Very nice experience and Really taste in Indian food
A curry and a beer is synonymous with a good night, but not so much with squeezing into a pair of skinny jeans the next day. . Enter It's Mirchi Healthy Indian in the heartland of Brisbane's funky Paddington scene. This restaurant caters to the health conscious, whatever than means for you. Low-carb, low-sugar, vegan, dairy-free, vegetarian, nut-free and organic options are all available. These guys can omit anything.
We dined here on Saturday night, being a party of 5 with two meat-eaters, two vegans and a vegetarian. We all loved our meals. The flavours were delicious and robust, the rice portions were generous and the breads were also excellent. The waitress was attentive and helpful, including making sure that the vegans were well catered for with accompaniments. The restaurant also had a lovely atmosphere with furnishings and lighting. We will be back for sure.
I was a bit sceptical of what healthy Indian would be like, but this place is delicious and highly recommend! We had a variety of dishes and all delivered. Chicken tikka masala was my favourite and the garlic naan a must too.
Had a lovely dinner here. We ordered the butter chicken, masala eggplant, gluten free garlic naan, garlic naan, cumin rice and tandoori chicken.
The tandoori chicken was too dry for my liking, but the other dishes were really delicious. While its a tad on the pricier side, it's still reasonable for the quality of the food served. The staff were really nice too and came to our table frequently to check on us.
Absolutely delicious gluten, dairy and sugar free butter chicken. You honestly cannot tell. Guilt free and the servings they give you is very generous! I will definitely be back. :)
This place is fantastic! Caters to all dietary requirements offering multiple vegan/vegetarian/gluten free options and the food was absolutely delicious. Great service and ambience. Will definitely revisit!
What a lovely find. A short walk from where we are staying while visiting Brisbane. My GF daughter was in raptures when I told her that ALL their curries and mains are gluten free. Then, when she saw that they had GF nan bread, she thought that she'd died and gone to heaven.
Healthy options are part of the image and are thus lived up to. Other indicators being roasted instead of fried popadums and being given a choice of regular, free range or organic chicken.
The entrees onion bahjis and chicken tikka were both good. Home made lime pickle was great but could have been spicier for my taste. 3 of our 4 mains were delicious. The mango chicken, korma, and masala. My Goan fish curry didn't quite sit right with my palate. But to be honest that probably says more about my taste than their food. To the great credit of the waiting staff and kitchen, when I asked for some cut chilli to spice up my dish - I'd ordered medium but definitely got mild - the waitress immediately offered to replace it. Well done. Who knows if it was the same but with added chilli - but to be honest who cares!! Tasted fine and problem solved.
Thanks for a pleasant evening. Heartily recommended for anyone who fancies a tasty and healthy Indian meal, especially if you need gluten free options.
Oh and it's also very reasonably priced.
Great indian. Went with a large group and the service was great and friendly and very accommodating for us. Had the panneer butter masala and some naan. The naan was honestly the best I've had in Brisbane.
Really enjoy the curries from here. Ability to order online makes life easy. Fairly standard Indian fare however notice the curries are slightly less oily and thicker than elsewhere.
Amazingly flavoursome food. I usually run with the butter chicken, which is deliciously tender and always hits the right spice point. There is a super range of curries though, which keeps me going back.
The garlic naan and samosas are well worth a run if you are feeling hungry too.
Friendly service rounds out what is a tremendous Indian dining experience .
We have been getting takeaway from here for months now. There staff are always polite and helpful. The food has always been of a high standard.
Today there eftpos was down. They apologised and when I said we did not have cash they said take your meal and we will call you later for payment.
When they call they apologised for disturbing us during our meal, there was no demand for payment they just ask if we can come back and pay some time. Of course we did and when paying again was followed up by an apology for the inconvenience.
Thank you for your service and your hospitality.
AMAZING. It was HEAVENLY. Best curry meal I've had in a while and we eat a lot of curry. BIG FANS. I will come here again and again and again and again.

So I was informed that this place was healthy and vegan, but I got there and ate like 10 meat curries.
So life is what you make it, I just like mine made of meat.
I shall return, but seriously the restaurant layout is so bad it must of been done by a vegan.
Food was lovely - owner just has lovely, lots to choose from all very healthy and fresh! well done, see you soon! The Chai (Indian made the way it should be) was great!
had takeaway from here. We had several mains and all were great. The food tasted almost like authentic in-India food. Thats pretty different from the usual thick generic gravy/find the meat stuff most Indian restaurants do. We loved it, we'll go back for sure.
have only ever ordered delivery from here, but have never been disappointed. it does taste healthy and fresh. you don't feel super full and bloated after, which is rare for Indian food.
Been there a couple of times. Really tasty food at reasonable prices and friendly service. It's BYO too which adds to the appeal because hate paying a huge premium for a drink.
Great high quality food, probably the best Indian in Brisbane
Great food, good service. Love this place. Been there few times. Their coconut beef is mouth-watering. Good service. Highly recommended and I'm an Indian.
A must!. It's Mirchi it not only delicious and beautiful but they have such a nice environment too!
I love the onion bhaji and chilli pakoras, and highly recommend the fish/prawn curries! Yum yum.
My partner and I love going here, they are really personable and lovely and want you to enjoy yourself to the fullest!
Awesome curry and naan. Trying out all the old wives tales for inducing labour, and was looking for a very hot indian curry. Hadn't been here before, but based on the good reviews trekked over to Paddington for an 'authentic' very hot curry. Was so happy we chose this restaurant, all the food was cooked to order, onion bahji were crisp and fresh, naan was the perfect thickness and texture. The main event was a very hot rogan josh and a medium palak paneer. Both were amazing, loved that both were very flavourful with the heat coming afterwards. Even if the baby continues to procrastinate over its debut, it was well worth the 25min drive for a fantastic curry. Almost neglected to mention that the lady who runs the place is very attentive and friendly.
