50 Best Indian Restaurants near Lake Forest Park

“Went here for the first time with my partner and had a great experience. The staff was patient and attentive to everyone and they made sure we were all satisfied with our order. We had the coconut lamb curry and the vegetable saag, along with two delicious yogurt drinks that the female server suggested to us. Everything tasted amazing! Will definitely come back again when we visit Lake Forest Park.“

“Excellent experience! Can’t go wrong with a meal where everything is made from scratch. Had shrimp curry and the sauce was amazing. Appreciate that nothing in our meal was cooked in oil,grease or fat. The naan is worth the wait. Will definitely go back!“

“Small place, not fancy, but absolutely stellar food. Everything was delicious, great flavours and high quality ingredients. Really well balanced seasoning and spices. We had the momo combo, vegetable thali, lamb curry, and fried chicken and fries. Can't wait to go back and try everything else on the menuVegetarian options: I had the Vegetable thali. Really fresh vegetables, beautifully prepared. Tons of vegetarian options to choose fromKid-friendliness: My kid loves dumplings, so we ordered him some chicken momo. He also had the fried chicken and French fry appetizer plate but he mostly at the momo and some vegetables from my plate, although he said the fried chicken was "juicy and good"“

“The food was fantastic. It's very much a "serve yourself" type of place though. You have to push a button on an app to summon the wait staff, and the app says not to pay online but it seems like the expectation was you'd be paying online. In addition, some kind of loud grinder or blender was going off almost the whole time.“

“I wanted to share my recent experience at your establishment and provide some feedback on my visit. Firstly, I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere of Rupee Bar. The lively ambiance and colorful decor created a welcoming and energetic environment, perfect for socializing with friends or enjoying a night out. The highlight of my visit was the impressive selection of cocktails. The mixologists at Rupee Bar truly have a talent for crafting creative and flavorful drinks. Each cocktail I tried was expertly balanced and bursting with unique flavors, making for a memorable drinking experience. I also appreciated the variety of snacks and small plates available on the menu. The food offerings complemented the drinks perfectly and provided a delicious accompaniment to the evening.“

“Discovering this Indian restaurant in Seattle was a culinary delight. I have been there multiple times. They expertly blend authentic Indian flavors with modern fusion. While consistency is usually spot on, the salmon dish varied slightly. Yet, their Keema pav sliders and Daal remain consistently outstanding. Desserts can be hit or miss, but overall, it's a must-try for Indian food lovers. Though pricey, the quality justifies it. For a taste of India with a contemporary twist, this spot delivers.“

“Exceptional experience at this Indian restaurant! Impeccably clean environment with a friendly and polite staff. The gentleman assisting with orders was incredibly helpful. Portions were generous and the food was delicious. Highly recommend for a satisfying Indian meal. We will definitely be coming here for our Indian food cravings!“

“We dined at Hello India few times now and the taste has been very consistently great. All items are fresh and tastes wonderful. We also did a catering order and all the guest loved the food. My guests said they would definitely go and dine there again. The staff is very friendly and they actually listen to your feedback and suggestions sincerely. I highly recommend you done with your family and enjoy the authentic Indian food.“

“Someone told us to visit here for a buffet; I checked online, and they have almost 5-star reviews, so I talked to my family, and we reached here around 7 pm. My God, there was no room in the huge restaurant. They had one separate lounge and one dining area full of people; it looked like a war there. The sign said at the door, “Please wait to be seated.” in a few minutes, one gentleman arrived, and he asked if we booked over the phone, and we said no; he told me to wait. I could see what I could do for you, but in a few minutes, he was back and provided us with two tables in the lounge next to each other. The buffet started in a few minutes, and there was a very long line, but the best part was the line moved very fast. I noticed they filled the dishes again and again very frequently, especially when I noticed the Fried Chicken, Grilled Boneless, and Pizza directly from the oven. I counted around 12 steal dishes and 2 desserts, Warm Gulab Jamun and Shahi Tukray. There are three kinds of drinks: Rooh Afzah with milk, Rooh Afzah with water, and regular water, and those included in the buffet. I heard Azaan on a speaker and liked it; I mostly loved that part when suddenly I listened to the Azaan. They were swamped. I assumed they had around 150 people in the restaurant, but they managed very well. I noticed they are open till 6 am. I must visit again for the food, homemade paratha, and omellete. Excellent customer service, Clean Bathrooms, separate prayer area, and lots of parking. Must recommend.“

