Jinnah's Tandoori & Seafood Restaurant

Rude service for expensive average food. Menu was taken away from my son's hands because he might "break" it. Made to feel uncomfortable throughout the meal. Food reheated in microwave. Very average lassi cost $7. We were the only people at 7:30 on a Saturday night; now I know why. Had better take-away at half the price.

I have dined at Jinnas a number of times and truly appreciate the kitsch surrounds and the food aint too bad either. My criticism has to do with the treatment of customers and staff by senior staff. The first time we dined there, being the only customers, and in the original restaurant on the ground floor, we were told we must sit at the first table.

There are a few things I miss about having moved from Dulwich Hill to Gunnedah, and one of them is definitely Jinnah Pakistani restaurant. We had many great meals here over the years, and always loved introducing friends to it. I hope it still offers the same range and value as before - when I'm next in Sydney for a few days, I'll make a point of eating here again.

All curries are served on little burners which keeps the food hot which is very thoughtful. We were quite overwhelmed with the extensive menu, which I may add is tastefully presented as a newspaper.

Prices for curries range from around $14.90 (Butter Chicken) to around $25 (seafood curry). The curries are delicious, you couldn't fault the food or the rich flavours. However we found $25.90 for a very modest serve of seafood very overpriced. Stick to the

cheaper curries, try the daal khushbudar

and enjoy the ambience of this unique Pakistani eatery.
