50 Best Indian Restaurants near Arbutus

“I always order delivery from Halal Kabab & Wings when I’m craving comfort food. The food arrives hot, fresh, and fast! My go-to is the chicken wrap with fries — 10/10 every time. Super convenient and totally worth it. 🚗🍟“

“Delicious Pakistani dishes! Friendly service and generous portions. Overall a fantastic place for Pakistan cuisine. Highly recommended!“

“I usually don’t eat Indian food, too spicy, but the ambassador makes the food just perfect for my taste. Special occasions when the mood is right, we go to the ambassador for that special taste of Indian cuisine. I’ve been going to the ambassador for the last 20 years. Today I drove 28 miles from home just to enjoy dinner at this great restaurant. Thank you for the good food and good service.“

“Omg there is another location closer to my home. Awww shux. There is one near work and now I find one mear home. I love the food and family atmosphere of this restaurant. Hands up a family and work favorite. See you soon...“

“We went to Indigma this evening for restaurant week. The food was fantastic and my nine-year-old loved everything! She gave it a 1523/10 rating! Though everything was excellent, the creme brulee was the best I've ever had. Thank you for a fantastic meal!“

“Royal Taj is our go-to restaurant for special occasions, like our 20th Wedding Anniversary last week. It never fails to deliver excellence. Because it was a very special dinner, we decided to try something different. So my wife ordered the Lobster Malabar and I ordered the Grilled Halibut. Both were very good, especially the Halibut which was covered in an outstanding Corn Relish. To top off the evening our excellent server, Joshi, brought us a slice of very tasty cheesecake with a lit candle on top. As usual we cannot rave loud and often enough about Royal Taj and it is all due to the GM Binda, who is very friendly, charismatic and truly sets the tone of excellence at Royal Taj.“

“I really enjoyed the food I had, starting with the vegetable samosa, and for my meal, I had the lamb shahi korma. I took an order of the butter chicken home with me. I also had the butter naan and a mango lassi with my meal. I really enjoy Indian food and this location is very convenient and close to my home. I will definitely come here again and will have their lunch buffet.“

“Butter chicken and chicken Tikki masala and garlic naan all exceptional“

“🥰 MR. AMIR and his family are absolutely lovely people. This is a family run business in the heart of Baltimore social life, between Inner Harbor, Harbor East and Fells Point (more to Fells Point side). It is our favorite Indian restaurant in Baltimore by far. My husband and I really enjoy their lunch buffets, they service freshly made food and have a variety of options. The lunch buffet has Indian salads, sometimes vegetable samosas, at least a few different meat entrees, at least a few different vegetable entrees, dessert, and always hot chai tea with sugar options. My husband and I enjoy going to not only eat the food, but also appreciate how friendly and hospitable Amir and his family are. They also have respectful staff, and run a very peaceful operation. We appreciate every visit, and when we leave, we feel like we have gained 5 pounds each (in a good way!). Looking forward to our next visit :) Thank you Mr. Amir and family!“

“This was the 1st time I've had Indian cuisine. It was a wonderful experience. Our server explained everything to us about the menu and some traditions. He pointed us in the direction and what to eat. He was the best.Our food was fantastic all of it. I wish I could post the food because I can't remember all the names. We got a kale dish, Omg It was so darn good. We will definitely be back. 3 amigos“

“Amazing Indian food!! I'm from Toronto, where there is a lot of good Indian food, and this is still among the best I've had anywhere. I highly recommend the lamb saag and shahi paneer. With the cash discount, the portions are extremely good value for the money.“

“Have you ever had a meal that changed what you thought food could do for you? I had one tonight. The food here was outstanding. You could taste the complexity of flavors in each bite. Get the Chicken Biryani. It will be your go-to dish after you tase it. Amazing food. Well done.“

“Been here twice, once was years ago pre-pandemic and it was fabulous. We said we should come back here more often but never did… then the pandemic messed everything up and we went travel nursing. Now we’re back in town again… AND ITS STILL AMAZING. I got a jalfrezi, and hubby got tikka masala. The medium felt like a true medium, not whitewashed. Service was lovely. We were one of two couples who dined in, but looks like they have a busy takeout business. So glad they didn’t disappear in the pandemic like so many other places! Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Lovely vibe, lovely staff, great selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes! My bhuteko kauli was soo good, very full and saucy and spicy, how I asked! The onion naan was crispy and deliciously spiced. Highly recommend this spot for people looking for something delicious and vegetarian!“

“Best vindaloo I’ve ever had“

“Yaar Spice has the best sauces I've ever eaten. The menu is vast and everything is remarkable. I try to visit weekly .“

“love their butter chicken and tandoori chicken. Everything was so good. def. coming back!“

“Verandah Kitchen is easily one of my favorite spots and a place I find myself coming back to often. The food has amazing flavor with just the perfect amount of spice—every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and consistently delicious. I am gluten free- there are many options for me!

The restaurant itself is quaint, clean, and welcoming, with both indoor and outdoor seating options that create a very nice, relaxed vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can truly unwind and enjoy your meal.

What really stands out is the service. The staff is always incredibly kind, and the owner is regularly present, making sure everything is running perfectly and that guests are well taken care of.

Some of my absolute favorite dishes are the prawns ghee roast, chicken rista, chicken malai kabab, and the shrimp taco on a corn tortilla—highly recommend trying them if you visit.

