We stopped here for a quick dinner on my last night in Melbourne. It was cold and rainy outside. The restaurant was full of people and there were a couple of small tables outside. The place is not large but seems to use space efficiently. The girl at the counter said we could sit outside or, if we wanted there was a table for two that we could have for 45 minutes inside. We sat inside, ordered quickly and we're served quickly as well. The food was really tasty and we finished in about 46 minutes, not really feeling rushed, but they definitely wanted the table back for the reservation. We had the chaat platter and mixed grill... to get a sampling of their offerings in our limited time. The tandoori chicken was really excellent. I suggest making a reservation. Also, my cell phone had just about zero reception once we hit the small alley where this place is located, so be aware if you're trying to meet someone there. read more

tasty Indian food but very small portions. I got the chicken tikka tandoori and there were only a couple small pieces of meat for $16. My friend had the bhel puri, samosa chaat, and mango lassi and enjoyed everything but found the food to be a little too spicy. read more

Quite standard indian food in a restaurant that feels like it's trying a bit too hard to create a niche when there really isn't one. Didnt quite get the aesthetic they were aiming for. That said the food was not too bad. Seating for groups was a bit limited; service was alright. read more

Delhi Streets - Indian Near Me - Melbourne, VIC

Beautiful space with lots of colour and a real Bollywood kinda feel. Staff are mega friendly. We ordered heaps of food to take-away, but I totally want to go back and eat in. I explored while I waited for my order to be ready. The samosa chaat was my favourite. So much flavour! Their curries are also delicious Not fatty or oily. Seriously nice. The masala dosa was also good, though I did like the curries a lot better. Next time I go I'm trying one of their wraps oh, and their chocolate m&m filled nann, because that sounds genius. I Recommend! read more

Delhi Streets - The open kitchen at Delhi Streets. - Indian Near Me - Melbourne, VIC

The naan will overtake your every shred of resistance to carbs. It's perfection!! Delhi Streets is located on what would initially seem like a very quiet lane, but in reality it's part of a strip of small restaurants. Inside you will be greeted by upbeat Indian music at lunchtime. A friendly busy waitress, food is prepared in an open kitchen, and it gets pretty busy at lunch. The menu is simple and conducive to making a good choice. Pick a thali, which is a platter, of either vegetarian or meat (or mixed) curries. That's the best idea and value here ($12 for a plate with curried chicken, lamb, rice, potatoes and salad). You get dhal bread to your taste - either plain or upgraded to garlic/cheese/onion. I can see why this place won a best cheap eats award. Nice variety, great flavour, BIG YUM! Delhi Streets gets 5 stars for being what it really is: awesome Indian food that's super authentic and well priced. Taste is on point, service is good, what more can one ask for? :-) read more

Katherine Place was a bit of a nothing laneway, but is being invigorated with a string of new businesses to brighten up the quiet end of Flinders Lane. Delhi Streets is one such place. A bright and colourful casual Indian eatery that is perfect for the CBD lunch crowd. The service is incredibly warm and the staff will eagerly take you through the whole menu if it's your first time. This is modern casual eating, with a range of both classic dishes (think thali plate specials and biryani) and fusion like wraps and naan bread pizzas. They also have some tapas style entrees with very modern options like the "skinny girl" lentil dumplings. I was advised that the wraps and pizzas were quite filling and they weren't wrong. Opting for the Chicken Tikka pizza, I got a hot, fresh naan covered in toppings for $9.50. An excellent feed for under $10 - just the right size for lunch (although I couldn't finish all of it!) The place is filled with Bollywood posters, brightly coloured stools and upbeat music - a fun and fast stop for lunch or casual dining. Note: Eftpos is only available for spends of $10 or more, so bring cash if you want to dine for less than $10 read more

