About Raani Palace Indian Restaurant

Tucked away on Old Perth Road, this cozy husband-and-wife diner skips endless menus to focus entirely on deeply spiced, unpretentious North Indian standards. Grab a BYO six-pack or your favorite bottle and grab a table under the warm lighting—the room is intimate enough that twenty-five people can claim the whole floor for private milestones. The kitchen leans on tight execution over sheer volume: tender lamb korma, saucy chicken tikka masala, and blistered garlic naan slathered in butter straight from the tandoor. Plentiful servings leave enough fragrant pilau rice and rich curry sauce to pack up for the next day's lunch.

  • BYO Friendly: Diners can bring their own wine and beer to pair with rich curries and warm breads.
  • Focused Classic Menu: A concise lineup focused on mastered classics like butter chicken, vindaloo, and lamb korma.
  • Intimate Group Gatherings: The compact dining room comfortably hosts exclusive private parties of around 25 guests.

  • Light and Fluffy Tandoori Naan

    Freshly baked tandoori bread pairs with rich curries, prepared with a light and fluffy consistency that anchors dine-in and takeaway orders.

    The curries were all delicious but the garlic naan was phenomenal, one of the best Ive had to date.
