Indian Restaurants in Glen Iris (2026)
Glen Iris has 3 indian restaurants. Here is every verified option.
#1 Curry Claridges — 57 High Street
Indian
What makes it great: Curry Claridges is what happens when a kitchen stops trying to impress and starts trying to be good. The biryani is the benchmark dish. If a restaurant nails the biryani — the rice, the protein, the seal, the aromatic lift — it can cook anything. This is not destination dining. This is your neighbourhood doing what it should.

#1 Namaste Bollywood
Indian
What makes it great: Namaste Bollywood does not advertise. It does not need to. The tandoor here is not decorative. The naan arrives blistered and puffed, pulled seconds ago. That is the difference. Not the flashiest option in Glen Iris. Possibly the best.

#1 Bollywood Tadka
Indian
What makes it great: Nobody goes to Bollywood Tadka for the decor. They go for portion sizes that respect your appetite. The biryani is the benchmark dish. If a restaurant nails the biryani — the rice, the protein, the seal, the aromatic lift — it can cook anything. If this place were in Fitzroy, there would be a queue. In Glen Iris, you can still walk in.
