Taste of India Melbourne

Stellar service ALWAYS! Love this spot!

As a vegetarian 🌱, finding a restaurant that truly caters to flavorful, satisfying, and well-prepared plant-based dishes can be a challenge, but Taste of India absolutely delivers.

I recently had the pleasure of trying their Vegetarian Kondapur and Malai Kofta, and both dishes were nothing short of exceptional. The Vegetarian Kondapur had a wonderful balance of spices and a rich, aromatic gravy that paired perfectly with naan or rice. The vegetables were fresh, and the flavors truly stood out.

The Malai Kofta was equally impressive—soft, creamy, and delicately spiced dumplings served in a luscious, mildly sweet sauce that melted in the mouth. It’s one of the best versions of this classic dish I’ve had outside of India.

The ambiance was warm, the service was attentive, and the menu offered a great variety of vegetarian options. Whether you're a vegetarian or just exploring more plant-based meals, I highly recommend Taste of India. It's a place where flavor meets authenticity.

Thank you for another amazing group dinner. We always appreciate you welcoming us. Great food and service no matter how many people we bring. This time was 23! See you soon!

One of our favorite restaurants in the area. Everything here is incredible. It's a great spot to bring friends and let them experience the flavors too. Highly recommended!

Unbelievable
Every bite
It’s laughable that this place is rated anything lower than 5stars
If you don’t like Indian food then don’t eat here and don’t bring their rating down lol

The butter chicken plus a garlic naan and a mango lassi is a perfect meal
Wonderful kind friendly attentive staff is constantly checking on you and making sure your experience is fantastic

This is our favorite spot for Indian in Melby
Unbeatable
Delicious food if I could give it 10 stars I would

### Restaurant Review: Taste of India

I recently dined at Taste of India, an authentic yet unassuming Indian restaurant. The experience had its highs and lows, but the staff undoubtedly stood out as the best part of my visit. They were incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome throughout the meal.

#### Pros:
- **Excellent Staff**: Friendly and attentive, making the dining experience more pleasant.
- **Extensive Menu**: A wide variety of options, including many vegan and vegetarian dishes.

#### Cons:
- **Chicken Makhani**: Unfortunately, this dish was a letdown. The chicken was too tough, and the sauce, while flavorful, lacked the desired level of spiciness.
- **Indian Bread and Dips**: A nice touch, but the plain naan was over-puffed and ended up being too crunchy rather than soft.
- **Rice Pudding Dessert**: Had a pleasant cardamom flavor, but lacked creaminess, and the rice was undercooked.

While there were some positive aspects, the shortcomings in the food quality mean I won't be returning. Overall, I hope Taste of India can address these issues, as the potential for a great dining experience is definitely there.

I loved the Chana masala extra spicy with garlic Naan. It was super tasty and flavorful. I will definitely lbe ordering again.

Indian food is hard to find, but this place packs a punch with great flavors and specials!

The Naan here is great and the mixed grill sampler is a great item to get when trying out the menu!

The flavor of the curry is top notch and they bring the heat, but the mild options were a perfect amount of flavor and heat!
