20 Best Indian Restaurants in Seattle

“Stopped in for Happy Hour at Rupee. Now—we are Rupee Groupies!!! Had 4 small plates, dessert (the Love Cake), and chai, as well as a craft mango and lemon soda and a ginger beer. This is possibly the best meal we have had in Seattle in some time! The entire meal was like a symphony of flavors, each adding a distinct character and together, like heavenly music. We will be BACK! Thank you so much Rupee! #RupeeGroupies“

“Overall a really great experience. The food was fantastic and the service was great. The only issue I have was the 22% service charge added. The service charge is added, then when you pay, the machine asks for a tip. The food isn't cheap, and I thought that was very excessive. The restaurant states: "*A 22% service charge is added to every party. Meesha retains 100% of this charge. It is used to pay commissions, provide benefits, and most importantly provide a living wage to our entire staff." I have no issue with a living wage, but this cost should be rolled into the price of the food.“

“Stopped here before heading to a concert at The Crocodile, and it hit the spot! I got the Chowmein and enjoyed it. I got medium spiciness and wish I had gotten it a little spicer. The portion size was plenty and I recommend getting the garlic naan bread. They were out of puri but had no complaints otherwise.

“Yeti bar is a new "upstairs" addition to the popular Annapurna restaurant on Capitol Hill. It seems to be trafficked mostly by dinner goers who are waiting for their table at the basement Annapurna dining room. The bar is warm, cozy, and dimly lit with nice wooden accents and a view of Broadway avenue out the front windows. Funky Indian videos play on the TV screens at a lowish volume that allows for conversation.“

“I love this space. This is the place you take yourself, a place you can take a date, your loved ones. The beautiful thing about this place is the great food, but also the people who run it. You come here and who knew that you could smile so much from the warmth of the people that work here. This is a family business and one that all should visit.

I love the lunch buffet, I love the people, I love the meals.

Solid spot. Can't wait to come back. Feels like going to someone's house that you love and they have made you delicious food.“

“Food and service both were excellent Service was professional while serving & taking order. Food here is delicious biryani, chili chicken everything was perfect 👌🏻 had a good experience . I am sure I will make a plan to come back soon“

“Absolutely loved the food - authentic, flavorful, and reminded me of home. Easily the best I've had in the U.S in my experience so far. The owner who is also the chef was incredibly polite and welcoming, adding to a warm and memorable dining experience. Highly recommended Masala dosa, Vegetable Koftha Curry and Vada!
The chutney’s and sambar tasted exactly like back home in India. Everything is made fresh, so the wait time is totally worth it.“

“I stopped by this place for lunch to try the combo pod - which is basically a combination of a kathi roll and a rice dish

starting with the kathi roll (ie: roll pod), I wasn't a huge fan of it. the roti on the outside was cooked well, and had a nice browning to it, but I thought the filling
was kind of lacking. I had the chicken masala filling - and it had a bit of a weird taste to it. the chicken felt really dry, and none of the other fillings did anything to really complement it.

however, i did enjoy the rice pod much more. the basmati rice was cooked really well - super aromatic, and not dry. the tomato gravy was rich, creamy, and flavorful - it provided excellent mouthfeel to each bite - to the point where I was pretty happy even on bites that didn't include any protein. The portion size of this also felt a good amount better than what was given in the rice pod. For the filling, I opted for the mutton masala here - and I definitely could feel the spice emanating from the marinated meat. the pieces of mutton used were also pretty large. Liked this dish a lot

For the price, this combination is pretty expensive - coming in at around $18. It's a decent portion, but it's not quite enough for 2 meals - maybe 1 1/2.

Overall, the namesake roll is a miss, but the rice pod is some actually quite good Indian food. 7.75/10“

“One of the few truly tasty places in Seattle. The smell first caught my attention, and the food did not disappoint when I went in. It is a spicy flavor explosion. With this right next to my light rail stop, I worry I will soon be broke and fat.“

“Simply amazing Authentic Nepalese food that will make you go YUM! We came across this place driving down Aurora. Having been to Nepal a few tines we have great memories and love Nepalese food. Man this was the real deal. You may not think much driving by, but you cannot dispute authentic delicious Nepalese food. Service was awesome too. Reasonable prices. I had the chicken Thukpa extra spicy. The chicken breast was tender and marinated to perfection. The spices were flavorful Nepalese traditional. I cannot wait to go back. Check it out. I promise you won’t be disappointed It’s right next to the Crown Inn.“

“Enjoyed the dinner! tasty food!“

“This restaurant is a delightful hidden gem, exuding a warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. The waitstaff is incredibly attentive, taking the time to inquire about your preferred level of spice in your dishes, which was especially considerate for my girlfriend, who is sensitive to spicy food. Every item on the menu is freshly prepared, showcasing a vibrant array of flavors. The presentation of the meals, along with the traditional Indian plates and utensils, adds an authentic touch that enhances the overall dining experience.“

“Food and service was excellent!“
