33 Best Indian Restaurants near Columbia

“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.“

“If you’re in the Laurel or Baltimore, Maryland area, you have to try the Butter Chicken Pizza at Bella Indian & Italian Cuisine. It may sound like an unusual combination, but it is absolutely incredible. The perfect blend of Indian flavors and Italian pizza makes it one of the best and most unique pizzas I’ve ever had.

We placed our order to go, but we loved the atmosphere the moment we walked in to pick it up. The restaurant was warm, inviting, and had a great vibe. We’ll definitely be dining in the next time we’re in the area. Highly recommended!“

“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.“

“Located inside the lotte plaza food court, this is the place to be if you crave true traditional hyderabadi cuisine. Love the goat biriyani, goat Mandi and awesome traditional deserts. Must try the apricot delight.

To top it all, they make amazing Indian flavored cakes that are made to order within hours.

Don’t miss it.“

“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!“

“Excellent Indian food that would tend say has the taste and feel of the authentic dishes. Their Thali platter has been hit for myself and family. A great all rounder if you like to get a tasting of a bunch of dishes at a go. Also a call out for the coriander chicken dish, well marinated and cooked to a tender, flavorful awesomeness. Well worth a visit! Awesome staff!“

“Amazing food, great service, clean and sanitized restaurant“

“Huge if true! Heres a hint:“

“We ordered the briyani and the chicken tikka masala and they both contained an immense amount of flavor and an appropriate level of spice. It came out very hot and fresh and the garlic naan that accompanied it was also of top top quality. This is my go-to favorite Indian spot in the area.“

“We had the Gujrati Thali and it was EXCELLENT. The food was very authentic, and there were many different dishes included. Highly recommend this vegetarian thali! Also, the service was friendly and wonderful.“

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

“I’ve been eating food at this place for a few years. The food always tastes amazing especially if you are looking for South Indian style. One of the only places that will serve Pulao as well as a variety of Biryanis. The staff and owner are also very nice and serve the food with a lot of care“

“We often go this place and eat different items.

Recently, We ordered food for party and food was very good, quality and quantity both were excellent. Everyone enjoyed food and it was more than enough and guests took home delicious food. We recommend to our guest to visit this jalsa to taste more items there“

“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.“

“I order from them at least once a week. My salads are always fresh and delicious and their blue cheese is the bomb! My salad today is the best yet!“

“Recently ordered panini sandwiches (chicken and paneer) for a lunch party and all our guests LOVED them. The bread was nice and thick to hold the tasty and well-cooked paneer /chicken along with salad-like filler material. Great portion size, reasonably priced, and the order was ready on time. Samosas were also very good! Cakes were awesome as well - both black forest and butterscotch. True to their name!“
