16 Best Indian Restaurants in Halifax

“We had an awesome lip smacking dinner today. Authentic desi Chinese main course and great tandoori for appetizers. The masala fries was a sweet surprise which is a first time for us in halifax restaurant menu. Hope you keep serving great food like this thanks“

“If you're craving authentic Indian flavors, The Adda Indian Eatery is a delightful spot that doesn’t disappoint. We tried their chole bhature and a cup of chai, and both were a hit. The chole was rich, well-spiced, and perfectly balanced—not overly oily, which is often the case elsewhere. The bhature came out hot and fluffy, with just the right amount of crisp on the outside and softness inside. It’s the kind of comfort food that makes you feel right at home. To top it off, their **tea** was just as impressive—brewed strong with aromatic spices, slightly sweet, and served piping hot. It paired beautifully with the meal and rounded off the experience nicely. The ambiance was cozy with a casual, homely vibe, and the staff were friendly and attentive. If you're in the mood for a hearty, flavorful Indian meal, The Adda is definitely worth a visit. 👍👍❤️❤️❤️“

“I wish I had a picture of the milkshake I ordered. It was literally the best milkshake I’ve ever had, and I’m over 40 years old so that means something. I’ll be going back, maybe just before I see a movie. 👏“

“Nice clean cosy feeling restaurant with friendly attentive staff. Dosa, curry, rice and naan were carefully presented and very tasty, mango lassi was especially tasty. Highly recommend.“

“Absolutely excellent!! Lovely staff and a lovely owner as well. It's not very attractive inside, so I would hesitate to bring friends - because atmosphere matters to me...“

“An early reservation at 5 pm on Friday 28 November 2025 was my second dining experience at Besharam. It provided a wonderful opportunity to introduce the restaurant to a close friend (and former Haligonian) visiting from Alexandria, Ontario. Everything was perfect: comfortable seating, a menu with lots of vegetarian options, timeliness, delicious food, my mocktail, conversation with our knowledgeable server, and the price value of our food. Did I mention five takeaway containers? We were happy to support a local eatery before a concert at the Dalhousie Arts Centre. I know I will be using my coupon. Thank you so much.“

“Very tasty food at the best prices! You won’t find this level of flavor for such a good price anywhere else. I’ve tried almost everything on the menu and it’s all excellent, but their butter chicken is beyond amazing — truly the best in HRM.“

“Absolutely Outstanding!
Manver MJ Rasa is truly a hidden gem in Halifax. The food is bursting with authentic flavours — every dish tastes freshly made and perfectly balanced. The service is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making you feel right at home. The ambiance is cozy yet lively, perfect for both casual meals and special occasions.“

“Best Restaurant in town !!!!! We had our Team dinner and booked the hall and food with Bombay Bistro, they really took care of everything. The Ambience was very beautiful. The food was Hot and very fresh. The food was very authentic and we loved the taste very much. The service was excellent. The desserts were made fresh and brought straight out of kitchen. In Specific their Aloo Tikki was out of the world. The whole team is Very Professional. Keep up the Great work Guys.“

“I recently dined at famous curry Garden and enjoyed a delightful experience. The new Indo Chinese additions were a hit, with dishes like Bombay BHEL and Manchurian Fried Rice impressing us with their flavorful fusion. The Papdi aloo Chat retained its amazing taste, although the chutney had a new twist. The only disappointment was the Bombay Style Pav Bhaji, which fell a bit flat in comparison. The service was excellent, and despite a minor miss, famous Curry Garden remains a place to explore inventive flavors.“

“Great food“

Chicken 65 is the most famous and perfect dish for all nationalities The best thing is they costumiz according to your taste and is always perfect.The staff is extremely polite specifically Judi . Whenever we visit there she remembers all the customers and provides exceptional customer service,makes us feel special!“

“Uniquely fantastic South Asian food! I've been eating here for years, at the Seaport Market, catering meals from them for family and colleagues, and eating the frozen dinners that I can buy from Noggin's in town. This food really puts time and care into flavours and healthiness. Excellent chutneys, outstanding sauces. I recommend when you stop by, just ask Jaskirat or Shelly what they recommend today and eat whatever they suggest - you'll never be disappointed! Of late I've been loving the vegan mixed vegetable curry - so flavourful!“
