14 Best Indian Restaurants in Cleveland

“Finally stopped into Amba! An acquaintance and I dropped in for an impromptu dinner on a Friday night, and I was excited to finally see it as I’d been hearing so many great things about it. They’ve definitely got the towns attention! When I came in I was really impressed by the overall ambiance and it has this beautifully dark, sculptural quality. I was surprised by how drawn into the decor and visual aesthetic of the space. And if you’re someone who feels you like that feeling of cozy and privacy when out enjoying a meal- it is perfect for you. My friend and I enjoyed a combination of both the cocktails and mocktails, I had the spiced nectar and blue bergamot. SO good. So different than the typical mocktail- not your typical mixer combo. But really unique recipes created with a lot of depth. Just as much to be enjoyed as the plates themselves. We had somewhere around 7-8 dishes and I came in as someone who loves Indian food expecting a typical experience and was given more than a meal, but a really fun and innovate experience. Bright visual aesthetics and flavors created a very exciting and delicious experience! (Plenty of vegan options as well.)“

“Royal taste of Bengal : Nestled on the west side of Cleveland, a husband/wife duo run this charming establishment. The owner/chef used to work at Bombay Chaat over by CSU and he remembered us. He also routinely comes out and greets the customers. You can really taste the love in the food! Want something off the menu? No problem. You can even see into the kitchen while he cooks and chat. There are a lot of things on the menu that other restaurants don’t offer, highly recommend if you want authentic Indian flavors. The food takes time to prepare so don’t be in a hurry. Highly recommend the paneer bhurji with naan and the gobhi Manchurian with extra sauce.#SupportLocal #ClevelandIndianFood #IndianFood #CLE #Foodie #Curry“

“The dish arrived beautifully plated, immediately setting high expectations. The aroma was rich and inviting, hinting at deep flavors. On the first bite, the balance of spices stood out—neither overpowering nor bland, but thoughtfully layered. The texture was just as impressive, with a satisfying contrast that made each bite interesting. Portion size was fair for the price, and the overall experience felt comforting yet refined. Service was quick and courteous, adding to the positive impression. A place worth revisiting when the craving hits again.“

“TLDR: the food is incredibly delicious that you will be grateful that you are alive to experience it.

The food in this place is so delicious it makes me deeply emotional with gratitude. The veg. biryani legit makes me overwhelmed with appreication and bliss. You can taste the love and intention that they put into this food, with every bite. One time I went there and had the puri chaat with a side of peanut chutney and the veg biryani and just burst into tears of like pure gratitude for the opportunity to experience such a delicious and nourishing meal. It was one of those moments that I was so blissfully grateful to be alive. Food does not normally have this type of emotional impact on me, so I am aware how unhinged it may sound to have such a reaction to a takeout order. But I have this reaction just about every time I eat there. It is like an incredibly wholesome feeling I cannot describe and I am constantly grateful that this place exists and that the folks there share this cuisine with the community. I love this place! it is an absolute gem. All of the staff are super kind and provide excellent service. If you are vegan or have allergies, they are very helpful with recommendations and attention to detail. I cannot stress how awesome the food is there. Everything I have had has been fantastic. I look forward to going back.

I have never ordered from there using a third party service, but the in-person and over the phone orders I have had were amazing.“
