19 Best Indian Restaurants near Plymouth

“Eating at Chennai Express is the closest you’ll feel to being in Tamil Nadu in Southeast Michigan.I’ve eaten at Chennai Express a couple of times now, and it’s always been an excellent experience overall — great food, great service, and to top it off, it feels like home. They’ve got a solid menu of options, including all of your favorite South Indian dishes as well as a few other non- standard options. I love the Mysore Masala Dosa here, but their curries and Biriyanis are excellent too.The interior is pretty simple and straightforward, but there’s something to be said for a no-nonsense approach to good food. Santhosh is always really nice — helpful with the menu for those who are less familiar, and especially makes you feel like you’re back in India if you speak Tamil!Pro Tip: they have a weekend special menu that’s only available on Sundays! It’s featured lots of authentic and rare dishes in the past, so I’d recommend checking it out on Instagram to see what they’ll be offering for the coming Sunday!Overall, definitely check out Chennai Express if you’re looking for good South Indian food anywhere remotely near Plymouth, MI!“

“I went to Pakwaan for lunch today and was happy to see they had a lunch buffet. I love being able to graze across a range of Indian dishes, and the buffet allowed me to do just that. There was a wide assortment available with all of my favorites included (tandoori chicken, butter chicken, naan, paneer masala, and much more). The spicy noodles were amazing with just enough flavorful heat to light up your taste buds but not so much that you're in pain. There was even a delicious mango dessert.The price was what you'd pay anywhere in Plymouth for lunch, if not a little less, and the assorment was amazing. We were seated quickly, hit the buffet, and were easily back to work on time. If you enjoy the variety offered by a fresh Indian buffet, definitely check them out for lunch. If you have something particular in mind, check out their menu. Highly recommended!“

“I highly recommend this place. You can smell the rich blend of spices from a few doors down. The service is quick, staff is friendly, and my lamb saag melted me to my seat with the first bite. Thank you for a wonderful experience!“

“The staff was great. My sister and I loved everything that we ordered. The hummus was perfect with the bread it is served with. We got a couple strawberry smoothies that were so fresh. The meal was so fresh with quality ingredients. My sister and I are still talking about our meals days later. The garlic sauce paired great with our meals. My sister got the cubes beef kabobs and I got fahsah chicken. They also have a kid friendly menu we got my niece chicken nuggets and fries. Will definitely be returning.Parking: Plenty of free parking around the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Kid menu is clear on the first inside panel of the menu.“

“Just tried out this place. We were in a large group that ordered several types of chai and different food items, and everything was wow! Hands down, best chai I've had in Michigan. I especially liked the Karak Chai and Amore Chai, but all of the different chai varieties at the table were amazing. My family is South Asian so I grew up as a bit of a chai snob, but this place thoroughly impressed me. Their homemade paratha wraps and sandwiches were super yummy. Seating was ample, both indoors and outdoors, and the whole restaurant had a vibrant and chic vibe. Place was very clean. This is a family owned restaurant and the thing I thought was especially stand-out was that several of the family-members were there even though we went really late on a Sunday. Owners stopped by several times to make sure our group was happy. If your only experience with chai is at Starbucks or Biggby, I really recommend taking in Cups N Chai's extremely welcoming environment with your family or friends while broadening your horizons with one of their wonderful pots of chai.“

“What a fantastic meal!! I mean top-notch! From the delicious tandoori wings to each and every slice of pizza ordered, my family and I were pleased. I honestly loved the food. The service was quick and accurate, so there were no complaints there. The staff were super nice and very welcoming. I was only in the parlor for a hot second, but it was nicely laid out for a small space and very inviting.A little on the food: We started off with Tandoori wings (5pc) and veggie puffs for an appetizer. Both were excellent. The wings had that great tandoori flavor and were cooked excellently. As for the veggies puffs, we loved them. That said, I wish that the parlor offered a mint or tamarind side sauce. Please consider it! ? Still, they were great without.As for the pizzas, we ordered three different kinds, and all were amazing. I can't tell you if one stood out over the others, as all of them brought something to the meal. Whether it was the spiciness of the stage chicken, the zing of the chili paneer, or the subtleties of the vegetarian korma, we enjoyed them all. I, for one, cannot wait to order again.Will be back and have already recommended it to others at work.Think about a side mint or brown sauce!Vegetarian options: Tons of options. Vegan too.Parking: Plenty of parking. It is located inside a strip mall.“

