Absolutely fantastic place for a lovely meal. Been a few times now and keep going back. Staff are outstanding and really know the meaning of customer service. Food is Devine. A definite must if you are looking for a great Indian meal. Note, it pays to book as they are always busy.

We have been there a number of times, and love the atmosphere, food and staff are terrific. Our friends were over from overseas so we took them to India today. They so enjoyed , and were amazed with great service also. My friends husband forgot his glasses, and one staff member was amazing and offered some glasses so that he could read the menu. Nothing was a problem and the food was 10 out of 10 yet again we will be back 100%.

Hugely disappointing – selected the place after reading reviews – best I can put was the breads were good. The three curries we ordered were all extremely bland in taste – the food made me think I was in a “Punjabi McDonald’s” – if you think McDonald’s are authentic hamburgers! When will Indian restaurants serve up Indian food and not the rubbish that they think people want to eat (though by the reviews below people obviously like it though they are missing so much in Indian food if they like this one)

We eat at India Today on a regular basis and we have always had the most amazing meal. The staff are helpful, polite and really friendly (not so much so that you feel they are standing over you all the time). they really couldn’t do more for you. My husband recently had to wait a little while for the take out and was given a complimentary drink. Those things make a huge difference to your experience. Coming from the UK the ambiance is a huge part of a meal and decor and atmosphere here never lets you down. We would recommend India Today to anyone.

We also have been trying to find a great Indian restaurant in Tauranga. So was very glad when this one opened. Love the food, friendly service & even when they were extremely busy one night that waitress gave our table complimentary drinks. ( although we never complained about service because we knew they were extremely busy & the atmosphere is so lovely you don’t mind having to wait a little longer especially when the food is worth waiting for. We also are regular diners & love it. Eat, drink & enjoy the atmosphere without feeling like you are being rushed out the door.

India Today is the best Indian restaurant in Tauranga – authentic food from regional India, knowledgeable and highly professional Indian staff who can’t do enough for diners.
My table was moved solicitously when I asked about a slight draft, and a minor suggestion that one (ultra-western) diner’s dish was a wee bit hotter than expected was met with an immediate offer to replace it.
But most importantly, if you really like REAL Indian food, this is where you’ll find it.

I hace recommended it to everyone already and no one has been disappointed.

Have been here twice really nice environment, staff are very welcoming. Food is good – nice poppadoms while you wait, curries were good not the best I’ve had but the atmosphere makes up for it making it an enjoyable might out.

We have become regular diners at India Today and have had nothing but great food and experienced fantastic faultless service.
Lovely warm environment and nothing is ever an issue even if you turn up relatively late in the evening you still get the same reception.
Highly recommend trying this restaurant out!

First impression of this restaurant is the warm ambience. It is tastefully decorated to the authentic theme of India. We were greeted at the door and were seated at a beautiful table. The waitresses and waiter looked after us very well.
The food was the best Indian I have ever tasted (apart from Geetika’s and Nitin’s) and very reasonably priced. The place was full, but it wasn’t loud – low level hum.
Will definitely be back. Was a real treat.

Agree with other reviews, it’s great.
Warm surroundings on a cold night, great decor & friendly helpful service.
Add to that nice food with a hot order arriving with plenty of heat for this kiwi, just as i like it.
Very tasty all round !

Absolutely Delicious! Great atmosphere and the service is exceptional. Also very good value for money. One of the better restaurants on the stand in Tauranga. We’ll be back next time we’re down from Auckland.

We LOVE this place… by far the most authentic Indian in Tauranga and probably has the best ambience and service we’ve experienced in a long time. We’ve swung by after to work to pick up entrees and naans to go with curry made at home and they’re so filling we’ve nearly abandoned the main course. We’ve also taken rellies and overseas guests for dinner there and they’ve gone and raved about India Today to their friends too…best advertising is word of mouth!!

Not only is the food delicious, they have the best service in town! The staff are really nice and friendly, we’ve only been in there several times but we already get treated like we are old friends. The restaurant offers dairy and gluten free dishes. I am a vegan and they have plenty of options for me. I normally get Aloo Gobi which is delicious.
