Dosa's were definitely abundant on their menu and it was really hard to choose which to order. Our safe bets were the chefs special dosa - combination of sorts stuffed into a dosa and a chicken egg dosa. Both were flavoursome and we agreed the paneer was creamy and delicious. Although this will be a once in a blue moon craving, it was a delightful one at that. Cheap, flavoursome and filling. Neither of us had even finished half our meals. Service was good and meals came out quite quickly. Under $30 for 2 types of dosas and a soft drink each. It's a welcome change to try unfamiliar indian cuisine, one of which I will recommend to others.

I would not go to this place ever again as it happened on three different occasions I gave them enough chances and they do not get it. if you don't respect customer and take it as purely business you might sail for bit but drawn soon.

Maybe it was just a little pricey, or they didn't really understand their beers. It was okay, but not one of the best.

Inside the atmosphere has been transformed into an attractive Indian décor. We had selected Saleem because it is an inexpensive Indian restaurant with good and a comfortable atmosphere; C and I have been there many times before. My English friend were pleased to find his favorite dishes on the menu of north Indian cuisine. The restaurant is BYO - C and I had bought a bottle of red, our friends had another bottle; conclusion a very good time was had by all. The service is friendly and efficient. Complimentary poppadoms were served with the meal. The curries are presented in bowels with tea-lights under them. Everyone had plenty to eat with the three curries that we ordered between the four of us. The curries are not spicy hot - Saleem Indian does cater a bit too much to the suburban Australian palette. It also does a good takeaway service that C and I have enjoyed when we were too busy too cook for ourselves.

However, don't let that discourage you, we're here for the food after all. We ordered from the take away menu which included the Sag Paneer, Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Korma and Chicken Biryani. Every dish was filled with amazing, rich and tasty flavours. Sag Paneer had huge pieces of cottage cheese submerged within the spinach. Both the chicken and lamb were cooked perfectly, tender and a joy to eat with their respective sauces where you could taste the freshly ground spices and herbs. The Chicken Biryani had a pleasant sweet taste mixed with a wonderful amount of spice with hidden pieces of tender chicken underneath the rice. The garlic naan did a wonderful job of soaking the sauce with its fluffy goodness and texture. We ordered the regular sized versions of these dishes and there was enough to feed us twice over ticking the cost-effective check box and raising my smile dial even further. The service was friendly and prompt, the chefs dressed neatly focusing on their food preparations was nice to see. I have read some negative reviews concerning the food quality and taste and I'm worried that these reviews are not authentic, so please take their advice with a grain of salt and do what I did and ignore them. Yep, that winning feeling :) If you're in the area looking for the Northern India food experience, it's hard to go pass Ameer Tandoori. Although the décor needs work, the food is sensational and one restaurant you shouldn't miss out on.

I never did, and the other thing I never did, was eat sushi at a car wash. Ever. Until I read up about them on Broadsheet. "Fresh hand made sushi rolls" really? " tender fresh fish" "fresh ingredients and extensive range " "ambitious selection and winners"! ok that and the pictures was enough to take me to a Friday takeaway to this local "awesome" sushi joint that had apparently been there a while but struggled to attract customers ( well it's a very unusual set up so I'm not surprised) I was surprised that my sushi rolls were just that, fresh, tender, juicy, made to order and just delicious. Lots of selection to keep me entertained for another local dinner ( although I might feel weird eating there staring at other peoples car being washed. So I might stick to take away for now) And no boring stale sushi rolls on a glass cabinet, no siree. Words on broadsheet is that this joint will be seeing a revamped soon, and I can't wait to see this place gain popularity and loyal locals because I think they deserve it and Coburg definitely deserves a good local sushi joint!

The self-proclaimed wonderland builds its reputation up a great deal, and for good reason. I ordered takeaway one night when there was a function on, inside was lively, music playing and everyone smiling. The décor and ambient lighting did reflect a kind of magical wonderland that has been long forgotten, especially in a restaurant atmosphere. They lived up to their namesake. We ordered the palak paneer (homemade cottage cheese cooked in spinach puree topped with cream and ginger), garlic naan, lamb vendaloo (pieces of lamb and potatoes cooped in spices with hot chilli sauce, finished with fresh coriander), chicken korma (chicken cooked with light creamy sauce finished with coconut milk and cashew paste) and chicken biryani (chicken cooked with basmati rice and flavored with selected herbs). The food was amazing, delicious, authentic flavours that were beautifully put together. Both lamb and chicken was cooked perfectly, tender and not dry or tough. The naan soft and infused with garlic. The homemade cottage cheese in the palak paneer was to die for. The service was prompt and friendly. Although, I have only had Azooba once, they delivered perfect Indian food that's among the best I have ever tasted. I can't wait to dine in and have a function here.

I did this all online so I never talked to a live person except to confirm they got my order. The menu had endless choices to scan through and we settled on safe food, chicken tikka masala and butter chicken. The food was roughly $30 Australian. A really good deal. When it came and we unwrapped it, it had no rice. What Indian place does not include rice with the main dish? And if you receive an order from someone for delivery and rice is separately priced, do you not call the people and say "hey, you need rice with this". So, we ate soupy chicken dishes with no rice. Huge disappointment. I think it is a big fail on the restaurant's part. Flavor was good, but at this late hour it is just too late to even try to correct it. Shaking my head at this situation.
