a night in india

my new favourite restaurant. i had such a wonderful time here. it doesn't look much from the outside but it's beautiful on the inside. the waitresses were so attentive, polite and friendly. the drinks were surprisingly cheap for a restaurant ($4 or $5 for the bottled beers and ciders) and the meals were good value too because all thecurriescame with free rice, and thecurriesactually had some substance to them - none of this four pieces of meat drowned in sauce that costs $25 like some indian restaurants. you actually got a lot of food for the price. we also got the garlic naan and roast vegetable naan with two dips - both were absolutely beautiful. ourcurrieswere superb tasting and the spice was just right. we were completely stuffed by the end of it, couldn't even finish the naan orcurriesand we'd only ordered one each. our bill was extremely reasonable and we left feeling very happy and well fed!

we’ve been getting takeaway for a few years now as it’s on the commute home. it is one the best indians in the toowong to kenmore area. thecurriesare tasty, spicy and not bland like a lot of indian around. we tried of the menu and all delicious!

the mild and sweetcurrieswere a lot spicier/hotter than expected, however very nice. the complementary rice was no where near enough and the naan bread portion was also small.

i have had indian cuisine at a lot of places in sydney and brisbane but this was by far the best one.
the little things that they do is what makes this a great experience. on arriving at the restaurant, we were served with complimentary pappadums. the staff knew the menu well and provided their recommendations.
we ordered the chicken lasoon with flat breads. the curry is served with saffron rice which was a complete meal for two as the portion of the curry is satisfactory for two.
they provide different level of spice for thecurriesand we had asked them to make it hot. the curry was as per our request and we loved the meal.
i would highly recommend this place for anyone who likes indian cuisine.

fantastic food and very fast service. the interior of the restaurant is quite dated but the quality of the food definitely makes up for it!

we ordered the dhal masala (lentil curry) and alu gobhi (cauliflower and potato curry). thecurriescame with a complimentary side of rice but we also ordered two plain naans.

the dhal masala was particularly delicious and pairs perfectly with naan. definitely a satisfying meal!

a group of 3 of us dined here on a friday night. the service was attentive and the byo costs $2.50pp. we ordered a mild butter chicken (of course), garlic naan, medium lamb meatballs and paneer chenai. all threecurrieswere delicious and rice is included. if you want spice though, our mediums didn't have much to it so i'd recommend starting from hot.

unfortunately for a night in india, it has a moderately unappealing location between a main road, a dingy chinese restaurant and a post office. on the plus side however, it has an impressive menu selection of meat, vegetarian and seafoodcurriesand a range of sides and drinks to match. the service was polite and our food came out quickly; i ordered a lamb pumpkin halva with a cheese and garlic naan and was pleasantly surprised with the result. the curry was smooth and had a full flavour while the naan had a perfect amount of spice, definitely one of the bettercurriesi’ve had. however, at $20 to $25, the prices are a bit steeper than expected for an indian takeaway so one must face the inevitable question of quality versus quantity, with a night in india favouring the former.

if i could i would rate this place zero. the food here is horrible, the worst i've had in brisbane. we ordered paneer curry which was stale and tasteless. tandoori wasn't available so we got some sub-standard breads. we hated the curry and ordered another butter based paneer to which the owner/manager promptly comes out and assures that they have the exact same curry base for all theircurriesand they just make different additions. and that was true to every word. it was the exact same curry with a spoon of butter on top. so we give up after half bread and half of the first curry for which we should have been charged $10. we paid $61 instead. and when we gave our feedback, the owner/manager made no efforts to apologise but instead asked if i was chef and stated that his restaurant is the busiest in brisbane.
horrible! awful! i had mint and lemon juice to change the crap flavours in my mouth. if you want to kill yourself - eat here.

the atmosphere is nice and the service is usually friendly but the food is hit and miss. the food can be really oily sometimes and they are not very consistent on how hot/spicy theircurriesare with i guess the exception being mild as those who i dine with who order mildcurriesdon't usually complain that it is to hot. they are not usually very accommodating either. i recommend a night in india at carindale. although it is owned by the same family. those who run the one at carindale are a lot more accommodating to make you dinning experience lovely and they are also a lot more friendly.

amazing service, kind staff and absolutely delicious food. i had the mushroom sabji last night at a night in india, and my boyfriend had the chicken goan. this was one of the most deliciouscurriesi have ever eaten! the flavours in the mushroom and potato were incredibly delicious. the service from the start of the night to the end was perfect. they checked if our water needed filling, they took away any dirty plates and they were just very lovely people. we ordered our mains, and within 10 minutes we had the meal on our table. we chose a night in india over ceylon inn as we had heard bad things about ceylon inns service, and we're glad we made that choice!
definitely give a night in india a go, absolutely delicious vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals. couldn't be happier!

never again. don't waste your money.. a night in india unfortunately did not meet my expectations, thecurrieswere simply far too sweet and the flavours were unbalanced. the butter chicken tasted like canned tomato soup with an additional 5tbs of sugar. the lamb korma was ok but again unbalanced and far too sweet. upon going to pay i expressed my opinion of the dishes in relation tocurriesi have had elsewhere, i received a rude remark stating that thecurriesare stated as "sweet" and that i should have read the menu. the gentleman appeared to be the owner of the establishment and i was very upset with the manner in which he spoke to me and gave the impression that all he cared about was me paying for my meal. i will never go here again after such terrible customer service, this man truly ruined my night out.

amazing! was walking in toowong after a walk and had to choose from ceyloncurriesor a night in indian and chose a night in indian because it was busy on a monday night! ended up going there two nights in a row. i had the vegetarian pumpkin curry, vegetable samosas, vegetable pakoras and plain nann. the rest of my family had other dishes and loved it.

sadly gone downhill. the first time we went here a few years ago it was amazing - the $35pp all you can eat deal was great and we used to go here often. however they have since changed the deal so that you can only order the same curry you ordered the first time. so if you are planning on eating as much as possible and trying all of the different curries, think again! the deal is only worth it if you go with a large group of people (8 or so) so you can order a variety of differentcurriesto share. i would not recommend going here as a couple as you will not get your moneys worth. the food is good enough but nothing special.

best indian in brisbane. our favourite restaurant in brisbane and also the best indian we've ever had. food, service and atmosphere all exceptional. we have tried lots of the items on the menu and have never been served anything we didn't like. we recommend sampling the entrees, trying some of the less well knowncurriesand goat and of course no meal would be compete without a naan. you won't be disappointed.

great curries. i really love this place. thecurriesare fabulous and the service friendly and fast.
