    I've never been a huge fan of Indian cuisine, and my last experience at Billus, didn't redeem Indian food for me.
    A group of girlfriends and I went out for dinner. The booking was made for 8pm, and don't let the stereotype mislead you: we turned up on time. However, the restaurant was booked out and we were told we'd have to wait. Fine, we thought, 15minutes is not that long.
    Half an hour later, we were seated at a table that was covered in another diner's remnants of naan and butter chicken, and what looked like mango lassi. We ordered entrees and mains and by 9.20 were still waiting on our Samosas. Almost an hour later we were served our two meat curries and the entrees, without both our biryani rice or an apology.
    After 10minutes of picking at the curries, and wondering whether we should leave, we were brought our rice.
    This place could be half decent if the staff picked up their game and the food was a little more authentic.
    Hopefully there are better Indian eateries out there, but this is one to avoid.

    The atmosphere is akin to a real dhaba. It's loud and the tiles and walls make noises echo quite a bit. It's nicer outside during summer. The food is good and service is prompt once you line up and place your order. Their sets selection is also pretty good although some of them do tend to be tasteless. try the tandoori chicken with some garlic naan. Goes great with a cold beer.

    The food is okay. some recipies are good as compared to others. Biryani was not as good as expected. they dont have a function hall inside the restaurant - they have one outside which does not serve the purpose if it is cold. the staff is friendly and helpful though.

    Good and cheap Indian food. The gulab-jamoon's are the best, you should try it. Good for quick and cheap Indian food, not so much for a proper restaurant type experience.

    Snacks and sweets glittering with silver leaf and lots of sugar.

    Sydney's Little Indias are many and varied, from Liverpool's Fiji-influenced streets to the finer diners of the Hills district and the bargain eats of Harris Park. Dozing in the shadows of Parramatta's high-rises across the railway line, the weatherboard cottages of Wigram Street house a perfumed string of tidily stocked spice shops, spangly sari stores and casual eateries; at least six at last count. The theme is snacks and sweets, predominantly vegetarian, served in large dining rooms hidden behind cottage doorways. At one end of the strip, Billu's is typical, lined with a shiny all-singing-all-dancing sweet counter, glittering with silver leaf, fluoro colours and lots of sugar. Ease your way towards dessert with a thali platter (pictured, $12.90), either veg or "non-veg", laced with southern-style tamarind sourness or north Indian-Punjabi yoghurt creaminess. A ring of bright, stainless steel bowls on a round steel platter sets out a progression of spicy-sauced dishes, ma...
