Flavour of India

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.