“Decent prices and delicious! I’ll recommend lamb curry , best of the best! Especially if you’re looking for halal food! Rapid service, if you order to go,you’ll get your order in 15 minutes which is very quick compared to other Indian restaurants! Cause I’ve been in many Indian restaurants in Seattle area, I highly recommend this place don’t listen the negative reviews, I order food from this place at least 4-5 times per week! Every Friday they have promo prices for Briyani! I noticed the negative comment from weird person, there is nothing wrong being Mexican or indian to cooking other cultures cuisine as long as they taught by chef, this is US, any race can be part of any cuisines! That’s why we are here! Sorry for being emotional, I just can’t stand when I see something unfair, this place is pretty decent with nice atmosphere and very friendly crew, when even they were almost close , they took my order without any complaints, huge respect for crew and owner!“

“The food was excellent and authentic. The portions are ample, so take care not to over order. The price was very reasonable. This is a great spot for an informal indian meal. I recommend the Chicken 65. Oh, this restaurant is about the food, so if you're nit-picky about fine dining this is not your place. If, however, you want good food at a good price, drop in--you won't be disappointed.“

“Omg ….. this restaurant is such a blessing for Indians …..after trying in various Indian restaurants and getting disappointed every time ….. finally I found one of the best restaurant in Kirkland….which is sitar …….do give it a try …. You won’t regret it……list of food items I really liked here: 1) gobhi Manchurian 2) samosa 3) kadhai paneer 4) veg chettinad 5) malai kofta ( muah muah…. I must say ) 6) butter garlic naan ( fresh and crispy) Forgot to take pics ….due to tempting food items Would love to try other food items as well ……..glad It exist near totem lake ….. my favorite restaurant“

“we ordered kale chat, baked chicken and chicken chettinad, we also ordered gulabo. the drink was so good.kale chat was ok.. baked chicken fondue is not really a fondue but was definitely one time try..chicken chetinad should be green chili chetinnad. it was so spicy that I had to stop eating and start looking for chillies that we noticed a little late so not worth returning.the highlight was the falooda. not to sweet perfect burst of different tastes in every bite.ambience was ok but I can pass that given the location is great.service was very good.“

“Have eaten here for years and never taken the time to review but now's the time! Huge menu, food is very flavorful with generous portions (including the buffet), but perhaps most importantly the staff is always friendly, welcoming, and efficient (it's difficult to get to the bottom of your water glass as they are always returning to fill it up!) Suel is particularly friendly with a good sense of humor! We love Masala and give it our highest recommendation without hesitation!“

“We arrived on a gray, rainy Sunday and were offered delicious pumpkin soup. We ordered from the special menu ($55 for 2). The flavors, warmth and presentation were pure comfort. The dessert gulkand mousse with rose and fennel is not to be missed. Anxious to try more from this menu.“

“Annapurna Cafe was a hit! My first time there, we had a reservation, and I felt like I was back in Kathmandu, Nepal, just a little bit. The host (owner) and servers immediately got us seated. The vibe and decor is done nicely. The food that we had was excellent. Samosas and garlic naan for appetizers, jhol ko momo (Nepali dumplings in soup) and tofu curry with rice were all tasty. My first bite of the momo made me feel like I was home again. Reasonably priced too and the service is awesome. I'll be heading back soon.“

“What excellent customer service I received today from Baljid, the man who picked up the phone when I called. My friend is stuck in UW Medical Center up the street and was craving butter chicken. Was confused with grub hub/uber eats so i decided to call. BALJID picked up and took my order. Even suggested dishes. I ended up ordering butter chicken with extra sauce and rice, pakora, and garlic naan. The chef cooked the food to perfection. The staff/delivery staff followed my detailed instructions of how to get the food to my friend in the hospital. Within the hour I got notification, my friend received the delicious food and was so joyful and happy. She wrote back: "HUGE PORTIONS!!! Only thing missing was you!" awwww!!! Thank you BALJID and Jewel Of India for helping me make my friends day with some delicious indian food.“

“There is literally nothing I can think of that's negative about my visit here. The food was delicious and savory. The presentation of the food was out of this world. Drinks are presented on a special platter, and the atmosphere is very 'royal' and luxurious. I would definitely go here again. Our waiter kept returning to make sure we didn't need anything, and were enjoying everything. Full 5 stars for this restaurant!Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options for all. Being a vegetarian myself, the selection was very wide.Kid-friendliness: The restaurant has highchairs available, and the staff was very friendly towards kids. In terms of food, there is definitely something available for kids 2+.“

