Review Bombay Palace Wanaka - Wanaka

One of the best restaurants we went to on our trip to New Zealand. They served Rotis , side dishes, rice all steaming hot. The view of the lake from the restaurant is a sight to see. Would love to go there again.

No doubt it's the best Indian food restaurant in Wanaka. We come here almost once a week during we stay in Wanaka. It's the most frequent restaurant we visit in the town. The price is absolutely reasonable to the meal amount. There are much meat in the butter chicken/lamb which is the meal I always order. We've tried other Indian restaurants in the town, but this one is the best. Highly recommend! I love their garlic naan. The price is a bit cheaper than other restaurants but the amount is larger and the crispy taste is better! Beside meal, the outside view and the friendly staff are the reason we always come.

Lovely meal. I had the garlic naan and chicken tikka massala, asked it to be “hot” (they give you 4 different levels to choose from) and it was perfection. Very friendly waiters. Beautiful view but also the inside tables are very cosy.

We eat Indian food often and have to say that this restaurant is ranked in the top 2 of all the Indian restaurants we have tried in New Zealand so far for us. My partner had the lamb shank, which we saw someone else eating as we entered the restaurant. The aroma was so delicious, that my partner had to have it and he was not disappointed. The portion size and the flavour were both grand. I had Chicken Tikka Masala Mild, which was spicier than I am used to in other restaurants, yet all the other flavours came through beautifully. The quantity of actual chicken in the curry was very generous and in fact, I actually couldn't finish the full portion. The other highlight was a light and fantastically fresh cheese and garlic naan bread. It was light and cooked just right with a more than generous cheese filling. The prices are also extremely affordable and the value for money is fantastic. The staff are all very helpful and friendly and the service was very fast. I also loved the cozy and warm atmosphere and decor. A must visit again next time we are in Wanaka for sure !

Bombay palace at Wanaka is proper fine dine Indian restaurant located at magnificent location overlooking lake Wanaka. Food was delicious authentic Indian and restaurant staff was well mannered. Restaurant is well decorated with indoor and outdoor seating both available.

Highly recommend this restaurant. We asked the waiter and he said that the chicken is from halal source 👍🏻 The tandoori platter for 2 and butter chicken curry was so good. Garlic naan was really good too as per other reviews. They have vegetarian options too!

I was not expecting to find authentic Indian food in Wanaka. I was pleasantly surprised by the Bombay Palace. The food is excellent. It's packed with spices and very flavorful. My only negative comment would be that the service staff did not seem highly engaged. The waitress who took my order did not check back in with me. There seemed to be one gentleman doing all the work while the waitresses were in a corner chatting.

Really great experience. The food is authentic and so tasty! The Mango Margarita has a different touch to it and is tasty! My only complaint would be that the food took a bit longer than expected. It was still worth the wait.

This is one of those special restaurants that after one meal becomes your favorite. The view here is amazing looking over lake Wanaka. The food though is what keeps bringing you back time and time again. We have an agreement in our house hold that after an exceptionally hard day we get Bombay. Something to note is that you won’t find a better group of staff anywhere. If you are visiting or local this is the place to go.

Highly recommend. Good taste. Kid’s friendly. They met my expectations. Good environment & spectacular views. Thanks for making my trip to Wanaka.

The place was nice and warm during the Winter. We ordered a Fish Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken and a garlic naan. It was delicious. Choose your spice level wisely, it was a little spicy even for us asians!

We had a fabulous meal about 2 weeks ago. What a tasty meal great portions and the staff were simply the Best. It was lunch time and not to crowded so loved it. The Decor is fantastic the seating in the new booths is sooooo good. But the staff were so attentive. Cannot recommend highly enough. Wanaka people get in there and support these hard working people.

5 star restaurant. Everything was fantastic including: Service, food, portion size (food and cocktails), the price and the view from the panoramic windows and the interior. Staff super friendly. Would recommend 100%! Also parking just opposite in public car park by lake.

The restaurant is set up in an amazing location overlooking Lake Wanaka. The food here is authentic Indian and delicious. Prices are slightly on the higher side, however considering the location it is worth it. There is also a full bar and Indian beer and spirits including Old Monk rum.

Really a top notch Indian joint with best view anywhere in Wanaka. Staff are wonderful, really look after you. Food is genuinely the best Indian I’ve ever had. Great for takeaway too. Great ambience, great people, great restaurant!

One of the best indian restaurants you can ever try! Staff is always so kind, polite and in good mood. Every curry is absolute bomb and never forget to get yourself a great tasting mango lassi!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bombay Palace and I must say, their vegetarian cuisine is absolutely amazing! From the beautiful sunset to the delicious and fresh food, my experience was nothing short of fantastic. The sundowners were a perfect way to start the evening, and the atmosphere was simply stunning. But it was the food that really stole the show. The good platter was an amazing selection of dishes with a variety of flavors and sauces that all blended together perfectly. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and I couldn't get enough. Overall, I would highly recommend Bombay Palace to anyone looking for delicious vegetarian cuisine in a beautiful setting. The flavors and quality of the food are simply unmatched, and it's truly a must-visit for anyone who appreciates good taste.

we are from the West Coast, and this time we decided to try something different during our stay in Wanaka. The food was amazing, we tried the chicken madras, prawn masala, garlic naan and 2 drinks and the bill was under $80. we will be back 🙋🏻‍♀️

Since we were in South Island, gave their lamb biryani a try and it was delicious. We ate here twice and food was delicious. Good ambience and lake Wanaka views. The service was really good too. <br/>

Delicious food. Best Indian. Table ordered chicken Tikka (5) lovely mint sauce. Crispy mixed veggies (5). Chicken Korma (5). Shrimp in a spinach sauce (Shwarma?) (5) and a lamb dish. With Nan bread to share was a great atmosphere outside patio with heaters and awesome food
