Fantastic Valentines dinner the best Indian food I have ever eaten,fast friendly service,generous portions but not over the top. Was topped off with a complimentary dessert which was a nice touch for Valentines day. Thank you Sangam staff! was a lovely evening:)

We have been to this place a number of times over the last 3 years and the meals have always been fine. Like all restaurants in holiday locations the service and food can suffer on those days when they get slammed and overrun.

They do takeaways.

best Indian restaurant in Whitianga…. cos’ there aren’t any others.
We;ve lived here for 4 years and most of the time the food is great. However, sometimes it can be a bit off with beef curry that tastes like tasteless, watery beef stew and the massala type sauces can all taste the same.
However, that aside, when it’s good it’s terrific and it’s an excellent place for a night out.
My dodgy beef stew won’t put me off, I just won’t order it again!
The other thing is it is expensive. So take lots of money.

My family and I have been eating at sangam since they opened their doors, every year we go back to whitianga on holiday and sangam is always the place to eat, the food is amazing and consistent, the service is great they always make us feel welcome and we always leave satisfied!!!! GREAT JOB SANGAM

Please avoid at all cost!!

First impressions where wonderful as the initial service was good and the decor was appropriate.

But when I arrived at home with the food I was shocked at the quality.
1. The Naan Bread was burnt, both sides blackened
2. One of the dishes inside the container was filled half with the actual meal and the other half with oil (bout 1-2 cm sitting on top)
3. The other two dishes had no or little taste. Very bland.

Note: We had vegetarian meals.

We rang the manager to tell her about what we had received (We did not shout, say anything abusive or even ask for a refund.) and she answered with
1.We where bias about her food due to being Indian.
2.That they where the best Indian restaurant in New Zealand (NOT IN A LONG SHOT)
3.When we tried to explain that the problems we had, she hanged up.

By this time I wanted to throw what she passed of as food in her face.

As with the service provided above we will never return to this restaurant again. THANKS for RUINING our holidays

great decor – wonderful first impression – but food was very poor. We’ve been eating Indian food for thirty years and that was the worst lamb saag I can recall. Its a wonderful dish, but this was a poor imitation. My wife had the chana masala which was SALTED so intensely that the curried flavour was killed. Maybe the chef had the night off…it can’t always be that bad? Service was average, mainly beacause speed not courtesy was the priority…..lucky they didn’t break a plate as the meals crash landed on our table.
Plenty of room for improvement….

We have been to Sangam on many occasions and have always found the food and the service to be excellent. Well done and many thanks.

We live in Whitianga and have been to Sangam quite a bit. We have always found the food and service to be excellent. Well done for being so consistent.

Have been to this restaurant on main occasions and also frequently get takeaways and have always been very impressed with both the food and the service!! Nothing beats a good curry!!

Coming from the UK that has a curry house virtually on every street corner, I found the Sangam to be the worst experience of my life as far as eating curries goes, I even suggested the poor excuse for a waiter that the meal I ordered came from a packet

What an excellent night!! This must be the best indian cuisine I think i’ve ever tasted. I’d highly recommend this restaurant.

We went to Sangam for my Birthday dinner with a party of 12. We found the service to be fantastic and friendly, the food was divine and the atmosphere was lovely. I would highly recommend Sangam to anyone looking for a great night out at a reasonable price. We’ll be back!!

Chicken Tikka Masala is very delicious. Other curry is all the same, mediocre. The prices are kind of too high for what they are, I think, but it is Whitianga, everybody else price their food rediculously high. I love it as only restaurant with BYO wine allowed, as well. There is no such thing as a great service here, but not terrible experience or anything.

one of the worst exp…wont urge to any one, being served cold food with uneven cooked rice and service was pathetic.
