From South Melbourne, Aagaman Port Melbourne on Bay Street sits about eight minutes down Montague Street when roads are flowing. It is the closest venue to South Melbourne Market and MSAC — a straight stop after errands or laps in the pool.
Aagaman Port Melbourne is at 271 Bay Street. We serve Indian and Nepalese food — curries, tandoor cooking, breads and Himalayan dishes — in a sit-down dining room.
Guests often order Ram Ko Andaz (Nepali goat, lentils and rice with pickle — traditionally eaten by hand), Jhol Momos served in spiced broth and Dal Makhani that cooks eighteen hours before service. Gurkha Crunch is fried chicken with a Nepalese chilli glaze for sharing first. Cocktails pair well with spice-heavy mains if you ask the team.
What sets Aagaman apart from other Indian restaurants near Port Melbourne is the Himalayan side of the menu. Most restaurants do not offer it. Ram Ko Andaz is Chef Ram Sapkota's own Nepali dish — goat, lentils, rice and pickle, eaten by hand the way it would be at home in Nepal. The Jhol Momos are hand-folded dumplings served in slow-cooked Himalayan broth. You will not find them done this way anywhere else on Bay Street.
Car: Montague Street westbound into Bay Street, roughly eight minutes from the market precinct. Tram: Route 96 from Clarendon Street toward St Kilda, hop off Bay Street Stop 134 and walk a few doors toward the CBD numbers.
