Dined here with a group of 8. The restaurant is tucked away off little Collins st in one of the nicer lane ways. I was surprised it was not busy for a Saturday night. We all had the banquet which was really lovely. We were able to order more dishes if we ran out. The starters were a little dry but the currys made up for it. The staff were attentive. Would recommend this restaurant.
I definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting a beautiful meal, great service, and relaxing atmosphere where you can have an intimate dinner with your partner. Our waiter was very kind and professional and our food was to die for. I would have to say it is the best Indian meal I have ever had. I definitely will be coming to this hidden treasure again soon!
I have been to this restaurant a number of times and have always been delighted with the quality of the food and the good service. Most of the curries are mild to moderate and suit my anglo tastes. The host has also been most helpful in choice of food and wine.
Despite the rave reviews in this forum, the food at the Curry Vault is extremely mediocre. While it's not hugely expensive, the food is no better than take-out Indian fare. The tandoori chicken was very dry and flavourless. The Lamb curry was extremely chewy, the meat was fatty. If you're looking for quality Indian food, this is not the restaurant to go to.
Hidden away in a nice little lane The Curry Vault serves up great food which doesn't disappoin. Service is quick and professional. Food is piping hot and fresh. Ended up going back a second time in the same weekend.
We discovered this relatively new Indian restaurant in Melbourne. It's downstairs in a little lane off Collins Street. Hence it has great atmosphere. Food is fantastic and there is an extensive and (just as importantly) well priced wine list. Service was attentive and couldn't be faulted. This restaurant seems to be getting more and more popular and we've been back quite a few times since we found it. And it's always just as good.
Very good Indian food. The food was not too heavy, nor were the curries too saucy. We both thought the naan was some of the best we have had in Melbourne. The service was attentive, the wine list was extensive too. Definitely worth a second visit.
Great find in inner Melbourne. Not many good Indian restaurants here that we've found, but this one is definitely worth a visit (or two). When the Ashes were on and we (england) got completely pummelled by the ozzies we thought we'd give this place a try. Well the reviews looked quite good and we were in the mood for curry.
Our waiter, who I think is the owner, was fabulous, he helped us choose what dishes we should try and gave us a great recommendation on wine to have with indian food, we really did love it, it went perfectly with our meal. It was Ferngrove Symbols 2005 shiraz viogner.
We loved our night here so much we went back the next night too with some friends of ours, and it was just good the second time.
Upmarket area and decor, reasonable prices for authentic Indian cuisine - lots more than just curries - and with real flavour. Relax downstairs, outside, at the bar or on the couch.
