21 Best Indian Restaurants near East Hartford

“I decided to try this local establishment (East Hartford location) after my boyfriend, who is of Irish American ancestry, frequently mentioned it to me. The food was incredibly delicious and authentic. The atmosphere is relaxed, with families and friends enjoying their meals together. The staff members were all very professional, and the value is truly exceptional. I plan to return as often as possible.“

“We had a wonderful lunch at Dhaba Wala. Delicious and at a good price 😋“

“Wonderful indian cuisine! We were served the best samosas that I've ever had. I ordered the Aloo Gobi and my spouse got the Kadai Chicken, both medium spice. We both really enjoyed our meals a lot and I have enough leftovers for another meal. The restaurant has a small dine in area and while we were there one other group was dining in. Most other customers came in to pick up their take out. Wonderful food and wonderful service! Thank you!“

“They have good food, friendly service, just good all around. Recommended!“

“Hands down the best Indian buffet that I've ever had in the US. Thursday is their Dosa night where they have a live Dosa station along with South Indian staples served in buffet style. On the weekends they have buffet lunch ranging from Goat Dum biriyani to Haryali green chili chicken to their famous Tawa fish (amazing appetizer). If you're around Hartford or a student at UConn do yourself a favor and visit this place for their buffets. The restaurant is clean, they serve alcohol , service is excellent and the food is honestly to die for! I cannot recommend this place enough 👌🏼💯“

“With traveling around a lot for work and my kids sports, i try a lot of restaurants around the state. Joe and his staff are polite, friendly and courteous. The food (especially the naan) is amazing and well worth the trip. The kids enjoyed the lassi's as well. Highly recommend to go here“

“it's a very newly opened restaurant.. went there today on Thanksgiving... lovely food.. great quality.. had their lunch buffet... amazing price with warm welcome.. highly recommend .. very close to my home in Rocky Hill“

“​Sri Balaji is an absolute gem in Manchester for high-quality, authentic South Indian vegetarian and vegan cuisine. The food here is consistently outstanding packed with clean, vibrant, and traditional flavors that never disappoint.
​Beyond the great menu, the hospitality is incredibly warm and welcoming. The team goes out of their way to accommodate specific dietary preferences, making it a stress-free experience if you are looking for strictly vegan options.

​One quick tip on space: The onsite dining area is quite limited and intimate. While it is absolutely perfect for a casual meal for a small party of 2 to 4 people, it isn't set up for large groups. If you are thinking of enjoying their food for a big gathering, I highly recommend leaning on their excellent pick-up or takeout service instead. A wonderful local spot!“

“Great Food and service😀“

“Amazing food and very friendly staff.“

“We’ve been searching for a new Indian restaurant after our favorite place went out of business. We went to Bhog tonight for the first time for our anniversary and loved it! Our server was so welcoming and friendly. She recommended the Cauliflower Manchurian for an appetizer, and it was delicious. Both of our meals were excellent as well. We will be back!“

“Good and convenient. Lunch special is good size.“

“I drove by Bombay Olive for years. Sunday night a friend suggested we go for dinner, now I’ll never look back. It was difficult choosing dishes but everything we ordered was flavorful and delicious. The garlic naan was devoured before I could take a picture lol. I’m going back so I can begin working my way through the whole menu.“

“As a Chef.. The food is Fantabulous!! If your in the Hartford area or just visiting this NOT something you wanna miss out on! I think I'm bout throw my next B-day here. I might even rent out a room down stairs to have as another get away for me as my little Honey Comb Hide out🤔🤗“

“The food is always delicious no matter what we order! The service is friendly and responsive; fast but you never feel rushed. Their food is fresh, rice is fluffy, vegetable are my favorite. When we ordered a shrimp dish, there were so many shrimp it made splitting the dish with everyone very easy. I highly recommend this restaurant, it is a pleasure going there.“

“I ordered on the way home, last minute. The service was fast and friendly, and the food delicious.“

“We visited Desi Bazaar several times during last few months and had an overall average experience. The store offers a good variety of South Asian groceries, including spices, snacks, and frozen items, making it convenient for basic shopping, though some products were limited or out of stock. The layout is fairly organized but could be improved for easier navigation, and while prices are generally reasonable, a few items seemed slightly expensive. The staff were polite, but assistance was not always readily available.“

“Staff was extremely friendly in helping us to decide what to eat. Everything was delicious. Fun place to eat!“

“Lunch buffet = AMAZING!!!“
