Pakwan Indian Restaurant

Dandenong's family-run Indian kitchen, best known for butter chicken, lamb chops and dal makhni.

Casual dining room with a warm, family-run feel. Some reviewers describe a lively atmosphere on busy nights. on occasion loud music was flagged. The setting is functional rather than designed, with a focus on generous, homestyle cooking over decor.

Family-run operation with owners known for going above and beyond. including serving takeaway customers who arrived 45 minutes after close. Available for private party bookings. Delivery available via Uber Eats.

Broad North Indian repertoire with Punjabi-leaning dishes. butter chicken, dal makhni, biryani, naan, garlic naan, thali, and regional specials like Goan fish curry and bhuna goat. Regulars from the Indian community describe it as tasting like home.

Reasonably priced for generous Indian portions, with a dinner-for-two pack previously a strong draw (though the value of that deal has declined per some reviewers). Individually, most mains are considered affordable for the quality when the kitchen is on form.
