We’re easy to find and great at food




ABOUT US

With the motive of making the tempting flavors of the cuisine of India
accessible to everyone in Townsville, I and my wife Harpreet Kaur, opened our
restaurant in the October of 2011 and named it ‘Aalishan’ because we wanted it
to be known for its grandeur and appetizing, flavorsome, absolutely irresistible
food. Following our chef’s resignation in 2013, I took the best decision of my
life by wearing the chef’s hat and by 2018, Aalishan became one of the most
popular restaurants of the town, the popularity that is a result of our
impeccable services.

On 1 st July 2020, Aalishan moved to 61 Palmer Street, South Townsville to add
to its magnificence because it can conveniently accommodate up to 199 people, a
perfect place for parties and celebrations. With drool worthy food, a vast array
of options in the amazing bar to choose from and exquisite views of Ross creek,
Aalishan is every bit aalishan(grand) and gives all its customers every reason
to keep coming back for experiencing the beauty and magic this place offers!

MERVYN BIRT

LOCAL GUIDE

Had the mild butter chicken with naan bread, both were excellent


SANNA KARVINEN

LOCAL GUIDE

Superb food, the staff are all very friendly, short waiting time. The atmosphere
is very cosy, it doesn’t feel like I’m in a restaurant, it feels like I’m at
someone’s home having a nice meal in. My friends, family and I have gone there
frequently


MANDI MORDAUNT

LOCAL GUIDE

Amazing Indian food I had the butter chicken and my friend the lamb korma best
Indian food we’ve had


SUSAN MARTIN

LOCAL GUIDE

Oh my gosh the food was amazing and the service was friendly and efficient best
indian food I have ever tasted?


ALLEN LANE

LOCAL GUIDE

From the moment you walk in you realise it is a family run business and whilst
we sat outside it just felt very quaint. It is BYO and this suited us as a 2
couples ( one white bottle wine , one red ), The food was just amazing – Palak
Paneer, Lamb Madras, Prawns Jafrezi, Garlic Naan, Yoghurt – all prepared
beautifully and tasted awesome – would highly recommend.


TORIN MORELAND

LOCAL GUIDE

WOW… Best curry I have had yet in Australia! Lots of vegan options and clearly
labelled menu. Very reasonably priced and definitely wil go a again.


OMNITITAN GAMING

LOCAL GUIDE

Great food sometimes comes from unexpected places. This place isn’t much to look
at but the food is good and that’s what really matters. One of only a few places
I’ve found so far that truly do spicy.


KEN WONG

LOCAL GUIDE

Friendly service and helpful suggestions with the menu. Most importantly, the
food was delicious!


ROSS NICHOLLS

LOCAL GUIDE

I love this place, as traditional a curry as you can get and reasonably priced.
I tried the Raana chicken last night and it was fabulous. Would definitely
recommend for the curry fans out there


GEORGE ALEX

LOCAL GUIDE

One of the best Indian restaurants in Townsville. A small, cosy place with warm,
friendly staff. Offers a wide variety of authentic, tasty Indian food at an
affordable rate.


KELLI ROBERTSON

LOCAL GUIDE

What you see inside the window is not the whole picture. Thee is another
entrance the runs down the side to the back, so do not be disappointed if the
front is full, just head down the side of the building, The food is good , the
service good and the price is right but unless things have changed they do not
have a liquor licence, However there is a liquor store across the road . All in
all a pleasant place to eat


LINSEY GUMMOW

LOCAL GUIDE

Reliable, delicious and some of the best Indian cuisine in Townsville! My
favourite place to go!


TINA MCLENDON

LOCAL GUIDE

Alishan restaurant is an unassuming little restaurant you could easily overlook
just walking by. But that would be a mistake. We live locally so we eat here
often. The food is excellent. The service is excellent. One gets the sense that
this is a family owned and run restaurant and that the family works hard at
trying to provide delicious meals and a great dining experience. And they are
most successful. There’s the aircon’d front of house section with a handful of
tables and a very pleasant back garden environment. Food is suitably attuned to
the Australian palate so will please everyone. Even those with a more
sophisticated palate will find the food authentic. It’s a winner.


TESSA MCMAHON

LOCAL GUIDE

Had a fantastic dinner with my partner. Super friendly and quick service, plus
absolutely delicious food. Great vegan/ vego options as well. My partner had
butter chicken and said that it was the best he’s ever had. Will be back soon 🙂


IEVA ZAKREVSKA

LOCAL GUIDE

A wonderful little restaurant with delicious Indian flavours! This restaurant
has a good selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes and the service is fast and
friendly! A must visit in Townsville if you’re craving Indian food.


DJCIDE MAHONEY

LOCAL GUIDE

Don’t be put off by the shopfront appearance of this restaurant. It appears
quite small but they also provide an outdoor area for dining. We had the Samosas
( really good), Lamb Madras, Prawns Jalfrezi, steamed rice & Garlic Roti.
Everything was really tasty & very enjoyable. Lovely friendly waitress & really
great value for money. Well worth another visit.


