Best Indian Cuisine in Sydney
The best Indian cuisine that Sydney has to offer. Would highly recommend everyone to try at their beautiful restaurant in Terry Hills. From traditional taste to unique presentations Urban Tadka has everything covered. They are consistent with their quality, service and commitment. They have hosted a few events for us and can say they are the best.

Traditional Indian dining with a modern twist
Urban Tadka (UT as we lovingly call it) has a very special place in my heart as we hosted our son’s first birthday at this wonderful restaurant. 8 years on, we have experienced many a flavours of UT - Fine Indian Dining, Private parties to celebrate key life events and their catering at premium external venues in Sydney. They lead with sophisticated service which is supplemented by well presented delicious food. My family joins me in wishing UT continued success.

This is a great hidden treasure. Have dined here a few times. Outstanding food and always seems to be frequented by various Indian families which gives a real positive indication. Kids welcome here too

rob14298

Coming from England, expectations are very high on Indian food, this is by far the best in the area, the Lamb balti gosh is excellent and as good an indian dish as you will get anywhere. The only areas for improvement would be to have much more variety to the menu and more spicy curries, such as a Chicken Jalfrezi, and also add Onion Bhajis to the menu.

sangha

Tell us about your experience...fantastic is the word for this amazing indian restaurant who is doin wonders under the guidelines and super management of my local buddy Mr dimpy singh who has always known for his top credentials in this industry. cheers to you and your team mate for taking this project of yours to sky high'. THE FOOD IS JUST OUT OF THIS WORLD. cheers.

Always very yummy food. Not too oily. When you are ordering halve what you think you will eat. The background music tends to be too loud when they are busy, otherwise, a lovely place to go. We have been going here when there are family birthdays, for a couple of years now.

one of its kind indian restaurant... Food is special and setup is amazing... Will always keep going back everytime I am in sydney

hnihni

Having been to Urban Tadka quite a few times I find the food to be of very high quality and incredibly delicious. Some special menu items are different to the normal range of curries you find at your local Indian restaurant. The venue is off the main strip of restaurants but well worth the deviation.

craig16252

Unlike any other Indian restaurant in Sydney. Unique location and inspirational menu. A centre of excellence.

sonal22008

Amazing food - traditional Indian with a modern twist. The setting is lovely. Service is friendly and efficient. Great value for money and deserves recognition.
