Mietta's Review
Good Indian food is served in this relaxed award winning restaurant in Paddington and also at it's sister estabishment at 2/3 Kirkdale Rd, Chapel Hill, 3378 8898. Indian decor and friendly if slightly off-hand service. And, they're both BYO too. In 06 mains averaged $19.

Queensland Food and Wine "banishing the brown sludge ...': a quote from the Indus website and a mission statement that encapsulates the chasm between the Indus experience and the bulk of the Indian-restaurant genre"

Courier Mail Tony Harper, Brisbane News, 04-09-2009 "It isn't regionally specific, covering cuisines from across the country; there are a few contemporary oddities (a designer curry page, camembert Bollywood, $9, and a global Indian favourites section covering chicken tikka masala, $20, and the like) as well as a hefty list of vegetarian dishes. ... The good news is that the broad appeal and fairly expansive menu don't compromise the quality. ... Indus is a crackingly good Indian restaurant, its quality led by the food and by the imagination of those who conceived it. A second Indus in Chapel Hill has, from what I can gather, a slightly smaller menu. Let's hope the quality is the same. Indus is BYO, but there is a bottle shop within a 20-second walk."

Courier Mail Food and Wine Guide 2009 Queensland Score: 14/20 "The Indus was opened by a team of young guns whose mission statement was to produce the best Indian food and operate the best Indian restaurant in Brisbane"

Courier Mail food and wine guide Queensland 2008 Score: 13/20 "Indian restaurants tend to a certain uniformity worldwide. You can be sitting in the middle of Rippongi Hills in Tokyo, London's Knightsbridge or a left Bank hole-in-the-wall in Paris and somehow be eating the same old butter chicken or lamb korma, usually in the same ornate faux-Raj surrounds - disappointing really"

Brisbane News Eating Out Guide 2006 "Take the spice route to Nitin and Arati Bhogale's award-wining eateries, where you can design your own curry, or select from mains like chicken chutney-walli"

Courier-Mail Goodlife Restaurant Guide 05 "Small and very red, this is a modern Indian restaurant serving deliciously fragrant curries as well as a range of finger foods and entrees."

Brisbane News Dining Out Guide 2004 "Husband-and-wife team Nitin and Arati Bhogale cook authentic Indian cuisine, perfected during Nitin's 23 years' cooking in his homeland."
