#1 Jai Ho Indian Restaurant (205 Swan Street, Richmond)
Rating: 4.2/5 (685 reviews) | Price: $15-30 a head
A 4.2-star average across 685 reviews. Polarising, but worth trying. A kitchen that respects the fundamentals — fresh spice mixes, proper tempering, and rice that is actually good. Expect to pay $15-30 a head.
#2 Spice Club (308 Toorak Road, South Yarra)
Rating: 4.2/5 (323 reviews) | Price: $15-30 a head
At 4.2 stars from 323 reviews, it divides opinion — but the fans are loyal. Spice levels are calibrated, not just cranked — which is how you know they care. Expect to pay $15-30 a head.
#3 Indiaus Curry House (462 Bridge Road, Richmond)
Rating: New/unrated | Price: Not listed
Not enough reviews yet to call it, but the menu looks right. The curry selection covers north and south, with enough heat options to keep everyone happy.
What to Know About Indian Dining in Burnley
BYO: Several Indian restaurants in Burnley are BYO or offer a small corkage fee. Call ahead — it can save you $30+ on a bottle compared to restaurant wine lists.
Booking: For groups of 4+, book ahead — especially on Friday and Saturday nights. Most places accept walk-ins for couples during the week, but weekends fill up fast in Burnley.
Vegetarian options: Every Indian restaurant listed here offers vegetarian mains. If you’re vegan, ask about ghee — most kitchens will substitute on request.
Delivery: Most Indian restaurants in Burnley are on Uber Eats and DoorDash, but the food is almost always better dine-in. Naan does not travel well.