Nobody can cook seafood like they can. Mirchi, is a very clever take on Indian food. The recipes are very traditional in one respect but light and refreshing in another. Doesn't leave you feeling heavy afterward like rich Indian food does. I love all the seafood dishes because I don't get seafood that beautifully cooked even in seafood restaurants. They have an extraordinary vegetarian and gluten free menu, pages of them in fact. Yes I am a big fan my family and I now eat there often
I love It's Mirchi. Fresh food, friendly staff, lovely decor and most importantly the fish curry was amazing!
Amazing food with personal & friendly service. Perfect for vegetarians and anyone following an ayurvedic diet. We're regulars now!
It's Mirchi & it's Brilliant.... Their curries are by far the best I have tasted in Brisbane along with their hospitality!!! Go there for a great feed
We visited for the first time last night - and we were very impressed. The food was delicious (particularly liked the lamb saag) - the garlic naan was amazing!
The service was great, the ambience was good considering it was a quiet Monday night. Will definitely be back.
A real find!. Dined here Friday night with friends. I have thanked them already for bringing this recently-opened establishment to our attention. While the décor and pretty much open to street design of the shop aren't particularly appealing, we were more than pleased with the service, the food, and the bill. Urvashi and Akshay are into fresh, fragrant Indian cuisine, with no particular regional accent. They seem to have accomplished this extremely well. We have a regular set of dishes which we order, and this time they came with a slight twist which we thoroughly enjoyed. The dahl, in particular, and the entrée onion bhaji and crispy chicken were standouts, while the tandoori chicken was a little bit of a let-down. Really looking forward to goat being added to the menu soon. Considering it's BYO and the bill was around $30 per person, we'll surely be back.
The prawn curry is out of this world! Best Indian curry I've ever had. Friendly and fab service. Loved it
BEST BUTTER CHICKEN. This place sells best butter chicken. i have been to this place today and it was very awesome . the ambience was very good . I enjoyed dinner today. indian bread was really good.keep it up!
Best indian cusine. This is the best indian restaurant i have been in Brisbane. there butter chicken is simply awesome . I'm visiting this this restaurant once in week and enjoy there service with the best naan bread in brisbane.i just love it
Great Indian Finally. There are many poor Indian restaurants in Brisbane. This is not one of them. A new restaurant, so has yet to be found by the masses. 3 entrees, 4 mains and all were loved, next time we will try the seafood curries that are house specialities. Expect all the regular Indian curries, done well. Nice restaurant space to with friendly staff and chef.
At Last....a great Indian Restaurant in Paddington. Lovely surroundings, attentive staff and great fresh food with nice menu. Off to a great start for this new Indian restaurant in Paddington. Good value and drinks menu also very reasonable. We will be back and this could become our local!
We loved this place! Indian cuisine at a very fine level. The restaurant looks good, and the new open plan space comfortable and not noisy.
We really enjoyed our meal from the simple menu, and our compliments to the chefs on the freshness and tastiness of our dinner. We took our own wine, but could easily have found something on the inexpensive wine list. Good luck with your new restaurant, we will bring friends next time!
It's ok better than some other Indian around the place but I found the curries very oily and they had that super shiny slick look to them. Flavours were good and you could taste the spice. I really don't know why another Indian restaurant opened in this area as there must be at least 6 or 7 within in a 2km radius. They will have to really deliver in service and consistency to survive.
Worth Goan here!. Naan bread was light - the spinach and cheese was especially good. Tried the Goan fish, lamb saagwala and chicken korma - all had great depth of flavour. We had take-away but the restaurant looks well set up.
It's Mirchi was spectacular, the service, the food and the atmosphere were just devine. I definitely recommend dropping in next time your in paddington.
My partner and I have been on the hunt for good Indian in Brisbane for such a long time and last night we were not disappointed!! It’s Mirchi gave us such a wonderful dining experience from the beautiful service to complimentary rice to the delicious, authentic Indian flavours… we were amazed! It’s so hard to find healthy but delicious Indian cuisine but wow, what a fantastic job! We will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family and will be making It’s Mirchi our regular Indian date night spot!! Can’t wait to come back.
This place is AMAZING. After trying many Indian restaurants around Brisbane (and being a vegetarian) I’ve had many average and even some terrible experiences. Reviews looked great so we thought we’d give it a try. My girlfriend & I were blown away by the food quality, the flavour and how reasonable the price was at It’s Mirchi Healthy Indian. Definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had! Customer service was 10/10 and they even gave us complimentary rice for free even though we didn’t order it. The staff were so polite & friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. I think we’ve found our new favourite place to eat!

This is by far the Best Indian I have tasted in Brisbane! (This is coming from someone who has owned Indian restaurant myself). The flavours are so authentic and healthy. Great service too. I won't even mind to pay a little extra given the amazing quality of the food, great service, cozy ambience and the location. My only suggestion to the team would be cook the rice a bit more- steamed rice was a tad bit uncooked. Otherwise all Soo great!!!
Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend a visit. Good portion sizes for 2 people and an extensive range of dishes. We enjoyed the plant based options and were definitely not left hungry for choice.
I came just by my self and realy enjoed my time there. Realy good food, the waitress are really kind and will always check if every thing is good. The place is also really nice and cosy. Defenetly a good place to go.
Food was absolutely delicious, one of the best Indian restaurants in Brisbane. I will be definitely coming back. Thank you for your warm and friendly service too!
Staff and food here were great, our waitress was always more than helpful and very friendly. Lots of options and doesn't have that oiliness to it that is common with fast food indian places.
The inside was really nice too, I had been meaning to come here for awhile due to the good selection of vegan options, will definitely be coming back.
