I enjoyed eating at lemon chillies. The food was tasty and good portion sizes. I ordered the chicken tikka and chilli paneer. Both did were great. Had some butter naan and hot and hour soup. The soup was not on the menu but the chef was happy to prepare an order which was nice. I would be happy to eat again here. Friendly staff.
Visited this restaurant recently. Don't be put off by the simple decor We were surprised by the breadth of the Indian menu and the quality of the food. Very much traditional tasty food as if straight out of India.

Today's much anticipated Indian Kerala lunch with my friends and fellow foodies Kan Do and his wife! Arriving early I read a few Zomato reviews on the restaurant before walking in and I see my guests have arrived before me.
Our ever resourceful Kan Do has already ordered our lunch. Great, not long to wait for our spicy feast! Joseph the owner/manager provides us with cold water and a plate of fresh poppadoms with dips. A nice snack while we are chatting.
Soon our lunch order is served. The Kerala Paratha (similar to Roti Canai), is hot off the pan, light and fluffy. Perfect and the best I have tasted in Brisbane. Rating: 5.0/5.0
The Masala Prawns are very fresh and the gravy is spicy and so tasty. Rating: 4.5/5.0
The Stir Fried Kerala Beef overwhelms me with the taste of several different fragrant spices. Prior to serving, a handful of curry leaves is tossed among the beef cubes by the chef. I squeeze a wedge of lemon over the beef and this dish is perfection. Rating: 5.0/5.0
The Kerala Red Fish Curry is usually cooked with barramundi says Mrs Kan Do. The chef today substitutes Atlantic Salmon and the large cubes of fish are a tad dry. Fortunately, the red curry gravy makes the fish palatable. Rating: 3.5/5.0
The Yellow Lentil and Spinach Tadka is served piping hot and being a meat lover I am surprised at how much I enjoy this vegetarian dish. Rating: 4.5/5.0
We finish our spicy meal sharing some cool Indian desserts. Mrs Kan Do selects the Cardamom Kulfi (an Indian ice-cream) and I choose the Mango Sago Pudding. The desserts are nicely presented, delicious and refreshes my palate.
Thank you Mr and Mrs Kan Do for sharing this Sunday lunch with me and for giving me an education on Indian cuisine. I will be returning soon with more friends. Well done Lemon Chillies!
Have come here a number of times now and the food never disappoints! The flavours of the dishes are rich and beautiful, everything is well done. Good service (although being the only table maybe too much focus on us). The chef also came and spoke with us too. Would come here again even if it is really quiet
Great food and great atmosphere! Been here a few times with my family and it has been consistently good. Always feel very welcomed by the staff.
Ambiance (A)
This restaurant provides a relaxed setting with its simple decorated interiors. Cert clean, neat and with the right amount of lightning.
Food and Beverage (F&B)
There's no specific dishes to mention. I've been here 3 times and everything I've had was satisfying. I must comment that curries were authentic and flavourful. Naan breads are on point. All and all, I'd have to say Lemon Chillies had set the standard for Indian/Nyonya cuisine in Brisbane. In terms of value, portions are decent as quality is superb.
Service (S)
Floor staff as well as the manager /co owner was very attentive, friendly, and polite. They would heck on you and your food, provide water and attend any needs.
OVERALL
A : 5/5
F&B : 5/5

I had previously done a limited review based on one dish I had tasted here which I liked, this time we went for a fuller meal for lunch and it was very good.
It usually makes me cautious to see Thai, Nyonya and Indian food on the single menu, but considering that they are tucked away in a quiet location I can understand they might be trying to cater for as many people as possible. Having said that, I would recommend the Kerala (Indian) dishes here, and their menu is starting to look more Indian these days.
We ordered the masala barramundi 'fish fingers', the masala prawn curry, the dhal (lentil) spinach tadka, rice and Kerala beef fry with Kerala paratha (the last two items are not stated on the menu but are available).
The 'fish fingers' came out first. They were well fried, spicy and delicious and went well with the lime and pickled vegetables salad and the spicy aioli type sauce. I feel the fish would have been an even better accompaniment with our main courses. I rate this dish a 4.5
The masala prawn curry had excellent flavour with excellently cooked good quality prawns, it would have been nice if it had been a little spicier and it lacked a touch of salt for my taste. Nevertheless, I rate this dish a 4.
The dhal spinach tadka was fine and flavourful enough for what it is, however, it could have also done with a little more salt. I rate it a 3.5.
The Kerala beef fry and parathas were excellent. A touch more crushed black pepper for the beef fry would have made it even better, but as it was I rate this dish a 4 to 4.5. These are the best Kerala parathas I have had in Brisbane (better than Pepper Bite), they were soft, well cooked and not oily.
Overall, an excellent and satisfying lunch. These guys make some good quality food.
Found this amazing restaurant tucked away in a small shopping complex. Food was great and amazing presentation almost a 5 star quality presentation minus the 5 star price tag. Turns out the chefs who run the local business used to be in 5 star restaurant catering in past. Would highly recommend this place .... Will be back for sure.... They also do small business lunch meetings and conference ... will look at booking my next meetings there.... thanks
Delicious Indian and Thai :-) The Vege Samosa was perfectly created for a melt in your mouth texture and divine taste. The Dahl was very tasty and the tofu and mushroom dish was also amazing :-) The service and presentation was so warm, fun and kind they knew just how to make all feel loved and welcomed.. A delightful experience thank you xo
Restaurant was recommended by my Kerala friends. Service was fast and we enjoyed the Kerala cuisine.
Great taste and customer service. Meals and pothi soru are worth the price. Chicken 65 is my favourite so far.
Missed giving 5 stars rating just because fish was not that fresh and tasted like frozen ones.
This was our second time for a buffet here and both times the food and service was excellent. We were pleasantly surprised by the variety and quality of food. Everything was amazing and super yummy 😋
Delicious food and good service by the amazing staff.
I visited Lemon chillies multiple times and tried many dishes and enjoyed all of them. Will definitely visit again.
Highly recommend this restaurant and lookout for their specials.
My kids, wife and myself really like this restaurant.
The food is delicious with the right amount of spices and ingredients.
The staff are also friendly and welcoming.
The food is Halal as well 😁
