It was certainly nice to return here, after some perhaps 10 years ago. Certainly a much quieter environment than previously, when the sounds would just reverb back down from the hi

Two friends and I went for dinner before the theatre. We shared a paapdi chaat, two mains, some rice and cheese naan and we couldn’t finish it all. Service was prompt and friendly

Dinner was delicious; however our meal took an hour to be served. I think this was due to a mistake and will still go back another time because the food was great.

Food was excellent. Service was great. Staff were great. Menu was very hard to choose from, it all sounded tasty, eventually settled on a few dishes. Will definitely go there again.

Food was tasty, variety of dishes and service was good. Especially recommend Goanese fish curry which goes well with naan bread.

About the restaurant

Treat your taste buds to the culinary delights India has to offer at Blu Ginger. A brightly patterned feature wall, high ceilings and funky light fixtures add to the atmosphere of this Indian eatery. Located on 5 Genge Street, Canberra, pick a table in front of the glass wall overlooking the road – it's a great people-watching spot as you eat.

Blu Ginger goes through great pains to pick the freshest, locally-sourced produce and combine it with imported, and authentic, spices from the sub-continent. The result? Some of the best Indian food you've ever sunk your teeth into. Families who have a hankering for upmarket Indian food or groups of friends will fit in nicely here.

Tender, smoky lamb cutlets take centre stage on the starters menu while a lentil and coconut vegetable kootu is mixed in a deliciously thick sauce that has a surprising kick to it. Don't expect any bland chicken tikka masalas here either – mouther-wateringly creamy and peppered with capsicums is what you'll get. Order fluffy garlic naan breads on the side and your stomachs will leave more than happy.
