Yesterday, we visited Sheesh Mahal and thoroughly enjoyed our Indian lunch quickly prepared by an owner/chef from Delhi. The starters of Vegetable Samosas and Onion Bhaji were perfectly prepared. A chef’s special followed, Lamb Nihaari, consisting of chopped lamb shanks, slow cooked in aromatic herbs and spices. This dish was a first for us and we loved it! Full flavoured Chicken Madras, Peas Pulao, condiments, rice and hot fresh stuffed Naans completed our meal. We were very satisfied with the service, prices, entertaining conversation with the owner and loved the food. Can definitely recommend this restaurant and will most certainly return.
LOVED the chicken jalfrezi! The garlic naan was delicious too! We also enjoyed the chicken sagwala which was tasty! The great bonus is that all curries come with rice, and the lady is happy to refill the rice at any time!
Well-flavoured curry, friendly staff, ample portions.
Love the curries here - last night was our fourth visit in only a couple of months. I got the vegetables in mango sauce and my girlfriend got the butter chicken again and both were really nice. 5 star curries but I think the decor could do with some modernising.
I would highly recommend to try the tandoori chicken, it is the best in Brisbane!! The chef is super friendly. The naan are fresh out of the tandoor. The chicken chadhai is very good too!!
Authentic pakistani, indian food . Taste is delicious. Im lovin it

Excellent food and service
Amazing food especially lamb nihari. Love it :)
interaction of chef jahangir was excellent. he asked about what taste we like before preparing curry. very quick service from chef
Really testy and good food and service.
Jahangeer is very friendly men
It's nice place.
Wow so good went 2 nights in a row. Generous serves, freshly prepared to order. Veg and meat samosas are heaven! Delightful lady serving with friendly chat and smile.
Amazing place run by a wonderful man jahangir is one of the best and most caring restaurant owners i have ever met. More than anything else he wants you to go away satisfied and happy and his food is definitely up to the standard. His nihari and nan are especially awesome. He knows most of his customers by name and remembers them. I would come here again and again. Very very authentic food a must try.
Amazing curry from here, lovely man who runs it. The restaurant interior could do with some work but the food was so good I can’t complain
I love this place...we went there randomly and to tell you the truth I don’t remember the last time I ate so much. The hosts went over and above to make us feel at home. I loved how the chef Jahangeer brought out the curry paste on spoons for us to taste and asked us for our opinion and if we would like any changes...needless to say we didn’t...we felt we were over at a friends place for dinner...truly authentic cooking and authentic hospitality...I would give a 6/5 if possible...will definitely be going back often
Best place if you want home food and hospitality 👌
The owner was very generous with the portions and super friendly! Food was pretty good.

This place has awesome selections to choose from and the food tastes amazing. The best part is the awesome service which just makes the food even tastier. Recommended.
Amazing place with amazing menu and the best thing is Hospitality which made food more tastier. Good luck!
Wow.. Great guy with amazing food. Good location. Enjoy food in open ambience.
The food is really yummy.
Really lovely staff, even gave us extra food when we left.
Excellent taste and most authentic flavor I found compared to other restaurants in Brisbane.
We had a voucher, didn't use it as the food and service was well worth what we got. Amazing meal.
Food was great and so was the service. Zahangir as a chef was so good and friendly.
Great family restaurant , a best place to taste Indian food . A MUST GO PALACE . have fun.
Staff is extremely kind and food is really good

Personally loved the butter chicken wonderful taste this dish will definitely wake up all your exotic taste buds highly recommend if your in the area or looking for a nice family owned Indian restaurant. 👍🏽
Food was really good! Jahangeer’s service was really good!
Their curries are amazing and the service is lovely, also they make the best naan bread i've ever had
Have been going here for years! Beautiful authentic Indian and lovely service always! Can highly recommend the meat samosas and tandoori chicken with mint raita.
Really authentic Indian food.
Love the chef. His chicken kadhai curry and gulab jaman are my favorite. Definitely recommend this place to everyone.
If you're looking for delicious Indian food, don't miss Sheesh Mahal. I've eaten at alot of Indian restaurants around Brisbane and this place is great. Delicious food and friendly service makes this place shine. I ordered Aloo Gobi and it was a perfect blend of spices and flavour. You can't go past the Paneer dishes or Lamb shank curry with rice and naan. The owner is very friendly, attentive and the overall restaurant is 5 star in food and service. I recommend this place 👍
Really lovely little place. Always enjoy coming here for a affordable alternative to cooking at home. The atmosphere is very homely and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. We usually get curries, naan and drinks and are never disappointed. Whenever we get leftovers takeaway they are always happy to add a bit more sauce and rice. Always a great experience!
Really friendly staff and delicious food!
You got to meet the chef he’s a gem! He goes that extra for you! Food was amazing! Recommend the tandoori and for more of a traditional taste the goat biryani.
My partner and I had a very good meal here. Everything was delicious, with a very authentic feel. The lady who served us was lovely too. One of the best Indian meals we've had in Brisbane - highly recommended.
