My daughter and I are Indian food "officiaonados" and we were there at the free lunch too! And we have been back since and will keep coming! - The staff are so friendly, helpful and courteous! The food is ALWAYS freshly made and absolutely delicious! The flavour is full of the true flavours of the wonderful spices of India- which are beautifuly blended and REALLY come through!- So this place is very aptly named! I don't care where you live- it is worth the trip to go there!! And it's right across the car park and down the road to the left, and up the car park on the other side, outside of the shopping centre, (only less than 5 mins walk!) from Bayswater railway station! There are some excellent Indian restaurants around Melbourne, and especialy in the east, but NOWHERE will you find TOP restaurant quality Indian food at $10 for three serves of curries of your choice from the wide menu, plus light, fluffy saffron rice and freshly made naan! - OR $15 for the same PLUS a large Mango Lassie drink and gulub desert! Their menu proices are lower than other restaurants too! The decor is 'cafeteria style, ' but crisp and clean, although the interiour space is not very big. They do great takeaway, too and they open from 12- 2.30-ish for lunch and again from 5.- 10pm for dinner , including weekends, and we will definitely keep coming back! And anyone who says this is not GREAT food, either doesn't know good Indian', or has killed ther taste buds off, on rubbish! THANKYOU for the wonderful...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreCame here for lunch at 1130hrs on Thursday. Place was empty then but started filling up closer to 12pm. It was never fully packed (few vacant tables) because a lot did takeaway.
We had the $13.50 lunch set which gives 3 curries, naan and rice. There were more lunch options with gulab jamun and/or lassi. We just got the cheapest. There were six curries available so we just went 3 each, if I remember correctly, there was butter chicken, curry chicken, lamb rogan josh, stir fried cabbage, eggplant curry and paneer curry. Food was really good and filling! Staff were friendly. The curry was mild I would say.
