Top Indian restaurants in South Brisbane, Australia

came back after two years expecting déjà vu, but everything was off, except the water. Felt like I flushed my cash down the toilet. Sorry buddy, but you must've known the meal was a disaster, that's why you didn't bother asking how it was.

What an absolute delight on a cold, rainy day!! And a bonus surprise: $15 lunch including naan, rice and curry of choice 😃 Both of our curries were full bodied and tantalizing to our taste buds. The level of heat (spice) was on-point; medium Tikka Chicken for my adventurous hubby, and mild Mango Chicken for my less-outlandish self. Topped off with a deliciously sweet, yet tangy Mango Laasi to share, our experience was nothing short of 11/10. The fast, efficient service from the impeccable team will see you in & out within 40 mins (if you so choose). Thank you PP Team! 👏

This place is truly authentic Indian. The taste of food takes you back to India from the very first bite. The ambience, the food, the deco, the service and the owner each and every aspect of The Punjabi palace is very much to be appreciated and cherished. Each dish is flavourful and fresh as it can get. True value for your single penny. The owner/host is so accommodating and respectful. There is only much that can be written. You must visit this place of you really want to witness authentic Indian home food outside India and incredible service.

I recently visited Punjabi Palace for a late dinner and had a wonderful experience! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, who were all incredibly friendly and smiling. Their positive energy set the perfect tone for the evening.

We opted for the banquet option at $38 per person, and I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the food arrived at our table. The speed of service was impressive without compromising the quality. We enjoyed three delicious starters, followed by a different curry each, and I must say, everything was tasty and hit the right spot!

However, I did have one small expectation: I thought that for the price, each of us would receive our own naan. Nonetheless, the food was delightful, and I truly appreciated the flavors and authenticity of the dishes.

Overall, I had a fantastic dining experience at Punjabi Palace, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great Indian cuisine in a welcoming atmosphere. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

It was our first time coming in here and we were not disappointed. We ordered Butter chicken, Garlic and cheese naan, chilli cheese naan, samosa, and Jeera rice. And 1 Mango Lassi. Everything was delicious, it was just the two of us but our food serving couldve accomodated 1 more person 🙂. I Highly recommend trying their restaurant!

It's my first time to try Indian food. When I told staff that is my first time, she gave me the best recommend dishes. It was very delicious. They gave the big portion of tasty curry. I really love butter chicken. Also, staffs are very friendly.

The food in the restaurant is SO GOOD with a reasonable portion as well. I ordered the keema lamb curry and the meat is so soft. Highly recommend.

The food was truly and amazingly flavoursome. On first bite the flavours burst out and throughout the meal it develops and leaves you absolutely joyous.

Will absolutely be coming again

I went to Brisbane for 5 days and found this place. As the name suggests, authentic punjabi flavour!! You won’t regret ever once you have amazing and delicious food here. The spices are as per your pallet and food tasted yum.

The staff was friendly and welcoming. Thanks team for the hospitality.

We came to this restaurant after visiting places in mount gravatt over last two weeks. This is an accidental find but nonetheless food was amazing. It tastes authentic Punjabi food.
Owner was very nice and accommodating. We reached closer to the closing time. They accommodated us and provided with excellent service and food.

If you’re looking for some spicy Indian food than this is NOT. The place is fine, no proper air conditioning, washroom is not clean. Service takes ages . I ordered chicken biryani and tandoori chicken as you can see in the pictures, tandoori chicken is too costly and not worth the price $16 for half chicken. Whereas chicken biryani felt like fried rice, who puts spring onions in the biryani ?? 🙄. Overall I won’t recommend this place too pricey and not worth l.

Food is good but the service is really bad, the waitress came without greeting or anything (no other customers in the restaurant at the time we went in). Also placed the dish on table with a rude manner and said “FISH”. We were the first dine-in customer last night but it took more than 45min until we get the curry. I understand it became busier later on but this is way too long just for one curry… Maybe worth trying takeaway only next time.
Naan is tasty just a bit oily though.

Yummy indian food 🌶️🍲 , thought the service definitely struggled. We weren't there in a particularly busy night but our requests were either missed or late for some reason. 🙂
The food was very delicious and by far the best entree samosas I've had.
The food packed a punch and it was pretty spicy as I requested it.

2nd time here in the last 2 weeks with different friends. The quality of the food is great, no arguments there.
However, for the2nd time there was no Mango Chutney or Raita. Again! Why!
It was very busy tonight but the food came out in good time, nice quality, and good portions.

Ordered via a delivery partner and for <$40 had this beautiful butter chicken and rice with naan delivered. One of the best Indians I’ve tried in brisbane so far. Food was prepared and delivered quickly, arrived hot and fresh. The butter chicken was beautiful, chicken cooked tenderly, and the naan was just perfect. Serving sizes were reasonable and it reheated very well. Will definitely order from here again in the future.

Incredible vegan options at our favourite Indian restaurant in Brisbane, with a great vibe and friendly staff. The vegan butter chicken was my favourite, together with all the vegan roti, naan and paratha variations. The curries are large, incredibly rich and authentic Indian in taste. Will definitely be coming back. I also recommend meat lovers to try the vegan options. You won’t miss a thing!
