About Shavan's Patterson Lakes Indian Restaurant

Elevated above Harbour Plaza, this dining room delivers North Indian classics over crisp linen tablecloths without the usual steep prices. Regulars make special trips for the elusive cream chicken and slow-cooked goat masala, scooped up with blistered garlic cheese naan straight from the tandoor. Balcony tables overlook the waterfront, setting an easy backdrop for family birthdays and quiet dinners. Meals wrap with fragrant gulab jamun brought out for celebrations.

  • Elevated Balcony Setting: First-floor balcony seating catches open breezes over the plaza and surrounding waterfront.
  • Fine Dining Presentation: Linen tablecloths and attentive floor staff create a polished setting suited for milestone dinners and celebrations.
  • Signature Cream Chicken: A hard-to-find regional specialty served alongside rich, spice-forward traditional curries.

  • Distinctive Regional Specialties

    Alongside traditional North Indian staples, Shavan's serves rare regional specialties like Cream Chicken that draw patrons specifically across Melbourne.

    We live far from Patterson Lakes but we came here all the way to order Cream Chicken. This has become our children’s favourite, aside from Butter Chicken. It was delicious, yummy and not many Indian restaurants have Cream Chicken in their menus.
