39 Best Indian Restaurants near Upper Darby

“Its more like a takeout. Doesn’t have great ambience for sit down meal. A quick but absolutely delicious meal if you wanna eat there as they do have 2-3 tables with chairs. I would highly recommend for Pakistani food flavor and taste.“

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

“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.“

“Delicious Indian cuisine. I’ve been struggling to find a good Indian restaurant since I moved to the Philly area about 6 months ago, and I mean really struggling. Out of all of the places I’ve tried, Srinagar takes the cake!!! The Chicken Tikka Masala is incredible and is the perfect spice level for a medium. I did only get delivery via a third party service, but would certainly consider eating in next time. Will be eating here again!!!“

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

“The food is Phenominal!! Flavorful, service was great we sat down inside and I can see why a lot of people order to go, it’s small inside but not many tables but if ordering to go you won’t be disappointed and also order the cheese nan!!!!!“

“Absolutely delicious. The best service, food, and timing. My favorite Indian in philly.“

“What an awesome experience!The attention to details and our waiter was amazing! He explained every detail and also had great recommendations and answered all of our questions with a smile. I am looking forward to dining there again. What a great team!“

“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!“

“This is probably my favorite new restaurant in Conshohocken! In summary: food is great, and the owners are so lovely and everyone truly cares about elevating your experience.

I went for the first time right after they opened, and had a wonderful experience. All of the food tasted great, but what really stood out from that first experience was the service. It’s a true family owned establishment, and it seems like the entire family works here. 🙂 we even spoke with an auntie who had flown out from her home in India to help them during the opening! Everyone stopped in to see what we thought of the food, and make sure we were having a good time. It wasn’t overwhelming, it was just so authentically caring.

In that first visit, we ordered our food spicy, but everything tasted very mild. I did give the feedback to the employees, and they definitely seemed to take it to heart. Since then, we have been back for Dina and have ordered takeout several times. We have ordered spicy, and it’s always been so spot on it’s spice level! It’s the perfect very spicy heat, but not so much that I feel like I’m gonna die if I don’t dip my face in milk. If you like some spice, but not too much, the medium should be perfect for you.

We’ve ordered so many different items. I highly recommend trying their starters, especially if you normally just order curries and skip starters. The chaats and the bhel puri are so delicious and fresh and crunchy. I really enjoy their paneer and lentil dishes, both lentil curries are fantastic. The dal maharani is rich, creamy, and savory and is the best. Their raita is also delicious and fresh. Just try everything!

It’s located well, right near the main street in town. You’ll find both street parking, and a parking lot across the street that is free in the evenings.

With the level of care that the family and the staff puts into the food and your experience, they just can’t go wrong. I’m so excited to have them in town, and I highly recommend you try them out!“

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

“Really enjoyed our meal here! The pani puri was different from the style I’m used to, but it was so flavorful that I ended up loving it. The samosa chaat was amazing, and the paneer tikka masala was hands down my favorite! so creamy and delicious. All three dishes were excellent, and we’ll definitely be back to try more!“

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

“Amazing food and great service!! 😊“

“That tikka roll was mad good. I’m def comin’ back👍🏿“

“Brought tears to my eyes from how good it was. Whenever I order from another Indian place in the area I always wish I ordered from here instead. The food is always piping hot (pickup, takeout, and delivery) and consistent with quality. The staff are also so friendly!! All around good vibes and great food.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at King of Tandoor & Biryani House, and it was a delightful culinary journey to this Indian restaurant truly lives up to its name, offering a wide array of tandoori and biryani dishes. Here's my review of the experience: Ambiance (4/5): The restaurant boasts a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a cozy dinner with friends or family. The decor reflects Indian culture, with vibrant colors and tasteful artwork, creating an authentic dining environment. Service (4/5): The service was attentive and friendly, with the staff providing recommendations and accommodating special requests. Our dishes arrived promptly, and the waitstaff was knowledgeable about the menu. Food (5/5): The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the food. We started with the Vindaloo, a spicy and tangy Goat curry. The balance of flavors was exceptional, and the tender chunks of meat (I had chicken) soaked up the rich sauce perfectly. The level of spiciness was just right, offering a pleasant kick without overpowering the other flavors. The Chicken Tandoori Mix was a showstopper. The tandoor-grilled chicken had a smoky, charred aroma and was incredibly juicy. The mix of various tandoori meats provided a delightful variety of tastes and textures. Biryani (4/5): We couldn't visit an establishment with "Biryani House" in its name without trying their biryani. We opted for the classic chicken biryani, and it didn't disappoint. Fragrant and aromatic, the rice was well-seasoned and adorned with succulent pieces of chicken. Overall Experience (4.5/5): King of Tandoor & Biryani House exceeded my expectations. The restaurant offers a great selection of Indian dishes, and the flavors were truly authentic. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries or smoky tandoori dishes, this place has something for everyone. I would highly recommend King of Tandoor & Biryani House to anyone seeking a taste of India It's a place where you can savor the rich and diverse flavors of Indian cuisine in a welcoming setting. I'll certainly be returning to try more of their tempting menu offerings in the future“

