29 Best Indian Restaurants near Upper Darby

“Their food is consistently delicious. Highly recommend!!!“

“We were in Upper Darby area and hungry, so I went for a quick grab and ordered chicken Samosas. Very crispy, delicious and full of filling! The size was good, too. We enjoyed it.
The spot is quite far from my place otherwise I would have been dropping in every once in a while.“

“I DIDNT WANT TO ONE STAR,
However , I have been to this place, all times of the day , all days of the week, when Google says it’s open, never have I met this place open.
Maybe update business to temporarily closed ?
The phone number you also have on Google doesn’t seem to work ?“

“Best Party hall and grocery store owners everAt first, I visited Dana Mandi when it was in downtown at chestnut street. I had mouth watering Paronthe Makhan naal with a big glass of tea then.After 5 years from that time, I recently tried finding this place out again and learned it got shifted to upper darby. I was traveling back to Newyork from DC with my parents and told them i will get you best quality punjabi tea from this place. To my surprise when I reached there, Sardar ji (the owner) told me that due to huge loss of property due to floods and almost no recurring customer base he had to shut down the food corner :(. I felt sad for their situation and politely asked them for an alternative place near by.He said wait, you are my guests now I will get you all some fresh tea from our kitchen downstairs.We sat in their party hall (which was under construction then and almost done) and he served us delicious tea as his vip guests and not the customers. Later, I also bought groceries for my house since we were heading back after the weekend trip.We felt so much warmth with the respect we received from the gentleman who had such bad time in previous years due to personal and professional setbacks as he mentioned during the conversation we hadI humbly request every one to give them a chance to revive and flourish as another local business in your area.God bless him and his family with health and wealth. I will surely come back a million times if God permits.“

“Excellent food and service! Will definitely be back!“

“We had booked Veda for our daughter's wedding welcome dinner on 5/3/24. The whole process from the time we contacted them till we had our function was smooth. They were very accommodating to our requirements and went beyond our expectations. If you are looking to have a large gathering I will definitely recommend doing a buyout. We decided on the menu and then we were guests at our own dinner. It is full service. The ambience was good and our guests enjoyed both the food and their awesome selection of cocktails. Gaurav Bhardwaj and Brazil provided excellent service. Did I mention Food? Very Good and Flavorful. We are from Delhi and big foodies, and I must tell you that they superseded our expectations. The décor is very pleasant and we didn't need to do anything additional They provided us two stations for our henna ladies. Our function was a big hit. Check them out for your next baby shower, engagement, birthday function!!!!!“

“Fantastic food. Great spot. Would recommend to anyone.“

“Loved it here! A huge part of the good experience was the affordability, how quick the food came out, and the great appetizers. I absolutely loved the gobi manchurian and samosa chaat! Will absolutely be back & will make the drive from Philly.“

“Lamb Saag was delicious. Paratta bread was buttery and flaky. The coffee was good too!“

“excellent meal, fantastic service, and lovely atmosphere. really enjoyed the french lamb chops! they were out of this world. what a marinade they must use! Other favorites included the garlic cheese naan, the veggie samosas, and of course the butter chicken. It is rich, smooth, and delicious. and don’t forget a mango lassi!!!“

“Overall, a 10 out of 10 experience I come here with my family close to about every week. This place brings joy, fun and a little bit of culture I had into our family life. I love Indian food but I love the kind and caring atmosphere more. May Jesus bless you all 💕💐“

“What fabulous and tasty food. We had not been here in quite some time and the food has improved significantly. The naan was the best I have ever had we ordered onion flavored. It was the perfect complement to my chicken tandoori. Service was prompt. Great, casual atmosphere and a lovely date night experience. You must try it.“

“We’ve been coming here for years. The menu has changed, but the quality has not! From chaat, to lassi, to their desserts… we recommend all of it. One of our favorite places, and we can use uBerEats now so it’s even more convenient!“