Both the food and service were outstanding. Love the lamb shank curry and the garlic & cheese naan. Just a little room for improvement - the cleanliness of the environment can be a bit better. But overall is a very nice experience, will definitely come back with more friends.
One of the best restaurant with quality taste and outstanding service. In love with their food taste❤️💖❤️💖
Fresh cooking, cordial reception, yummy Indian authenticate dishes.
Specially Lamb and garlic naan are super hit.
Nice parking option - surely we like to go there again.
Food was soo tasty . Will recommend everyone to have food once over theree friendly staff .
My husband and I had been searching for delicious and authentic Indian in Brisbane for 2 years and we found this restaurant finally last week. Jack ‘the owner ‘ and Beena were very attentive.We went back there tonight again! We will be back there weekly!
Great value, cheesy garlic naan was amazing! We ordered butter chicken and beef vindaloo. It came with a large bowl of rice, plenty for two people. Flavour was great. So great that we scraped the bowls clean. Also, plenty of meat, compared to other places. The owners were lovely.
The chef ‘Jack’ is very friendly and accomodating. The food is well priced for the amount you get. I recommend dining in to get the full experience from chef to plate.
Very nice food and excellent service. Good value for money and the food is very authentic. Would recommend kadai chicken masala and lamb samosa
Honestly the best Indian restaurant we've been to in Brisbane. Not only is the food incredible but the service is lovely too. The owners always go above and beyond for us and would highly reccomend to all!
Food was awesome!!worth trying.
Staff were friendly and quantity of food was sufficient enough for the price.definetly recommend this place.
Very Good Place, Nice Service and Homely feel. Many indian varieties for your taste buds 👍😃. Friendly people, clean and prompt service. Please do visit ones.
Being new to South Brisbane, I had this big craving for Indian food. I saw very good reviews for sheesh mahal restaurant. So one Sunday evening I decided to have a walk to explore this restaurant. It was little away from main road, but located along few other restaurants & ideal seating. The receptionist was very cordial & helped me in deciding the items , I ordered 3 rotis & mutter paneer. She asked me about spice requirements & was courteous to served roasted papodoms (would have been even better if they served it with mint chilli curd chutney). Once the curry was getting ready they even gave me a sample to check if spice was was ok.
Further once the portion was served it was huge & sufficient for 2 persons.
It was delicious, but slightly more oily.
The best part was chef came out enquired about taste & offered me rice & subjugate as parcel.
I would recommend this restaurant to all genuine food lovers to give it a try. I will not guarantee great taste but I assure you that hospitality shall not disappoint you.
Just visited this restaurant with my family. Would definitely recommend this place. Superb food and the hospitality was great. Anyone looking for Vegetarian Indian food, definitely visit this place!
Really love eating here! Super delicious food and really friendly staff!! Highly recommend! Try the mango lassi! One of my favorite restaurants in Brisbane.
Best indian restaurant in brisbane! The friendly staff providing great service along with the delicious food is just the perfect combination. Ordered 8 different dishes and all of them were on point 👌. Would love to visit again.
The best india restaurant in brisbane . Extremely good service and authentic indian food. The food is consistently good each time . I visit the place every time i am in brisbane.
Excellent indian food, Have eaten here several times, different dishes each time but all are consistently delicious. My favourite Indian restaurant! Around Brisbane 👌👌👌👌👌
Best Indian restaurant with Authentic Indian taste. Sheesh kabab and Nihari are the top dishes of restaurant. I visit the restaurant 3-4 times a week. Best part is that the deliver too.
Hi, i just had goat curry here and the taste was superb made by Surinder Singh Chandi curry's specialist. I suggest to all of you guys should try and taste it.
Thanks
Very good customer service, and allows a lot for your money- offerd sides and refills for free, as well as being accommodating to a wide variety of customers
overall a great restaurant
Very nice and lovely friendly 🙏🏻 love the potions and my partner just in love with their goat curry
I m vego i love their shahi paneer and Naans are really good soft
One of the best Indian restaurants we’ve found in Brisbane. The portion sizes are always so generous and we always seem to receive awesome extras with our meals (papadums, rice, sauces etc). The menu has a huge variety of meat and vegetarian dishes, and great customisation options that cater to any dietary requirements. The service is also so great, Jakh and the staff are kind and attentive and so so quick. Even though we’ve moved further away now we still drive in to go here, can’t recommend enough!!
I had paya at this wonderful place and couldn't stop myself from posting a review of it. I would highly recommend this. One of the best Indian restaurants in Brisbane.
Very friendly staff with excellent food and service,
Liked my visit there on my short trip to Brisbane.
Good food and great value for money...
Love the place, delicious food!! Chicken Tikka was just amazing. It's not just the food, the service of the staff with smile just made me feel special!! Keep up the good work with smile!!
Amazing food for all tastes and dietary requirements - gluten-free, dairy- free, vegan - and very affordably priced.
I'm always happy to order from here, the service is wonderful and I've never been served a bad meal. Definitely recommend this restaurant.
