38 Best Indian Restaurants near Lakewood

“Food was great, plenty of it, well seasoned, lots of ingredients and lots of option.“

“We ordered from here last night. Full disclosure before I begin: we're Indian, we cook A LOT of Indian food, therefore we're really picky about our Indian food. The flavor for both dishes was good (saag paneer and lamb masala) but I was disappointed with how little meat and paneer we got in our dishes. Our food took an hour to be ready when they said 30 minutes. When I arrived at the restaurant to pick up our order, there were six people in front of me grumbling that it was taking a really long time. Whoever packed our food used a cracked lid on one of the curry containers, which lead to a mess all over the paper bag not to mention wasted food (that we spent $15 on). My kids liked the paneer and safron rice; they were happy it wasn't too spicy. We didn't dine in obviously but the overall aesthetic of the restaurant was beautiful. I'll probably give them one more chance given they're close by and they're NOT Little India.“

“I had such a great experience here. I have been to Nepal for trekking and had such an amazing time there. I loved the food there, their culture and the whole experience as a whole was really amazing. Ever since getting back to US, I have been looking for a place that felt like being in Nepal, and Namaste really hit the spot. The staff there are amazing, the chef even took time to greet me. Absolutely loved it. Their food and atmosphere is amazing. Make sure to order their MoMos!“

“Authentic, fantastic and tasty Indian food! They are very friendly and have excellent customer service. Our waitress, Nature, was very accommodating and took very good care of us! The owners are also very pleasant and personable, a very family-oriented restaurant.

I highly recommend, you won't be disappointed!“

“This place is an absolute hidden gem in the 32nd Ave neighborhood. My partner and I found it online through some searching and visited for dinner. We were sat right away, the server was very prompt in asking for our drink order and explaining the menu. Both the food and drink were out of this world. Highly recommend going and we will be back soon!“

“Variety like I have never seen before! Menu offers so many choices that I had to venture beyond my tried and true favorites. I usually have Palak or Saag Paneer. I tried a different paneer and the honey curry. Chef noted my desire to stay on the mild spice side. The tandoori chicken wings were among the tops of my wings experience. If you are there for happy hour (starts at 3 pm), you must try them! I ordered a large amount of food so I’d have leftovers to take home.“

“My DU student and I recommend everything! The food is amazing (I recommend the eggplant Ragu), the price is right, and the family that owns and works are lovely and want everyone to be happy and to enjoy their food. It’s amazing!“

“Extremely friendly staff, nice music, and open LATE. The lamb and saag are great, the dry chili tofu appetizer is hands down the best tofu dish I've had to date. Looking forward to exploring the burgers and Greco-Mediterranian parts of the menu in future visits. If you're there during bar hours, The mango chili cocktail is also great.“

“This restaurant is a true celebration of world flavors. The momo dumplings were tender, juicy, and packed with savory goodness. The butter chicken was rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced. The Thai green curry was a standout—aromatic, comforting, and full of fresh herbs and coconut flavor. Each dish honored its roots while coming together in a beautifully curated menu. The staff was warm and attentive, and the cozy ambiance made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone who loves bold, authentic flavors and heartfelt hospitality!“

“A hidden gem. Fantastic food, wonderful staff. 5 stars!“

“Amazing food, prices and atmosphere! Highly recommend“

“We stopped in on a whim because our daughter wanted to try Indian food. Very impressed with this place on all levels. Food, service and atmosphere were all great. Tons of regulars in the place is always a good sign. We will be back!“

“I cannot stop eating here! I’m so glad I popped in one night with my boyfriend and we tried it out because the food here is top notch. It’s hands down the best Indian /Nepali restaurant in Denver and I will continue to eat here weekly whether it’s dine in or take out so I can keep trying new things on the menu! If you like spicy, go for Hot or more, they don’t disappoint! Thank you so much to the whole crew who works here, you all are amazing and the food is magical.“

“Haveli has been our go to Indian place for years. We’ve always ordered to go but stopped by today and the in person service was outstanding. The restaurant has amazing people working there and the food is -always- phenomenal. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you for a great experience Chris & crew- we will see you very soon!!“

“I’ve ordered dinner from Masala probably four times now and it’s always been amazing! The food is fresh and so full of flavor. I usually get the butter chicken & naan. And I’ve also had their vegetarian curry options. Either way- They have plenty of options for certain food restrictions.“

“Best place for masala and burger“

“Really nice, clean, and re-modeled place. The food is fresh and wonderful and reasonably priced. If you are looking for an Indian Food Buffet, all you can eat, this place is outstanding! Actually Indian Buffet's are hard to find now. When ever I am in Denver this is my go-to spot for their wide selection Buffet. I recently enjoyed the spicy Shrimp and several Vegetable dishes. The Chicken dishes were varied and delicious. I noticed they have $5 Draft Beer on tap. Nothing beats a cold beer and spicy Indian food. Highly recommend!“

“The owner of the restaurant just called me a working class driver (in a tone that sounded like he was talking to his slave from a throne) for asking him about a wait time on a delivery order for uber. I don't think my son or I will be eating here for a 7th time, we will take our hard earned lower class money to Yak & Yetti for some better made food and company. People like him that are dismissive of another persons right to service based on financial class will come back as a snake...“

“Excellent food and very friendly staff. Small quiet place, with nice ambiance. Will be visiting again soon. Anxious to try out some different dishes! Highly recommend!“

“My date and I had such a wonderful time and experience. We felt as though we were so wanted. I asked for the server's recommendations and he did not fail us... just simply awesome! This is our date night spot. Chef Tony McCummings“

“This is truly one of the best restaurants in all of Denver. The food is carefully prepared with authentic spice blends and fresh ingredients. The wait staff and owner couldn't be more kind and welcoming. His wife prepares the momo (dumplings) herself, and the fried pastry just melts in your mouth. They offer both Indian and Nepalese food, and I have never had better. The traditional serviceware makes the dining experience that much more special. Highly recommend!!“

“They have one of the best Birayani I have ever tasted in the US. They are very friendly, clean, and nice place to sit and eat. Lots of Nepalese music and vibes and run by Nepali owners.“

“Our favorite local food, and there is a lot of competition nearby! Their mixed grill plate has yet to disappoint anyone we’ve had try it, and I love all of the eggplant dishes. Great naan, great apps, everything’s great.“

“Every time I order from this restaurant, they knock it out of the park. The sweet potato masala is the smoothest, creamiest, best tasting I've had. The garlic naan is always perfect. Honestly though, I have never had anything from Himchuli RINO that wasn't wonderful. The food and the service are equally terrific.“

“Delicious! Excellent service and very pleasant atmosphere!“

“The food was delicious, the portions were generous. Felt like a neighborhood. highly recommend.“

“Best service and Best food“

“I am new to Himalayan food. The food here was delicious! The staff was so helpful in explaining the food and the traditions. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Very beautiful interior, with dim lighting. Really enjoyed Lamb Biryani and Mango Lassi (highly recommend if you like fresh mangos).“

“I love Spice Trade. it's pretty far to travel for me to get there, but well.worth or every time. I bring everyone who comes to visit us in CO there, it's perfect for my Girls Nights Out, and perfect for lunch with family and friends as well. My fellow likes to go there for the brews, I love the foods (ok, and brews...meads...wines...and cocktails too 😉). Chris the GM is outstanding and he probably doesn't know it but he's offered me 3 tours of the brewery when I was there with my girls/fam/friends. I've taken him up on that every time. 😊 I also love the wait staff, they're personable and often times it's a family affair. I highly recommend this place!“
