Eatery RushDecember 13, 2016Best Indian Restaurant ever!! Nothing like I expected it to be. Most Indian restaurants serve the few basic Indian dishes with monotonous spicy taste but not Lal Qila.
Sumbal MalikDecember 26, 2016Nice place for halal food at darling harbour, Sydney. If you are entirely not happy with something on the menu, ask them to make adjustments. They are really accommodating and with great service.- Omalee De SilvaJune 5, 2016Absolutely amazing food. Been to so many Indian restaurants in Sydney, this is the best so far. Generous portions at good price. Balanced flavour and spices.
Hannah NicdaoJanuary 18, 2015I only moved here 2 weeks ago and have already had dinner here twice. Absolutely delicious curry. My default is the Murgh-e-Mughali, chicken curry with pistachios and mushrooms. DROOL.
Vivian TongMarch 18, 2015Loved the descriptions of each dish...history and flavors all in one. Ask for the special Pakistani bread not listed on the menu. Goes well with all of the dishes
Teddy MoreauAugust 4, 2016Great Indian food. Not much space so make sure you reserve a table. Palak paneer is great.
Beenish KhanDecember 26, 2016I’ve tried many food places but Lal Qila is by far my favorite halal Indian restaurant in Darling Harbour, Sydney. A decent place for small gatherings.
Usama ZulfiqarDecember 26, 2016Gulab jmaun! yes. Nothing gets better at darling harbour than this And yes all food is halal as well. Great place for Indian Pakistani food- N NAugust 18, 2014The biryani is very special, try it! Chilli chicken curry was good too but way too oily. Portions are very generous for biryani. Bring friends or family!
So good we came back a second time. Asked them to recommend curries. All delicious.
- Chilli chicken is fantastic, there are some goat curries that are off menu
The best and most authentic Biryani in Sydney. Try the Lamb Dum Biryani.
Suraj VarmaSeptember 22, 2016The tikka starter was good, but the curries were off balance and pricey for the quality
- Delicious. The tandoori, butter chicken, and garlic naan were divine. Can't wait to try other dishes. Friendly service. BYO. I'll be back.
خلف العتيبيDecember 11, 2014One of the best Restaurants in Sydnye if you have a time, Don't miss it , it's deserve a Visit 👍👍
