About ANKI'S INDIAN EATERY

Steps from Katoomba station, this cozy dining room dishes up robust, deeply spiced North Indian comfort that revives chilly Blue Mountains trekkers. The kitchen leans into roadside dhaba-style depth, simmering scratch-made butter chicken, coconut-laced chicken Chettinad, and melting goat rogan josh with real gravitas. Soft cheese and garlic flatbreads arrive hot to mop up rich dal makhni, while the dining room even cushions the high-altitude chill with heated seats.

  • Mountain Warmth: Diners warm up after long mountain treks over rich goat rogan josh, scratch-made butter chicken, and heated dining room seating.
  • Scenic Takeaway: Packs curries and fresh flatbreads in generous portions for rustic lookouts and holiday cabins across the Upper Mountains.
  • Dietary Flexibility: Accommodates delicate dietary requests easily, including no-onion-no-garlic preparations and gluten-friendly curries.

  • Central Katoomba Access

    Convenient location right by Katoomba station makes it an easy dining stop across multi-day trips and local sightseeing excursions.

  • Heated Dining Comfort

    The dining room features heated seating to provide comfort and warmth during chilly mountain evenings.

    Dined in last Saturday night and enjoyed the heated seats too!

  • Distinctive Soft Naans

    Freshly prepared house naans baked without a traditional tandoor clay oven yield a notably soft, cheesy, and enjoyable texture.

    Also, despite it not being traditional tandoori naan, the cheese and garlic naan was so soft and cheesy and yummy.

  • Dietary Customization On Request

    Careful kitchen accommodation allows last-minute dietary adjustments, including curries prepared without onion and garlic on request.

    We had a last minute request for food with no onion and garlic - this was accommodated without any fuss.

  • Generous Takeaway Portions

    Generous, robust takeaway portions hold up reliably for dinners enjoyed back at holiday accommodations or local scenic spots.

    The food was delicious, the servings in a large container. I had 3-4 good meals out of my two mains.

Customer-favorite curries cooked from scratch

  • Butter Chicken

    The best butter chicken I've ever had. Made completely by the chef from scratch. So creamy. Just perfect.

  • Rogan Josh

    The Rogan Josh was one of the best I've ever eaten. The generous serve of lamb fell apart, the gravy was rich and had depth. And pleasantly hot!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you dine in or order takeaway?

The eatery serves both dine-in dinner and takeaway orders. Takeaway curries and naans are packed in generous portions suitable for taking out or heading to local lookout spots.

Do curries come with rice or naan included?

Portions are generous, with large mains often yielding multiple meals and large rice serves easily feeding two people. Keep in mind that curries do not automatically include rice or naan, so breads and sides should be ordered separately.

Can dietary needs like gluten-free or no onion and garlic be accommodated?

The kitchen can accommodate specific dietary requests, such as preparing curries without onion and garlic, and offers gluten-free options across various dishes. However, strict cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed.

Is dine-in seating comfortable and reservable?

While online booking tools may not always work reliably, the restaurant accepts reservations and offers indoor dine-in seating, including heated seats during colder weather.
