Naan, rice and curries served at Bombay Palace Queenstown

Bombay Palace Queenstown is the Shotover Street member of a small restaurant group that also operates in Frankton and Wānaka. The kitchen frames Indian food through the culinary range of Bombay and through traditions from both the north and south of India. That breadth makes the restaurant useful for a mixed table: one meal can move from crisp starters and clay-oven cooking to creamy curries, sharper spice, rice dishes and fresh bread.

The curry selection offers several distinct styles rather than treating sauce as a single formula. Butter chicken combines tomato, cream, butter, cashew and spice, while chicken tikka masala starts with barbecued chicken and brings in onion, tomato, yoghurt and crushed cashew. Korma leans on coconut, nuts and gentle richness, whereas Madras provides a more direct spice profile. Paneer butter masala, kadai paneer and slow-cooked lentils give vegetarian diners equally composed choices.

Tandoor cooking can shape the opening half of the meal. A sampler for two brings together tandoori chicken, herb-marinated chicken, lamb seekh kebab and fish tikka, allowing several marinades and textures to be compared on one plate. The vegetarian platter follows the same generous idea with paneer tikka, tandoori mushrooms, onion bhajis and hara bhara kebab. Vegetable samosas with tamarind chutney are a simpler start for diners who would rather choose their mains separately.

Rice and bread make it easy to tune the meal to the table. Chicken, lamb, prawn and vegetable biryanis build spice into basmati rice and arrive with raita, while pilau and cumin-pea rice work as supporting dishes. The bread list stretches beyond plain and garlic naan to Kashmiri naan filled with dried fruit and coconut, keema naan with spiced lamb, layered lachha paratha and paneer-stuffed wholemeal bread. A group can therefore balance rich curries with both fragrant rice and contrasting tandoor-baked breads.
