Pukka’s menu is a collection of classic Indian dishes and new, innovative choices with an aim to serve fresh flavours. Dishes range from traditional to fusion, such as Steak Vindaloo, Gunpowder Prawns, Chicken Tikka Masala and Stuffed Paneer (grilled cheese dish).
If you are craving something fancy to start with, try the eggplant tartare ($8). It consists of a creamy, well-seasoned puree that comes with a crispy pastry on the side. This is a light starter that will intrigue your taste buds and prepare you for the next course.

For the entree, you have to get their butter chicken ($23). It is a creamy and spicy dish that goes down well with rice. You will be wanting more of this deliciously saucy chicken. It comes well portioned in a metal pot, which makes it even more appealing. If you have extra sauce, you can even dip it with some garlic naan.

For vegetarians, they also offer pumpkin curry, which is served with garam masala roasted squash, and coconut stew. The curry has a rich flavour and if you love the flavours of pumpkin, this dish will not disappoint. You can get this dish as a side ($14) or as a full portion ($17).

For dessert, you can’t miss the rice pudding with pistachio biscotti ($5). It has a satisfyingly creamy texture and the chopped nuts add another layer of flavour. Their mango lassi is also a great way to end the meal. It is creamy and refreshing with a light mango flavour.
