Manjits Balmain

Traditional curries are elevated with freshly ground spices and time tested family recipes, offering a unique, exotic refuge from the daily grind.

Located in the heart of cosmopolitan Balmain, this was Australia's First Indian Restaurant and is still seen by many as the best. Following in the footsteps of Manjit himself, his wife Kawal overseas all dishes being prepared from scratch using only the freshest ingredients.

The contemporary interior underwent a major renovation in 2019, keeping the atmosphere as fresh as the cuisine. The walls have been painted a dark charcoal to highlight the beautiful artwork painted personally by Kawal.

A towering painting of Annapurna, Hindu goddess of food and nourishment, adorns the restaurant balcony that overlooks the bustling and historic Darling Street.

Manjits Balmain is a truly authentic Indian experience, perfect for a romantic date, dinner with friends or a quick appetiser and martini. Sink back into the comfortable cushions with relaxing, upbeat music and escape to the east.
