Sizzler Restobar

Woodend's destination Indian. owner Sam's hospitality matches cooking that converts curry sceptics.

Warmly lit with tasteful, recently refurbished interiors that feel more city restaurant than country town; operated by owner Sam and his wife who create an intimate, family-feel dining room. The sizzling plate presentations add theatre to the meal.

Hot sizzling plate service for select dishes including the hariyali chops; owner Sam personally greets and checks on every table; genuine spice-level customisation (actually spicy when requested); house apple juice worth asking for; heated plates noted.

Authentic North Indian cuisine spanning tandoori, korma, rogan josh and masala preparations; food made with genuine spice knowledge and real heat available on request; menu reflects Sam's cultural heritage and personal passion for sharing it.

Priced at a premium compared to typical Indian takeaway, but the quality, personal service and sizzling plate presentations justify the cost for the overwhelming majority of reviewers. Occasional criticism of sauce-heavy portion ratios.
