47 Best Indian Restaurants near Pikesville

“Every time I get something here I am blown away with how amazing it is! They have the BEST veggie pizza I’ve ever had - lots of veggies yet not soggy at all and full of flavor. Their chicken wings are also some of the best I’ve ever had. Their Indian cuisine is authentic and delicious. I’m often nervous when I see a restaurant with such a large and diverse menu but somehow Arlon’s totally pulls it off and everything is outstanding!“

“Great food, even better 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!“

“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. 🚗🍟“

“So,

I ordered the Lamb Curry. I definitely picked the hottest flavor and I'm definitely impressed. This flavor touched my ancestors. The lamb itself was juicy and tender. And the Garlic naan was perfectly seasoned.

I only gave a 4 star because I think a 20 dollar meal should come with at least 1 slice of naan as a meal. We should not be paying a separate price for something that should go with the meal. Especially when the meal is over 20 dollars. Blasphemy.

But perfect food. And because I Did call ahead to find out about the naan, I was able to speak to someone and they were very pleasant and helpful.“

“🥰 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!“

“Amazing food, great environment, perfect service! Our server, Ali, was attentive and friendly, the food here is absolutely delicious and served generously. We will return!!!“

“The host was so kind and warm-hearted! I came here with my friend and the energy was incredible. We were just walking around and happened to stumble upon the restaurant and were greeted by everyone. On Sundays, they have buffets and if you go please try the chili chicken. So so so good!! Had a great time and will be coming again <3 - Olanna N.“

“This was my first experience dining at Harbor Tandoor and I will definitely be back. Amazing food and even better service! Our server, Hikmat, was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. The food was well seasoned and even the veggies were excellent. If you're ever in Inner Harbor, check this place out!“

“I recently visited Biryani and Bakers and I was thoroughly impressed by both the variety and quality of the food. The staff is very warm and welcoming. This restaurant offers an extensive menu that caters to all tastes. However, what truly stole the show was their chicken biryani – it was absolutely delicious! Guthivankaya biryani is also amazing! The portions were generous, and the accompanying raita complemented the dish perfectly.
I must say this is the best biryani I ever had in Maryland!!“

“The food here is amazing! We travel a lot and have visited many Indian cuisine restaurants. Cafe spice is by far the best! 5 stars!“

“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.“

“This takeout-only restaurant sits at the back of an unassuming convenience store—I definitely would never have discovered it if not for Maps. Despite the setting, though, the food here is wonderful—everything is home cooked to order, with rich spices and brought out boiling hot. And did I mention cheap??? You get so much food, and a more than generous discount if you pay cash.

Like the other reviews, I would recommend calling ahead by 20-30 minutes to order, and then carry out to your preferred eating location! But it’s well worth a visit :)“

“THANK YOU LUNCH WAS EXCELLENT TODAY THIS WAS OUR THIRD TIME COMING“

“Sister invited me to try Indian food and brought me here to Taj Palace for lunch. I tried everything in their buffet. I was pleasantly surprised that I loved everything! I assumed that Indian food had a lot of curry but this was perfect! Delicious! I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“Had an amazing time at Sangam Indian Cuisine Ellicott City with family and friends! The food was incredible - that Thalapakattu Goat Biryani, Paneer Pepper Fry, and Green Chilli Chicken were absolute winners! Felt so happy and content after a long time.“

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

“Best Indian restaurant and service !!“

“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!“

“We loved our experience at Verandah Kitchen. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish packed with flavor and beautifully presented. We ordered a variety of small plates, and each one was a hit. The vibe was perfect—great music, welcoming ambiance, and a space that felt both lively and comfortable.

The service was top-notch from start to finish. Warm, attentive, and thoughtful. We even had the chance to meet the owner, who was incredibly kind and engaging—it’s clear this place is run with a lot of heart.

We’re already planning our next visit and have a growing list of dishes we’re excited to try. Highly recommend Verandah Kitchen for anyone looking for memorable food and a standout dining experience!“

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

“The perfect kind of Indian food for those trying it for the first time! The taste is mild yet flavorful, making it suitable for all age groups. We tried their methi mutter malai, and it was delicious. Really appreciated the complimentary rice served with any gravy — a thoughtful touch!“

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

“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.“

“They come to our neighborhood for food truck night and my daughter and I just love their chicken tikki masala, naan bread, and mango lassie. We visit their truck whenever we can. Great food.“

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

“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 outstanding. I eat it at least 3-4 a week. My favorite is chicken madras, it is like nothing I have ever eaten before. The savory spices make my mouth water just thinking about it. The chicken is tender, and I can’t seem to get enough. I eat the whole portion by myself. I highly recommend this restaurant and I forgot to mention the service is outstanding. It is worth the money I spend to eat there.“

“This is not a dine-in place, but IS a hidden gem in Pikesville. It's hidden at the button of an apartment complex. As they're Nepalese, they offer some dishes that are not on all Indian menus.

Their delivery is also quick. I tried this place on a whim, and they did not disappoint.

I haven't had any of their American, Chinese, or other fare, however.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not really. Maybe if you live there.“

“The food was AMAZING. I will be going back SOON. The guy who waited on us was so polite and friendly.“

“What an excellent place ! We had lunch for four . The people there were wonderful and our food was amazing . We shared four different dishes and sides , it just kept getting better“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Excellent South Indian food“

“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!“

“Finally found my go to dining spot in Towson: Kathmandu did not disappoint. Manoj, owner's nephew, provided excellent service. Everything I ordered was pretty delish: veggie pakora, chicken soup and chicken gorkhali. Particularly loved the flavoring and spices of gorkhali, and sliced ginger pieces make each bite that much nicer. This will be a repeat dining spot for my Towson business stays. Highly recommend this place to anyone that likes Nepalese and Indian cuisine as many of their dishes are a crossover from Indian food.“

“This is a “hole in the wall” location with excellent and very traditional Indian food. We saw many people picking up large platters to take home, so next time we have folks over for Indian, this is the place! We ate inside the very comfortable small area and so enjoyed everything we tried. The service was excellent and the menu extensive. This will be one of our regular places for Indian food! The owner is planning to offer a buffet soon which we will frequent.“

“Absolutely delish! Just go! I have only stopped in for carryout for samosa a few month back. They were delicious. Finally got back to have dinner. Saag chicken, lamb curry, chili chicken momos...fantastic! Our server, Ms. Janet, was so sweet & attentive. We will be back soon!“

“Reasonable price and friendly staff!! Tasty mutton Briyani and crispy lollipop chicken!!“

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

“Location is a bit secluded, but this place is definitely a goldmine. The inventory is so large, you'll definitely be able to find WHATEVER you're looking for and more here. I personally came in for wine coolerd and left with two bottles of wine that I tried from a sampler (Espanola).“

“My # 1 place to eat in Baltimore city. If you haven't stopped pass for the Crab � soup please do. My absolute favorite is the Burger salad. But you have choices lots and lots of choices. Check em out.“

“Amazing food. Great service! Would love to come here again when visiting our daughter in Baltimore :)“
