Bombay Palace Frankton is the Frankton branch of the Queenstown restaurant group, with its own dining room and active lunch and dinner service on Frankton Road. Diners can book a table or order directly from the branch, making it useful for both a seated Indian meal and a convenient local pickup. The menu is broad enough to serve a mixed group without losing its focus on tandoor cooking and curries.
Starters move from well-known favourites into more distinctive vegetarian bites. Onion bhaji and vegetable or lamb samosas sit alongside hara bhara kebab and beetroot-and-cheese tikki. For groups, the tandoori sharing platter gathers several grilled items, while the vegetarian platter provides a fried and spiced alternative. These combinations offer an easy way to compare textures before choosing individual mains.
Classic curry styles form the heart of the menu. Butter chicken, tikka masala and korma cover the creamy end of the spectrum, while Madras and vindaloo offer more heat. Bhuna, saagwala and balti preparations add further variation across chicken, lamb and prawns. Signature options push beyond those standards with slow-cooked Nawabi lamb shank, mustard-and-curry-leaf Kerala fish curry, Goan fish curry, jalfrezi and kadhai dishes.
Vegetarian diners have a substantial selection rather than a few token sides. Dal makhani, chana masala and vegetable korma bring pulses and vegetables to the centre of the meal, while palak paneer and paneer butter masala offer contrasting cheese-based curries. Biryanis, basmati rice and Indian breads complete the table, making it straightforward to build a shared spread around both meat-based and vegetarian mains.
