Aangan West Footscray

Overview

With nine locations and counting, Aangan in Footscray is a true success story in the Indian culinary scene. With an interior reminiscent of Indian culture, the goal at Aangan is to transport one back to India, not just through the ambience but the skilfully and artfully prepared dishes. 

Chef's specials include andhra fish, tossed in a wok and flavoured with mustard seeds and curry leaves, garnished with cashews and served on a sizzling platter while vegetarians can enjoy onion rings coated in batter and fried. 

The rest of the menu is enormous, and highlights dishes from all across India. For some Indo-Chinese flavours, we recommend you try the chilli gobhi — a batter-fried cauliflower tossed in chilli sauce with a side of egg chowmein. 

There is a long list of curries too, including favourites such as butter chicken and lamb korma. Then there are the numerous fish curries. These range from a hot vindaloo to a cool coconut with ground spices. 

The dessert menu is not to be missed either, with local favourites amongst the classics.

Aangan prides itself on its excellent service and attention to detail, while the ambience of the room itself embraces the elegance of a time-gone-by India. With space for large bookings and an excellent catering service, Aangan is a top fixture in the Footscray culinary scene. Be sure to book for weekends as they regularly pack out.
