The food is outstanding!!! We have been here four times since it opened, and each time has been a treat!
Food was outstanding. Service was outstanding. Owner of restaurant came to our table to answer questions and appreciated us bringing there. We told the Server it was our wedding anniversary and they had a menu printed with the date and a personal message to us. That's the kind of white glove experience that will keep me coming back and will also be telling my friends about.
Food was a nice twist on traditional Indian. Very friendly service but quite slow during busy time. Fun atmosphere. Will definitely go back!
This was one of the most outstanding and delicous meals I had in a long time. They took many Indian food staples and put a upscale spin while staying true to the wonderful spices and.tastes of the traditional dish. We thoroughly enjoyed Indus and will be back soon
We are happy to have a "progressive" Indian restaurant in the neighborhood! We enjoyed some of the more unique items on the menu for something out of the norm. Bravo to our lovely server Gigi, for her excellent service!
This restaurant is superb. The food is unique, memorable and gorgeous. Our go-to meal and day!
For vegetarians, there are more options for appetizers and salads. For entrees, they didn't have many options. Just two I believe. The cocktails are pretty good.
Restaurant offers a nice atmosphere. Staff is friendly and service is quick even during peak time. Menu offers a few unique dishes you can't find many places elsewhere. Smoked malai chicken, bhagan bhartaa, palak paneer, and khichdi risotto were all delicious. Paan ice cream was a delicious dessert. Would recommend this place.
Came by on a busy Saturday night. No reservations were available, but luckily they take walk-ins on a first-come, first-serve basis at the bar. The two of us shared several dishes. Everything had familiar Indian flavors but was packaged in creative ways. Highly recommend!

Entering this fine Indian establishment you are greeted at the door by a lovely host who makes you feel like an old friend. The space itself is light and airy. Our server was incredibly funny and knew the food and what to recommend. You will feel very comfortable here. When the place is full it does get a bit loud, but it's not overwhelming. You can still have a conversation.
The Bhoomi Burger is a chargrilled, lightly spiced lamb burger. If you like lamb you will love this burger. Absolutely delicious. It is served with caramelized onions, cabbage and avocado (which adds a nice creamy texture) and Indus's special chimmichutney on the side. Add it or don't. Either way, the burger tastes amazing. I would order it again!
Get some garlic naan to share. Also the creme brulee is delightful.

A wonderful addition to the buzzing HP food scene, Indus serves up well made Indian classics with a modern twist in a cozy space. We came here the night before Thanksgiving, and the place was full. Our waiter, Angel, was the right amount of humorous, friendly and attentive. I had a chicken tikka masala (very tasty!) with basmati rice, my friend tried the lamb burger, and for dessert we had the crème brûlée and the lychee kulfi. In the kulfi dish, the cardamom cakes were served with a rose shaped lychee ice cream - lychee is tricky because it can easily taste like soap (not unlike rose water), but this lychee ice cream was so well balanced in flavour that I just didn’t want it to end (and it was really pretty, too). I highly recommend Indus and for sure will be back (and I will definitely try the Dirty Chai Martini next time!)!
