About Sizzler Restobar

Woodend locals head to Sizzler Restobar for genuine Indian curries packed with uncompromised heat and host-driven hospitality. Proprietor Sam personally greets every table, setting an easygoing pace that makes walk-ins and regulars feel right at home. The kitchen happily adapts nearly any curry for vegan diners without skimming on depth or richness. Diners often ask for proper “Indian hot” chili levels across rich Dal Makhani, slow-cooked lamb korma, and crisp onion spinach bhajis. Hot keema and garlic naan arrive charred straight from the tandoor, rounding out family-style spreads alongside house pistachio kulfi.
