We’ve been coming here for many years. Food and service is always excellent
We loved the food, wine and service, will definitely be coming back.
Long time restaurant in Eltham. Lovely owners and food is very good - consistently good. Not amazing but very good! If you like Indian food it’s on the must visit list. Pricing very reasonable
Last night we decided to order Ubereats at around 8pm. Machan was a suggestion and we went with it! I loved the flavours of the tandoori but the pieces were quite small for $25.00, should have some cucumber and lemon to compliment the dish also. The sauces are tasty in all other dishes though! Definitely would order again for late night dinner!
Ordered ubereats over the weekend and gave this place a shot. We ordered naan, chicken tikka and chicken vindaloo. The naan and vindaloo were very good but the chicken tikka was very plain. The next night my sister ordered from here and got the chicken tikka which was delicious and had so much more flavour. There may be some inconsistency with the curries but I’m still happy to try their other dishes in the future
Everything about this restaurant is excellent. The service is friendly and prompt, the food is fresh and delicious, meeting our high expectations. We came here due to the reviews, and were certainly not disappointed. Coming back soon!
I chose Machan for my birthday dinner last night, a family member had told me it was s newly opened restaurant but upon arriving we realised it had been around for 15+ years. They’ve certainly perfected the chicken tikka over that time as it was delicious.
Unfortunately a 12 suburb wide power outage hit before we were even able to order but luckily they were still able to cook on gas and did a pretty stellar job in the pitch black darkness. We ate an unplanned candlelight dinner with the help of the iPhone flashlight which was a rather novel experience. The butter chicken paired with garlic naan was quite the treat. The chicken was super soft and the sauce nice and creamy.
We also had fish Amritsari, chicken korma, sheesh kebab, malai kofta and samosas. Everyone was overall quite impressed with the food, despite the difficult cooking conditions it didn’t show on the plate. Would be interested to see the place in the daylight next time!
Have been here heaps over the years, whether dining in or takeaway the food is always great. It's the only Indian place we keep going back too. The service is fantastic. The tandoori platter is a taste sensation.
Our local Indian restaurant, always looks after us well. 26 of us last night booked in for a set banquet. They had all the food on the table at the same time for our party, even though the restaurant was full. Ronan checks and looks after everyone, the service is great. You can order food to be mild or hotter. It’s reliable good food. If you live near here, give them a go.
Probably the best Indian food I had in Melbourne!!! Dal Makhani, Tandoori chicken are the one which I really love!! The best part was their staff!! So polite and really nice people!!
This restaurant is my in law’s favourite they know the owner and took me over 20 times there! So you know being a foodie this restaurant has an amazing food and service ❤️
Love this place. Absolutely best indian in the area. Lovely friendly staff as well.
I love this restaurant. I come here with my friends often and they are always so helpful while providing the most amazing food. I also ordered through Uber Eats and forgot to mention I wanted to alter one of their dishes. I called the restaurant and they were so kind and able to meet my request without any hesitation. Couldn’t speak more highly of Machan!
I just had dinner at Machan this evening. Always a brilliant experience. Great food, kind and helpful efficient service. I am proud to know the owner and to call it my favourite family restaurant in Eltham. I highly recommend Machan for an authentic and delightful eating out experience. The owner goes o er and above to make us feel welcome every time.
This place embodies quality and consistency. Food is delicious everytime. Our favourite is the vindaloo. The breads are always beautifully made. Mango lassi is a must try. The service is great everytime. The owner personally checks in with each table, don't see that happening nowadays. Very luck that this is one of my local restaurants...and it delivers!
Hospitality and Taste at its Best...One of the Best fine dining experience you can have in Melbourne at a reasonable price...Limited Veg options but both the mains we ordered were great in taste especially Malai Kofta...Paneer Makhni was not prepared in an authentic, it was more like Paneee Butter Masala but the Taste was great...Tried almost all the breads like Roti, Garlic Naam and Cheese Garlic Naam but Lachha Paratha is the Best...I would probably go back just to have that...Owner and the staff is very courteous...Ambience is nice as well...Not to be missed if you are around Eltham.
The best place to dine in, special greet to the owner super chill and fantastic service, he is always there to provide a awesome and tasteful food with natural indian food, and the price are so cheap as well for the quality