“Amazing food! You have to try the Paneer 65.“

“I am a regular at this place to say the least for last 9 years, so I have seen the place transition from a compact 15 table seating to the what it is currently.All vegetarian restaurant and excellent tasting food. You would like each and every item on their menu. All the chaat items are really good. I would definitely recommend to try it if you're fan of chaats. Dahi puri is my go to. Bhature have become less oil over the years but taste of chole has gone down. Pav bhaji is nice and so is puri bhaji. I am not a fan of sambar here, even if I get dosa, I stick to masala dosa and eating chutney and bhaji. Dabeli is also a good option. Mango lassi and Faluda are great but very sweet, if you’re on diet, skip it.As of 2024, they have launched lunch combos which is a great business idea and so is for customer. You can try a meal and chat item for $15 with some dish restrictions.Wait time is usually around 30-45 minutes on late busy Saturday evening, other than that day it's pretty manageable. Service staff is very friendly and even in busy times they’ll make sure you have a good experience.Abundant parking available. Place is clean and has sufficient seating.“

“My boyfriend and I love coming to this place to eat it's super clean the staff is always so friendly, and the food is more than amazing!!!! The Pepper Chicken Fry is so delicious, and their Hyderabadi Goat Curry is our absolute favorite. This is one dish I highly recommend anyone to try if you haven't yet!!!“

“Came here after a long night with a few friends. We were trying to find a place that is open and came here. Their food was amazing. We got butter chicken with medium spice. The spice had a build up, but it was good. It was seasoned well. I also got the veggie samosa. They were so good, and probably my favorite. They gave us an abundance of rice for the butter chicken which was nice. They gave us complimentary drinks and dessert as well. We got garlic naan and it was delicious. The service was so friendly and welcoming. Good place to go to especially at late night!!“

“Best panner and chicken wrap Delicious chicken dum biryani Great experience“

“The food was amazing! The staff was kind and quick to deliver food. There were so many dessert options! Everything was delicious!“

“Overall the food is pretty darn good. The sizes are small for the price, but the taste supercedes that. I think their sizes are more of a lunch portion. The portion leaves you wanting for more if this is your dinner. When they first moved over to Laurel Park Place we kept getting told they would open by a certain date that actually was months later. We found other Indian restaurants to satisfy our palate until they finally opened. They opened with very few items on their menu, and VERY limited hours. They have added a few more items, but nothing compared to their menu when they were in the gas station off of Haggerty Road. We have missed their Malai Kofta, and Chicken Tikka, amongst a few items. A lot of their sauces taste like the same basic sauce with maybe a basic addition of a different spice or two added to the specific dish. We noticed that they stopped filling their carry-containers as full as well. If they are going to make it in this area they need to give you enough to fill your container properly, possibly offer two sizes... a lunch or dinner. I am not talking about the lunch bowls they now have, but the individual white carry out containers. Their hours are only Thurs.-Sun. which really limits when you want to fill your tummy. The owners are nice. The Mrs. Is a very warm and chatty woman, but she is never there anymore. It would help if they did an advertising blitz in Livonia, Farmington Hills, and Northville. The taste of their food is truly top tier. Probably in the top 5 Indian restaurants in the surrounding area. This is a compliment to the highest degree considering the amount of Indian cuisine in the area. There are lots. Bring back the Malai Kofta and the Chicken Tikka.“

“Ordered half tray biryani for pick up, and I must say, the taste was on point. The quality of the ingredients was evident, contributing to the richness and depth of the dish. The spices were perfectly balanced, adding complexity without overwhelming the palate. However, the aftermath wasn't as pleasant - dealt with some heartburn later on.On the upside, the place was spotless, and the service was quick and efficient. The efficiency of the service was commendable, with my pick-up order prepared and ready right on time.Overall, A decent spot for a flavorful meal, but watch out for the heartburn. Just be mindful of potential digestive issues, and you're in for a truly memorable dining experience.“

“My husband and I went here tonight and got take out. The woman who took our order was kind and helpful. I ordered aloo mutter and paratha. He had mutter paneer. We loved it! I would definitely go back and highly recommend it!“

“We go every single weekend for their lunch buffet. It is absolutely excellent! Tons of choices and the menu changes every week.“

“Was here for breakfast buffet on SaturdayJust made my taste buds happyThe best South Indian bf around novi and farmingtonThey had idli,uttappa,mysore bonda,medhu vada,poori and pongalAll good and at a fair price.Definitely my weekend getaway now.“

“Sharing my food experiences is part of what I do, and this was an amazing experience. Not only is the team sweet, helpful and kind, the food is delicious! I love the look of the cafe as well. I could chill here any day. The samosas are soooo tasty, tried an onion one and it blew my mind. Gift of India is true to its name and a total gift to my tastebuds!“

“It was very yummy! We’ll be coming back to try the buffet!“
