Curry Workz is an Indian restaurant at 92 Main Street in Upper Hutt Central, on the main retail strip of Upper Hutt's town centre and within easy reach of the railway station and the wider Hutt Valley. It is a suburban dine-in and takeaway restaurant rather than a dedicated function venue, and it holds a Google rating of 4.5.
### Cuisine
The kitchen works across regional Indian cooking, with a tandoor at the centre of the offer. The menu is grouped into vegetarian, non-vegetarian and seafood entrees, tandoori dishes, breads, curries, and rice and biryani, alongside an Indo-Chinese section. Dishes listed by the restaurant include paneer aloo tikki, goat biryani, paneer kulcha and fish tikka, with biryani served with raita and poppadum. Separate dine-in, lunch and takeaway menus are published, so the lunch offer is priced and structured differently from the evening carte.
### The space and service
Curry Workz serves lunch Monday to Sunday from 11.00am to 2.00pm and dinner Monday to Sunday from 4.00pm to 9.30pm, which gives it broader midday coverage than many Indian restaurants in the valley. Online ordering with scheduled pickup times is available, and tables can be booked through the website.
### Groups and events
The restaurant maintains a dedicated events page and states that it takes bookings for birthdays, weddings, parties and other celebrations, with a callback enquiry form for event requests; a discount on event bookings is advertised on that page. Beyond this, the site does not publish room capacities, private dining areas, set banquet menus or off-site catering terms, so groups should confirm numbers, exclusive-use options and any group menu directly with the restaurant.
### Suitability for group dining
For MICE purposes, Curry Workz suits informal team dinners, small delegate meals and post-conference groups looking for Indian food in Upper Hutt, particularly where a relaxed setting and a straightforward booked group menu are wanted rather than a formal private room. Its extended lunch service also makes it a practical option for daytime group dining for meetings held in the Upper Hutt area. Organisers requiring dedicated function rooms or contracted banquet catering should compare it with purpose-built Wellington venues.
