An English mate was coming down from the Central Coast, and when I asked him what cuisine he fancied on his one night in Melbourne he somewhat shamefacedly admitted he was desperate for a good curry. Somewhat perplexed, as I had originally planned a trip to Chin Chin, Mo Vida, Di Stasio or Stokehouse, I canvassed friends for ideas about... More

Went in a group and cost us $100 per person for about five below average dishes. Will never recommend this place to anyone though I am Indian. Be warned. Very expensive. Better to pay this type of dollars for another type of meal. More

While Melbourne is full of Indian restaurants, not many where the ambiance, service and food is good enough to take friends too. As Indian settled in Australia for over 30 years, we get asked many times by our non-Indian friends to go out and eat Indian food. We went here a few month's ago just by chance and really enjoyed...

This fantastic little gem is not tucked away in an alley in Melbourne's cbd but in the southern suburb of Caulfield, but it is well worth the trip out there. The restaurant is simply and neatly furnished - tables have white tablecloth and the cream walls have large framed photos of people and places in India. The staff are very... More

I've only complained once about a meal and I've never been prompted to write a restaurant review - of course I'd never been to Bombay By Night, so this may be why. To be fair to BBN, there was nothing actually wrong with the food. I went with a group of 8 and we had the set menu which turned... More

We went to Bombay By Night for a friend's birthday recently and I was quite interested to see what it was like since this restaurant has been on The Age Good Food Guide every year since 1996 (except 1998 and 1999, I don't know what happened there). Our orders took a while to come out because of the large quantity... More
