Dinner menu

with a passion for india and indian food, indigo is a fusion of ideas from the three proud owners nichola, paul and kamlesh having visited india over 35 times and dining in many excellent indian restaurants in england, paul and nichola felt something was missing in hawke’s bay, so they teamed up with long time friend and professional chef, kamleshwar to form indigo what sets indigo apart from other indian restaurants is the contemporary front of house, fine dining service levels, the use of fresh local ingredients, local wines, an extensive whisky collection and a traditional charcoal tandoor to create great authentic flavours all our dishes are cooked fresh to order and we never compromise on quality, offering a range of traditional and unique dishes, constantly offering our guests new experiences and tastes this is why we believe there is no other indian restaurant like indigo in new zealand WE BELIEVE IN ONLY USING THE FRESHEST LOCAL INGREDIENTS SPICY LAMB CHOPS

HEAD CHEF KAMLESHWAR PRASAD chef kamlesh brings a wealth of knowledge and authentic indian training to indigo after spending years working in five star hotels under some of the best chefs in india in 2005 kamlesh escaped the world’s second most populated country, to bring his passion of cooking to new zealand he started working in a number of excellent indian restaurants and fell in love with hawke’s bay’s abundant fresh local produce it’s kamleshs’ simple philosophy which sets indigo apart “to cook each dish to order using the highest quality and freshest local ingredients ensuring the taste and variety of flavours and spices are clearly evident in every dish”
