Have never had a bad experience with the food from Rajdhani. Service is super fast and friendly, the garlic cheese naan is to die for and we had the Mango Chicken & Navaratan with rice. Very tasty and tender chicken. The decor is pleasantly on theme though maybe a little tired by now. Tables were clean but the floor was filmy.

Had a luncheon with a large group.
The food was delicious. I had the salmon and would definitely recommend it. Meals sizes were good.
The staff were friendly and helpful. We were able to split the bill. The view from the restaurant is breathtakingly beautiful. Mains were about $36 to $45. Entrees were about $20.

I ordered butter chicken and garlic naan Delivery.
The naan bread was burnt and the chicken was chewy and tasted funny.
The Delivery was almost 40 mins late (on top of the hour it estimated for delivery)
Had a few bites and chucked the rest out.
Won’t be ordering from there again.

A warm and helpful greeting. We felt booked and wanted.
Outstanding mixed entree dish, Texture, taste and flavour all very good
The main courses were unusual in taste to us but nevertheless good. But not outstanding.
Efficient and cheery service and a courteous goodbye at the door.
An all round pleasant experience.
The restaurant was full on arrival at 6.45 and empty when we left at 8.30.

A Wednesday evening, restaurant not crowded. Plenty of tables to choose from early in evening. Friendly and efficient service. Delicious mixed entree.

8. ReviveR
Overall Ratings

There was a time when going out meant connecting with friends, chatting and relaxing. Enjoying a good drink and great food. It was about people enjoying the company of others. We believe this tradition should be restored. ReviveR has been created around this belief. We have created a space that allows for you to chat with your friends, to connect, to relax, and enjoy their company. No screens, no pokies, just people connecting. Come give us a try and see if it works for you.

Translates as "great food, fabulous service". I should have just written it that way, but I would be doing L'isle de France a great disservice. It sounds so divine in French.
We enjoyed a family birthday dinner here on a beautifully clear and cool Friday evening. Arrived on time and was surprised to see so many waiters, yet so few patrons. At 7pm, one would expect a restaurant to be in full swing. However, I think this is more an indication of the current economic climate on the Central Coast than anything else, but it was to our benefit, as the staff to diner ratio meant we were never without attention. When things got busy later on, there still seemed to be at least 2 waiters serving our table.
L'isle de France is located over the bend on Terrigal Drive. It has a spectacular view over Terrigal Beach, however there is the initial stages of construction on a neighboring lot next door that may eventually steal a portion of the 180 degree Panorama. If you're driving, it may help to borrow your kid's Barina as there is a tiny but convenient parking lot directly under the restaurant. Terrigal CBD is not well regarded for public parking, so this was a huge relief for us.
Our delightful waiter introduced himself and poured us a glass of water with great aplomb. He made cordial conversation, before taking our drinks order - then swiftly returned with our beverages. After everyone had arrived and was seated, we were given a brief introduction to the menu and pricing. There is a very reasonable $55 per person for a 2 course meal, which we partook as our party host had brought their own cake for dessert. There is also a 3 course option for a modest upgrade in price. Sunday's and Public Holidays attract a further surcharge.
The restaurant is very well appointed with large spaces between tables, a comprehensive cellar and some very beautiful artworks. A large balcony hosts more tables with a better view, but you are subject to the Terrigal Doctor (evening onshore breeze) and it may get a little uncomfortable in the cooler months. We had a long buffet table just inside the door, which provided enough fresh air to make our night very pleasant.
Starters included a small but delicious prawn in a creamy garlic sauce, which was just beautiful. It's a pet peeve of mine, but I do hate when prawns are served in their tail shells. It may look gorgeous, but prawns are not big and although I could have easily picked it up and chewed the tail, it is just not the done thing. So, I did the best I could with my utensils and spent the rest of the entree service, gazing longingly at that untouchable prawn meat.
Husband had the crab cakes. He said they were very nice, but he detected more unidentified seafood (possibly tuna) as the dominant flavor. Plating was very pretty for every dish that was presented and our mains were just such substantial servings, that I barely had room for dessert. My chicken supreme with garden vegetables was cooked perfectly. Hint: ask for a jus or sauce as I'm sure it would send it to the next level. Husband's lamb was a triumph and the Chef's recommendation for medium rare was spot on.
Our drink's host was a true Frenchman and his delicious accent made the experience so authentic. He ensured our glasses were never empty, and he stopped by often for a quick chat. Towards the end of the night, when most diners had left - staff noticed the 3 children in our party were getting a little tired and restless. So they changed the French music to a Wiggles repertoire and Voila! Three little kiddies were mesmerized and some very grateful grownups had a few more precious minutes to enjoy their last drinks.
This is where many restaurants drop the ball. It's one thing to enjoy great food. But when it's complimented with such attentive and genuine service - you will remember your evening long after you've forgotten the bill.
A very enjoyable meal in a commanding seaside precinct.
French dining magnifique!
