Incredible food! Authentic and delicious! Food is consistently good every time we come here and the service is swift and friendly. Chicken Korma, butter chicken and rolmali roti are not to be missed!

I have never been disappointed with Banjaara! Their curries & naan are always so delicious. I do think they are pricey so the Tuesday night special is a real treat & very appreciated! :)

This is our favourite Indian restaurant...the food is delicious from start to finish. A no thrills authentic restaurant...never disappoints with speedy service. The menu has a vast selection of starters, lamb, chicken and seafood curries, breyani, bunnies, etc and the rice pudding or coconut ice cream is tops. A must visit if you are in the area.

How I love Indian cuisine. Banjaara is the place to be if you share the love for Indian food. They're menu consists of a big variety of options. The butter chicken is to die for and the lamb curry just does it for me. Their rice pudding blows my mind.

Banjaara Bedford is never a disappointment, the food and service is always great. It remains one of my favourites for North Indian cuisine..

Five out of six of our table were really impressed by their curries. I had the mild butter chicken which had the perfect bite and delicious flavour, as well as generous amounts of chicken. The naan was also buttery and soft. The menu has lots of options, with a few good options for our vegan friend too.

The wine list was pretty small, so you won't have a lot of options there. The service is efficient and earnest. The decor is pretty and expected and the ambience is very calm. 

So basically a great place for a really good meal, provided you aren't looking for a festive night out.

Best Lamb Bunny in the Eastrand, although their curries are influenced mostly by the North-Indian style their lamb bunny curry tastes very similarly to the South African Durban Indian style which is influenced by South-Indians

Recently had their lamb breyani, it was great! I will definitely go back for their Breyani and try out their other curry dishes. Their vegetable samoosas were on the downside,not so great, too much potatoes and grease.

Good service—our dinner came to our table more quickly than we expected. I really enjoyed the chicken badame. The other dishes we ordered were nice as well. We asked for medium but I would consider the dishes more on the mild side. Still, everything was nice and flavourful. Good Indian dishes.

I'm not a fan of curries so Indian isn't really something I regularly have on my plate however I can vouch for the tandoori chicken and the roti, both are tasty abducted service good. The have a Sunday buffet at a decent price as well.

Lasts weeks Diwali celebrations took us for an amazing taste experience at Banjaara Bedfordview!

Right next to the cinemas at Bedford Centre is a beautiful, detailed and invitingly decorated restaurant.

I LOVE Indian food! One of my favourite but I always feel like some dishes are not quite right! No issues with that here! The food is absolutely divine, so well presented in tradition dishes and tastes better than the Instagram pic with filters!

We had the chicken korma (my absolute favorite) and the Lamb Gosht Badame with garlic naan bread!

The sauces were made just perfect: chillier wasn't over powering, the chutney had exact sweetness needed and the pickled mango divine!

If you LOVE Indian cuisine like me definitely try it out! I had such a "happy place" moment there!

Went to Banjaara for a dinner with my bestie, Diane. The service was excellent... the manager was really attentive!
The food was really tasty and the portions were generous. Di and I shared a Chicken Korma, Lamb Vindaloo and some Butter Naan . I particularly enjoyed the Chicken Korma! Diane Wiese

Since they updated their decor the beautiful Indian restaurant made an all-rounder status. I had the lamb vindaloo- full of flavour and the additional pashwari naan was made to perfection. Reasonably priced and friendly service

The food at this long standing restuarant is good however I do find that is it in a very odd location. However, a few years ago since the renovation it feels more welcoming. Overall the food is enoyable and there is a good variety for vegetarians and non vegetarians alike.

The meal are priced at the normal rate for such a restaurant and location. Do try a lassi here with a vegetarian curry as it is very tasty and of a good generous size.

I haven't been here for a little while and will be visiting it again in the near future to review the service and starters.

Atmosphere: A bit weird, being sort of in the shopping mall area, even though this looks like it's supposed to have specialised decor, but otherwise OK.

Seating: comfortable chairs, tables spaced out adequately

Service: polite, professional, understanding, quick

Food: superb

I'm not very experimental when it comes to different cuisines but Banjaara is a must. The vegetarian options are tasty and filling. One meal is enough for 2 adults and the service is reliable. I would go here 10 times before trying another restaurant.
The buttered naan bread is a must with all the curries.

Banjaara is the 1st Indian Cuisine Restaurant that I have been to and they have really left me surprised, especially when I didn't quite know what to expect.

Their seating is spacious and family friendly and their menu filled with curries and other Indian delicacies. Their service was a bit slow but I can guarantee that the food more than made up for that.

For starters, I had garlic and butter naan bread - oh wow, how delicious that was... I 've never looked back since. For mains, I had the mild Chicken Korma Curry. The curry was simply delicious and the portion was very filling, I even had an abundance of food left over.

All in all it, was a very pleasant experience and I'll definitely be more that happy to have a meal there again... and maybe even try a hotter curry next time

My favourite Indian restaurant in Jhb. What I love about this restaurant is that it feels like a traditional Indian restaurant - it is not fancy looking and it's look may detract it's potential customers but the flavours are amazing and their garlic naan is phenomenal! Don't waste your time or money on the expensive fine dining type Indian restaurants like Ghazal! Go to Banjaara - amazing price and a fantastic dish! Love it!

Food always excellent. They will go out of their way to accommodate you and make you feel comfortable. Management and staff very polite, sometimes a language barrier but no complaints at all. Highly recommended. If you have never been there it will be worth your while paying them a visit. Excellent food and restaurant is very clean. No complaints at all. Always a wonderful experience. Keep up the good food. See you soon.

Always receive friendly service at this restaurant whether for a sit down meal or a takeout. Their tandoori chicken is tender and the Naan breads are divine. They also have a wide range of vegetarian dishes.

I've been there multiple times and all the dishes I've had (mostly chicken and lamb) had been really great in terms of taste. And they make a really nice Butter Naan as well as the Garlic Naan. The service is just average, could work on their customer interaction skills.

A welcome fit for a King, by owners and staff. The meals were promptly served , tantalizing our palates, as we tasted authentic Indian cuisine. Our waiter was ever present, ensuring we were enjoying our meal. All in all, this was a good experience.

I'm from Durban land of the best bunny chows. And I can tell the lamb bunny I had from Banjaara was nothing less than on par with some of the best bunny's I've had in Durban.