What a wonderful surprise and great Indian food!! We decided to eat there because of the ratings here on Yelp. It didn't look like much, just some local Indian eatery. The first time we went, couldn't even get in! So we made reservations for the following night. Oh my God, it was so much better than I expected. The food was wonderful. Some of the best Indian food I've eaten since I was in India 15 years ago. Also, if you have peanut allergies (like I do), there are many dishes they can make without the peanuts. And they're careful about cross contaminating dishes. I had absolutely no problem. The restaurant staff were excellent, friendly and attentive. If you eat dinner, I recommend making reservations. Lunch may well be the same way, so again, I recommend giving them a call. It is worth it. Wonderful food and a good staff in a small & delicious local Indian eatery. read more

Overrated. As an Indian myself, was looking forward to the food. When I reached at 7:30 pm on a Friday, was promptly told that no seating is available without reservations (despite the fact that multiple tables were open). Wife and I decided to get take out instead. Prices are higher than shown on the pictures; understandable for any small business to increase prices once they develop a customer base. We were surprised that our food (Butter chicken thali and paneer dosa) was ready in less than 10 minutes. Still empty tables inside. We decided to eat outside on the stone steps like another group of 6 people. Food was neatly packaged but surprised by the little butter chicken and sambar relative to the naan/rice and paneer dosa respectively. Literally, the restaurant filled the two smallest containers with butter chicken relative to the mid sized container which had masala onions and mango pickle achar. We finished the butter chicken and sambar, left with plain rice and remaining dry dosa. Fortunately, the bird patiently waiting next to us had a healthy serving of plain rice. Walked by the restaurant while leaving and still empty tables. Still hungry (despite both my wife and I being less than 130 lbs!), we grabbed a gyro from around the corner. Finally, want to clarify the definition of a thali. Thali is used to refer to an Indian-style meal made up of a selection of VARIOUS dishes which are served on a platter... Serving butter chicken by itself is not a thali. Good food but waste of time and money. read more

Delhi Streets - Incompletely filled the two smallest sections with butter chicken. The middle sized container had pickle... Take out was not worth it. - Indian Near Me - Melbourne, VIC

What a great hidden find in Melbourne. I loved the modern/fusion twist on traditional and street food from India. The menu is vast with numerous street food and curry options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Portions are HUGE and prices are very reasonable. We ordered the bhel puri, samosa chat, aloo tikki chat, mixed grill, chole and puri, and the aloo tikki wrap. All of it was delicious and flavorful!! The only miss was the wrap- I would skip that and get the tikki chat instead. My only complaints are related to the restaurant size. It's extremely tiny and all of the tables are packed so closely together. There wasn't much space to squeeze into the booth side and you could hear all the conversations of the people next to you. The food also came out sporadically. Two people in our group were done eating before food for the others even came out. read more

Craving Indian food and especially street food, I ended up down a dark alley at delhi streets. Movie posters of classics adorned the walls, bollywood tuned infiltrated the ambience of the tiny establishment with bar stool seating facing an empty dark street and small wooden tables. The waitress quickly provided us with water in copper glasses and handed us some large menus. Entrees ranged from 5-10 bucks with thalis and dosas around 12. We were squeezed into a tiny table trapped between two other couples even though there was plenty of seating and she could have easily spread out the patrons so that we were not eating from each others tables or knocking over glasses, getting curry all over our sleeves etc. The food took forever to arrive even though we were one of the two couples that had ordered. However the food was well worth the wait. The pani puri - flour filled dumplings with stuffed potato, yoghurt and tamarind chutney drenched in cold minty, spicy but sweet water was sublime. Mm. The masala dosa with deliciously stuffed potatoes, crispy yet soft pancake, refreshing coconut chutney and delicious thick Sambhar left me wanting for more. The thali was a disappointment. Yes we got q delicious fluffy buttery crispy nan. The basmati rice was of top quality. But we only got two curries and they were not authentically Indian. Orange sweet butter chicken. Coles does it better. Lamb Rogan jhosh. Ugh again you can get it better as a frozen meal. Now for the five dollar desserts. For five bucks you can get two pieces of bouncy sweet gulabjamuns or the most delicious carrot halwa ever. Both tasted fresh unlike most Indian sweet shops where you know its been there for a while and has attracted flies. Pros Cheap Large portions Satisfying Delicious street food Cons Long wait Seating Non-veg thali Definitely the best Indian place I've visited to date in Melbourne. Oh and so clean. You can see the kitchen. So believe it. read more