“First time at spice wala and I am definitely coming back for the chicken tikka roll and the aloo tikki chaat. The chicken was marinated and prepared so well. Maza aa gaya khake. It was masaledar, chatpata and had the perfect tikka flavor. The aloo tikki is the closest to authentic Indian aloo tikki I have had in the US. It would have been even better had it been crispy from outside - the crispiness you get from cooking the tikki in ghee but at least the aloo filling tasted quite authentic. Also tried their lamb kebab roll which again was really good. It was quite filling because it had a good amount of lamb kebab inside. And how can I not mention the parle-g twist with chai. The chai has dominant cardamom taste in case somebody doesn't like cardamom in their tea. But the best part was that we were asked if we would like parle-g with it and who can say no to it ? Had a great time enjoying the taste of Indian street food. Thank you!!!Vegetarian options: The roll has 2 non-veg options (chicken and lamb). The rest of the menu is veg.“

“This restaurant is amazingly delicious. The flavors and spices are so unique. Truly authentic Indian cuisine. The atmosphere is decorated beautifully and the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, attentive and they treat you like family. I would definitely recommend eating here, you won’t be disappointed“

“We had buffet lunch ...... a decent selection not a huge selection ..... really liked the vegetarian stuff here at the buffet ...better to get as early as you can here for the buffet ......the vegetarian pakora was soft , yummy ....the quality was good ..... some of the booth tables have plugs for your electronics chargers ....i liked how they made the vegetarian food better then some east Indian restaurants back home ...Vegetarian options: They have a good vegetarian optionsKid-friendliness: Saw a child here“

“Where do I even start? The greeting by the very nice woman right when you walked in the door really set the mood along with the smell of amazing food. The young man had water brought out to us before we were even seated which that type of service is unheard of now a days! We ordered The Onion Bhaji, Vegetable Samosa, House Salad, Garlic & Basil Naan, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Saag Paneer. All the food was a solid 10/10 and wish I could rate even higher. The service we received from the family who owns Tandoori Hut was something like I have never seen before. Such a warm and inviting atmosphere. I will defiantly be going back and kudos to the chef as well!!!“

“Ordered Papdi Chat and chicken tikka roll. Chicken Tikka roll was good- love the amount of chicken stuffing and flavour. The chapati/roll was also surprisingly very soft.We ordered a take out and I was very impressed with how well they packed Papdi Chat. Unfortunately I didn’t take a picture of this. My experience would have been 5/5 if only the aloo was not undercooked.Recommend this place for a quick snack or chai pe charcha.“

“Every time we visit Seattle we make a point of having dinner at Mother India, the food is so good! We ordered the Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka and the Karahi Gosht all mild, because that’s all we can do :)One order of garlic and plain Naan, more than enough for three people!The service is good, they asked level of spice, and kept the glass of water full, it is a no frills restaurant but with food this good, I don’t need frills.“

“Enjoyable dinner and excellent, quick service. We ordered a chicken rogan josh, an aloo mutter mushroom, and a garlic naan. There were also mini samosas (?) as soon as we sat down and a small cheesecake after we declined dessert, both on the house. I wished for more depth of flavor in the curries, but otherwise a nice experience.“

“Ordered takeout. Restaurant smelled amazing. Our chicken tikka masala and butter chicken with garlic naan was delicious and perfectly spicy. Although our chicken chunks were much smaller than our old usual restaurant. Plenty of curry sauce though. Will order from again.“

“My experience at Caravan Kebab was truly exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant offers a delightful blend of Middle Eastern and international cuisines, providing a culinary adventure for the taste buds.Not only were the prices very reasonable for the high quality of food and service provided, but the dishes themselves were incredibly flavorful and satisfying. I had the pleasure of trying the Caravan Kebab special, which was absolutely delicious and offered a wide variety of flavors. Additionally, the garlic Nun was a amazing in taste and texture.The ambiance of the restaurant was also noteworthy. The decor was both simple and traditional, creating a cozy and welcoming environment.To complement my meal, I enjoyed a refreshing Mango Lassi, which perfectly complemented the bold flavors of the dishes.Overall, I can't recommend Caravan Kebab enough. I left feeling completely satisfied and already looking forward to my next visit. If you're in search of delicious Middle Eastern and international cuisine served with exceptional service in a charming setting, look no further than Caravan Kebab.“

“This is a vegetarian restaurant. I didn’t do much research beforehand, with a taste for Indian food & 4+ star rating we just went for it. After discovering there was no meat on the menu we decided to just get some nan. BUT the owner came out and kindly convinced us to give another option a shot, we did. And the next thing you know the menu was back in our hands!! AMAZING. You will enjoy this and you don’t even have to be vegetarian!“

