Shahnai Indian Restaurant Established 1984.

Shahnai Indian Restaurant and Sweets was established in 1984 in Brunswick. Our parents were caterers in India, delighting locals at Weddings and Festivals with their delicious and authentic Indian dishes.

They were brought to Australia to establish the first Indian Restaurant to show Melbourne and Australia all that our cuisine and heritage has to offer to the food and hospitality industry.

We have since relocated to Preston but still offer the best tasting Indian food in town. Come on in and taste the difference for yourself.
