Stumbled upon this gem of a place via google and glad one review said “don’t let the front of “The place fool you”. And was excellent. Great food made when ordered and family run. Will be back for sure

I had a lovely experience at Matagali. Nathan is the best. The food was delicious, and the staff were welcoming and attentive. Cozy atmosphere and fair prices. Definitely worth a visit!

I really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and exceptional service. I started with the Finger Paneer as an appetizer. It was delicious and full of flavor. For the mains, I had the Palak Paneer and Yellow Curry Chicken, both of which were flavorful and absolutely delicious. I also ordered a side of rice, naan bread, and a salad, which all complemented the meal perfectly.
Most importantly, the service was outstanding. The owner personally ensured we were well taken...
