29 Best Indian Restaurants near Malvern

“It was one of the most authentic tastes I have ever experienced. Anyone who truly enjoys Indian food should visit at least once to try their dishes and understand what real Indian cuisine is all about.👌“

“Delicious Indian food, very reasonable price for the excellent quality!“

“Amazing food, very friendly and attentive staff. I will definitely be back!!“

“I don’t usually leave restaurant reviews, but Sangam Indian Food Co. in Malvern genuinely deserves it.

We went as a family of 11 for my dad’s birthday, and it turned into one of those meals you remember long after. From the first baskets of naan to the last spoonful of curry, everything felt thoughtful, flavorful, and generous.

We’re Indian, and even the kids who usually say “Indian food is too spicy” were happily eating everything ….spice levels and all…..while still pleasing the true spice lovers at the table. That balance is rare.

Standouts included the Chef’s Special Fish Curry (my dad barely spoke after the first bite, then kept raving), the biryani, paneer and shrimp 65, pepper shrimp with slow-building heat, and an eggplant dish that quietly became a favorite.

What also stood out was the portion size and value; hearty servings and pricing that felt very fair for the quality and flavor.

We kept ordering “just one more dish,” and everything arrived fresh and full of character. By the end, the table was full of empty plates, packed leftovers, and that very satisfied silence that only happens after a great Indian meal.

If you enjoy Indian food …whether you love spice or usually avoid it ….this place somehow delivers both without compromise. We’ll definitely be back.“

“One of the best Indian restaurants in the area with variety of vegetarian and Non Vegetarian food options especially for the people craving for South Indian food. Service is pretty quick and people friendly.“

“I come from Wilmington almost every weekend just for this food truck’s weekend special pulaos — they’re absolutely worth it! Not sure why they don’t have more reviews because everything I’ve tried here has been amazing. Pretty sure I’ve gone through their whole menu by now 😂

My must-eats: Stuffed Mirchi, Punugulu, Green Chilli Pulaos, and Schezwan Fried Rice.“

“Great menu, friendly and attentive staff.“

“Came here for the buffet and didn’t realize it was 11-3, but my family and I chose to sit and dine in and were absolutely BLOWN AWAY! Probably some of the BEST Indian food I’ve ever had since moving to the east coast from the west. I would 10/10 recommend. The portions are well dished and it is a very easy place to go to for a large family like mine. The staff were very friendly and attentive and nice to chat with. Will absolutely be coming back.“

“Malgudi Cafe feels like home. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. And the food is excellent. The food served at Malgudi Cafe is the food I'm served when I visit my friend's homes in India. It's a taste of India in Exton. The food is prepared to order and is consistently delicious, so I don't mind waiting occasionally. I also appreciate that I can ask any server for help. Anyone carrying a white handheld terminal can add to my order and close my check. It's convenient, especially when they're busy. My current favorite dish is the vegetable uttapam. I spent 3 1/2 weeks in India earlier this year and didn't find any uttapam that was better than Malgudi Cafe. Same goes for the chai - it's outstanding. Do yourself a favor and get to Malgudi Cafe. You'll be glad you did!“

“Not your usual Indian! You’ll be greeted by the chef a very handsome softly spoken man who is very attentive & also very persuasive into letting him take charge of what you will eat. Pleasantly surprised was the outcome after 3 courses & lovely wine. The staff are one step ahead & know your every need from filling your glass to opening the toilet door for you. Lovely just lovely ☺️“

“This is our new favorite Indian restaurant. We tried the butter chicken, biryani, chicken 65 and masala dosa and they were all delicious. Highly recommend!“

“Tried Aloo Papdi Chat, samosa chat, chicken Tikka Roll, chilli chicken, Dhabba Chicken Curry.. ALL are yummy..kids also liked the taste of all these...“

“I had lunch at this restaurant and tried the Jalapeño Gobi 65—it was superb! It tasted incredibly fresh, unlike anything I’ve had before. I also had Mandi, which came with a variety of chicken types, and it was excellent. And also I refer to eat onion pakoda for snacks, Definitely worth trying!“

“We did take out from here. Food was very salty and not good at all. Roti was very hard and naan was very thick. We will not be ordering from this restaurant again. We ate here in past but their quality has worsen a lot. Would not recommend this restaurant to family & friends“

“It’s a bit late to share, but here’s my honest review 😊

“We love Shere-E-Punjab! We order out or sit in often. Their aloo tiki chat is perhaps my favorite dish from any restaurant. All of their food is always so fresh and delicious. We went for dining under the stars last night and got the aloo tiki chat (always!), aloo naan, chilly chicken chefs special, and malai kofta. It was as delicious as always, they never disappoint! Nice folks, great service, and DELICIOUS food!!“

“Hands down the best Indian food I’ve had outside of India! The butter chicken was perfectly creamy and flavorful, and the garlic naan was fresh and soft. Every dish was packed with authentic spices, and you can tell the ingredients are high quality.
Big congrats to the chef and the entire kitchen team“

“My friends and I have eaten at Adyar Cafe several times now. None of us have ever been disappointed. The food is fantastic. It’s my go-to Indian restaurant now.“

“I've ordered takeout before but never dined in. There was no wait and my order was taken immediately. The food was incredible! My favorites were the lamb vindaloo and shrimp tandoori. The naan was fresh, and handled the vindaloo sauce 👌 when getting some lamb and potatoes. Glad I came in for lunch, I will definitely come back for more.“

“We come to PA regularly and each time we visit it has to include a meal from tiffin, ordering is easy and quick delivery, and the food is delicious, hot and plentiful, well done to you all there,“

“Every Thursday when we go grocery shopping, dining at kokarako has become a ritual now. Street style veg noodles is my all time favorite. The taste always reminds me of the actual road style noodle I had back home. The staff and chef are very friendly and warm.“

“They really hit the mark at this restaurant. The chai tea was top notch, properly served with warm milk! Had the goat and lamb both were excellent. Almost forgot ... Had a cauliflower appetizer with a coconut sauce, would recommend this as well. This is the kind of place that has culturally appropriate music to match the food. Yes, please.“

“Had the lunch special with Chicken Chettinah, Dal, Vegetable, Raita, Roti, Rice, Pickle and Dessert for under $11! Everything was excellent and it was basically two meal because I took half home. Staff is very relaxed and the place is super clean. The area definitely has it's fair share of Indian food, but this one is worth visiting for quality and price.“

“House of India Exton, PA is the BEST Indian restaurant. Always great food, healthy portions, and friendly/attentive staff. Kudos to House of India Exton, PA.“

“The staff and the food was amazing highly recommend if you want to authentic Indian cuisine and flavors food made fresh and amazing flavor highly recommend to bring the family“

“Friendly, clean, and delicious. I’m not a picky person, so when I saw that they finally opened an Halal spot in Franklin Mills mall, I was hype. We went here before the movies and the girls were so attentive and nice. Highly recommended. Will come back and it’s my first time!“

“We loved the food, very authentic I can say. They have a great collection for vegetarian as well as non-vegetarians, especially for chicken and goat lovers. Their naans have unique crunchiness which adds more joy to the super yummy food. The balance of spices and salt was beyond what I could expect, loved every bite I had at this place. Friendly customer service, great atmosphere, highly recommended!!“

“Good restaurant good food good service“

“Good tasting food, staff is welcoming but the service is super slow. The wrap was falling apart a bit but tasted good. Too much oil in pav bhaji and they can make it healthier. Tofu was baked so that’s great. Many vegan options. Plenty of seating.“
