Just got take out here and was pleasantly surprised that it was given with a free tote bag and a complementary rice pudding! Best range of vegan and veg options in the area as well and wonderful variety of food! 10/10 recommend!

Indian Essence in Elsternwick is a true culinary gem! The food is absolutely amazing—flavour-packed, beautifully presented, and authentic. Service is top-notch: attentive, efficient, and warm. The vibe is elevated by the friendliest staff, creating a welcoming, vibrant atmosphere. A must-visit for anyone who loves great Indian food!

Young man Adam was excellent in his service. He poured tea into your tea cups and was very polite and attentive.

✨ Thirty-one years strong and still authentic 🇮🇳, this local gem delivers rich, aromatic curries 🍛 that honour traditional flavours and craftsmanship 👨‍🍳. The spice balance 🌶️ feels thoughtful, not overpowering, while the setting remains warm and unpretentious 🕯️. Whether you’re in for chicken tikka 🍗 or a vegetarian korma 🥦, it’s true Indian comfort at its best!!

Unbelievably cheap (some are low as $10 per dish!), yet the portions are generous and packed with flavor. It’s a fantastic spot if you have a hungry belly to fill. It can get quite popular, so you might have to wait, and the food may not arrive all at once. But for the price you pay, it’s definitely worth it!
