Taupo Indian Cuisine On The Shore

Situated at the heart of North Shore's dining hub, Taupo Indian Cuisine On The Shore offers a bustling Indian dining experience.

The restaurant features a series of intimate alcoves. While small, these feel inviting and add an air of privacy to an evening's dining. Small tables for couples are also available, and every nook and cranny in the space is perfectly organised with an eye for detail.

Variety defines the food here. Well-paired spice blends are a speciality, and modern twists on traditional dishes keep things interesting. Moreover, an extensive vegan selection ensures options for vegans and vegetarians. Starters feature deliciously crispy samosas and a vegan chat, which showcases a mix of traditional Indian chat ingredients alongside crunchy poppadoms. For mains, there's everything from classics like kormas, tikkas and biryanis (go for the goat!) to fiery prawn vindaloos and an array of paneer curries for vegetarians.

When it comes to ending the meal on a sweet note, the timeless Indian dessert of gulab jamun is sweet and syrupy, or try the mango kulfi - this is a traditional Indian frozen dessert similar to ice cream.
