Andrew Cerda

Great options beyond the Americanized Indian fare. Try the coondapur kori for a tasty and mild option to compliment their spicy food (like the patiala lamb kabab ). 

DoubleDeuce

Great quality Indian food if you're hunting for a spot on Curry Row . A bit too expansive of a menu but good for family style ordering. Also, "malai marke" means "extra malai (buttery cream sauce )".

Noah Weiss

From the owners of Dhaba (best indian in NYC), this is the best restaurant on Curry row . Lots of coastal curries you won't normally find. The more spicy and coconut-y, the better.

Nick Andlinger

Delicious and quick delivery . Love a place that isn't afraid to go super spicy . Forsure going back.

Avneesh Kohli

The food quality is exceptional, and the lunch special is a great deal! If you like spicy food , ask for their special achar sauce on the side.

Loren

Much better (and a little pricier ) than your average Indian place. Consistently delicious w good ingredients and extra veg/vegan friendly . A favorite is dal saag – unreal how tasty it is.

Christian Dickmann

Chicken Tikka Masala was excellent, but "Chicken Xacuti" was a great choice as well . Naan is a must, Mango Lassi was very thick and tasty. Definitely a great Indian restaurant .

Ernesto Gutierrez

Spicy food lovers will indulge with the Madurai melagu curry with lamb . A true test to how much spiciness you can take. They have weihenstephaner Weiss bier on tap ! Servos!

Chad Woodford

Everything’s great, nice and spicy too. Only thing is: the “roti ” is just really dry naan bread , nothing like authentic roti . I’d pass on the roti

Barton Smith

A little pricier but the best I've had in East Village . All of them are great but the Saag Paneer stands out the most.

Jeremy Fisher

Good writeup on Chowhound. Recommended dishes include: Patiala Lamb Kabab spiced - pan grilled lamb patties, Chicken Achari, Seekh Kabab , Chicken Tikka Masala Read more

Jon Steinback

nice, creative indian restaurant . also, they have a great, expansive vegetarian and vegan menu .

ben m

Great flavors and plenty of options. If you like heat, let them know, they will definitely bring it.

Serious Eats

Not your average Curry Row restaurant . The huge menu has dishes from all over India, and most of them succeed.

JOSH ARCHER

Tons of food for $10. The Tikka Masala had a more sophisticated taste than I've had anywhere else. Good water. I give it 5 naans !

Dina Rughani

Coconut chicken curry . Ask for them to make it spicy . Great lunch special deal !

Kelli M

Chicken in the Tikki Marsala is actually quite good, not just crap chunks masked with sauce! Also very nice bathrooms .

Thomas Mo

Join the spicy club! I've tried the Phaal and Lal Maas and loved them (Lal Maas is more spicy ). Maduria Melgu comes next.

Morgan Jordan

I love the food, but don't expect the best service on the weekends. Try the chicken tikka masala . Best I've had in awhile!

Chelsea Balkan

#dubiDO #FabuLIST malai kebab and lamb chops are delicious and full of flavor!! Great naan as well .

Justin

The Food there was amazing. I had a fish dish along with some Naan . Everyone was complementing the Chef when I was there.

Kavita Baba

Vegetarian Indian giving this place a seal of approval. The chili paneer is legit spicy . Biryani is a little dry. And the kurkuri bhindi is like catnip.

Robert Freeborn

Everyone is talking about the chicken tikka but don't miss the chili paneer , ragara patties and the rogan josh!

Sadik Aydin Photography

Tandoor kebabs Chicken tikka and rice choices. Delightful! enjoy!

Natalie V

Service was a little slow but the food is on point. Can't go wrong with the okra and lamb kebabs .

Adrien

Lunch special for $11.95 comes with cabbage , rice , lentils and roti . coondapur kori is a hit!

AmateurConcierge

Solid Indian offerings. A cut above the curry row competition. Still curry row tho

Ethan jacon

Great Indian food quality. Consistently delightful with excellent ingredients. Great varieties.

Mai

The lunch special is very filling and affordable . Loved the chicken tikka masala ????

Kira Fisher

So amazing! Get any of the shrimp curries , also the okra dry fry. Stick to coastal specialities just because they are more unique.

ms

Favorite for Indian. You can't go wrong but I order the coondapur kori every time anyway

Ruby Anaya

My new go to spot - make sure to ask for fresh green chillies .

Matt Graham

It's pricey but plenty of food and the naan almost makes it worth it by itself.

Umair Zia

Brown guy review here. Best Indian food I've had. Expensive as hell. And the service blows. But the food is too good, you'll ignore all the bad. Get the Murgh Makhni, Lamb Jalfrezi, Peas Palav.

Fabian Martin

Great lunch special for 12.95$

David Dunhill

Best Indian in the east village . Great service and legitimate spice.

Joe Kahn

Mutter paneer was great and large enough to share with my partner

Zaza Gilson

A bit pricey but delicious! The restaurant has beautiful decor.

Brian Kiraly

I have not had a bad dish here yet. Everything is good

Pratheeksha KS

It's no generic Indian food . Get the Malai marke paneer and onion naan

Dmitriy D.

Try the Murgh Korma . It's quite delicious with tandoor roti .

Robyn Grier

Fantastic lamb and malai kofta dishes, smoked cauliflower .

Vivian Kong

Solid Indian dishes , lunch menu is SO filling!

Mike McBryan

Lunch special . Chicken Tikka . Add garlic naan . $9.

Amy Cummings

Essentially no atmosphere (we were the only ones in there) but the food was good! I think it’s more of a takeout place.

Celine C

Chicken Chettinad is super good for those who like spicy food :)

Craig Austin

Lots of great seafood and coconut curry from Kerala

Michael ???? Elmgreen

High quality Indian. They charge you for the rice because it's also high quality.

Conall Arora

Very good indian food but not the best in the city .

Aldo Graziani