“A gal pal suggested we try out the new restaurant. It was EXCELLENT. I had lamb saag. She had mango chicken? We tasted each other's food and just giggled. We had the smoothie and Indian Coke drink- both awesome. The dining room is TINY but the table settings are works of art- fancy napkin sculptures and elegant, playful silverware & dishes. The onion stuffed naan was exquisite. Our server was attentive, polite and answered our questions without hostility or offense. The spices are ON POINT. Their system of personally developing everyone's plate is outstanding. I discovered that I am a wimpy +2 while my friend is a +3. Trying both our food with the varying heat/spice ratios, I could enjoy and taste all the flavors without having my tongue burned off, lol. My ONLY complaint, which has kept me from trying them in the past, is that to order and pick-up take-out, you must use their back door which I find to be creepy and dangerous looking. So I guess I'll only go when I can eat in, using the front door, LOL. However, I was impressed when we asked for our leftovers to be packaged, our server gave each of us free complimentary fresh bismati rice to go along with our uneaten entrees. They give good portions! And the packaging is washable, reusable, recyclable plastic containers- not cheap carboard that soaks up sauces or scary unstable thin plastic that leaks or horrible styrofoam that should be outlawed. THIS RESTAURANT IS WONDERFUL!“

“Kind and helpful staff. Food is quite good. I encourage you to try it. You will definitely like this establishment.“

“Lamb Saag was delicious. Paratta bread was buttery and flaky. The coffee was good too!“

“Good food, very nice people, very comfortable. We will return.“

“If I could give this restaurant at 10 stars I would! The chicken tikka masala was DIVINE. The chicken was tender and juicy and it had the perfect spice level( I chose the medium) The garlic naan… CHEFS KISS. The whole meal was worth my while. Will definitely be getting again!“

“We just met Juby and had the pleasure of trying his amazing food at his new Chestnut Hill location. What a fantastic addition to the Market at the Fareway! Everything was so good and we can’t wait to come back!“

“The chicken masala was very flavorful, with excellent spices that really stood out. The biryani was also delicious and well-prepared. On top of that, the service was friendly and attentive, making the whole meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!“

“Best Halal food truck in the city! Even better than some restaurants. 10/10.“

“Great for the whole family! We've been regulars at Saffron Indian Kitchen for months now, and the monthly specials never fail to impress. This month, we loved the Tandoori Saloon Tikka perfectly spiced with a smoky flavor. We're so grateful.“

“Amazing food and great service!! 😊“

“We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala (good), Garlic Naan (good but only one piece split in half for $5), Gobhi Aloo (good), Saag Paneer (very good), and Samosa Chaat (very good). Would eat here again but unfortunately the rice was disappointing. Most other places I’ve been to offer a bit more naan than that for $5 and have rice so good I’ve enjoyed it by itself.“

“more than one instance i/we passed by indian sizzler in the morning and into the night to dine in or walk around the area 🪷

• chicken biryani 🍗 was good and saucy 🧈👌🏻
• goat achari 🐐 achari means pickled, so there’s a sourness to this. i’m not exactly fond of goat, but i do agree it's a bit full of bones 😂
• shrimp sagwala 🦐 spinach is the main ingredient here with coconut milk 🍃
• mango lassi 🥭 classic indian drink to try whenever we go indian“

“Amazing food and amazing service at a very reasonable price would highly recommend and visit again“

“Me and My Husband Been Wanting To Try Indian Food For The Longest And This Is The Perfect Place! EVERYTHING Was So Delicious! The Atmosphere Was Chillin And Intimate Me And My Hubby Loved It! We Sat At The Bar And They Had The Coolest Halloween Decorations Displayed Around The Bar It Was SO Cool! The Mango Martini Was SO Good! And The Staff Was Very Attentive And Kind! We Will Definitely Be Returning!“

“If you enjoy classic dishes from India & Nepal, or if you're a first timer to this culinary experience, make the Nirvana brand your paramount dining destination in the Philly region. Eat-in or take-out you won't be disappointed.“

“A College Journey Fueled by Incredible Indian Cuisine

I’ve been a loyal customer of this amazing Indian restaurant since my freshman year, and now, as a junior, I can confidently say their food has been a core part of my college experience. Their chicken tikka masala and paneer tikka masala are absolutely outstanding — rich, flavorful, and consistently delicious. Every bite feels like a comforting taste of home, no matter how stressful school has been. The quality has never wavered in the years I’ve been coming here, and their warm hospitality makes every visit feel special. I’ve celebrated good grades here, taken breaks from late-night study sessions, and treated myself on tough days — and this restaurant has never let me down. It will be genuinely bittersweet to leave this place behind when I graduate, but I know the memories (and cravings!) will stay with me forever. If you’re looking for food that’s not only delicious but also reliable and soul-satisfying, this is the spot. I cannot recommend it enough!“
