'Flavour of India' has always been the No.1 Indian Restaurant in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs always providing exceptional quality food. Staff and service have always been exceptional always providing a memorable dining experience
Great service and food. Large portions. Cheese naan was particularly yummy. Atmosphere is lacking but it would be good in a large group that would also enable you to try a variety of dishes.
We always order the tandoori chicken and tandoori lamb chops along with the dahl which are our preferred dishes when we dine at Flavour of India.
Great atmosphere. Excellent service from staff. Food was absolutely divine! Memorable graduation dinner with family. Only suggestion would be to include more rice dishes. Other than that, simple superb.
Great flavours, very tasty especially the butter chicken. Service was very good and meals well priced. Our children even enjoyed themselves. Will definitely be back.
Excellent restaurant, we had a lovely comforting winter meal, we received very gracious service and met the chef at the end of the night who was a very generous host!
Fantastic food. Outstanding service. Great ambience. We are regulars. Big favourite is the onion barji. The pricing is very reasonable, especially considering the quality. Booking is essential.
Fantastic meal, very tasty food and the staff were so lovely. The chef himself came out to chat to us and brought us special desserts !
Were here 2years ago and food was fantastic and came here again from Orange to celebrate our 46 years of marriage.once again food was heavenly and staff and chef fantastic.All round great experience thanks. peter
Flavour of India is always a good place for dinner and I recommend the vegetable korma with coconut milk and rice for vegetarians and vegans.
Very tasty Indian food. Lovely restaurant, good service. The highlight was a choice of exotic cocktails by the carafe which are an excellent complement the spicy flavours of the food.
I went with my wife and two of our children. We got a great table and we were served quite promptly. Food was quite nice, not amazing, but authentic and served hot. Overall, we would certainly go back.
Lovely food, nice waitresses, a little slow. Malabar prawns are a big winner. Everything was lovely. Samosa was excellent as was butter chicken. We had a lovely night.
Delicious food, served in reasonable time, good wait staff and good value pricing. Textures and flavours well above average in Indian food. Added bonus was when time to leave the settlement of the bill was done with speed and minimal fuss, so often an Achilles heel at otherwise good restaurants. Very enjoyable.
The BEST Indian restaurant we have ever experienced. We will be back whenever we are in Sydney. Such authentic spices and flavones as well as amazing choices.
Deco is too warn out. Food has not much taste. Tandoori chicken n butter chicken Masala should have different taste apart from the Red curry sauce.
Lovely and attentive staff, nice food and reasonable priced wine selection. For three adults we shared 3 mains and one starter, which was more than enough. Will definitely come back!
Amazing food - with the restaurant being #2 on TripAdvisor, we expected a lot - but the expectations were well met and even exceeded - would recommend
Mildly disappointing though last time we went was 1997! The samosas pastry was very tough making what could be a light entree heavy forcing many other diners to only eat the filling which I am sure is not what any chef would have intended. Butter chicken and the lamb spinach however saved the meal but I dont think we will return.
We went to the "Flavour of India"in Edgecliff for the first time on Sunday evening. There was plenty of choice on the menu, the food was excellent and the waiter and waitress were friendly, attentive, but not so attentive as to be intrusive. It's a great restraunt and my wife and I will certainly be returning there on our next trip to Sydney. Emil & Genevieve Finn Foxground, NSW
Flavour of India was a fantastic experience. I had been recommended it and it lived up to all of my expectations. The service was super efficient and friendly and the food was so flavoursome. For a restaurant of its standard, it is very affordable. The samosas are giant and so good that I went for a second round post the main meal! Will be back.
We ate at Flavour of India on Tuesday night. The tandoori chicken and tandoori lamb were both good as was the dahl dish and rice on the side.
We booked but didn't need to as the restaurant was very quiet. The service was great as was the food. We asked the extremely helpful and friendly waitress to order on our behalf and she did an excellent job as everything was absolutely delicious. One of the families favourite restaurant, can't believeit isn't packed every night.
The staff were really lovely and accommodating, but unfortunately the food not so great. The naan was not fully cooked and very doughy, the rice contained sultanas even though we asked without, the aloo gobi tasted like an italian dish and the tikka masala was like a butter chicken that had been reheated. Very disappointing for the cost. We are locals and unlikely to return.
