A beloved Sydney institution according to the predominantly white, drunken crowd that it serves in Sydney's east, but there's severely limited food options in that part of town so saying it's one of the best late night eats in the area is like winning by default. That drunkenness comes into play because the food is ash. I don't mean metaphorically, I mean the food comes literally burnt, not just charred - burnt, and the acrid taste of burnt carbon is hard to escape if you have any decent palate. Both chicken and naan from the tikka come that way. Combined with the lack of care for temperature (spoiler alert - naan gets cold quickly, if it's not freshly cooked it's cold) it makes it a slog to get through it. And the curry sauce? Tasteless, amusingly bland as is befitting for the clientele coming in. I had rogan Josh and wasn't getting much spice or depth of flavour from it at all. There's many, many, easy to find Indian places that don't involve heading out to western Sydney for that make sauces more enjoyable than this, this would easily be amongst the least flavorful I've had in Sydney, period. Service is underwhelming- they don't speak up despite the noise so it's hard to hear things but also there's no real system- no hints about where to wait, how long, and where to collect and or pay even, and how they're tracking your order. The unfriendliness might be suitable for long lines of drunk crowds but on my visit I had just beaten that crowd, who came in promptly after I ordered. Then we come to the crowd itself - boisterous, ignoring personal space, not entirely surprising, but the numbers that this place are famous for seem to be a result of the throttling that happens - it seems like they are limited by the tikka coming from the back, so speed is not their forte (which, I'm just putting there as guidance, I don't mark them down further for this). I don't have any positives about this place, that the concept is unique in Sydney is true but I'm eating the execution and not the idea. Like some late night kebab places you go because it's the only option available after a long night of drinking.

Been coming here for years since we used to live close by. Even now we still come back - it’s still the best ⭐️. Recommend the #7 double tikka garlic jumbo. Bit worried it would close down after COVID, but so glad it has survived and thrived on the other side. Thank you Indian Home Diner!

The place is clean, and the staff are friendly. Kebabs are filling but I think they forgot to add mint sauce in mine (my friends got it) so it was a little dry. The flavors were great though. Butter chicken + onion bhaji was a good combo.

Been here many times and it never disappoints. I recommend getting the garlic and cheese naan with butter chicken!

Our takeaway meal was excellent. We bought a variety of lamb, chicken and veggie curries. They all had generous portions of meat / veggies and tasted delicious. Our sides of onion bhaji and garlic naan were great too. I highly recommend Indian Home Diner.

Hands down the best indian takaway i ever had. Staff were amazing being my fist time there.... amazing food and delicious mango lassi to wash it all down. Cant believe i drive past this place 10 times every night and never stopped here. Do try it. If you dont like it send me your receipt and I'll refund you 😂😂😂

Soft warm naan bread, tender tandoori chicken and the curry is just perfect. Loved it! Highly recommended. Can be a quick heavy snack or even a whole meal. We came here after seeing the recommendation from Mark Wein (YouTuber) and it was worth it! Cheap and the really good food. They have lots of different options to choose from including the curries. From sweet & mild to hot and spicy. We got the classic chicken tikka and it was enough for 1 but they had other sizes as well. The place is relatively small and there are no/limited dining-in option.

Honestly absolutely lovely people. I had lost my bank card and ordered not knowing. They said fix up the cost next time. Amazing gesture great food. Thank you so much the little things go so far. Highly recommend

Live nearby and know my Indian food well.. Finally went here as Tandoori Palace has closed, Malabar you need a million $ bank account for as prices have gone crazy, Brick Lane, interesting but strip lighting is never great and North Indian on Oxford St, although always good it’d be nice to have a backup This was woeful. Truly woeful. Cold Nan bread, cold beef Vindaloo, not like warm, fridge cold… and the beef was the toughest I’ve encountered in years, rock solid. 6 minutes from being served until I opened at home and I took a thermal bag to keep it warm! Indeed thinking back I saw no heat/steam coming from the bais-marie at all, it just possibly wasn’t turned on. So if you want a late night kebab.. it might be great.. but don’t expect much else.. Truly the worst Indian food I’ve encountered.

Got takeaway tonight. Very unimpressed. I go here all the time and tonight I don't know what happened. Had 2 Filipino women serving who were extremely rude not just to myself but to other customers who were ordering. The chicken tikka was extremely dry and small, normally their tikka is one thing they really know how to cook. It might have been a new chef, if it was FIRE Him/her immediately. The naan bread was not a naan it was the size of a hand. Very disappointing from somewhere where you used to get very appealing food did not happen tonight. If they keep going like this they will be loosing alot of customers as they have lost me and other people I have recommended the place too. If the quality of the food is there you don't mind what you pay but for the prices they have you expect quality and quantity.

i have never been here but it sounds cool. you probably made the food with your toes. that's why i could taste my own earwax inside the curry?

The Indian Kebabs here are next level. They are so fresh and the fact that you have 12 different curry options allows you to try something different every time if you wish. 10/10 recommend. After trying many, my personal favorite is the #7 Kebab with Lamb Korma

Their tikka Indian kebabs are you die for! Had one and will definitely be a repeat customer. No seating or tables so don't dine in, but they make up for it with food quality, taste and price

Just as advertised on social media. The food was great and reasonably priced. The staff wasn't in a chatty mood so I could not ask about the dish or recommendations so I ordered what the guy Infront of me was having which was the double tikka. It was so huge it took 2 of us to finish it. Definitely will be back again.

The food was really bad. The butter chicken was without any flavour, very watery and had large chicken pieces. The dal was hard and tasteless. The veg samosa was just full of peas. Less said the better about the rest. Money wasted! I am surprised they get away with such food. Not ordering ever again.

4 stars but could so easily be 5. Your kebab off Uber eats used to be my favourite takeaway food in Sydney, but you’ve recently taken away the ability to choose your curry of choice. Please bring it back - man who wants a vindaloo kebab

I had the best experienced there. The best thing I had was butter chicken and the samosa was really big and fantastic. And the service was really awesome.

They make a mean kebab. Heard from a number of different sydney siders about this place and they didn't disappoint

Such a cool experience to see them make the Indian Kebabs in front of you! There were so many options to choose from and combinations you’re able to make! The Naan, curry and chicken combinations are so tasty. Would definitely come back here!

Indian kebabs are just next level, not only are they flavourful and generous in their portion but they’re also so cheap! They place a naan, add a curry of your choice, chop up chicken tikka and chop up your choice of an onion or potato fritter. I’ve been having this since lockdown and it’s always been so good. Basic but superb is the butter chicken, I recommend that above all else.

Great place, amazing service and bangin food. I placed a large order ant they offered a large drink on the house. If you don't know what to get or if its your first time, you can't go wrong with a no 5, butter chicken sauce with onion bhaji!

So freaking good - my friends and I inhaled our rolls in minutes. This photo does not do the experience justice and I wish I took a photo of the long queue and massive gather of customers outside all sharing the same level of excitement :") worth the hype!