NOEL HOPLEY

LOCAL GUIDE

One of the best indian restaurants in Queensland so happy they are finally
moving to Palmer street to become one of the legacy restaurants of Townsville.
Will always keep coming back!


CHRIS BROWN

LOCAL GUIDE

Delicious tasty food and good size naan portions! There is an additional dining
area around the back which although nothing fancy is nice if you would prefer to
be outside but not on the street.


ROSALYN MORRISSEY

LOCAL GUIDE

Brilliant food… make sure you try the chicken tikka masala!! I used to live in
Melbourne & have now relocated to Townsville… the food options in Melbourne are
amazing, however, this is the best indian take away that I’ve ever tasted!!
Absolutely brilliant!! Job well done!!! ?


WAYNE GARRETT

LOCAL GUIDE

Delicious curries with some real traditional favour and heat. Ordered “hot”, was
good n spicy! Great value lunch special!


MICHAEL CAPTAIN

also BYO so feel free to bring a few drinks to enjoy with your meal.


AMANDA NEWTON

LOCAL GUIDE

Visiting from Melb & have been to northern India. This is the real deal right
here in Townsville. A wonderful meal with complex spices. Fast, efficient &
friendly service & bonus alfresco backyard eating area which is very casual &
atmospheric. We’ll be back to try the fish curry. Thank you


BREMAN JANA

LOCAL GUIDE

Best Indian most authentic in Townsville BY far and friendly service. Reasonable
prices. Good servings of meat. And variable levels of spice. I always love going
here. Not fancy so do not expect 5 star atmosphere or setting


JASMIN O’DONOVAN

the back of the restaurant. Food is always hot, fresh and delicious!


ANA COEN

LOCAL GUIDE

Excellent food, polite waiters, good portions, always bring my visitors to
Townsville here. Pity so small, but then “good things come in small packages”


PENKA GRUBER

LOCAL GUIDE

Fantastic dinner with friend,take away good price and the taste 5 stars.You will
have the best for your choice and money.


MATTHEW SCHULTZ

LOCAL GUIDE

Amazing vegetarian food! What it lacks in decor it makes up for with the food.
When we arrived I wasn’t sure because there was nobody dining in the front of
the restaurant. Then our waitress asked if we would like to sit inside, or out
in the back section. There was a few tables of people out back and I felt much
more comfortable. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover, you won’t be disappointe


KATIE HOWELL

LOCAL GUIDE

Staff were very attentive and friendly. Food was delicious and reasonably
priced. Great range of vegan options and staff were happy to help with
questions. Would recommend


AMY JACKSON

LOCAL GUIDE

Delicious authentic home cooked food. We have dined here countless times and the
food is always spot on. They are so friendly and have heaps of vegan options.
Fast service. I literally can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough. The
Dahl fried vegan is my absolute fav and their pampadums with tamarind sauce are
so good!! Nice airy terrace behind restaurant. Service was pleasant. Very varied
selection. Chicken dahnsak was so tender and the Lamb hydrabadi was the most
tender lamb we had had in a long time. Compliments to the chef.


DAMIEN CAINE

LOCAL GUIDE

I enjoy Aalishan because the flavours in their dishes are given room to express
themselves and are beautifully balanced


YU KYUNG CHOI

LOCAL GUIDE

Outdoor sitting area is very cozy abd food has great flavour. Their individual
curries have nice flavour, generous portion and even their lunch deal is
awesome. If you are in town, wanna have Indian? This place is the one!


DENISE HICKS

LOCAL GUIDE

The hunt for Indian food brought us to this little establishment. Do not be
deterred by the front as the back offers alfresco dining. Was incredibly clean
and went to heated. It was like having dinner in somebody’s back garden. Place
was full of locals which showed how popular it was. We ordered Amritsari Machi
to start with alongside Tarka Daal chicken Bhuna. Also had butter Naan and
tandoori roti. Daal here is probably the best I have have eaten anywhere
ever..it was delicious freshly cooked with fresh curry leaves and the flavours
were to die for. The butter chicken was succulent soft and very delicately
balanced. Kudos to the chef and the staff. I’m just amazed how you guys have
managed to bring about this little wonder. Well done and keep it up.


DAN HOOK

LOCAL GUIDE

We ordered the chicken tiki massala, saffron rice and garlic naan and two mango
lassis. We easily shared the meal between two people and enjoyed the homemade
food. The chicken was perfectly cooked still very moist. The mango lassi was a
bit tart but still very enjoyable. Fantastic service – we were served within 5
minutes by the friendly staff. This family restarting is a hidden gem on Gregory
street would recommend.


RON AND MAVIS MAWHINNEY
