AI Summary

Melbourne laneway curry house serving rich North Indian classics in a cosy, below-street room.

Tucked down a laneway stairway into a surprisingly large, cosy dining room with warm lighting, South Asian decor touches and live local music. reviewers repeatedly call the ambience a highlight.

Full bar with a wine list, a laneway entrance down a stairwell into a hidden dining room, and decor featuring traditional South Asian fabric and artwork alongside the Indian menu.

Reviewers praise authentic North Indian flavours and note distinctive Nepalese cultural touches in the decor (traditional fabric, artwork), reflecting a broader South Asian identity.

Generally seen as reasonably priced for the portion and quality, though a few reviewers flagged specific dishes as pricier than comparable Melbourne Indian restaurants.
