Best Indian restaurants in Sydney

Share

Hi all,

There are SO many Indian restaurants in Sydney, but many of them are quite ordinary with a few exceptions, fortunately!

The following are my favorites, along with what I like there -

Raavi's Cumin, Crows Nest (Kashmiri Naan - Yummmm, Saagwala Lamb, Paneer Makhani, Malai Kofta)

Nilgiris, St. Leonards (Very dynamic menu, but Dosas are the best!)

Raavi's and Nilgiris are in a league of their own, btw!

Kammadhenu, Newtown and Neutral Bay (Huge selection of Dosas - not as good as Nilgiris but worth a shot if in that area). I'd stay stick to the Dosas, Roti Chinai, and Kotthu Paratha if you go there.

Faheem's, Newtown. For the BEST tandoori chicken (and unfortunately the not-so-good curries) go to Faheem's. Just stick to the tandoori stuff including meat and naans and you'll be all right. If you come back without trying the Tandoori Fish (quite hard to make because fish is very delicate as opposed to chicken so Tandoor-cooking it takes *some* skill)

Billus, Harris Park, Epping (Entrees including Samosas, Tikkas and sweets). Unfortunately, service needs much improvement. So order early and bring some Sudoku along.

Finally, I've heard only good things about Maya's Dhaaba, Surry Hills. Will probably go and try it out soon.

P.S. Please feel free to leave YOUR favorite restaurant as a comment!

Great, now I am hungry!