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

“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!“

“Today, July 4, was my first time dining in at Ekta. My older parents and I were looking for a place to eat (and having a tough time finding one!); finally we saw that Ekta was open, though we then discovered that it was due to close in 40 minutes. I am deeply grateful to our server, Owen, for never making us feel like we were inconveniencing the staff by arriving so close to closing, and for going out of his way to help my mom (who has limited mobility) to navigate the steps both when we arrived and when we left. He situated us at a table just next to the door, which was even more helpful. As for the food itself, my dad was delighted with his garlic kabob, and I really enjoyed the Chandrakala (first time I'd ever encountered these dried-fruit-and-coconut dumplings) and our bread selections (Lachha Paratha and Ekta Naan, the latter kind of an adaptation of the Peshawari Naan concept but with black sesame seeds included). My mom and I both guzzled our delicious lassis (mango and pomegranate). Though toned down at our request, the Alu Gobi was still a bit spicy for me, but tasty nonetheless.“

“Delicious food!!! My favorite so far is the chicken soup, mouth watering authentic spices and herbs, it so delicious!!!“

“The best Indian food on the Main Line! Great staff, quality food. They are very accommodating when dining with kids.“

“The atmosphere feels amazing the food was amazing we tried the Chicken Tikka masala, butter chicken, and naan and they were all cooked to perfection and extremely flavorful. The staffing here was also very nice and friendly. Would highly recommend if you are a fan of Indian food!“

“Found this gem while visiting Philadelphia! It may sound cliche, but we knew we were in the right place when we walked in and there was a full table of people of Indian ethnicity. The food was delicious and authentic. Plus the portion sizes were huge. We will definitely visit here again!“

“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!!“

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

“Oh my goodness, this place was delicious! I cannot wait to eat here again! The man working was very kind and friendly and helpful!“

“Wonderful local establishment with the most flavorful and consistent curries. Absolutely love the gobi Manchurian. They ask your spice preference on a scale 1-7 which is fab! And mango lassi is delightful. They also have great vegetarian options !! The shredded paneer might be a new favorite.“

“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,“

“I’ve tried quite a few Indian restaurants, and Curry Leaf Indian and Nepali Cuisine is the only one that keeps bringing me back. In fact, this is the second time I’ve ordered the exact same combination: chicken biryani, vegetable samosas, raita, and gulab jamun.

The chicken biryani is excellent. What makes it stand out are the cashews and golden raisins mixed throughout the rice. They add a wonderful balance of textures and flavors—crunchy, sweet, savory, and aromatic—making the dish feel more complex and satisfying than your typical biryani.

The vegetable samosas are equally impressive. The pastry is fried to perfection: golden, crisp, and wonderfully crunchy without feeling greasy. They’re the perfect starter or snack alongside the biryani.

For dessert, the gulab jamun is absolutely delicious. Soft, rich, and soaked in sweet syrup, it’s like biting into a delicate sponge filled with honeyed goodness.

Don’t skip the raita. This cool yogurt-based accompaniment is the perfect complement to the biryani. It balances the spices beautifully and ties together the crunch of the cashews and the sweetness of the raisins, creating a harmonious bite I also appreciate the value. This order easily lasts me four meals, making it an excellent deal for both quality and quantity.

Curry Leaf has become my go-to spot, and it’s one I’ll continue ordering from again and again. Highly recommended.“

“I've been eating from the trucks in this area for 5 years now and Nafi Food Express has become my favorite truck in the area. First, the owners of the truck are particularly friendly and generous to people in this area. Next, I absolutely love their chili chicken over rice. It is extremely flavorful and quite spicy. It's a refreshing and lighter alternative to the heavier foods served by trucks around this area. I can't recommend this dish enough. I also enjoy the $1 naan. I consider it a pleasure to recommend this food truck to people in the area.“

“5 stars! The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff was amazing! Friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. Highly recommend“

“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.“

“Nice quaint place to eat in or take out. We had the place to ourselves at 5pm on a Tuesday but there was a steady flow of ppl picking up orders. Acknowledged immediately upon entering. Prices and serving portions were reasonable along with service and wait time. Had the butter chicken with classic naan. My friend frequents this location and others so opted for the chicken tikka masala with the garlic naan. No complaints with this being my first visit to this location.“

“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.“
