13 Best Indian Restaurants in Brooklyn

“I never realized this place was so close to where I lived. I heard the Indian spices were a nice twist to the dishes they served. Started with the dosa, the chutneys were good. The steak was very buttery, but I didn't get much unique flavor aside from the peppercorn. The fries that came with it were great, nice and crispy. The jerk chicken was tender, but not as spicy as I would have thought. I did like the pickled vegetables to change up the flavors. Interesting concept, but I think they could have taken a little more risk with the flavors.“

“The owner and staff are wonderful“

“When I walked in the restaurant the delicious aromas let me know I made a good choice. The food was absolutely amazing with vegan/vegetarian options and even a complimentary gluten free appetizer. The staff was welcoming and the service great. The prices were reasonable, but the best part was the delicious food!!“

“It’s been a little over two weeks since I’ve been here and I’ve had Indian food elsewhere and cannot get out my head the amazing food I had here. I had the Butter Paneer with the Chili Garlic Naan and I still think about it, hoping I find it elsewhere. I cannot. Looking forward to going back! Service was also amazing; they were very attentive and kind. Only thing strange was how empty it was, no problem getting a table with a party of three.“

“Very good food. Creative and interesting dishes. The environment is also nice and calm.“

“I recently dined at a Masalawala and was blown away by the amazing and unique flavors of their dishes in their thali ( cottage cheese dumplings, fries and luchi were my fav) Each bite was a delightful explosion of taste that I had never experienced before. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made the dining experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to indulge in a culinary adventure.“

“I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. The food is amazing. Fresh, natural ingredients. Their drinks are truly like I've said-works of art. They are talented mixologists!! The food is made to your liking-spicy, not spicy etc. We like it spicy and they will even adjust the spice level to whatever your liking. The ambiance is very nice-with candles just perfect for that special night out. We are addicted!!!“

“The restaurant was slightly off the tourist truck, but it was busy with people. The service is friendly but very slow compared to New York's ways of service. The place is simple inside, with nothing to brag about, but the food explodes with flavors. I ordered Vindaloo, which is a lamb dish, and it is so spicy and garlic naan break. The dish was delicious, and eat every bit of it. The sauce was so good i used naan to finish it off. I want to return and order more, but this time, i will ask for the authentic level of spice.“

“I had a couple slices of pepperoni pizza last month here with low expectations and was impressed. Best pizza in NYC? No but up there with the best $3 slices in NYC. The bagels are handmade here and lovely as well.But on to the star of the show: the Indian food is great. Chicken Chaat was really spicy in a nice way, a medley of great flavor with some heat. Samosas were fresh and crunchy on the outside. Lamb biryani was delightful, not too herbaceous but well balanced and nice meat chunks.I'll be back soon to try the Indian fusion pizza! Can't wait.Update: the Indian pizza is the best. Why is this not a thing yet? It will be soon. The crust could be better but the flavors on all their pizzas are phenomenal. The chefs here are creative and care about the quality they put out.I just tried their bagels again and maybe I got a fresh batch but they are so much better than I remember. Soft and chewy with perfect flavor. Not very dense but I think that's a plus. Omar's is one of my favorite places in Brooklyn. They deliver quickly and everything is great. We've ordered a dozen times from Omar's and have never been disappointed. My favorite dish is probably lamb korma. I hope they will offer a lamb korma pizza one day. I luv Omar's!“

“10/10 would recommend to a friend! Came here after reading other reviews and glad I listened to what others have said. Great food, friendly staff, and very cool atmosphere! Had the Chicken Biryani, Garlic Naan, and Chai Martini - all were amazing.“

“(Translated by Google) New York's unbeatable spot for a delicious breakfast.The lady is a cooking expert called a magician!!!(Original)মুখরোচক নাস্তার জন্য নিউইয়র্ক এর অপ্রতিদ্বন্দ্বী একটি স্থান।ভদ্রমহিলা একজন রান্না বিশেষজ্ঞ বলা যায় জাদুকর!!!“

“Giving it 4 stars only because certain items here are very sweet like Paneer Makhani. It tasted like candy to me. This is constructive feedback so you’re able to improvise on the Paneer Makhani and add more flavor to it than just sweetness.PS: They definitely know how to cook Indian food as other items tasted good from my previous experience.“

“I’ve eaten at this restaurant three times in person and once online via Uber eats and I can safely say the food here is excellent.The staff is friendly and welcoming, the decor is pleasant, the food is affordable, and the area itself isn’t too bad. I must admit that It’s easy to miss if you’re coming here as it’s a bit small and hidden away.Me and my partner have personally enjoyed the Butter Chicken and Lamb Korma.“
