"Minnie Gaundar never forgets a customer. She is an amazing and charming bundle of Fijian Indian energy and it is she, rather than the restaurant, that is constantly recommended. Ramas is a rather out of the way Indian restaurant with extraordinarily bright decor. The food is good, very reasonably priced and, rare as rare, it's a BYO that doesn't charge corkage - what a winner!"

"Rama's is the pride of Woden Valley the first of Canberra's satellite towns. This terrifically welcoming local curry house sits in a shopping precinct in suburban Pearce and packs them in just about every night. It succeeds because the food is honest, satisfying and at times intriguing, while the hostess, Mini Gaundar, wears hospitality like a vibrantly woven shawl."

“Those who like it hot will love Rama’s, and those who take the milder road can also do so in this warm and friendly space, deep in the heart of Pearce. From the moment you step inside the red room to be greeted by owner Minnie Gaunder, to the last spoon of Kulfi before retiring for the evening, your tastebuds will tingle and then be soothed by the offerings of Rama’s.”
Canberra Times October 2003

“Early booking is a must, as it seems to be full every night. It is very loved by the locals, and many travel much further. The menu offers plenty of choice, including drinks and desserts. If you have any questions or problems, Minnie is always there smiling and caring for everyone. At Rama’s they do not stint on staff. The result? Good service … “
