular with locals. Part of their secret is Mini’s warm hospitality, but the food is also great!. Sit outside in the warm weather…. …or be cozy inside if it’s cool. Good choices are…. Chicken Dhai Wala – Boneless chicken pieces cooked in a spiced yoghurt sauce. $23.00

If I could give a higher score I would. I have been coming to Rama's since I was small and now that I don't live in Canberra I have to make my pilgrimage for the best Indian in town. Hard to pick my standout dishes as they are all excellent but can never go past the goat curry, pumpkin coconut Roti, prawn saabji, vegetable korma and beef vindaloo. I love this place! Amazing customer service from Mini and the girls.

Rama’s Indian Fijian Restaurant at the Pearce Shops is immensely popular and busy. Service is extremely friendly and efficient and there’s a real feeling of being welcomed and entertained. Prices are probably more than average but this is balanced by no corkage BYO, and more reasonable rice and roti prices. The food is also very good and serve sizes good for sharing between up to six people. Entrees include the very delicious Roti parcel $9 each..
