Our Team

“My wife and I have always wished to serve society with food that touches the soul and brings to life the Indian culture. To fulfil our dreams, we opened Kohinoor Indian Restaurant in Geelong, Victoria in 1995. Since then we have been serving Indian food to Geelong's public with the same consistent taste.”

This is one of the nicest Indian restaurants around Geelong. I could not fault the food. We had the butter chicken, which was so tender and obviously quality ingredients. The staff were friendly, helpful and not intrusive. Thank you for a lovely meal :)

Extensive menu, great tasting food. Garlic naan particularly good. A lovely quiet place to eat, soft music allows for conversations around the table. The small rice portion is very generous! We were offered a sweet treat at the end, a lovely warm pudding morsel with a gentle honey sauce. This restaurant is consistently excellent!
