I booked a table at a friends recommendation for my partners birthday. What a pleasant surprise. My experiences of dining out in cairns had been pretty disappointing so far.

I was lucky enough to be brought here as a birthday treat. The food was beautiful and plentiful. Service was friendly, but I felt that they could have had more staff on as they seemed a bit erratic at times..

The Hanuman serves excellent food, including their signature oysters and prawns. The currys are filled with flavour and depth without being oily or overly creamy. We left feeling thoroughly satisfied. Their was only one slip up with service, which was more than made up for during the evening. Not much of a view in the evenings once its dark, but...

The major Asian cuisines are represented and they were done well. Tom Yum soup brilliant. Pork Belly a little bland but so tender. Chicken parcels were a delight. Chicken green curry outstanding. Creme Brulee. I demolished the dessert. It was fabulous. Very fancy and beautiful restaurant. Definitelt visit for yummy high range Asian cuisine.

This is a fine dining Asian restaurant that delivers the goods. Fine location with a view out over the Trinity Inlet and a selection of beautiful dishes. Friendly staff and easy to find.

Have dined in all three Hanuman's several times. None are as good as the original in Alice Springs but this one comes pretty close. Chicken green curry was very very good. Service was pretty good as well.

centrally located in the lobby of the Hilton. It does not feel like a Hilton restaurant. Indian with Asian influence. Great service and good value for a high end product.

I was expecting something great from this restaurant and was looking forward to going there, but was disappointed. The food was no better than takeaway. The main course of prawns was terrible. They tasted like overcooked frozen prawns with a very heavy overly sweet sauce. The tasting plate was ok but not much better. The only positive was the oysters....

Very classy experience where food served was of top quality. A good combination of Asian food options with good choices for vegetarians. Very supportive staff who were happy to offer prompt service. Would recommend a visit at least once if on a short trip to Cairns for Indian food
