I was yesterday
Went here for dinner. We had no reservation for a table but the awesome friendly staff found a nice table next to the window. We ordered the tasting Thali menu and was very satisfied with the food. Ended the meal with the dessert tasting menu that contained 3 different desserts. With all this we had a bottle of green wine. This place is not the cheapest in Australia 🇦🇺 but the quality and service make it all worth it. Recommended for everyone!
Great service fantastic food. Everything i tasted was exceptional best Indian food I've ever had
Great taste! Awesome Indian food. Loved all the items we ordered. Definitely recommend everyone to try the Tandoori Chicken and Keema Naan!
Will come back for:
+ Mushroom Bhaji
+ Kashmiri Naan
+ Lamb Biryani
+ Tandoori chicken
Felt like some Indian food, so we popped by to curry vault in the city to try it out on the basis of pretty good reviews. We were not disappointed. I loved their naans, and mushroom bhaji (spicy, tasty and moorish), the lamb Biryani was generous and delicious and the tandoori chicken was super succulent and well spiced (this was part of their tandoori mixed platter; the tandoori lamb chop was sadly a little over done in this case). Service was exceptional and I got to give their front of house plenty of kudos for patiently explaining each dish and providing great care to us on the night. We also tried their chicken momo which was surprisingly good, but found it a little left of centre on the menu. Prices are reasonable for what you get and I’ll definitely be back for more!
Food was so delicious. Awesome service.
We had 4 pax Groupon weekday lunch, real bargain with $100 value to spend. We ordered Egg plant, Tandoori platter, chicken biryani & goat biryani, garlic and plain naan.
Food was delicious, portions were indeed large, and service was friendly.
Will certainly be back.
Edit - 15/10/19
Came back, this time brought family along for dinner last nite.
We had 2 Biryanis, lamb & chicken, 3 curries, fish chicken & goat, and 2 garlic naan.
We were in a rush as someone in our group has a prior appointment. The wait staff was most accomodating, our orders arrived quickly. And the waiter was kind enough to make some recommendations to our order.
We thoroughly enjoyed the food, finished every morsel.
Plan to come again, and again!

Fancied some Indian and this place had a good deal on EatClub. Started with the onion bhaji which came with a delicious dipping sauce. Next was the Nepalese dumplings (momo? I don’t remember their name and they don’t show up on the online menu). These were by far my favourite dish. They tasted so fresh and clean and had just the right amount of spice. I could easily eat 20 of these. Mains was the butter chicken with garlic naan. The butter chicken was very thick, almost like a paste (which I believe is the traditional way). Overall, a very nice meal. Would definitely be back for a heap of the Nepalese dumplings!
Staffs were polite. It is fine dinning and the quality of the food was great. It was more authentic and a cosy underground place in the city.
Had the butter chicken and it was really good. Liked that it was sweet and creamy. Service was good and the waitress was really nice and friendly!
Came here on a Friday night after work with an eat club deal handy.. we found that it wasn’t too busy but a few seats were occupied.. this place catered for mainly western guests from what we could tell.. we had the Goat Briyani, Butter Chicken, Garlic Naan, mango lassi they also provided free papadam..
The briyani was delectable and you could taste the spices with every mouthful.. butter chicken was juicy and packed full of flavour.. the naan however wasn’t as thick as I am used to and this felt a bit more like roti..
The food wasn’t too different to other Indian places we had in the past but the prices were a bit more dearer.. a nice spot in the city for some Indian..
Curry Vault Indian Restaurant and Bar combines modern and traditional Indian cuisine to create an authentic dining experience.Dine at this modern Indian restaurant located in the historic Bank Place in the heart of Melbourne’s financial district.Come in and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and setting of Curry Vault, and experience some of the best indian food in Melbourne.
We came to Curry Vault recently predominantly as its in the entertainment book. I have been once before but it was literally seven years ago so frankly I’m impressed that they’re still standing in a world so fickle as the food industry.
The other reason we chose the venue as my cousin was visiting from interstate and she likes Indian food but is a bit snobby when it comes to decor, your traditional more basic Indian style restaurants wouldn’t have cut the mustard for her.
Unfortunately there were only three of us so we couldn’t engage in the banquet (minimum 4) but would probably take that up if I ever came back as it’s pretty good value considering how the bread and rice add up when you are a la carte. As for what we ate it was obviously butter chicken and it was quite yummy
Original review
This is a slightly more upmarket Indian restaurant where you can have a more refined evening but still enjoy traditional food. Ie no butchers paper tablecloths and neon lights in sight, but not the extreme opposite of deconstructed samosas either. Flavour wise the butter chicken is not one of the best I've had and I actually prefer the deliciously creamy malai kofta. The pricing reflects its laneway location. Worth checking out
