Having spent 18 months in India I've eaten plenty of Indian food, this is not the best but its really authentic. If you like unfussy South Indian food this is the place. The style of the restaurant is really basic, you come here to eat! The prices reflect this, I can't remember what I paid, not much more than ten bucks all in. We shared and I tried the thali, the idli, the masala dosa, all of them are exactly to standard, tasty and satisfying. The ladies working here are friendly in a polite warm way. They came over and checked the food wasn't too spicy for the young teenage boys I had in tow, it wasnt which made them really happy! Such a sweet place, no frills and no pocket damage! Pop if your passing and pick up an authentic bargain.

Don't tell the vegetarians around here, but my favourite thing to eat from here is their yellow yoghurt and zucchini curry: I get take away, warm it up, and stir in some freshly pan-fried chicken thighs for a fast affordable meal that just dances on the tongue.

The Bonfire Restaurant (the café in the title is a misnomer!) is located in Springvale and is a…read morerather small place nestled among many other Indian, Asian and fast food joints. The place is more famous for takeaways rather than dine-in due to the small space and not so appealing service. The food leans more heavily towards Pakistani style of cooking which is rather similar to the cuisine of old Delhi and parts of Punjab and North Frontier. We arrived there around 8.00pm on a Saturday evening and the place was only half full. Since it's mostly a takeaway joint, you are likely to find place even on weekends but if you are part of a large group, I totally recommend calling ahead of time as the place can get really cramped, even with a few diners. Though I have read mixed reviews about this place on Zomato, I kept an open mind and not get influenced by what I have read. The menu was refreshingly different and did not offer the same kind of dishes that are offered by most Indian restaurants. Like I said, this was because the menu leaned towards the Pakistani style of cooking; so that expectations were really high as I know that Pakistani cuisine is an incredibly delicious one, rich and packed with flavour. Since there were very few diners, we got seated fairly quickly and the menus were bought out. There was a good variety of dishes across all categories and I liked the fact that each dish carries a little note about the origin or history of the dish along with a description of the actual dish. This can be really helpful for those who do not understand the traditional names and can get confused on what to order. For starters, we got the Chapli Kebabs which is a specialty of the region; lamb mince kebabs flavoured with coriander and dry pomegranate seeds. The kebabs were served with a mint raita and sliced cucumbers. Absolutely delicious and a must try...unanimously voted as the best dish of the day by all of us. There is a strong coriander flavour just as the description mentioned but it was beautiful and not too hot. We also got a piece of Chicken tikka for the non-lamb eater in the group. Unlike many other restaurants where tikka is served as skewers, here you get a quarter piece of chicken marinated with a flavourful tikka sauce and a generous squeeze of lemon. Well cooked, not too dry with good flavours. Next, we ordered some flatbreads/Naan along with a vegetarian and non-vegetarian side. For vegetarian, we chose the Paneer Jalfarezi and Beef Nihari for the non-vegetarian option. The flatbreads were a bit dry to my liking but not too hard. A bit of butter would have helped. The Paneer Jalfarezi was delicious and mopped up in no time at all. It is an excellent choice for vegetarians and also for anyone who is looking for a less spicy dish. Though I have heard plenty about Nihari (a traditional dish dating from the 18th century Mughal cuisine and now considered to be the national dish of Pakistan), this is my first time actually experiencing the dish. Since I have no prior experience, I won't claim it to be authentic etc...simply because I do not know. But what I do know is that it was delicious with the most tender and succulent pieces of beef I have ever eaten. The only complaint was that there were very few beef pieces and plenty of gravy. But nevertheless, a good dish. The final dish was the lamb biryani. Of course you have to sample the biryani when out at an Indian restaurant and this one didn't disappoint. The Pakistani style of biryani is much lighter than the typical Indian version; it is more flavourful but less spicy. And this makes it perfect as it does not fill you up completely allowing room for other dishes to be sampled. I wouldn't say this was a great biryani; average but not disappointing. If there's anything to fault with this place, it's the service. There's none to speak of......

We got this for our Takeaway Movie Night. I have always been…read morea big fan of butter chicken, but in all honesty Indian Cuisine was always very hit and miss for me. It is very unique food. And as I expected, the butter chicken packet blew me away, it was full of flavour, it was absolutely fantastic. It wasn't chunky or bulky. To make things even better it helped out the side dishes that came along with it, such as the Crackers and Naan Bread, as I dipped both of those into the Butter Chicken Sauce as well. The Samosa wasnt really for me, I havnt really warmed up to such a unique type of food. It wasnt bad, just didnt stand out, wasnt impressive but a tad bland. The qauntity of the rice was very impressive, I got heaps in that packet. I was picking at it for ages throughout the movie. It was nice, it was good. Perhaps I should of mixed some sauce into it to spice it up and give it the edge. That would of been a good idea on my part. As previously stated the Butter Chicken Packet was epic and I liked having alot of smaller side dishes to go through. It was a great takeaway experience. And worthy of giving 4 stars. I recommend this restaurant.