As always.Good food and great hospitality... Chef Jahangeer knows how to make delicious food and his friendly behaviour make the atmosphere more interesting.
'Jack' and team have nailed this authentic predominately takeaway Indian Diner to the wall best in BNE south east at a price point beyond value for money.. I live 30mins away and happily drive backwards towards work at Oxley on my days off to pickup takeaway... meat and sauces note are freshly prepared for each dish not blended like most in BNE.... Both of us have over 30 years of currie fascination and eating Indian over 5 x states many other destinations and this is in my top three curry takeaway temples in AUS by far... if u think Bain Marie u know food in the window takeaways are the go then u need a fast reality adjustment and drive no matter how far to the Sheesh Mahal Temple of curry n naan and spend 37.00 on two dishes n fork out the extra for garlic naan and let Jack rip u a new vindaloo dish and slip into Indian gastronomical heaven.... go now ;>
very good food always get lunch from here. very good service and delicious food. we will surely come for dinner sometime with our staff members. specially chicken curry and kadhai paneer with butter naan bread. thanks again for your great hospitality
If I am to rate the food and service, it is definitely 100 % up to my expectations. Food is tasty, delicious and authentic. Will definitely come back soon.
Good food, lovely hospitality. Jack was very accommodating and generous with the portion sizes. Definitely value for money! Would recommend checking out this place.
Fantastic restaurant and delicious food. Lamb shank Curry is one of my favorite curries I have tasted there. The chef named as sunny arrived from Rajasthan, India ...provides the new recipe curries as well as beef nihari in our dinner which makes our dinner so yumm..and delicious too. Lovely place for the food...love their service too👍 .
Excellent food and fast,friendly top notch customer service ..highly recommend for families...great locations for parking as well ..
Cheers fellas ...👍👍👍👍👍
Great food and customer service, Palak paneer and chicken curry was authentic indian taste. Chef and staff are very kind to customers and serve is more than enough and never disappointed at all.
Highly Recommended, exceptional ambiance, real taste of home, and highly polite and professional staff. Also the food is really amazing and highly recommended.
Fantastic service and wonderful food. The host was friendly and offered extra rice for us to take home with our leftovers if we wanted. The portions were a really good size with a perfect meat:sauce ratio. The shahi paneer, cheese and garlic naan and milk dumpling dessert were all particularly delicious. It’s a very homely, relaxed vibe and we’ll definitely be going back!
An awesome restaurant with great food and a very warm owner. Most dishes I’ve tried are absolutely delicious especially the biryani and beef nihari. Recommended for big gatherings as well. Catering for a large group was highly crowd pleasing.
The food here is the closest you’ll find to the spicy Indian and Pakistani cuisines back home. The chicken korma and kadhai are a must try! The starters are mouth watering (sheekh kebab especially)
The food was great, especially the nahari and seekh kebab. The chef is very accommodating and welcoming. Overall great experience and would recommend this restaurant to anyone.
everything is awesome from dining to pay a bill.
great staff and delicious food.
i ate butter chicken and naan that was my incredible experience. its too yummy. thanks
This restaurant is so amazing. The curries have authentic indian taste which is very hard to get in Brisbane. Every curry does not have the same base and is different. Would say that if you want to experience good Indian food please go here. I know how much I have struggled to find a good place and finally this is my go to restaurant if I want to immerse my taste buds in the rich flavours of India. Thank you Mr. Jahangir!!
Such a nice experience and good service. Best value of money and u always have something extra. Excellent staff . Highly recommended 😁 five stars and they deserved it.
Outstanding service! The owner went above and beyond, even topping up our meals with extra sauce and meat when we were ready to take them home. The goat stew was delicious, and the classic butter chicken was tasty with good pieces of meat in both. The rice was fluffy and fresh, and the naan breads were amazing - not too oily like some other places.
We were also grateful for how understanding the owner and staff were when our little boys started paying up - they didn’t care and were just talking to them normally.
Absolute favourite new Indian restaurant. We’ve only ever ordered takeaway from there, but will now definitely eat in more!

Very friendly staff; good size portions and customised to taste and appetite. Cosy atmosphere to dine in or a quick take away. Keep coming back :)
Amazing and delicious food, very friendly staff. Nice location. Free papadums. Short waiting period for food. Totally recommend. Will come again. Just lovely.
Excellent place for desi food. Authentic taste and great service. May be not very fast but good enough for us to keep coming back. Halal meat offered.
We ordered Nihari and this is the best we had in Brisbane. Chikken tikka and tandoori fish were good as well. Owned by Mr. Jahangeer and he is a wonderful guy. Would be coming back and try more variety.
I accidentally tried this restaurant as my favorite Indian restaurant in Brisbane was closed at the time. And so this is my favorite from now on. It was really amazing. I ordered goat biriyani and it was really delicious with juicy meat. Try this goat biriyani, which is the magic of chef Jahangeer, if you're a biriyani lover. I'm often going to visit this place for this juicy goat biriyani.
Best restaurant!!! Must try it guys !!! Especially the owner ❤️❤️
