About Curry Master Chef

Tucked off Dohertys Road in Tarneit, Curry Master Chef serves deeply spiced, unhurried Indian curries tailored precisely to your heat threshold. Regulars point to the creamy palak paneer and rich butter chicken, scooped up with blistered garlic naan straight from the tandoor. The kitchen works in plain sight through an open doorway, readily tweaking spice blends whether feeding heat-averse kids or dialing up the punch. Service stretches past midnight on weekends, finishing strong with balanced, generous plates of chicken 65 biryani.

  • Custom Spice Levels: Curries and heat balances are tailored at the table to match individual or child preferences.
  • Open Kitchen Sightline: Kitchen doors stay open, giving guests direct sightlines into active cooking and prep.
  • Late-Night Dining: Tables stay served until 10:30pm weeknights, 11:00pm Thursday, and midnight Friday and Saturday.
