Curry with rice, naan and salad at The Gulmohar Indian Restaurant & Bar

The Gulmohar Indian Restaurant & Bar brings a wide-ranging Indian menu to Victoria Street in central Hamilton. Weekday lunch is followed by dinner every night, making the restaurant useful for both a planned evening meal and a city-centre lunch. Its identity is broader than a short list of familiar curries: dishes draw on several Indian regions, the bar supports a longer visit, and a small Indo-Chinese section introduces a separate line of wok-cooked flavours alongside the tandoor and curry kitchen.

The tandoor section provides a strong way to begin. Paneer tikka gives vegetarians a substantial charcoal-cooked choice, while chicken appears as tikka, garlic tikka and a traditional bone-in tandoori preparation. Lamb seekh kebabs, marinated prawns and fish extend the high-heat cooking across different proteins. Mixed platters are useful for sharing because they gather several preparations in one order, allowing the table to compare yoghurt marinades, aromatic spice blends and the smoky character created by the clay oven.

Curries cover chicken, lamb, beef, goat, seafood and vegetable-led options, with sauces moving from tomato and onion to cashew, coconut, spinach and fenugreek. The Indian-Chinese dishes create a different contrast: chilli paneer and vegetable Manchurian place vegetables and cheese into soy-seasoned, capsicum-rich preparations, while chilli chicken and chilli prawns take the same fusion idea towards meat and seafood. A group can therefore order recognisable regional curries while adding brighter, stickier wok dishes to break up the meal.

Rice, biryani and bread make the menu especially adaptable for sharing. Plain and cumin rice sit beside chicken, lamb, beef, vegetable and prawn biryani, while naan, roti, kulcha and paratha come in both simple and filled versions. Aloo paratha, paneer kulcha and keema naan can add substance without another curry. Gulab jamun or mango kulfi offers a traditional sweet finish, and mango lassi supplies a cooling drink when the table has chosen dishes with more chilli and spice.
