Three star because the ambience only..but for food quality one star * If you have kids with you this place is awesome for the kids.Manager Roshan is good aways ready to serve his best. But the quality of food is absolutely pathetic. I had buffet Dinner not even a single dish was good/tasty. Below average food.

A lovely and ambient place for a variety of Indian cuisines. Friendly and courteous staff. They have an amazing place for kids to play with a variety of games. A good selection of dishes. Sometimes parking can be limited.

Went for the comedy club, stayed for the chicken lollipops. The comedy took its time to pick up, felt uncomfortable at times on the audience interactions. Definitely stay in the back if you do not like to be put on the spot or share your personal life. I also feel like they should have a table sign that says, OK to interact with me or Do not look at me.Back to the chicken and calamari ordered, I had the chicken lollipops that made me think of it 24hrs later, only complains is it was pricey. Dont take Calamari but was told it was tasty.

A gem! Hidden in a secluded garden, shaded by huge trees, this unpretentious open air restaurant offers delicious, authentic indian food, with a fast and friendly service. Its clean, quiet and welcoming,No frills here, just good food, in generous portions. I recommend the cheese naan, oozing with cheese and served piping hot, roganjosh was also delicious, basmati rice fluffy to perfection.They also serve a very decent fresh lime juice, perfect for those hot days.Waiters went out of their way to accommodate our requests and spoke very good English.Visa, Mastercard and other cards can be used.There is a big playground under the trees, and the car park has enough shade too.Prices are soft, and one really feels that there is value for money here.Service is very fast, so even if you are pressed for time, I can highly recommend this place.

Very good Masala Mutton Indian food brilliant! with crispy garlic naam yummy! Wouldnt order anything Asian there as the Sweet & Sour chicken was absolutely terrible with poor quality chicken and zero taste/spiceness, waterey sauce direct from a can.(The service is impeccable and the place clean and well taken care of.

Indian Food Heaven in DAR El Salam. It was really good. Seldom I have tasted such good Indian Food outside of India. We had a variety of dishes and breads and all tasty and real fun to eat. The Paneer in spinach or black lentils, the roti and naan, the butter chicken or chicken marsala... All tasty with the right amount of spiciness and delightful to eat. Lately they have made some renovation and the place is still not the most attractive, but its better than before. Service was attentive and without long waiting times. I have come to Flames now several times and have never honestly been let down. Its worth a go and repeat and repeat.

Food is just average. Ordered mutton kheema and there was a small bug in there so had to send back. Then we ordered mutton Rogan Josh- below average in taste. Chicken Tikka, that was fine. Though the restaurant discounted our bill by 10% and also apologized, but a honest review is what counts. Khana khazana restaurant in the same area is much better.

Great environment. If you like salty fries...thats your place. Their 🍕 is also good.Watch our for the Peri Peri deep fries chicken if you arent certain of your tolerance...it was actually spicy! I suggest you order it with a creamy sauce or a chutney to balance the spiciness and add moisture to it.

The area is spacious for children to play, there is an indoor and outdoor area for having your meal. Love the food, very tasty but I’m not sure whether it’s halal or not. They serve alcohol as well, they have a projector on to broadcast any football/cricket games which is a plus point. Staff are friendly and food is top notch. Love it.

Ordered a delivery through piki app last night. Even though, the delivery took much longer than anticipated, it was definitely worth the wait.We had, veg fried rice, butter chicken, naan and garlic bread.All the food was fresh and delicious. Theyve managed to maintain consistency in taste. I especially loved the butter chicken with the garlic bread.Definitely interested in trying out more meals from their menu that has a large variety of options from all different categories.

Great Indian food. The place is spacious and open, so youll always find a table. You definitely have to try their Kaju Paneer Pasanda (its to die for), and they have many other awesome vegetarian options. Their naan is delicious and the chunks of paneer are massive. If you are ordering from Piki, they just started delivering in clay pots for TZS 2000 which is absolutely amazing. Less plastic and you get to keep cute little clay pots for very little money. Definitely recommend Flames.

Indian restaurant... Good place for a Indian meal, in the open... Its mostly an outdoor restaurant. Big play area for the kids is also available... However dont pay in US$ or any foreign currency... They will give you the worst rate possible. The owner used to be there a lot but the past few times I have been I have not seen him... Overall a good Indian restaurant.

A restaurant that has an outdoor setup. The menu is an Indian menu and the sitting arrangement is good. There is incompound parking. A childrens playground is there. A great place to host a birthday party and their menu is decently priced and very tasty. Starters took awhile to arrive but the main course didnt. Would definitely visit and have the tandoori chicken again #indianfood #bbq #outdoorsitting
