Let us introduce ourselves
Have you ever felt homesick for those lovely dhabas of India, where truck-drivers stop on their long sojourns, where families sit on cots with tumblers of lassi and plates of ghee dripping aloo parantha in their hands? Felt nostalgic for the aroma of spices that made you feel like you were right at home? We did too – bigtime!
Someone had to step-in and create a Dhaba for Australia, and we took to the challenge. We sourced the best chefs, 100% khandaani – along with authentic raw spices direct from the motherland. We vowed to prepare them “on-premises” each day, everyday and only use Desi Ghee. An iconic location in the heart of Melbourne and some unique artistry to set the mood.
…because nothing beats stretching on the khaat dunking back-to-back Patiala Pegs with mates who’ll never let you pay. Come back next morning to detox on fresh Pudina Lassi and Ganne ka Juice. Watch the cricket over a sizzling meat platter, or the latest Munnis and Sheelas on our bigscreen.
They say home is where the heart is.
WELCOME HOME TO THE DESI DHABA!
We finally found a great Indian restaurant close to our house in Tarneit. The customer service was amazing and the owner was incredibly friendly to our son. The food (butter chicken and lamb korma) was perfect for us and we’re looking forward to coming back for more! Thanks!
Fantastic first experience, will definitely be back! My wife is not a fan of spicy food she had the lamb korma it was GLORIOUS! Awesome food and super friendly and accomodating staff, would highly recommend 🙂
Excellent food, fresh, great quality, quantity and taste. The manager seemed to be a very nice person as well.
It was a great experience and will definitely go there again. Highly recommend.
Best Indian restaurant in Tarneit. I’m Italian and my wife is Indian. We eat Indian food often and this restaurant has the best food in town. Service is also excellent.
Me and my friends were looking for an India restaurant as we were craving for Indian food, thanks to Desi Dhaba for not just fulfilling our cravings but for an unexceptional amazing food. The food was really very very good.
Amazing food quality and quantity, Fast and very professional and friendly staff service.
I highly recommend this place if you want to enjoy the best tikkas, paneer,in short a proper meal.
Heard from my friend went to have dinner without expecting much but to my surprise best food in west. Authentic delhi style full of flavour value for money will go again and they do have halal certificate displayed. Great experience good service deserve a 5 star.
Good ambiance, very tasty and affordable food, convenient location and lot of parking lot.
I went to this restaurant yesterday and had a great experience. The service and hospitality were great and the food was delicious. Even the kids loved it. We caught up with the owner, Aakash, who was amazingly passionate about the food he cooked. Overall a great Indian food restaurant around Tarneit.
Great Ambience. The very Hospitable Host makes the visit worthwhile. The Food is the hero. Great Authentic Indian Food, served with love. The owner & the staff were awesome. We were looked after very well, and the staff checked on us if everything was good. I would give them 10/10 and rate them more than 5 stars if i could. Finally, a decent place to enjoy a delicious meal, that’s open till late. Good Job Guys & All the Best ..!!
I had dinner there and they have served best food even when it was busy like crazy. I have never seen such humble and warm attendants before. They are the best. I would love to go there again and again!!
