Raas Leela

Food is plentiful, well presented, very tasty and has a good amount of spice. Adi, the owner, is helpful and makes great meal recommendations. The chef, Jitesh, came out and met with us at our recent dinner here to seek our feedback on some new dishes which we very much appreciated and we enjoyed trying his new dishes. Food normally comes out in a reasonable time frame and the staff we dealt with were knowledgeable and approachable. Serving sizes are large so we often have to take food away with us. Have eaten here many times and look forward to returning again. The Indian food here is not your standard fare. It is creative, modern, and super tasty. It's very different and a breath of fresh air for indian cuisine. The chicken biryani comprises two smallish boned chicken pieces and enough rice to feed 8 people. Not very good value unless you feel like heaps of rice, which is a pointless filler Ranjit, Adi's husband is also friendly and runs a tight ship with long term staff. Sid, a waiter is very attentive and super friendly. Good, all round restaurant. On a negative note the women's toilets are a disgrace! One toilet is completely broken and the other is dirty. A complete overhaul is needed as I'd rather go to public toilets across the road than use these ones.

I visited this Indian restaurant and had a good experience. The customer service is great and the ambience is really nice. They have not much of food options, though it’s a bit expensive. The taste is amazing. I tried Malai Kofta, which was very sweet, so check your taste preference before ordering and ask for spicy or less spicy if needed. They also have a bar counter. No reservation is needed, but weekends are pretty busy.

The food tastes consistent with before, pretty good overall. It feels like a more traditional Indian restaurant, and the service is nice too

Went there for my birthday and it was truly great! Food was delicious(Indian cuisine with a modern twist). Super friendly service, special thanks to Ryan! Highly recommended

Went to Raas Leela, on our return trip of the great ocean road. The staff is quite nice, warm and welcoming. They would even check-in regularly if we were liking our food and when it was taking time for preparation- they would come and update as well. Coming to the food - must say, it was quite tasty. Ordered Palak paneer, makke ki roti, tandoori roti, Kala chana salad, and some onions on the side - all for 2 people. Good portion size and really good! The paneer was also very soft and fresh. Other than suggesting to manage parking during peak times, would highly recommend this place if you’re craving for Indian or even if you want to try Indian food!

The food, cocktails, and service was delightful. Don’t judge a book by its cover! My girlfriend and I had the Chicken Methi, Paneer masala, a the ocean road whisky sours! The naans and roti were also great - up to standard of any restaurant I’ve eaten in in India!

Had dinner for my boyfriend’s birthday there, and I couldn’t praise this restaurant enough. The food and cocktails were amazing. I would say it’s an Indian restaurant with a twist, so don’t expect very traditional Indian food.

Must visit restaurant if you are in Lorne or even passing through. The place serves Indian cuisine. Some of the dishes are an amazing twist on some typical Indian favourites like the Samosa and Pav Bhaji. Do try the 'decontructed samosa' and the special pav bhaji. The food is amazingly tasty, and the host and staff are engaging and warm. The preparations are not too spicy, and so my kids loved them. Would definitely visit again when I am in lorne next time.
