Authentic indian flavours. The dal makhani and paneer tikka were finger licking good.
The price may be a tiny bit higher but worth the quality and quantity.
Courteous staff.

Stop for a moment and imagine this. Amazing service and great food. I am so happy and please to write to this review. When we arrived at the restaurant we were so hungry! In fact we arrived on the dot at 5 pm ready to order a feast! It was 2 of us. We ordered masala papad. This was amazing! Seriously. For mains we ordered dal makhani, palak paneer and 2 tandoori roti and 1 naan. Also masala raita and a kingfisher beer! The food was pretty good. Spice level. Okay this was a good surprise. As you read the menu you’ll see there’s mild, medium, hot and Indian hot. For us the hot was perfect. In fact we thought it was the Indian not. I guess we have become westernised! Haha we ordered the makhani as hot and the palak paneer as Indian hot. The palak paneer was definitely spicy. But it had great flavour. I think hot is good enough. The tandoori roti was good. It was a little crispy which I think is expected. So we ordered naan. And I so happy that Puneet who might be the manager there or the owner asked us if we are pure vegetarian and told us that the naan has egg in it. This is the kind of service we want. Thanks Puneet for the excellent service. You guys are doing a great job. Asking simple questions like where are you from and giving dietary information is just what we need. The only one thing I would say and I don’t want it has the word negative because it’s not. Is that the masala raita was sweet. Which I think it should not be. But this is so minute that it doesn’t matter. Just a suggestion to not add sugar to the raita 🤗
Great food
Love the vegetarian dishes
Must say the chicken tikka took me back to Delhi. Hats off to the chef. Good sized serving for the curry as well. 👍🏼
We were family friends from India and Melbourne. After a long day in Queenstown this was the perfect place to settle in for drinks n meal . Every dish was perfect and we were completely satiated. Full marks to this Resturant. Dr Parul Sharma
A must visit if you are a fan of Indian food.
Loved their tandoori platter, lamb roganjosh and the naan. The restaurant ambience is very good and the staff is friendly and welcoming.
Definitely recommend this place.👌

We really enjoyed our indian meal here, superb yummy food, we ordered Paneer Butter Masala and butter naan. One butter naan is sufficient for 2 people
It’s a good decent, legit indian place here in Queenstown. Ive been here for a holiday and I was craving for an indian restaurant. Rating was good so I gave it a go. Im glad that I did, it exceeded my expectation!
Had been there on busy day but service and food are at very high standard. Thanks guys. Your Paneer kadhai, Dal Tarka and stuffed naan best thing I have ever had.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic Indian restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience. We ordered garlic naan, chicken saagwala, and butter chicken, and each dish exceeded our expectations.
The chicken in both the saagwala and butter chicken was incredibly tender, and the curries were bursting with flavor. However, the real standout was the butter chicken—it absolutely blew my mind. It's a must-try that I can't recommend enough.
I'm so impressed with this restaurant that I plan to visit again before I leave town. If you're looking for exceptional Indian cuisine, this place is a gem. Don't miss out!
Pleasantly surprised. Was expecting run of the mill average Indian. However walking in you can immediately smell the right kind of spices in the air. When the food finally came the flavours were virtually exploding in my mouth. The curries tasted very authentic and I can highly recommend their lamb shank curry. (Look on the menu in the specialty curries) was a much needed flavour overload. I have a tendency to search the 1 star reviews and get paranoid. If you are the same don't worry. Food came out slightly slow but was more than worth it. They are also super busy! Yum yum yum I am incredibly satisfied right now writing from within the restaurant. (Price is Food no alcohol but in my opinion very reasonable for Queenstown)
The food in this restaurant is really lovely especially in a cold winter day. We are a 6-people party and ordered different curries. All the species are right and lovely and we love the food so much and everything is very affordable as well. Highly recommend it to anyone who’s visiting Queenstown!
Was craving for some Indian food and decided to give this place a shot. Left the restaurant with happy bellies, fully satisfied with the quality of the food and service of the staff! Highly recommend coming down if you’re ever in the city area. The portions are on the larger side too:) Every penny was worth it!
Possibly the best Indian food I’ve ever had. Ordered the goat curry house specialty, Indian hot and it was delicious! Lamb samosas also a favorite and the garlic nann yummm!
High quality food. Especially the achari fish tikka was amazing. Worth multiple visits 😀
Very friendly and accommodating. No mention of dairy free or vegan on the menu but the waiter quickly let us know which items were dairy free. The vegetable samosas are the biggest I’ve ever seen. Naan bread is also quite big, not the small pieces like we get in Australia. They also have a yummy eggplant curry which not all Indian restaurants have.
Best authentic Indian food in qtown so far. I been eating here for years! Highly recommended veg navaratan korma and murgh bombay masala! :)
Thinking of Indian Cuisine while in Queenstown, Bombay Palace is the perfect choice. One can’t describe the aroma & flavour at this place without visiting for lunch/dinner. Non-veg & veg preparations were mouthwatering. Vide choice all giving flavour of spices. Since the place is busy one won’t mind bit of wait until your favourite dish arrives. Front staff & the Manger are very cordial & caring. This was my second visit to Queenstown & I had the opportunity to enjoy the delicacy with my family. Over & above they maintained the quality even after 5 years. I wish them Keep Going.
Lovely service and the food was delicious. We shared meals and loved every single one!
We particularly liked the Goan fish curry, so good! The mango lassi was great, too.
The interior could be a bit cuter, less old school.
Otherwise, definitely recommended!
