15 Best Indian Restaurants near Des Peres

“My girlfriend and I went here for the first time a few months ago and since then we’ve probably gone 40-50 times. One week we went five days in a row because it’s so high quality and flavorful. I do chicken reviews on another platform and this place has scored the highest rating I’ve ever given. 9.7/10 clucks. I’ve been to ≈300 other places specifically for chicken and the chicken tikka kebab from here is the best I’ve ever had. Runners up are Grace Meat + Three, Kimchi Guys, and O! Wing Plus.Anyway - I couldn’t recommend this place enough. It’s a MUST try even if you’re an hour away. Neville or Raj will take care of you and they’re the best in the business.“

“We get take-away from here nearly every month. The Garlic naan are excellent and they heat up well. I really enjoy the masala soda and the plant-based desserts. The inside is covered with murals of things from Bombay. Kachori chat and samosas are must-try.“

“Our first time in. Excellent food and service! The only negative is the tables are way too close together. We had a party of 4 and was seated in a booth it was a very tight space for all of us, was extremely uncomfortable. We will be back but will for sure request a table, not a booth.“

The mocktails were okay,they tasted like Juice.We had the Virgin Pina Colada which tasted just like pineapple juice,we also tried papaya blueberry drink(mocktail) and tasted like it's from a can.The alcoholic beverages section was huge,it's seems like worth the shot. I'll definitely be coming back for the food and alcoholic beverages! The ambiance was so nice! The service was great!“

“Nice dining and there will be offers throughout the week. We love to go for a Lunch buffet here and of course for weekend dinners too. The lunch buffet has plenty of south Indian food options especially Andhra food styles like different flavors of biryani. Good place to go with kids.“

“Very good food and attentive service. Dislikes: Menu looked like it had been handled by 100 people. Front entry door glass badly needed to be cleaned. A bit more attention to the appearance of cleanliness would make this place even more appealing.“

“Pretty solid. Was our first time having Indian, so this was a new experience. We got the dinner for 2, the soup was super good! The chicken tikka masala and the lamb curry was nice, though my lamb had a super crunchy bit that I couldn’t tell what it was. Not as spicy as I was hoping for but I was happy. The rice pudding they gave wasn’t very good, had a muted taste. The bread was excellent. Service was okay, the servers weren’t very chatty and we had like 4 different people checking in. Kind of an awkward experience. Would definitely get carry out or go again!“

“I got Onion Kulcha, Paneer Tikka Masala and Gulab Jamun for dessert. The food was ready to go at the time I specified online with no issue. The food was great and my Paneer Masala came with a generous helping of jasmine rice. I had enough for the next days meal. I'm okay with spice so I got a medium heat. Glad I did because It had a kick but wasnt a challenge to eat which is what I wanted.I do wish the online order specified the serving size for the Naan and Gulab Jamun. There were 2 slices of Naan, 3 Gulab Jamun which are small desserts but tasty. I would have definitely gotten a second naan if I knew they were good! Will definitely come back.“

“I love Indian food. And wow is this place incredible. The lamb vindaloo stood out in particular. Perfectly spiced all around.Food was fresh and hot and we didn't have to wait long even though they were very busy.Also got to try their honey Chai and it was a perfect sweet side. We will definitely be back.“

“This place is a fantastic addition to the Saint Louis community, offering a perfect venue for gatherings of all sizes. Recently, I had the pleasure of organizing an Iftar party there with a group of friends, and it was an unforgettable experience.The food at Biryani House truly stole the show. The Iftar spread was nothing short of amazing, with a delightful array of traditional dishes that satisfied every palate. From aromatic biryani, Chicken Karahi, Chicken tikka, and mouthwatering kheer, each dish was delicious. In addition to the delicious food and spacious setting, the restaurant also provides a separate area for Salah, allowing guests to pray in comfort and serenity.Overall, my experience at Biryani House was outstanding. The combination of delicious food, welcoming ambiance, and attention to detail made it the perfect choice for our Iftar party. I would highly recommend Biryani House to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Saint Louis.“
