About Drunken Monkey Indian Tapas Bar & Restaurant

Drunken Monkey Indian Tapas Bar & Restaurant is an indian restaurant in North Adelaide, Adelaide. Tastibase scores each of its dishes individually from real customer reviews, instead of rolling everything into one star average — so you can see exactly what this kitchen does well, dish by dish.

Its standout is Paneer Dosa, scoring 6.9/10 — a solid result from 13 review mentions — and 2 other dishs have enough reviews to rank as well.

What it does best

The dishes diners rate most highly here are Paneer Dosa (6.9), MANGO LASSI (6.6) and Garlic & Cheese Naan (6.5). A good score on Tastibase means the praise is consistent across many independent reviews rather than a one-off, so these are the safe orders.

Regulars most often single out its paneer dosa, mango lassi, garlic & cheese naan — a good place to start if it’s your first visit.

How these scores work

Every score here comes only from public reviews from the last three years, weighted so a single glowing write-up can’t inflate a dish — a kitchen needs steady, repeated praise to rank well. Tastibase’s dish scores sit alongside Drunken Monkey Indian Tapas Bar & Restaurant’s overall 4.1-star rating, but go a level deeper: they tell you which specific dishes are worth ordering, not just how the venue rates overall.

How scores work: Tastibase scores individual dishes, not whole restaurants. AI sentiment (85%) + star ratings (15%), Bayesian-shrunk, last 3 years only. Full methodology →
