Theeee Best food I will go Inshallah whenever I visit Melbourne I highly recommend to visit there once Good Effort :-)
Next level Food and Great service”Lamb chop mandi rice was so beautifully tasted !!!
I give BIlal restaurant AAA+ the front service is exellent and food tastes like as if someone has put so much love into it it feels like comforting home cooking. I hope this bussiness flourishes so much that they cant cope with demands :-) in sha Allah it becomes very successful.
Super tasty! Try the goat masala and butter chicken... Awesome naan bread, super we'll priced and very lovely service. Only bad thing is the TV on...But who cares when the food is so damn good. Oh the mango lassi is extremely tasty.
Excellent Dosa and idly! The best southern style Indian food I've had in Brunswick.
Ripper local outfit doing great work. 10 outta 10 will eat again.
Great little place for authentic Indian food. Butter chicken and tikka masala is a must for me. Along with their garlic roti and nasi goreng rice! Always a great feed!
My favourite place for Indian food
Their chicken or fish tikka masala is my favourite and their cheese or garlic naans are the best I've tried in Melbourne
Doesn't look very modern and it usually empty but that doesn't stop me from coming here

Having read mixed reviews we decided to order takeaway from Bilal. We are great fans of Singhs in Nicholson Street and felt quite adventurous trying an alternative. It was very easy to order online, and to pay with paypal - with free delivery over $25 we opted for this. We got an SMS with the delivery time (nearly an hour) and it arrived right on time. The menu is large and has some different items to your standard indian restaurant. We had Samosas which had lovely pastry and were very tasty. We followed this with a vindaloo and Tika masala, supported by a potato stuffed roti. All were delicious. The sauces were much lighter than Singhs, but felt like they were freshly made with fresh ground up spices. Having eaten our fill there was enough left for a light lunch the next day. All in all a lovely meal and we will explore more items on the menu.
Despite the fact that this place looks like the decor hasn't been updated in 30 years, it's pretty good. I guess it adds to the authenticity of it all, because half of the joints I went to in India looked exactly the same.
The first thing I noticed was how cheap the food is. Second thing, the menu looks even older than the decor. Your standard Indian favourites are all here and nothing is over $13. The vegetarian options are all sub $10. We had the Chicken Rendang and the Lamb Korma, which were both pretty good. The food is unpretentious and probably won't knock your socks off, but for under $13 a dish, it's great quality and excellent value. I would describe it as authentically ordinary Indian.
The staff were really friendly and made sure we were looked after.
If you're after good quality Indian that's dirt cheap, you can't really go past this place.

Best find ever! Between four people, we ordered:
- eggplant curry
- butter chicken
- beef briyani
- some fish dish (it was deep fried fish tossed in a slightly spicy sauce)
- roti garlic x2
- roti bom x2
The total bill came to under $57!
Of note, the roti bom isn't what you would expect. The condensed milk was basically poured over the roti, but it was still tasty.
Also, I'm Malaysian and I can assure you our meal was very delicious.
Bilal is Authentic & Tasty!. Such a nice restaurant on Sydney Rd, you wont regret coming down to Bilals. I just loved the variety of the menu which includes nearly everything you'd want from noodles, rice and curries. Bilal even has Dosa! not a lot of places serve so this is a great addition.
I tried the Beef Tikka Masala which was really nice, i usually love hot spicy food but this dish the hotness hit me like wow. Very nice and tasty it may look small but trust me its so filling. Ive tried the Plain Dosa & the Ghee Dosa both tasted like real authentic Dosas and the Ghee Dosa was really nice. The chutney & sambar were a nice side which you can dip the Dosa in.
Service was definitely really fantastic as there were big family groups in the restaurant but the food actually came in early to my surprise which was a huge plus as i was hungry.
Thanks Guys!
I just got takeaway eggplant curry and lamb pilaf. Both dishes tasted very fresh and full of flavour. There were lovely big tender chunks of lamb in the pilaf, just as I had hoped. Service was friendly. Looking forward to coming back one day to try their other dishes, especially the various types of roti, even though I don't live around this area.

