The best Indian food we've had in Brisbane! No other place has compared for quality and flavour. Everything is consistently sooo good! We live several suburbs away but have to come here because it's just the best. Thank you Sitar for making everything so delicious!

My absolute favourite Indian restaurant. I have been enjoying Sitar for the last 14 years. I used to frequently visit the Alex Hills restaurant and was devastated when it closed down. This store is about 35 minutes from home and it is always worth drive. I even ordered take away for tomorrow! Incredibly delicious food, friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. You can feel the loving energy when you walk in. I had a wonderful chat with the owner tonight. Very kind people. Can't wait to be back and dine in again.

Delicious Between six of us, we had Korma, butter chicken, Tikka Masala, goat curry, Malai fish curry, rice and cheese, and garlic naan. Everything was simply amazing! Portions were big, we couldn't finish our meals, although we've tried very hard

Best food and customer service experience I had in a while. Absolutely recommended place to dine or take away. Owner herself walks around the restaurant and makes sure each and every customer is comfortable while enjoying their food.

Loved the curry and naan!! Butter chicken, Korma, Ceylon were all a good pick. Naan was especially fluffy! one of the best Naans ever. Staffs are also very nice.

We love Sitar. The aloo gobi is done very well with plenty of cauliflower & well spiced. My partner enjoys the lamb curry, which is about the only Indian restaurant that adds good quality vegetables to it in copious amounts. Samosas are also excellent, generous size & lots of filling

Typical white girl order but the mild butter chicken with garlic naan was top notch. Have had it a few times now and it hits every time!
