Aangan Indian Restaurant

Seriously best ever no more to say. Ask for a table out the back is a must for the full experience

Amazing butter chicken, literally to die for! Garlic naan bread was also pretty damn awesome: D

We had dinner here, and it was delicious. Our selections included shai paneer, palak paneer, lemon rice, Dahl mahkani, and a info chine fusion dish. Everything was full of wonderful flavored, fantastic spice, and very healthy portions. We were with two native Indians who enjoyed the meal as well.
Remember to book your table as it’s very busy!

I haven’t eaten in at Aangan but I have ordered some of their tasty takeaway via delivery and I was very satisfied: Nothing was soaked in oil and they used good quality chicken breast in our butter chicken and fresh mushrooms in our veggie dish. A small bottle of mango lassi was provided for free as it was our first order. All our dishes were flavourful and the portions were ample… If you’re going Indian out west, Aangan is a good bet.

So I finally took time to drive down last night with my lovely Mrs to have Indian food.
I had food here after I believe over good two years. The staff was pretty welcoming and I believe well trained to look after the customers. We were given complimentary poppadoms with mint and tamarind sauce.
We started with Gobhi Manchurian and Chilly chicken and OMG the Gobhi Manchurian was probably the best I’ve ever had but I was a little disappointed with Chilly Chicken as the chicken was not well prepared and tasted a little awkward.
Time comes for the mains… My Mrs ordered Tava Vegetables and for me being a meat person ordered Kadhai Chicken and disappointment comes again as the chicken was over cooked and had lost its flavour, the chicken literally looked little odd in the curry it was in, as it didn’t look like mixed up pretty well with the curry.
Finally we were done and couldn’t finish so decided to take the rest of the food in the takeaway containers as we didn’t want to leave so much of the food behind because the employees looked very concerned about the quality of the food as everyone asked «how’s the food? And we obviously didn’t want to be rude and say something which gets us involved in even longer conversation».
We had Paan in the end and it was probably the best thing which could make us forget about the bad taste of the food:)
Not to forget the pricing: Literally a Rip-​Off !! For 2 people almost $ 100. Not worth it guys !!

Wow, we walked into this restaurant with no expectations and were blown away.
We parked on Barkly Street looking for something to eat at 2:45pm on a Sunday. We knew we would find it difficult to get a meal at that time, but we were starved! Most restaurants were closed or full, but the staff at Aangan were very welcoming and happy to seat us even though the kitchen was due to close.
The menu is very interesting with a range of Indian dishes from all regions of India plus an Indochinese menu as well. There are heaps of vegetarian options so we were happy.
We started with the biggest Dosa I’ve ever seen, filled with diced fresh onions and mashed potato curry. It was a really yummy start to our meal. Our entrée was Masala Puri, these hollow balls filled with chickpeas, potatoes, tamarind and mint were a taste sensation. This dish alone is worth a return visit.
We also had Matter Mushroom (curry) with saffron rice and raita.
An extremely yummy meal and very well priced.
In a competitive strip with 15 restaurants, 10 of which are Indian, we were very happy that we wandered into Aangan.

The best Indian resturant in melbourne. Food was amazingly yummy and we ordered too much I guess for three :)
We had the mixed fruit lassi and was much better than any lassi I ever had. Their chicken tikka butter was amazing and tasty. We had it with rice. Their mixed tikka plater I would say it’s enough for four and we were three. We also order the onion phaji and was the best.
Highly recommended

Had a strong referral to come here from a friend. Was not disappointed. Their butter chicken is great. Also recommend their chilli chicken. Their entrée sizes are huge so don’t order to much! As for a drink get their Indian beer and also mango lassi — yum!
