Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Arya is a family owned and run Indian restaurant. Chef Bupi turns out the most delicious Indian cuisine. My favourites, to mention a few, are Burra Kebab (succulent tandoori lamb cutlets) Chicken Tikka, Tandoori Prawns, Chicken Butter Masala etc. etc. (thinking of all the dishes makes my mouth water). Besides the food the welcome by Manna, Bupi’s wife, makes you feel at home right away. The restaurant has a relaxed ambiance and to kickoff with a Cocktail or Mocktail gets you in the mood. Can’t wait to visit again 😋

A heart felt thank you to Mana and her staff who were attentive all night and made us feel welcomed & comfortable as we enjoyed a beautiful assortments of Indian dishes. The food was generous, delicious and they made sure no-one left without a full belly. The personal touches they do makes you feel like family and we witnessed this throughout the night with the other patrons in the restaurant too. Right down to Mana personally walking you out as you leave makes it feel like you've dined at her home and not a restaurant. We will happily return again soon, the kids are already asking when are we going back. Thank you for the bangles and treat for the kids :) CG

Five of us decided to try Arya Indian Restaurant last Saturday evening (30/7/22) after our usual "curry-den" had been closed for an indefinite period. I have travelled to and stayed in India (Hyderabad) on a number of occasions on work assignments so I knew what constituted good indian tucker so I had high standards. We took our own booze (BYO and licensed - their bar was very good) and we were seated without delay and immediately handed the menu. I wanted Prawns Vindaloo (hot) but it was not on the list so I casually enquired. I received a beaming grin and was told that my request would not be a problem despite it being at peak hour and with the restaurant being nearly full. In fact the entire selection we made was delivered promptly and hot to the spiciness level we requested. I do recommend their Vegetable Samosa .... absolutely magnificent! Also, their lightly flavoured indian style coconut rice was also very good. And as for the Prawn Vindalool ... Yum!!!... as good as you'll get anywhere including India. The restaurant is a family owned and run business. The serving wenches were aussie born and schooled so communications were a breeze with the order taker saying "no worries" in a truly aussie accent which to a 70 yO with bad hearing was an absolute godsend.

Dinner was great. we got a butter chicken and the cheese and garlic naan and were very impressed. The butter chicken was delicious as always but what really prompted me to write a review was the amazing naan. It came out hot, cheese melting, perfectly cooked. This was the star of the meal. would recommend to anyone

Arya Indian restaurant is a hidden gem in Narre Warren, I strongly recommend it to all my family and friends! The food is flavorful, vibrant and the most authentic I've had in all of Melbourne. In the entire time that I've frequented here I've never had bad service, the staff are all so friendly and warm with the best manners I've ever seen. Every dish feels like its made with so much care, even through COVID-19 they've adapted really well and kept the quality and consistency of their service and cuisine which I find incredibly impressive. Highly recommend checking them out if you're a supporter of local businesses- or if you're looking for a new delicious dish to obsess over ( their vindaloo is incredibly by the way)

We picked up 4 takeaway meals with tandoori platter, rice and garlic naan and took it to our friends house for lunch. It was ready on time for pick up, service was friendly and the food was amazing. None of us like spicy food so they made sure it was all mild for us. We will be coming back.

Arya is our regular Indian restaurant that caters to the taste buds of people from different backgrounds. From the Chicken 65 that is a hit with the kids to the soft and fresh naans that go well with the curries on offer. Our go-to is the Kaadai Chicken and the Paneer Butter Masala. The mango kulfi is a must try for a sweet tooth of all ages.

The food is sourced fresh and you can taste the quality of the produce. The food is freshly cooked when you place the order, it does not come out of the microwave. I know my Indian food and can genuinely say that the menu and the food are excellent

We dined there on Sunday 21/6 and it was a fantastic dinner of chilli chicken daal makhani and achari beef with butter naans and coconut rice. My son has an allergy to all nuts and sesame seed which was taken care of with a completely separate menu. Most accommodating and exceptional service from Mannar and her husband chef Bhuppi. It’s the best Indian food in south East Melbourne I have to say. Try the sheesh kebabs. Delicious. The ambience of the restaurant too was warm and inviting. We will definitely go back. Thanks Mannar and Bhupi.

One of the best Indian restaurants I’ve have ever been to. Arya catered to my Dads 70th birthday and it was an sumptuous experience. From the hospitality they showed while we put up the decorations to the service, it was flawless , not to mention the food. The tandoori lamb chops and the chicken Bhunna was exquisite. An excellent restaurants with well deserved laurels. Highly highly recommended.

It was the best decision we made to have our Golden Wedding Anniversary celebration at Arya Indian Restaurant. The food was delicious, the service impeccable and the ambience warm and friendly. Mana was most helpful and gracious, nothing too small or difficult, from the planning when she suggested to cut down the number of dishes - to the day it’s self helping with the decorations etc. Our guests were so full of praise for the restaurant. Arya has our strongest recommendation for excellent Indian cuisine and outstanding hospitality.

We had takeaway from our favourite Indian restaurant and it did not disappoint, tried 2 dishes we had not had before, Chicken Jalfarazi and Balti Prawns with Coriander, the flavours were sensational, would definitely order these again. The service from Mana and her staff was just as exceptional as if I had dined in. I highly recommend trying their food you will be so impressed. Can’t wait till we can dine in this restaurant again.

We have been here about 100 times and the experience is consistently brilliant. Everything from the warm welcome, service, smiling staff, delicious food and value for money makes Arya a stand out. If you have never had their tandoori platter, you are denying yourself of something special!!

This is certainly one of the very best Indian Restaurant's in all categories that I have dined in. Right from the booking, to the service and then the fantastically prepared and tasty food!!! Have had many a meal at Arya, and the cleanliness, efficiency, atmosphere, service and food is surely the best. Thanks Mana to you and all the staff for maintaining the high quality of your restaurant. I have recommended Arya to many of my family, friends and colleagues and will continue to do so.

I have been going to Arya’s for many years and may I say it is always a pleasure. From the beautiful food to the atmosphere you are never disappointed. The staff lead by the owner of the restaurant make you feel like family from the time you enter the restaurant. The pricing is also very reasonable. Go once I can guarantee you will return. 🤗