“Chris, our server, was incredibly attentive and made our dining experience memorable. The food was simply outstanding - each dish was bursting with authentic flavors and expertly prepared. This place has definitely set the bar high for Indian cuisine in town. Looking forward to returning soon for another flavorful experience!“

“Had a good taste of spice after a long time away from home. Every item was apt to the spice levels. Spoke to the chef sridevi, and she is wholehearted. Somehow Google wasn't showing this place in search results. Got to know from a friend of mine.“

“This is my second visit to Roti. It has become our traditional dinner spot ahead of a Kraken game. Located on Queen Anne Ave, Roti is open 11:00a-2:30p for lunch service. They close down to switch over for dinner and reopen at 4pm for dinner service.As we approached we could smell the food all the way over by the Metropolitan Market, and our mouths started watering. We had no wait to be seated. We love that the leave a pitcher of water at the table. We decided on an appetizer, and normally we start with the samosas appetizer. Tonight we chose to mix it up and order the Chili Paneer - paneer sautéed with onions, bell peppers in this amazing chili sauce! It does have a mild kick, but it is not overpowering. I would recommend.The hubby had the Lamb Vindaloo at level 3 (hot). I ordered the Mango Chicken also at a level 3 heat (hot). Both were amazing and full of flavor. We also ordered Garlic naan and I had a mug of the Chai. A note about the chai - it is served unsweetened with sweetener provided. I absolutely loved it unsweetened. Overall, dinner was amazing and we look forward to coming back.The staff was attentive to our needs, but not overly so. They even offered some recommendations for future visits.So, if you are up near Queen Anne Ave and are looking for some amazing Indian food please check out Roti.Parking: There are several paid lots in the area“

“I have had excellent experience ordering food from SkillAtSpice. It is my go to place to order food every week and really look forward to look at their updated menu every week. Starting from the food quality to the way it tastes and is packed, they stand out compared to other businesses I have ordered with. They have my full recommendation.“

“Food quality- 5/5Service speed - 5/5We had party of 20+, where orders were flowing and so was the speed of delivery, without compromising on quality.Champaran meat was winner among all other delicious items, Jackfruit cutlet, Jackfruit kofta, Chili Chicken for spicy lovers, Chicken 65 with less spice, Vegetarian biriyani is yummy.Didn’t like Pani poori shot as it was without the coriander water.“

“We were looking for something new, comforting and close. My partner is from Nagpur and taught himself to cook to bring back flavors of home when he moved here years ago. He is nearly impossible to impress. His only comment other than how good it was: “Why didn’t you find this place sooner?” :) High praise, I’m telling you. We will be back often to try more on the menu.“

“The bottomless chai is delicious (and all but refills itself—it’s easy to drink more cups than you’d like. Attentive service. Generous portions with fresh, quality ingredients. Many choices means everyone can eat here—vegan, gluten free, children, etc. I’m leaving with a happy heart and full tummy.Vegetarian options: Every curry or sauce dish can be made with vegetables, tofu, or paneer.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, vegan, vegetarian.Kid-friendliness: Standard American fare available for non-adventurous eaters. High chairs.Wheelchair accessibility: I’m not a wheel chair user, but lots of space between tables, many tables of appropriate height.“

“Decent place for Indian food in the city of Seattle if you don’t want to drive to the Eastside. Tried their lunch boxes, chai and pakodas. Saw plenty of pickups while we were dining. They also have lunch buffet.Food - 4/5 average taste, decent proportionPrice - 4/5 reasonableService - 5/5 fast and friendlyAmbience - 3.5/5Located conveniently in the busy ballard neighborhood with somewhat easy parking options.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian section in the full menuDietary restrictions: Vegetarian options available; non-dairy and gluten-free too; some seafood optionsParking: Paid and free street parking available within 2-4 blocks of the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu availableWheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible“

“As authentic as one can get in Seattle. Bought pepper chicken, it was fresh , piping hot and good breast pieces. The spice and the curry texture was well done, very peppery! Wouldn’t regret buying from this place. Happy to have discovered this new place .“

“The place was very busy, this may cause a variety of unwanted situations some of which are caused by customers themselves. We had to wait a little over 20 minutes which is not unusual for the day and time especially when the food is reported to be very good. While we waited we checked the menu and ordered our food which came to us nice and hot and without much waiting. We found the service to be very good and the food was excellent. We had the chicken tikka massala and the mutton as our main plates and also had the fried kale "fritters" (I forgot the name) which was very tasty. Everything was good and we can say this is a great place for Indian food. Will return.“

