Nirankar is a nice little restaurant with lots of food options!! The food was amazing but staff’s were not much of a help in explaining the dishes properly. We ordered 4 dishes and they all were served on time with great flavours/ portion size. The only criticism I would give is “Table setting” where they have added a huge piece of paper on top of every tables, so that the staffs don’t have to clean or change the table cloths! Otherwise the food was delicious with great flavours and we will definitely be back!!

This is the best Indian food I have ever had in Melbourne. I am very satisfied with the level of spice in the dishes - just the way Indians like it! It is definitely worth every dollar spent and is very affordable.

This restaurant is charming, the food was enjoyable although a bit expensive. The service was good and the atmosphere was pleasant. I would definitely return and recommend this place.

This Indian restaurant is one of the best in the city. I always recommend getting the medium or hot curry, along with the Rogan Josh lamb and Butter Chicken to go with the rice and garlic naan. They also have a good selection of wines, including NZ Pinot Gris. The service is excellent as well.
