Best Contemporary Indian Restaurants in Waurn Ponds

We loved the atmosphere, the service and the food. The restaurant has personality. The food was fresh, well presented and tasted amazing. The dishes offered were in some instances variations on the styles we are used to at our local Indian restaurants. My wife is Coeliac and the manager took the trouble to come to our table to discuss her requirements.

Lentils is the best Indian food we’ve ever had (and we’ve had it a lot) We went for lunch one Sunday and were blown away so we went again for date night. It’s beautiful inside too and the service is amazing.

Honestly, the food here is worth travelling for, and I mean that. We are happy to make the 20 minute drive from a nearby coastal town to eat in or get takeaway the food is that good. A lot of thought has been gone into making and preparing each dish, which gives each one an individual character all of its own. The flavours are immersive and vibrant, with the perfect combination of spices to compliment the base component of each dish, be that meat, seafood or vegetable. The menu is accompanied by an interesting drinks list (which as the name suggests features whisky prominently) includes some interesting wine choices at reasonable prices. Combine all this with a venue accomodating several different spaces, and attentive and welcoming staff, and you have a restaurant with all the things to rival many of Melbourne's best credentialed Indian establishments. Believe me, this place is certainly worth the trip, if only it wasn’t just that bit closer.
