Loved everything here. I just came here yesterday with my friends and the food was amazing. I had the chicken tikka masala, Butter chicken, Cheese naan and some samosa and everything was so good. Finger licking food. Thankyou to the chef and entire team.

So grateful to this team who looked after me tonight after I had ordered online at a different restaurant that was next door, but had closed down. I am a Type 1 diabetic and had taken my insulin in preparation for my dinner, so my blood sugars were dropping and by now I needed food quickly. They helped me out and cooked a meal for me within 5 minutes without any hassles. Thank you so much. Literal life savers!

There was nothing we didn't like about this dining experience. The service was first rate and the food sensational. The prices were great too!! Very reasonable considering the high quality of the food. I can thoroughly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a great Indian meal.

@seasideshahi A Flavourful Indian Escape by the Sea. Nestled along the coast in Wollongong, Seaside Shahi offers not just a meal, but a rich cultural and culinary experience. From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, followed by a very enjoyable evening. Starter was the Chicken Tikka, which set the tone beautifully—tender, smoky, fired chicken. For mains, we enjoyed the Beef Corma and Beef Madras—both absolutely packed with flavour, aromatic spices that showed off the true Indian flavours. A surprising highlight was their signature mocktail, the Seaside Shahi, which served as a perfect palate cleanser between courses. It allowed each curry’s unique flavour profile to shine through. Dessert was another delight—we tried the Pistachio (Pista) and Mango Kulfi, and they were both creamy, subtly sweet, and refreshing—like a frozen yoghurt with an Indian twist. We enjoyed the ambiance just as much. The restaurant overlooks the sea, and on a clear day, you can sit out on the balcony and enjoy a cool ocean breeze with your meal. Inside, beautifully painted murals of Indian ladies dancing add a touch of elegance and cultural warmth. The seating is comfortable (especially the softer bench seating along the wall), and it’s easy to hold a conversation without shouting over background noise. Service was excellent. Our hostess was welcoming, friendly, and professional throughout. Jess, the manageress, took the time to explain the dishes and make sure we were comfortable. The waiter also recommended we try their Indian beer next time—advice we’ll gladly take. They also offer a lunchtime Thali, which we’re told is excellent, and takeaway options are available too. One detail we really appreciated: they have an Indian chef preparing the meals. That authenticity came through in every dish. When it comes to food, there’s no better way to experience the heart of a culture than to taste it from someone who lives and breathes it. In short, our experience at Seaside Shahi was great—from the flavours to the service to the setting. We left with full hearts and even fuller bellies dragging out the door. Highly recommended.

Last month, we had a fantastic dining experience at this Indian restaurant. The dishes were packed with authentic flavors and cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. The cozy and inviting atmosphere made for a comfortable dining environment, and the location is very convenient. Whether for a casual meal or a dine out, this spot is definitely worth a visit!
