Sultans Kitchen

The food was excellent, and the ambiance was delightful. However, the highlight was undoubtedly the stunning indoor scenery. I'd rate the food a solid 5 out of 5, but the indoor scenery deserves an 8 out of 5! Many thanks for the wonderful hospitality and the spectacular views. I truly enjoyed the vistas from both inside and outside. The food? Scrumptious doesn't even begin to cover it! Words fall short in describing the incredible atmosphere, scenery, food, and overall ambiance. It's an experience that defies description. I'm already planning to bring my entire family lineage to experience this exceptional establishment.

Food My wife and I dined on a quiet Mon night in late Nov. Between us, we shared a mixed entrée, a curried beef, an Indian salad and to accompany that, a bowl of basmati rice and a serve of garlic and cheese naan. For dessert, what else, but our favourite Gulab jamun? Unfortunately, this place does not sell alcohol, so for drinks, it was a mango lassi and a sprite. It’s hard to pinpoint the best dish because everything was so delicious: It was all fresh, tasty and infused with those delicate and aromatic Indian herbs and spices that we love so much. The mixed entrée plate had a nice, varied selection: Samosas, tandoori chicken pieces, cubed beef and onion bhaji. The beef main course was tender, flavoursome and well cooked in a mild curry sauce. The fluffy rice, melt-in-your-mouth naan bread and little salad made the perfect accompaniments. Servings sizes were generous, and there were even some leftovers to enjoy for lunch the next day. Service This is where this place really excels. The hands-on owner is a super friendly, polite and congenial host who will make you feel welcome the moment you walk into his restaurant. He was chatty and attentive, and made sure that everything ran smoothly from beginning to end. Drinks, entrée, main meals and desserts came out quickly and in the correct order, despite them being busy fulfilling a steady stream of take-away and home delivery orders, which I assume has now become the staple of their business. Those of you who are familiar with my reviews, will know how much I dislike restaurants that prioritise their take-away and home delivery customers over their in-house diners. This wasn’t the case at S.K. The service throughout the evening was fast and efficient. Atmosphere You’ll feel like you’re in a bit of a time warp at S.K. It’s decorated in a retro Indian style, with thick dark carpets, exotic arches and colourful religious and spiritual artefacts and decorations on the walls. Except it’s not really retro by design, it probably hasn’t been updated in decades. The owner told me that they’ve been here since the 80s, and it shows. Nevertheless, the effect is to create a warm, inviting and homely atmosphere that has a nice oriental feel to it. The wooden furniture is solid and comfortable. It was pretty empty the night we dined: Apart from us, there was only one other occupied table, which did make for a rather quiet atmosphere. Cost After our 25% Entertainment Club discount we paid a modest 60 shekels for two drinks, an entrée plate, a salad, a beef curry, rice, naan bread and dessert. Certainly can’t complain about that, especially when Australia is in the grip of a Weimar Republic-like hyperinflation crisis. Toilets There are clean and well provisioned toilets down a fairly long flight of stairs, with separate mail and female cubicles. Parking There’s plenty of street parking on Given Terrace or any one of the nearby side streets. We parked on Campbell Street, behind the famous “Paddo'' pub and bistro, a short, easy walk to S.K. Summary We had a pleasant evening at S.K., and everything ran smoothly. There’s no need to book. Food is outstanding, service is friendly and efficient and the ambience is chilled, relaxed and laid back. Add to that, modest prices, clean toilets and easy street parking, and you have all the ingredients for a pleasant evening in Paddington.

Always superb. Been coming here for many years ( 20+) and it’s always consistently excellent. It’s the go to when my family from the UK visit, they all like good curry and this is the best in Brisbane. The owner Bill is always is so welcoming 💕 Thank you so much for sharing your amazing dishes, great service and your welcoming smiles.

Revisited with a sense of nostalgia as I dined here quite frequently many years ago and we used to rave about the food. Unfortunately whilst the food was good it didn't have the wow factor. The naan was disappointing and there was no goat curry available. I was also let down by outdated prices on both the restaurant website and Eatclub dine in menu with prices charged at the restaurant approximately 20% more. Felt a bit like deceptive advertising to lure people in under false pretense.

Beautiful Indian themed decor. The owner of the restaurant was there to greet you with a warm smile. Quick efficient service by the wait staff. We had the mixed entrees it was a tasty selection of finger foods cooked beautifully well balanced flavours. We had lamb korma, beef roghan Josh , mixed grilled tandoori platter, garlic naan with raita and lamb Biryani . Best Indian restaurant we've been too. 🏆🏆🏆⭐⭐⭐