Simple google search led us to Flavour of India - my family and I are visiting from Seattle, WA, USA. And while we had a handful of great meals in Sydney, dinner at Flavour of India stood out as excellent. Anyone with a Indian grandmother knows that she makes her best samosas. That being said, I was absolutely delighted when their samosas were so comparable to my grandma’s. I could just at them for my dinner and been happy. Everything - from their cocktails (fresh and clean), to their Palek Paneer (mom’s favorite), to their mango chutney (the BEST I have EVER had) and lime pickle (dad’s favorite), was so thoughtfully prepared that. Every dish was delicious. We had them prepare the Tandoori and Butter Chicken with medium spice and I have to say, I can’t think of anywhere I’d had better. Finishing it off with their mango kulfi or pistachio & dates kulfi will make an already amazing dinner that much better. Chef Hayat has outdone himself - and I think Sydney knows this. After all, Flavour of India has been around for 28 years. Even after all that time, he goes out of his way to check in with his customers and make sure their meal was great. That is service. If you’re a local and never been, you should. If you’re visiting, make this one of your stops. We’ll be in Sydney again in a couple days on our way home and will be stopping in again - it was THAT good.
The entrees were slow last night and when the tandoori chicken and lamb cutlets finally arrived they were dry, as though they had been overcooked! We were then asked if we would like the mains straight away?
we had a lovely meal and it was air conditioned which was great on a hot night. Seated on a lovely private table, so all four of us really enjoyed it.
We tend to order the tandoori dishes as we don't like eating lots of potatoes, particularly with rice and naan bread as it's a carbohydrate overload!
Beautiful food and wonderful service. The staff like to ensure you enjoy your dining experience. Highly recommend Flavour of India, it’s one of our favourites!
We had a great experience with lovely staff (including the delightful chef personally bringing special treats to our table). Great food & a very good night. We will be back!
Great food as always , service also , wouldn't go anywhere else for amazing indian food . Never had a bad meal at this place would recommend it highly
Outstanding cuisine and service. We appreciated the recommendations from the wait staff and were not disappointed. We highly recommend to other diners and will be sure to return when back in Sydney.
Literally the best naan I've ever had (I ordered additional takeaway, that's how good they were), and the butter chicken and Malabar prawns were delicious.
Tasty food and request for mild was adhered to. Service was slow and waiters were not attentive. It was not a busy night. We told them we were not happy. Gave us complementary desert. Serves were on the small side Nice touch that cook came and talked to us.
The naan bread was thick and soggy when it has been much better in the past - maybe there's a new chef in the kitchen?
Fabulous food! Have been a long time patron of Flavour Of India and never once had a bad experience. Delicious food, prompt and friendly service. A long standing establishment that has withstood the test of time over many years now. Best Indian restaurant in Sydney.
It advertises it’s a 2 hat restaurant not sure why. It is a nice restaurant but nothing outstanding. The price for the main chicken dishes are high, eg the butter chicken a favourite amongst mild loving curry fans is $30. A great night but won’t be rushing back.
Beautifully out, excellent service, delicious food! The Punjabi Fling Cocktail was the most amazing thing I’d ever tasted! Highly recommend this place of in be area
Amazing food with a great variety to choose from, service was equally great, nice cosy private feeling atmosphere the meals also came out very quickly too
Amazing food we had our 15 year anniversary here and it was awesome They even bought out a complimentary desert complete with sparklers on top Very gracious hosts Do yourself a favour and try this place
We ate at Flavour of India again last night but unfortunately the garlic naan lacked garlic and didn't taste any different to the regular naan bread.
10/10. Good authentic traditional Indian food, the waiter is not pushy or cliche and does not fuss and is happy but not irritatingly happy. The chef is kind and brings you complimentary dessert (not always) and the music is relaxing and at the right level. Interior is ambient and lighting perfect. I have no complaints whatsoever. Will come back soon.
The food was excellent and service was great. The chef brought out complimentary desserts to celebrate winning two hats. Highly recommend. Best Indian in the eastern suburbds
Food was very nice, served very quickly, seating area abit small. Staff not so friendly. The best part for me was the taste of the food it was worth going for.
Consistently great food, service and wine list. This is one of my favourite Indian restaurants and never disappoints. Family run business with a personal touch brings me back every time.
