Tucked into the heart of Melbourne's most celebrated dining laneway, Aagaman Flinders Lane brings authentic Indian cuisine to the CBD without the stiff formality of fine dining. The kitchen runs on the same philosophy as our Port Melbourne original — fresh ingredients, traditional spice blends, and a tandoor oven at the centre of everything.
Whether you're looking for an Indian restaurant in Melbourne CBD for a weekday lunch, an after-work dinner with the team, or a proper Saturday night out with cocktails — Aagaman Flinders Lane is that restaurant. Butter chicken, lamb rogan josh, tandoori mixed grill, momo dumplings, and a drinks list worth lingering over.
From rich Northern Indian curries to delicate Himalayan street food — the dishes Melbourne CBD diners keep coming back for.
A sizzling board of our finest tandoor cuts — charcoal chicken tikka, garlic malai tikka, seekh kebab, lamb chops and tawa prawns. Everything charred over open flame.
Tandoor-charred chicken cooked down in a tangy tomato-onion masala, then finished with Khukuri rum.
Hollow shells, house-spiced potato and chickpea, chilled tamarind water.
"The best Indian food in the Melbourne CBD, full stop. The momo dumplings are extraordinary — I had never tried Nepalese food before and now I'm obsessed. Perfect spot for a work lunch on Flinders Lane."
"We brought our entire team here for an end-of-year dinner — 22 people — and the experience was flawless. The Tandoori Mixed Grill platter had everyone fighting over the last kebab. Exceptional value for the CBD."
"I walk past dozens of restaurants on my lunch break every day. Aagaman is the only one I return to week after week. The Lamb Rogan Josh is deeply flavoured and the naan is perfectly charred. An absolute gem."
