Bismi Restaurant

Annoyed... Waited 30 mins for my take away and I'm not even enjoying the food now that I'm back home. Thumbs down

Love this place. The food is delicious. My favourite is the onion and chilli uttapam. The dum byriani is excellent and they have authentic South Indian curries. The paratha was also delicious. We have been back several times. The meals are very reasonably priced :)

Take it from a Malaysian , this place serves the best teh- tarik and nescafe panas in Melbourne- Beats Mamak (in the city) and Paparich anytime.The biryani is authentic and the price is reasonable, the nasi lemak telur is good too,the roti canai is as good as the ones back home or if not better, BUT the nasi goreng and maggie goreng are not the Malaysian kind , it tastes and looks different, it's reddish and I found it a bit too spicy. The waiter however was very obliging and told us to specify the way we wanted our 'goreng' dishes in the fututre and they would try to make it the way we like it, I thought that was very good of them ! The Dosa (ghee & Plain) are nice too, you don't get that sour taste and i've told them I prefer mine soft and they made the Dosas soft. The restaurant is clean, toilets are clean and staff are attentive, they tend to be slightly crowded after a certain time during weekends and sometimes food can be delayed up to 20 mins, but I don't mind ...read more

Overall the place is good and friendly. The only thing I didn't like was the noise - I like quiet places so I can eat in peace with my family.

Great value for money without compromise in quality. A main meal and entrees does not exceed $10 - very unheard of in Melbourne nowadays. You feel like you step into India as you dine in this fine restaurant.
