Swagatam – Welcome to i VILLAGE at Victoria

One very good reason to go down to Victoria Park Market is to have a wonderful Indian meal. iVillage has been around for the past six years and is run by the delightful effervescent Dimple and her team.

What’s behind the name?
i Village brings you the heart and soul of Indian cooking - straight from the villages where tradition and recipes have remained unchanged and authentic for many centuries. We stand behind our name, i stands for Indian.

Tell us about your menu. What are some dishes you’d recommend?
Customers tell us about their preferences all the time, so some offerings have become signature dishes such as tandoori trio, i Bullets, tandoori whole snapper, lamb shank curry and chicken vindaloo. Our regulars would suggest you try any of these.

Are you able to cater for diet/food allergies?
Yes, we have a seperate vegan menu and we do cater for patrons with dietary restrictions or allergies - be it for health or cultural reasons.

We know you have a good wine list, but do you serve any delicious Indian beers?
Yes, we have formulated our own Indian lager and have the people’s choice i Beer on tap. We also have other premium Indian beers available.

i Village looks like a perfect venue for events... tell us about some of those you’ve hosted?
We have been home to some memorable events including a Bollywood night. We have the perfect venue for the celebration of birthdays, anniversaries, weddings. We are popular for team lunches, staff meetings. Some things were never meant to change: i Village remains committed to the old and time-tested ways of Indian cooking. No short cuts, no twists or turns, simply delivering Asli and authentic Indian food as it was always meant to be.
