Order Sri Lankan Food in Melrose Park

My friend and were on the hunt for a spot to have a non-alcoholic beverage on Karangahape Road after work on a Friday night and we came across this café which was just up the road from his office so good location in this regard. Really liked that they opened late too as there aren't a lot of cafés that open late in the city. I think it was the owner who took our order - she was really nice. I had the chocolate brownie and to drink the passion and mango tea (NZD9.50c). Really liked the fruit tea I had and I'd order it again for sure. The brownie was a bit dry but the short bread biscuit with lemon icing was really good so I'll order this next time. Looking forward to trying out the other fruit teas and milk teas on offer! Indoor seating available and there are treats in the cabinet to order with your drink. Also possible to order drinks via their website.

A small food place in the neighbourhood of Flat Bush. Serves nice steamed buns and hot soy milk. Price is reasonable and portion is decent. The guy at the counter is super friendly too!

Visited with an elderly friend in a wheelchair. The staff were accommodating to his food order, helpful in getting us an accessible table, kind & friendly. The food was quick to come fresh from the kitchen & was exactly what he wanted. Despite being busy the staff didn't rush my friend at the counter & payment point so he didn't feel like he was an inconvenience. The price was very reasonable & I've already recommended this place to others.

The food was delicious but the quantity was quite disappointing for the prices. Tables, cutlery, glasses were very clean and faultless. Very chilled tap water was also a plus. The timing and sequence for the delivery of the main dishes were unsatisfactory, though. It just took too long even when the restaurant was almost empty and didn’t seem to have many take-away orders, either. Service over all was nothing special. I wouldn’t go back.

I recently tried Ajay’s after my Dad was recommended them by his neighbour & they’ve become my go to pizza place. I usually order the Margherita & a Garlic Cheese Pizza with Dad opting for his Mexicana. The dough is incredible & appeared to be made from scratch. I appreciate that they also use quality ingredients as well. It’s also a family owned business & they make you feel so welcome when you go in to order. Honestly give Ajay’s a go & support a quality local business.

The food impressed us with every bite! An evening to remember—delicious and authentic cuisine, impeccable quality, and exceptionally friendly service!
