25 Best Indian Restaurants near Carmel

“Delicious food! I have ordered many times and everything is very good.“

“I have tried iced tea multiple times in my life. I've never liked it. Then the proprietor at Fresh Indian Grill insisted that their homemade, original recipe iced tea was going to flip me. Challenge accepted. AND HE WAS RIGHT. This is the only iced tea I've ever enjoyed in my lifetime. And I do definitely enjoy it. It's a fantastic complement to an already affordable, tasty meal. They are also kindly cognizant of the need to accommodate my multiple food intolerances. I am fortunate to have them near to my neighborhood, since they offer such satisfying food with a clear desire to please. However I struggle to limit myself to just once a week, because they're so convenient--! You will undoubtedly enjoy it as well.“

“Amber Indian is incredible!“

“My first visit, but was very impressed with service, cleanliness, and especially the food. I lived in London for 11 years so got to eat plenty of good and authentic Indian food. The lamb karahi I had scored highly on both counts. I will be back - repeatedly - to try many of the other very tasty looking menu items. Best Indian I’ve found so far in Indy.“

“The food is excellent, and the service very friendly and welcoming. Yummy comfort food on a cold dreary winter afternoon!“

“fantastic food, very fresh halal/Indian/Mediterranean food. Family run Business, give them a chance and you'll be thrilled you did.“

“5/5 stars. No notes.

But in all seriousness, there is some really wonderful Indian food here that has helped through several days where I was too weary to do anything except focus on my studies. I’ve only ordered through Uber, so I’ve never been inside the restaurant, but everything I’ve ordered has been delicious. My personal favorite thing is to order their dal makhani (a black lentil and red kidney dish with earthy spices and a creamy sauce), their naan, and a lassi, either the sweet one or the mango one. As a college student, I really appreciate their affordability and their large portions of food. I will say though, keep the spice level of a dish low at first. Their food can get very spicy very quickly. Anything above medium heat is too much for me, personally. But everyone has their own spice tolerances. I’d just recommend having a lassi or a yogurt sauce with your food to balance it out.“

“We ate here last night and it was exceptional! We went with a native of India who has been eating here often because he loves the food. They have authentic and Americanized and American food options. There are MANY gluten-free options! In fact there are more Gluten-free options than most restaurants. We loved the mild and extra spicey options that we tried. The place was clean and nicely decorated. The staff was friendly. We really enjoyed the experience. I would highly recommend and we will be back!“

“My absolute favorite! Excellent staff, top quality food, and a lunch buffet from heaven!“

“I love this place! If I lived close id eat there every single day. The food was amazing. The service was quick. The employees were very kind.

I feel that the spot gets overlooked unfortunately. I hope everyone starts to really support them! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT“

“One of the most authentic and clean Indian food is served here. Love their indo Chinese which are not too much soy sauce. Great service too!“

“Food was delicious and had great service“

“The food is delicious. The service is wonderful. The atmosphere is fantastic. My family and I enjoyed the best Indian cuisine we have ever had at Punjabi Tadka. We will definitely be back and suggest everyone try it out.“

“Had such a great Halwa Poori experience at Kolachi Grill Bella Vista. Used to travel 45 minutes to go to Pennant hills one, having another one so close to home is a blessing. The poori’s were so fresh, halwa was so yummy while Channa’s were extremely delicious. The staff was so cordial, even served free chips for the kids. Must recommendations who love eating desi food or Halwa Poori over the weekends.“

“This is a great Pakistani restaurant.Not a fancy place.It is attached to a small grocery and does a lot of sales for halal meat and catering.The restaurant is through the grocery shop.Because of the Pandemic I had a takeout of Kebabs,Palak paneer,garlic naan and the world beating vegetable biriyani!! The biriyani is made of the best basmati rice and mixed to perfection with saffron and white rice.You can taste the curry leaf,peppery cloves and sweet and sour tamarind.Order a la carte and this dish will blow you away!Little pricy but large portions.“

“Stopped by for dinner and the food was amazing. Had the Chicken kabobs on a bed of basmati rice topped with bell peppers and onions. The food was cooked fresh and of the highest quality ingredients. Would recommend this to anyone looking for something great. Best meal I've had at a restaurant in a very long time.“

“Tried the Kathiyawadi Thali at Honest Indianapolis and really enjoyed it. The food was very tasty, fresh, and flavorful. From my experience, the taste felt authentic and very close to traditional Kathiyawadi food.

Would definitely recommend and order it again! 😋“

“Everything we ate here was fantastic! We had onion rava dosa, dynamite chicken, and shrimp mandi, and it was all really flavorful. Dosa was nice and crispy and came with chutney and sambar. The dynamite chicken was a great appetizer in a delicious sauce. The mandi was great. It wasn't on the main menu, so you might need to ask for it. Staff was nice and helpful also. Best Indian restaurant we've been to in Indy so far.“

“Good food n Good quantity“

“My pickup order was delicious and I’ll definitely order again in the future! Friendly staff and efficient preparation of food. Thanks for the wonderful dinner!“

“Just ate here, the food and service were both amazing!!!“

“My family visits this place on a weekly basis. The quality and taste gets better by the day. It is really awesome. I specially love their mirchi bajji and daal kachori. All of the chaats are really amazing. The portion sizes are huge. We typically end up sharing it among our family members as we cannot finish it all in one sitting. Value for money. I am very particular about ingredients being fresh and they have met my "quality check" criteria. Thank you for reading my review on Hari food :-)“

“Got the paneer tikka masala and it was delicious. Very rich and buttery flavor. Ordered it medium spicy. Could have used a bit more spice but still tasty. It came with rice and naan and was reasonably priced! Also ordered the mango lassi and Gulab jamun. Mango lassi was a too sugary and not as thick as I would like but overall, not bad. Will definitely be coming back for the masala and naan!“

“It's been Apna Bazaar for a while now.

Bombay Bazaar is a great fresh chicken deli place for me. Been here a few times for fresh, custom cut chicken. I highly recommend you call and place your order on your way and it'll be ready by the time you get there. The service is prompt.

Would recommend it for the deli.“

“Stopped at Chapati on our roadtrip and it was totally worth it. Amazing, delicious food!“
