We came here for a very late dinner and glad they are open until 11pm! We were the only ones there but it's Tuesday so whatevs but their food is great! We ordered the chicken biryani and my husband really loved it and even said it tasted better than the ones we always visit back home in Auckland. I ordered the Indian butter chicken and I really enjoyed that one also. The price is not cheap so I was expecting rice to go with it so that was disappointing and chicken is not enough. š© I would still come back though š

Tandoori flames is a nice Indian restaurant located in West Footscray. We started our meal with spinach/kale pakora and tandoori prawns. They were both delicious and really got our appetite going. The prawns came on a hit sizzling plate which made the onion a little charred and gave it a really nice aroma. For mains, we had the butter chicken and lamb korma. The butter chicken has got to be the highlight of our meal. It was buttery, tasty and went really well with the naan bread and saffron rice.
Absolutely love the indian food at Tandoori Flames. The restaurant has a nice and modern decor and the staff is friendly.
We had the tandoori mix grill, butter chicken and a variety of roti and they were really yummy. Really enjoyed our meal here
Tonight we dined in at Tandoori Flames along Barkly St in West Footscray. This restaurant has been renovated and reopened since May this year and has a sister establishment in South Kingsville which is also undergoing renovations.
The fitout was done tastefully and was quite subtle and the restaurant felt roomy not squashy like some establishments we had passed on the way here. The far end of the room had well stocked bar with great potential for some excellent cocktails.
While we chose from the menu we ate light crunchy papadarms and a delicious mint dipping sauce.
I was driving so a mango lassi was as adventurous as I got tonight and Kellie enjoyed a kingfisher beer and eagerly awaited our feast. Cocktails seemed very affordable.
Our entrees came out with a serious sizzle as our mixed grill tikka platter arrived, complete with tender chicken tikka, delightfully lemony tandoori and smokey meats, wonderful flavour and textures.
Our Veggie samosa has a lovely pastry and interestingly the flavours of one was quite different to the other...more lemony and keeping us guessing.
After a pause we indulged our senses again in some curry delights. This time
Saag paneer, Punjabi butter chicken, garlic & plain Naan and rice.
The Punjabi butter chicken was supposed to be a little spicier than your standard butter chicken but I ordered medium heat so didnāt notice much of a difference. That said this dish was melt in your mouth tender, sweet, with rich tomato, creamy and a nice spice without much heat at all.
The Saag paneer, another mild curry came with a firm cottage cheese and a purƩe of spinach. We enjoyed mopping up this curry with our naans and I loved combining both the sauces into a satisfying blend.
The night ended on a high, a sugar high that is as we couldnāt say no to the offer of dessert. I ordered the Shashi pistachio, this Kulfi with saffron and cardamom was super refreshing and was packed with a spectacular level of cardamom, a real winning dessert. We snuck a single Gulab Jamun doughnut in as well and loved this warm syrupy dumpling.
Such an enjoyable Friday night. Thanks so much for having us in
Very friendly staff, great food at fair price, clean and nice ambience
Eatclub is just plain cheating. This place was great. Dahi Puri was nice. Crunchy with a hint of sweetness and a nice touch of spice.
The highlight was probably the naan. It was utterly basted in garlic butter (or ghee?), It was dinner licking delicious.
Lamb vindaloo and butter chicken were good, not the best, but it's up there.
Extremely likely that I'll be back here again.
Really enjoyed my time at the recently renovated Tandoori flames. The staff were attentive and friendly. The flavours of the curries are quite refined and not too heavy. Iād recommend the Fish Malabar curry if you were dining here.
It just re-opened start of may 2019, absolutely can not rate high enough. Delicious good quality food! Absolutely best butter chicken I have had in Melbourne.
Lovely lovely people and amazing food.
Nice hot spicy Indian cuisine. Ambience was nice and staff was courteous. #BasilandGarlicNaan #AlooChat #MalaiMethiPaneer. It's a nice Indian place
Would recommend! Great service, great food, great prices. Clean and with a good location you will be happy you went. I will definitely be back!

This is surely one place in Melbourne that you CANNOT turn your back on. Tandoori Flames has not only raised their bar on providing exceptional mouthwatering food but maintaining this status time after time. Weāve tasted their food at dine in and their catering services and itās very hard to distinguish the difference as weāve got the same vibe at each instance.
Jimmy/Deepti are amazing hosts and such down to earth people that they create a great ambience that one feels just special.
We recently used their catering services and they did not let us down. The chefs produced some finger licking foods and our guests were very pleased with the service. Their staff are not only friendly but very cooperative. So we would like to thank you and your team for doing an exceptional job.
This really goes to show that food is their Passion and not just a job! Well done team.
My partner and I ate at Tandoori Flames for the first time last night. Our waitress took really good care of us. The food came out super fast and it was absolutely delicious!
To top the excellent service, our lovely waitress offered us a complementary dessert to share which was really nice of her not to mention really refreshing. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely be back soon.
One of my favorite places for Indian food. the curries are great and they taste unique with their special spice blend. the staff are attentive. service may lag a little during busy periods. plenty of different seating options for different size groups. clean and tidy place.
This restaurant was recommended to us by a friend when we were visiting from interstate - what a fantastic neighborhood gem! We did not book a table, but the staff were more than accommodating to us when we walked in for dinner one evening. I consider myself extremely fussy when it comes to Indian food, however this restaurant did not disappoint! The food was outstanding and some of the best Indian that I have tasted in a long time. The Rogan Josh was amazing - the lamb was very tender and the sauce was so flavoursome. It was served fresh and piping hot and tasted very authentic. The serving sizes were very generous that my husband and I couldn't finish all the meals we had ordered. The service was super attentive and friendly even though they were extremely busy that night. The waiter that served us was more than happy to answer and questions that we had. The food was bought out quickly and fresh. No request was considered too big. The restaurant appeared very clean and tidy. We loved this place so much, we ended up ordered takeaway a few nights later which was just as good! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic Indian meal. I can't wait to go back if we are in the area again!
Just re-opened and is absolutely incredible.
My new local, it was amazing butter chicken, the best in Melbourne.
The owners are so lovely, as are all the staff.
A really gorgeous outdoor area for function!
The food was such good quality, nice place and definitely worth a try.
