Tonka is a one-hat restaurant opened in 2013 by the founders of Coda, Mykal and Kate Bartholomew. Tucked away on Duckboard Place just off Flinders Lane, Tonka is celebrated in The Age Good Food Guide for its blend of modern Indian flavours with refined European touches, all built around fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Signature dishes like pani puri, prawn betel leaves, tandoori chicken tikka and slow-braised lamb curry are served in an elegant yet relaxed space, with sweeping windows, Naomi Troski’s ethereal ceiling artwork and soft lighting ideal for both date nights and casual dining.
Warm, attentive service and a welcoming approach where walk-ins are accommodated whenever possible.
Reservations recommended.