“Decent place and good food. This is inside the building on the first floor with two more food places adjacent and a common seating around. Seems this place is here since the 90s. Owner was welcoming. I had the lamb and rice and it was delicious. The green tangy sauce that came along with it was my favorite. Next time I will ask for two more of those..“

“We were celebrating our mom’s milestone birthday and based on some friends recommendation we chose Rasai. We had not eaten there before and were not sure what to expect . We were a large party . Our communication with Raj from the get go was great . He was very cooperative and made it easy to plan the evening .The celebrations went very well . The ambiance of the place is very nice , warm and intimate . The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed it .The staff were attentive and made the entire experience great!! Thank you Raj and the rest of the staff for a wonderful evening!“

“We were in town on Business and came across this place. We went 3 times in 4 days, great place. Tandoori Chicken, Butter Marsala, Lamb Boti Kabab were all good. For Dessert we liked the Gulab Jamun and Kulfi. We made sure to grab a fe take out menus for the office and the Hotel we were at.“

“Omg finally a Pakistani restaurant that offers mild options AND has delicious food. They have happy hour every day and even sell mocktails!!! Their lycheetini is so so so good. I honestly loved everything on their menu. Their naans are baked fresh and included with the curries. My new favorite restaurant, honestly the best one in the area. I drive 30 mins out for them bc it's worth it Vegetarian options: Lots of options including both South Asian curries and Mediterranean food like hummusDietary restrictions: Offers vegetarian, GF, and alcohol free options (mocktails)Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible“

“Nice restaurant for dine in. The owner is friendly. I tried Haleem and Goat biryani. If you are expecting Hyderabad like haleem/Biryani you will be disappointed. Haleem was more like a curry. The ambiance was good. Giving 3 stars for the taste and 4 for the service / atmosphere.“

“Our hotel was a couple blocks away from this place. We just recently started eating Indian food and I wanted to try out this place based on the reviews. We got it to go as we had just gotten into town and wanted to eat it at the hotel. Pay no mind to the styrofoam bowls and plastic cutlery, it’s what our hotel had handy to use. My husband got the butter chicken and I got the goat Rogan Josh. I love that they had goat available. We also got an order of bullet naan to split. The food was piping hot and plenty. We had enough to eat the next day for breakfast.This place gets bonus points for having goat on the menu! It was delicious as other reviews have said. With the construction, we drove there instead of walked. I noticed the sign said under new management but we are not local so we don’t know what it was like with the old management.If you like Indian food this place is worth a try!“

“I got the Bombay cheeseburger at a level 3 spicy and some sweet potato fries. The fries were good but I personally would have preferred some more seasoning on them, but, the burger? This might have been the best burger I've ever had in my life.Vegetarian options: Lots of tasty vegetarian options in the menu I would say close to half the menu is vegetarianKid-friendliness: Chill vibe, nice homey atmosphereWheelchair accessibility: The location is on a hill and the sidewalk is currently under construction so there is a path made to guide pedestrians, an asphalt ramp is currently the only way to access the restaurant.“

“This is my absolute favorite Indian food place. Their chicken korma is soooo good. I dare say it is better than most Indian curries I have had when I was living in India.Our usual order includes the chicken korma, bread basket and veg samosas sometimes.“

“Growing up in Bangalore, the birthplace of authentic Dose(not Dosa), I was longing for good dose until I came across The Bangalore Kitchen. I don’t mind waiting in line, driving on a Sunday to a busy market, daring cold weather, etc to taste the authentic Dose served truly in Bangalore style. The huge line every weekend is a testimony for the authenticity in the taste. Will go there again and again just to eat the Dose. Please don’t change the menu, especially the Benne Masale ?“

“Had a great dinner, take out from this place. Lovely ambience and lots of fun art on the walls. A treat for Bollywood fans. The food was delicious too, with some very yummy options and very good service. Pricing is reasonable. Definitely recommend.“

“From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, adorned with charming decor and soft lighting. The menu boasted an impressive array of dishes, promising a culinary adventure that had our taste buds tingling with anticipation. However, upon sampling the fare, we were left underwhelmed by the lackluster flavors and uninspired presentation. Despite the attentive service and pleasant ambiance, the overall dining experience was overshadowed by the mediocrity of the food. While the restaurant certainly has potential, it falls short of delivering the exceptional dining experience it advertises.“

“I really love chutneys weekend brunch buffets.What a treat to have brunch in a historic school.(where the actual cafeteria was I heard). The staff are always so kind and funny too.Food does not bother me like most other Indian restaurants, must be the organic ingredients. Well worth coming here .“
