The best authentic South Indian restaurant in the North. It was a Saturday night and we were hogging for some good and spicy South Indian food, and suddenly Bismi Thamizh Unavagam (Bismi Tamil restaurant) crossed my mind. We went there around 12 am and ordered two plates of briyani - Chicken and Goat. Though they were about to close the restaurant, the owner (Abdullah) was kind enough to wait for us to have the briyani at the restaurant. The briyani was so flavourful and yummy which reminded me of good times of having briyani back home in Chennai. I was unable believe that I could get such a good briyani at 12 am in Melbourne. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try some authentic South Indian dishes, especially briyani. Try them and you wonβt be disappointed!!
Service has really improved - great Briyani. Today I had the Chilli Chicken Briyani again ... was superb - Chicken juicy and tender and perfect level of spice and accompaniments. Well done Sir !!
Yummy food served fast at a reasonable price. Definitely returning

The best indian restaurant in Melbourn
I never tried but I have look picture I think very good
I feel guilty for not remembering what this particular paneer starter is called. But trust me this was heaven. One of the best Indian starters I and my friends had. This was the panner version, and my friends bought the chicken starter. We loved and ordered the starter dish second time. As we loved this over the main curry that was served on the night the porathas were little oily but it was very tasteful.
The service is little bit slow, which could be improved.
Wonderful place to dine in. Exceptional customer service and finger licking delicious food. One Of my favourite restaurants indeed. ππππ
Absolute pleasure to eat here, had chicken korma, parathas and fish 65. Service was excellent , the food took some time but the staff was apologetic about the same. Will surely visit again.
Very friendly chefs. Open untill late night. They do accept to customise to orders to suite vegetarian options. Sometime they do accept some off the menu items upon request for regular customers. My partner is a fan of biriyani and chicken 65 here and i did ask them to deliver it around 12 in the night on his birthday and they were really happy to serve even during those odd hours. This is the kind of exceptional service that they deliver to regular customers. Love you guys

I ate there with my dad and it was alright, the service was okay and the food was good. It was very spicy and we were warned that it was very very spicy. I might go back.
Vibrant Indian flavours, plenty of chilli, incredibly cheap... This is my favourite restaurant in all of Sydney Road. Fish masala is incredible.
I see some people here have had problems with the service, but I've eaten here about 10 times and had no complaint. Maybe not the quickest, but I'm not usually in a hurry.
Excellent food !!!dragon chicken must try very hot and spicy. Service was quick and easy.....................................................
Wow yummy Briyani .. Service is quite slow but worth for waiting.. I like to suggest the management to improve the service.. But ambience is too good
Delicious Biryani ..!. Biryani was one of the best in this restaurant !! I also had roti and spicy chilli chicken curry it is delicious !! Reasonable price with quality in food. Will visit again..!
Deeeelish! I've been here many times, when it was next door and across the road. Food has been always consistent, but now even better than before. The roti is fantastic, the biryani great and ther curries packed with flavour. Well worth the wait.
For those who know and love their rotis, teh tarik and indian/malaysian food one of the best places in Melbourne. Food may take a while but it's well worth the wait. And it's reasonably priced too unlike many of the larger wannabes that are just overpriced and plain ordinary.
The staff were friendly, the food wasn't too bad. But had to wait 35mins for butter chicken.
Wow! F* yes delicious food! Just like Bharat, I had mutton buryani, spinach and cheese dosa, both perfect. Do yourself a favour and eat here
Authentic Malaysian Indian food here! Spice level is not Australianised, it packs a punch. Biryani with mutton was really good and oh, the teh tarik..hits all the right places.
The restaurant opens from 5.30pm-11pm, but they do takeaways and online orders till about 2am in the morning. Awesome for Malaysian mamak sessions or late night teh tarik cravings. :D
Definitely will go again!
Really tasty food!
I order this and surprisingly the portion is HUGE!
Everything is tasty, warm, and fresh!
My fav is the fried chicken.. rich of flavors and nice texture! Must try!
Under new management with a change of name Mezban Restaurant. Service is great, comes with a smile and some good advice on the spice/heat of your order
The food is fantastic and the serves are larger than normal. I had the butter chicken yummo and loads of chicken (it was not all just gravy).
Very cost effective
Will be a regular on my list. Will be back
