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 Glenroy.

Vegetarian options: Every Indian restaurant listed here offers vegetarian mains. If you’re vegan, ask about ghee — most kitchens will substitute on request.
