About Balti Indian Restaurant

Perth’s CBD holds a kitchen that refuses to dilute its spices. Diners pack the St Georges Terrace dining room on random weeknights—mostly chasing North Indian cooking that never pulls its heat. The kitchen leans into thick, dhaba-style gravies, roasting spiced lamb cutlets until charred outside and tender within. Regulars tear through masala-heavy rogan josh and vindaloo that genuinely breaks a sweat, while the floor team quietly keeps water glasses full.

  • Tandoor-Fired Lamb Cutlets: Marinated cutlets roasted over high heat in the clay oven to lock in juices beneath a crisp, smoky char.
  • Uncompromised Heat & Rich Curries: North Indian classics that hold nothing back on spice, from rich chicken lababdar to fiery vindaloo.
  • Crispy Starters & Sharing Plates: Flavor-packed onion bhaji and grilled paneer that round out generous family-style spreads.

Why Diners Choose Balti Indian Restaurant

Experience bold Punjabi spice, authentic clay-oven cooking, and generous hospitality on St Georges Terrace—book your table today.

  • Tandoor-Charred Lamb Cutlets

    Cutlets are marinated in bold spices and roasted directly in the tandoor, producing a deep exterior char that locks in juices.

    All pieces were spiced adequately and cooked in a tandoor, giving it a nice and rich flavour complete with some charring on the outside of the cutlets to seal in the juices.

  • Uncompromising Heat Profiles

    Recipes avoid sweetening gravies for Western palates, preserving the genuine, robust heat levels of traditional Punjabi cooking.

    The food, therefore, were true to their heat (especially that vindaloo 😮‍💨).

  • Excitement of Genuine Regional Heat

    Diners craving serious chilli find authentic vindaloos and curries that deliver the rare, sweat-inducing heat missing elsewhere.

    I love the spicy heat though and it was on point. Made me sweat which is rare in Perth indian restaurants.

  • Festive Group Celebrations

    A lively CBD setting makes the dining room a go-to destination for milestone gatherings and birthday celebrations.

    Went there to celebrate my friends birthday and we all loved the food, which is very authentic and traditional North Indian Punjabi style.

  • Generous Shared Dining

    Curry portions are sized generously to encourage communal sharing across tables of friends and colleagues.

    Portion sizes are generous — we usually order four curries to share between five people and it’s plenty.

  • Chicken Vindaloo

    They warned me about the vindaloo being really hot and it was. I love the spicy heat though and it was on point. Made me sweat which is rare in Perth indian restaurants.

Before you head over

Practical advice on navigating authentic heat levels, generous sharing plates, and busy dining hours—book ahead to secure your table.

  • Book Ahead for Peak Evenings

    The dining room regularly packs out with local crowds even on weeknights, and staff advise reserving in advance. Secure a reservation ahead of time to avoid wait times or restricted seating windows.

  • Calibrate for Genuine Heat

    Balti does not sweeten curries for milder palates; traditional North Indian recipes remain true to their heat. Expect robust masalas and sweat-inducing spice in dishes like the vindaloo.

  • Order Generously to Share

    Curry servings and rice portions are generous and heavy in rich gravy. For table gatherings, ordering family-style—such as four curries among five diners—provides plenty of food to share.
