Thar Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in Sydney

This is probably the best Indian Restaurant in Sydney. They’ve got amazing food made by the head chef who’s also the owner of the restaurant Sunil Bhai. He makes sure that the food is top quality and scrumptious. They accept all kinds of requests and make sure you have a wonderful experience while dining in the restaurant.

The customer service is next level as well! Shika ma’am, Daksh, Amit Bhai, Xavier, Elliot, Tom and Bella are absolutely amazing hosts! Make sure you ask them for their suggestions on what to order. They’ll serve you some Pappadums with mint sauce and drinks while your food is being prepared so that you can have some appetisers in case you’re really hungry.

The food has four spice levels from mild, medium, hot and spicy. It’ll be prepared to your liking. Because of this variation in spice level, we get a lot of variety to try and don’t have to settle for butter chicken every time, which is also the best I’ve had in the restaurant.

Here are some recommendations in case you’re visiting the restaurant for the first time-

Entrees: Go for the Veg or Non Veg Platters. They’ll give you a taste of almost every entree on the menu from which you can decide which one you like the best.

Veg Curries: Palak Paneer and Veg Jalfrezi

Chicken Curries: Chicken Chettinad and Jeera Rice is a combo that you must try! They use curry leaves to give the curry an authentic Indian taste, and having it with Jeera Rice is just a next level experience. Take my word, you won’t be disappointed!

Also try Bhuna Chicken Tikka Masala which is a semi dry curry that goes really well with cheese and garlic naan. Another combo you must must must try!

Beef Curry: Go for Bombay Beef. The Beef is well cooked and the curry itself has so much flavour in it. They also add potatoes which makes it even more delicious. Don’t miss out on this one!

Lamb Curry: You must try Balti Lamb without any second thought. The chef makes it really good. The lamb pieces are so tender that they almost melt in your mouth.

Fish Curries: Now, I’m not a big fan of sea food, but when I tried their Goa curries, I just fell in love with the taste. Try the Goa Fish Curry or the Goa Prawn Curry.

Take some condiments on the side for extra flavour, try the mixed pickle and cucumber raita. It goes really well with the curries.

This is a restaurant you wouldn’t want to miss out on.

We dined here last week, and the experience was truly unforgettable. The food, the atmosphere, and the hospitality made it a standout moment during our time in Sydney. The manager and staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, providing top-notch service that made us feel right at home.

The Indian cuisine was exceptional—some of the best we've had in a long time since leaving our home state in Perth, WA. The restaurant was clean, well-maintained, and had a cozy, inviting ambiance. As the evening progressed, the place quickly filled up, clearly a go-to spot for authentic North Indian cuisine after dark.

The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality and flavor of the dishes. We indulged in butter chicken, butter and garlic naan, lamb biryani, and more—each bite was rich, flavorful, and utterly mouthwatering.

Overall, it was a memorable dining experience that we’d happily revisit. If you're in Sydney and craving outstanding Indian food, I highly recommend this...