Great food with great price. Very tasty n awesome food...with absolutely affordable prices n great customer service.
Recommended totally!
I came here for the Chicken Biriyani and was not disappointed - for $9 you really can't go wrong. Staff were very friendly too. Only criticism would have to be that the Gulab Jamun was a bit dry. Overall pretty happy with the place.
Malaysian dishes were OK, but the Indian dishes were really delicious. Fish tikka masala and mutton haleem both excellent. Very friendly service. Recommended!
Excellent!. I come to this restaurant with my family quite regularly and we are always very impressed by the food and service. The fish curry is amazing and if your looking for dosa, this is the place to go. The young waiter is always very attentive and polite. The prices are such good value if you ask me they could charge a lot more considering the quality of dishes.
Best place for Dosa. I ususally order from here when i crave a good dosa from eat now.
Although they take forever to deliver the dosa (and mostly south indian food) is really good.
i have tried their butter chicken and chicken manchurian, and to be honest i am not a fan of any of their other types of cuisine.
their chicken (meat) samosas are yum! and ill always be a regular here for their cheese dosas,
It has become my favourite takeaway spot since i just live ard the corner :)
Chicken briyani was okay...waiting for my lamb version right now in the restaurant. You get what you paid for at the end of the day.
Should give it a go!
Its good! Cheap and delicious! The surroundings are not super, but no Carey!
You cant go past Bilal for an authentic tasty Goat Biryani!!. The minute you feel like authentic Goat biryani for dinner...the next thing that should come to your mind is the Bilal restaurant on Sydney Road and you will not be disappointed at all!!!
For a party at home, we had ordered Goat Biryani, Chicken masala, vegetable biryani and veggie masala. The guests just loved it and have decided to use Bilal's catering services for the next party they'd host:) what's more...we had close to 5 serves of biryani left which we freezed and had it for 4 days straight...fresh as..when it first arrived for the party!!
So yes...next time you are planning to throw a party and like to have some spicy Indian food catered...ring up Bilal Restaurant and speak to Deen. Your friends will surely love it
Excellent Food; Everyone Must try!. I came with my friends and the shop was crowed which attracted me to eat inn, the service was really nice and on top of the food was highlight. Chicken biryani, roti parata, chicken manchurian, aloo gobi and crab masala.. all this food impressed me and my friends.!..
Lovely food. Great taste and service in sydney road! best food i had after 9 years!
Super ma!. Best restaurant food i had in Melbourne brings back my childhood memories!
Best indian restaurant in syd rd. I never had tasted this kind of food in melbourne. what kind of indian dishes you looking 4?? all available here with quality and tasty.Especially i like murtabak and nasi goreng.. lol... bilal restaurant rocks!! (Y) :)
Best food i had in my life. I recommend all of you to try this restaurant. 5/5 rating
best Indian, Singaporean and Malaysian cuisine in Melbourne.
i went with 6 friends, they all loved it and loved kothuroti, murtabak, byriyani, idly, dosa, tea tarik, rosemilk, quail fry and masala and best tandoori chicken.
hats off to the service and cheapest price compared to other restaurants around.
One of the best restaurants in Coburg to offer authentic Indian , Malaysian cuisine .. One can experience the flavours of South Asia in this restaurant..
Flavoursome and authentic. We will definitely be back. Eggplant curry is excellent!
The only Indian/Malaysian restaurant worth the time!
We are always satisfied with the meals, never left hungry. When we order medium spice it is actually spicey! Our usual order is the Chicken Kondattam, Tikka Masala, plain rice and a plain roti. The chicken is very good quality. It is always juicy and they never use those small, dry chunks of chicken breast like other restaurants do. 10/10
This place is a must visit . We tried lamb mandi, biryani and mutton chops the taste was so good and truly the customer service is one of the best the owner is so humble and nice .
Enjoyed every single bite of what we ate here. Loved the taste. Loved the gesture. Customer service wad above and beyond. Rice Mandi was moooouth watering. We travelled from far away to try as i heard alot about them. Happy to say it was worth coming here.
this restaurant is a hidden gem.. went to this place after ages.
ordered chicken 65
chicken vindaloo
hyderabadi dum biryani and the famous chicken murtabak with roti paratha
to my surprise chicken vindaloo was really best.
I wasnt expecting such flavours
2nd best was chicken murtabak..
I will be visiting this place more often and would love to try other dishes from the menu.
keep it up
