I approached Satkar to prepare food for a wedding (100 guests). We were requested to pick up early on the date of the wedding to ensure it is fresh. On the menu was chicken Biryani. Lamb Korma, Rice, Naan and Roti. On the Saturday Satkar was ready with our food and the guests really thought it was amazing. I was able to cater for a very reasonable price and still deliver a good and tasty experience.Thank you for your great service and great food.
Absolutely amazing food. Always use orderIn and Uber Eats. Recently went to sit down for a first time and did not disappoint. Romeo our waiter was swift and friendly also extremely helpful and every dish we ordered (Chicken Curry, Butter Chicken, Chicken Korma, Chicken Tikka) was exactly as asked and beautifully spiced and flavoured. Will always recommend this place.
Authentic Indian curry and dessert (not all sweet ;-) that have not disappointed in all the years I've been!
Bizarrely they don't serve coffee, but have a good choice of wine. Food prepared to perfection and served fairly fast!

If you want great Indian cuisine, this is the place to go. Their lamb and chicken dishes are to kill for. Their Naan breads a good size and tasty too!
We ordered take aways from here after reading the reviews and it was average. We order chicken lollipops and butter chicken (medium) as well as garlic naan. The garlic on the naan was quite raw, which gave it an overwhelming garlic taste. The butter chicken was HOT and super spicy, not what I would expect for a medium. Chicken lollipops was good. Despite the above it was still good and is excellent value for money!

Food was really good, had the lamb korma, naan bread and pompadums most definitely worth it, portion size is also very good. Service was friendly. Will come back for sure.
Indian cuisine is one of my favorite.
I've been to a lot of places and this one is really good. Comes really close to the food you get in India.
Great food, great taste. Worth going there!
After staying in the area for years I popped in here for a take-away a while ago. The wait was a little long but that's pretty standard for Indian food and I think you can call ahead to order a take-away.
I had the Aloo matar Gobi and it was great- hot as I had requested yet all the delicious flavours from the curry sauce still came through. We had garlic, and perhawari naan bread- both were great the garlic naan especially. Their bean bunny chow was also quite tasty.
I'm so glad we decided to try Satkar as we were originally a little off put by the outside appearance- don't be! Inside it is warm and inviting with friendly service and delicious food.
The samosas were lovely; the pastry isn't the usual kind but rather a kind of pie crust-type pastry.
My chicken tikka masala with garlic naan was perfectly spicy and a generous portion. My mom's half tandoori chicken was a bit dry but also very tasty.
The food arrived quickly and our waitress was really sweet.
Will definitely be back again soon!
Satkar was born when management took over the old, previously unsuccessful restaurant. They managed to do something special. They transformed this previously boring space into something incredible, in its own right at least.
The best thing about Satkar is the incredible quality of the food, which is married with deep succulent flavours and tastes. I usually go for the butter chicken or the chicken tikka masala. Each time I try and only eat half the serving, but unfortunately my self control very rarely prevails and I end up eating everything in front of me. The Naan is always spectacular. The different between getting take aways or eating there usually rests on how fresh you want the naan to be. And when eating in, ordering more food is always just way to easy.
If you are ever in the mood for Indian, you could not go wrong with Satkar, in fact this could be the best Indian restaurant in Johannesburg
Such great food, very reasonably priced. Recommend their lunch special highly!
I looked online if I can Indian food I have not eaten come to South Africa about 3 weeks I drove 23 km i was the only one they made every thing fresh and I was really happy lovely place for your family and friends or birthday party

We ate the veg platter and tried 2 or 3 different curries including the bunny chow all were really good, flavourful, freshly made and plentiful. The service was great and the beer was cold. If you want wholesome, hearty Indian food this is the place.
I visited the restaurant with my friends, we were delighted by the authentic South Indian starters and main course. The taste is delicious and the service is excellent food served on time with very hot and fresh feels like just having home food at restaurant after a long time..
Thank you Satkar for serving such a wonderful food..
Big shout out to the guys at Satkar! Not only delicious food but great service. My food had turned up split in the bag (please see previous review). They apologized and gave me a new meal on the house. Perfect example of how to turn a bad situation into a great one! Thinks guys.I will absolutely order again.
Satkar Indian Restaurant: We as family visited Satkar Indian Restaurant for Diwali evening. They haa special lights that were lit up in the restaurant including at the entrance. The look and feel is awesome. We were welcome by a happy looking waitresses. We loved the food. The starters was very delicious. On the main course Butter chicken with Naan was very tasty. We loved everything that we ordered. The best north Indian food at very affordable pricing . Loved every bit. Thanks guys.
I have always been impressed with all of the dishes at Satkar, especially the Chicken Korma. More than that, the hosts have gone out of their way to accommodate my friends and myself when dining there on special occasions. Whether a sit- down or take- out, Satkar has never disappointed.
We had a very pleasant experience at Satkar with very good food and excellent service. Both the Lamb Curry as well as the Tandoori Chicken we ordered were delicious. We will be back again!
I've moved up from KZN to JHB, and after trying a few Indian restaurants, it felt like I wasn't going to find something to my taste.
Finally, I came to Satkar, I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. Everyone has their own preference, but I definitely think that you should pop by and try out their food.
I'd recommend the Chicken Vindaloo for the brave.
Satkar Melville's never disappoints with their meals. ALWAYS fresh and Big portions + Friendly staff and Great owner. Best indian food in town.