An aromatic and colourful place that will definitely brighten up your cold winter's day. Melbourne CBD is lucky to have such a vibrant place - it's not just the vibrant vintage posters on the wall but also the vibrant flavours in their dishes that makes Delhi Streets a must try! We tried the: - Bhel Puri - Vegetarian Thai - Masala Dosa Crepe Fusion Oh so good!!!! I loved all the dishes and need to come back to try more mains and desserts! read more

Amazing Indian food spot. Came in on a busy Saturday night, great atmosphere and good service. Ordered about 5 dishes for 3 people with some drinks and only end up spending $50. The curries were the best I've had for a long time and the tandoori pizza was a hit! Highly recommend this place, but you will no doubt need to book as this place will become a huge favourite soon. read more

Visited March 2018. Got the butter chicken thali and it was delicious! Good bang for buck and the portion sizes are above average. Nice, modern Indian ambiance (remixed classic music with many movie posters painted onto the wall). We had a seat right in front of the kitchen glass and it was cool to see everything being made. Those naan pizzas looked SO good - maybe next time. A lot of gluten-free options here, as well. It is a smaller place, so seating is a bit limited. read more

This was a fun a quirky place with delicious food! The best Indian food that I have had anywhere. Don't come expecting the normal run of the mill/Westernised Indian that you see everywhere. This had so many TASTY and interesting dishes that we couldn't choose. The staff were really lovely too. You'll need to book as we went on a tues and it was full (a line out the door on other nights I'm told). Loved it! read more

Loved this place! We waited half an hour to get a table for 2 people and it was so worth it! Cheap food and everything had stacks of flavour. There was different stuff on the menu as well as what you would probably expect. I wish I lived closer I would definitely go back! Yum!!! read more

We discovered this place because it was near our hotel and we were sure glad we did. In two nights we tried 5 different curries, an Indian pizza and 2 appetizers. Most everything was wonderful and a couple just really good. A word of advice, since it is a small place and very popular call ahead for a booking. read more

This place is a breath of fresh air in Melbourne Indian fare. Instead of the predictable vindaloos and kormas this resturant has a range of dishes that I have never eaten before and they are divine!! I am vegetarian and i was so satisfied by the beautiful fresh flavours; my meat eater friends were just as happy with their food. There is a good and affordable drinks list and it was great to buy Indian Kingfisher beer. The vibe is funky and fun. The service got a bit mixed up but overall good. Difficult to find but once you've found this place you will definitely want to go back. read more

We had been here for dinner. It was very close to the Holiday Inn we were staying in. We had bhel puri, paav bhaaji and chicken franky. It was all very tasty and the portions were large. The place is small, but attracts diverse patrons. It is also well decorated with posters of famous Bollywood movies from the Golden era till the recent recent releases, similar to Kati Roll in New York. The staff was very diligent and friendly. read more

Went here today with my office folks to celebrate Diwali. Everyone echoed the same view- the food is awesome. The place has a very rustic Indian feel. It's not you regular Indian fine dining, but it caters to Delhiites like me who can't live without Chaat and don't want to travel outside city. read more

I would have given a 5 star but the serve is a bit lite on when compared to competitors. Menu is flavoursome but limited. Good lunch spot on the run. read more

Ordered briyani and Thala via deliveroo, and giving this a 3.5 for quick and efficient service (both on Delhi street and deliveroo's part). However the butter chicken was really disappointing, tastes too sweet and artificial. Have had much better butter chicken at any of the places I've gone to in Singapore. Briyani was way too spicy it covered up the flavour of the rice. However maybe it's our personal opinion, you might like it if you love really really spicy food and strong flavours. read more

The food was awesome and flavours were authentic for each dish! We had the 3 thali and Biryani! Down side was it was stone cold! Might be deliveroo but seems it sat for a very long time somewhere given we are only 1km away. Still very tasty thanks to the microwave. Will eat in next time. read more
