Red Pepper

After an incredible 18-year journey at 14 Bourke Street, we say farewell to our long-standing venue. We have made some amazing memories here shared with you all, our wonderful customers. Thank you for being an essential part of this leg of our Indian culinary adventure in Melbourne!

That being said, super exciting changes are on the horizon, as we'll soon be relocating to a brand new space with a brand new concept. We can't wait to continue serving you with mouthwatering flavors & heartfelt hospitality.

Stay tuned for updates on our next project! You can also subscribe to our mailing list by visiting our website (link in bio).

In the meantime, let's raise a toast to the new beginnings that await us!

Have you experienced our Punjabi village-style Saag dish, which has been on the menu every day since opening? Superb flavours and creamy texture.

This dish takes time to prepare, with mustard leaves simmering overnight with fenugreek leaves, spinach, garlic, ginger and green chilli.

Indian saag takes "greens" to the next level. A well loved vegetarian dish across India.☀️

Bhang Chicken is a rich and rewarding dish from the north of India. The use of bhang seeds in the chicken curry may sound exotic, but it provides loads of flavour.

Experience this popular dish yourself at Red Pepper.

Chana Masala is a delightful Vegan dish featuring chickpeas and spices.

Experience our signature vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes.

Lunch or dinner, if you are looking for a sensory dining experience, Red Pepper delivers on taste, texture, aroma and presentation. Not to mention you can eat some dishes with your hands (eg Naan scooped into Butter Chicken).🔥

How do you like your Butter Chicken? How about creamy and mild, with expert use of spices.

Perfect comfort food no matter the weather, come and try our famous Butter Chicken at Red Pepper.

Order some Spiced Vegetable Samosas as the perfect Starter at Red Pepper. 🔥

Looking down Bourke St across from Red Pepper, with easy tram access and parking nearby.

Bhang Chicken features boneless chicken w/ spices & crushed, roasted h**p seeds (medium hot). This dish pays homage to the great h**p seeds - they are so rich & nutty. Widely used in the North Indian scenic regions of Himachal, Uttarakhand & beyond. (Note, h**p seeds are not the same as bhang!) 🔥
