The best food in Canberra so far with an impeccable selection of menu and great options for various people of choice . It was indeed a pleasure to have dinner with you guys and I’ll definitely come back for many more meals special thanks to the chefs burst of flavours in the curries and a warm service by aleena the owner themself Mandip and surena and it was so sweet for them to present with the awesome desserts

We had dinner at Lotus Indian Restaurant and were extremely disappointed. The food looked appealing but had absolutely no taste. Also, the food had no salt at all — completely bland. For the prices they charge, the quality is unacceptable. They even billed $11 for a glass of still water, which is unreasonable and feels exploitative. This was one of the worst dining experiences we’ve had in Canberra. We won’t be going there again. I would strongly recommend going elsewhere — don’t waste your money here. The dishes were finished simply because we were hungry — not because they were enjoyable. He didn’t order any special water — I was right there, and nothing like that was requested. He doesn’t even know what that brand of water is, let alone order it. This is exploitation. We visited after reading good reviews, but our experience did not match them.

Food is really good and loved the ambience too. Chef was kind enough to checkin about food quality. Presentation was impressive aswell. However the cost is bit on higher side as compared to other Indian restaurants in the city. Papadum and still water should be complimentary.

Went to Lotus Indian Restaurant in Canberra for dinner with my family, and we were really impressed! The food was packed with flavour — we tried the chicken tikka masala, paneer butter masala, and beef vindaloo, and every dish tasted authentic and freshly made. The naan bread was soft and buttery, and the mango lassi was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. The service was excellent — friendly staff who made us feel right at home and even offered great recommendations. The restaurant has a lovely, calm atmosphere with nice music in the background, making it perfect for both families and couples. Everything from the presentation to the taste was spot on. You can tell they take pride in what they do. Definitely my new favourite spot for Indian food in Canberra!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had such a lovely experience at Lotus Indian Restaurant in Canberra! From the moment I walked in, the staff were welcoming and friendly, and the place had a warm, relaxing atmosphere. We ordered the butter chicken, lamb rogan josh, and vegetable biryani, and everything was absolutely delicious — full of rich flavours and cooked to perfection. The garlic naan was soft and fresh, perfect for soaking up the sauces. What really stood out was the service — our waiter checked on us just the right amount, and the food came out quickly even though the restaurant was quite busy. You can tell they really care about both their food and their customers. It was an all-around great dining experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their menu next time. Highly recommend Lotus if you’re looking for authentic and tasty Indian food in Canberra! 🌸
