The Gold Coast is home to an array of incredible restaurants, but the award winning Bombay Affair is something truly special. Offering a unique menu that includes tapas-style dishes – a rarity for Indian – this Southport jewel has been rated as the best Indian on the Gold Coast, and it’s no surprise why. With succulent dishes using a variety of fresh and traditional Indian herbs and spices, Bombay Affair has perfected the balance of rich and tangy and sweet and spicy flavour combinations.Situated on Scarborough Street – close to the stunning Southport coastline and beachfront – Bombay Affair is a family-owned and run restaurant that makes you feel as though you’re the most important person in the room, all while serving homestyle and delicious dishes. With so many incredible options it’s certainly hard to choose (which may be an excuse to visit regularly), but we recommend sampling a variety of Bombay Affair’s small, savoury tapas-style dishes ranging from chholle tikki to paav bhaji and samosa to hara bhara kebabs. This local favourite fills up quickly so it’s recommended to book in advance to secure your table.