Overall, Verandah Kitchen is a gem that I frequent often and would gladly recommend to anyone looking for great food and a chill atmosphere.“

“Been going to Sweet 27 for probably 12 years. My grandson is 6, this is his favorite spot. Friendly staff and great food.“

“Here's to the highest stars available (20), and then some. Today, I introduced my son to Mango Lassie, Chicken Tika Masala, Nan. He was hesitant to come at first and now he is so impressed with the food and service. Thanks so much. I hope your restaurant grows and grows.“

“By far the best food and service in Baltimore! I always come in for the lunch buffet and the food is DELICIOUS! A lot of options and sometimes there is this special desert that is this doughnut drizzled with honey(?) which I love, and always have it with the complimentary Nepalese milk tea. Great options for vegetarians too.“

“Best Indian restaurant and service !!“

“Absolutely true to its name. House of India is the place to be if you appreciate authentic Indian cuisine and excellent service. It’s not only having a dinner , it’s having a memorable experience. Loved everything about it. The food is exceptionally great, the service is outstanding. The owners under new management goes above and beyond to make every guests feel welcome. Highly recommend this place.“

“These guys make very good food, and they are very eager to please. They have two menus, one with American food like pizza and burgers and fried chicken, and the other with Indian food. Personally I like their non-curry dishes. It is quite spicy and never bland. Tonight I had the chicken thigh dinner which was very soft and spicy. It was fantastic. They also seemed to have invested a good amount of money into this place. Nice quality interior and good parking outside. The owner and the hostess both came to the table personally and asked us about how the food tastes. These people really care.“

“I stopped going here about 3 years ago but my refrigerator stopped working. I decided to give them another try. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the cheesesteak sub was. I realized there new owners with a large menu cant wait to try some new items.“

“This is the best Indian restaurant ever! The service and the food are perfect. The tandoori chicken is delectable. I highly recommend this restaurant and I will definitely be going back!“

“My girlfriend and I got Chicken Saag and Butter Chicken with Naan. Amazing food for a very reasonable price and awesome customer service. Out of all the Indian restaurants nearby the quality is by far the best. I am definitely going back 💯.“

“Variety of food, good service.“

“Fairly new to visiting the restaurant however the four (4) times I have dined or had carryout, the staff was welcoming, pleasant, the food was delicious (sidebar: I recommend the cream of crab soup), and the atmosphere was relaxing. My high school class reunion committee even planned our meeting there and was able to plan professionally without a lot of interruptions and A-1 service. I would recommend and do not have any bad reviews! Continue being a staple in the community.“

“While this won’t stop us from ordering their delicious food again, tonight’s experience just wasn’t the same. I ordered the family package with vegetarian Biryani, which included raita, salan, plain rice, naam, and chicken curry. We got our order and it was missing the salan. I called the restaurant and got the weirdest explanation. “It’s a very small container. They make a large container and if it runs out. But it’s just a small container of peanut sauce.” I don’t care what the size of the container is, it’s advertised as a package and I expect everything in the order.“

“We were heading to NJ from RVA, decided to make a quick stop for some Haleem and Chicken 65 along with Goat Biryani everything was top notch exactly how it should be from an authentic Hyderabadi place.
While returning back we ordered the same items along with Apricot delight and Dilkush everything was phenomenal.
Unfortunately don’t have any photos since we were too busy eating 😂
Huge shoutout to the cashier for the complimentary Apricot delight and Irani chai“

“Awesome food. Great service!“

“Delicious food, and outstanding service!“

“Great food and people love them“

“Authentic food and great customer service 👍 Highly recommended 👌“

“Went for the lunch buffet and had a lovely time! The corn saag was probably my favorite item. Since I went on a weekday there wasn’t too much traffic. I appreciated the attentiveness and how kind of staff were. The lunch buffet had a decent amount of options for vegetarians and other eaters. I don’t know if the items rotate so I can’t say anything for that, but I imagine they would. Thank you for giving me such a good dining experience, I will be back!“

“I had an issue with my order from GrubHub that unfortunately led to me not receiving it but the manager called me two days later to let me know he was out for a couple days and was so sorry to hear about my troubles. He immediately offered to fix it and sent me the food I had been waiting on free of charge. He really made me feel better about the situation and like he cared. I have never had someone show me that level of concern for my issue. All my friends recommend this place, and I am happy to say that I do as well.“

“I recently visited this restaurant and had a really nice experience overall. The food tasted fresh and authentic, with rich flavors and good portion sizes. I especially liked the biryani and paneer dishes — they were well-cooked and nicely spiced.

The service was warm and welcoming. The staff were polite and attentive, and the food was served on time without long waiting. They also helped with recommendations, which made the experience better.

Overall, it’s a great spot for Indian food, and I’d definitely recommend it.“

“I went in there yesterday (Sunday afternoon) and was pretty much the only person in the place. Service was basic/adequate ... but quick! Flavor was great, portion size was sufficient for lunch today, too! Good value. I'll be back!“

“The food is so good here.“

“Great food, helpful staff, and a clean dinning environment. They also have a very good lunch buffet and do delivery and takeout as we'll.“

“Good“

“We dined here for their lunch buffet and the food was amazing and extremely fresh. Everything was really tasty and a great value. Highly recommend!“

“BBQ tonite has the best Goat in Baltimore, and it has become our favorite Pakistani restaurant.“

“The food is always top notch. Friendly and inviting atmosphere.“

“Their catering services were truly impressive — the food was high quality, flavorful, and very well prepared. We requested a few items that were not on the menu, and they accommodated them without any hesitation. Another thing we really appreciated was their willingness to cater for a small gathering of about 10 people, especially since many other caterers we approached would not accept orders for fewer than 25 people. They handled everything professionally and with great care. Overall, an excellent experience and wonderful service.“

“Love it very authentic best I’ve had in the US“

“I ordered delivery from here last night and it was the BOMB. The driver was super quick and very sweet, gave her an extra 5 for making sure my food was hot since other places are always warm. I WILL be ordering again. I never had better goat curry! 🙌🏾🙌🏾“
