Absolutely love this spot. The workers are beyond friendly, accommodating, and they make the BEST Indian food I've had compared to all the other places in our area. There is never a question weather or not to order from here because the answer is always yes! My entire family loves this place !!!!! Some of my favorites are Paneer Makhani, Saag Paneer, Baingan Bharta, & The Veggie Biryani. read more

I could eat here several days a week. Everything I've had there is great but I absolutely love the Mango Chicken and Lamb Korma! The potato and cheese naan is extremely good. read more

Found my new Indian food spot! The chicken Vindaloo was absolutely killer! Spicy, flavorful and only lightly oily. They give you the correct amount of Jasmine rice, too many places skimp on the rice, it doesn't make sense to me since it's the cheapest thing to make. The prices are very reasonable here. Vegetable somosas were great and the garlic naan was also on point! They have a few tables inside the restaurant but we called in and ordered for pick up. read more

Hands down the best chana masala in Philly, lots of vegan options and very friendly and knowledge staff. I've been going here almost weekly since they opened. read more

Our go-to Indian restaurant! We've tried a bunch of different naans and they were all great and go well with their other dishes. Veggie samosas are a good size and delicious especially with the sauces they provide. Their saag paneer is the best I've had. We sometimes also get lamb briyani and/or a chicken dish and both are great as well. Portions are all large especially for the price so we always have leftovers. Staff is friendly when you call and when you pick up the food as well! read more

The food here is delicious and the people are friendly. It's family owned and feels like the recipes are from a mom's kitchen.

I placed an order over the phone and when I got there they said it was going to be another 5-10 minutes. A couple minutes later and a woman walks in with food she received mistakenly. They swapped her food out and I quickly realized that was my food they mistakenly gave to her. I watched them rewrap my food that someone else opened and then gave it to me. I didn't say anything because they are obviously the kind of people that don't see an issue with this. I don't want to cause a scene but I also want to let people know what they practice. Definitely won't be returning here. read more

This place is the best Indian around, no contest. I used to live on the west coast and had a lot of access to great Indian places. This place EASILY rivals them and beats a lot of them read more

Consistently great food, ordered from them twice! Prices are reasonable! Will be my go to place around me!

Like fries, pakora is best in person, hot and a flavorful crunch. Hard to do in takeout. The curry was great

From the outside very gritty looking . Old neighborhood. I was concerned honestly about the foods cleanliness. We were pleasantly surprised. Food was great. Generous portions. Food was made as we requested.. mild, Vegan and free. Glad to report no stomach upsets and food was tasty. We will be back. read more

This place is awesome. Great portions. Delicious. Best prices around! The woman who took my order was friendly and my food was ready when I arrived. New regular spot for Indian take out! read more

Ordered takeout today. Manager on phone was friendly. Love their chicken tikka masala; was so delicious!

Great food, great portions, and really nice staff!! This may become my go to Indian place!

Ate in recently. Had the saag paneer, and it was perfect. The naan was excellent, rice was perfectly prepared. The rest of us had the chicken tikka masala, and everyone loved it. Good prices, good food, extremely pleased. read more

It doesnot look grand from the outside but the food tastes grand . It has really delicious food. The workers are cheerful and helpful. Will really recommend this place:D read more

I love, love LOVE this little place of heaven!! I discovered First Indian in mid 2020. I moved to NJ this past summer but the freshness, taste, portion-size AND friendliness of the staff keeps me coming back. Usually, you have one favorite at a restaurant. Not me. I've tried most of the vegetarian choices, dabbled in the seafood...I have not - and YOU will NOT be disappointed! Savory, authentic, mouth-watering deliciousness every time. I did say that I travel from Jersey, right? read more

We love Indian food in my house so I must say that I was really excited to have an Indian restaurant in my neighborhood and I could get takeout. I ordered Lamb Curry, the flavor was all you would expect but the lamb was tough and basically inedible . My daughter ordered Chicken Tikka Marsala and she said "a little spicey" (she loves spicey hottt) well it was too spicey. Again, inedible. The samosas were delicious, exactly what you'd expect. You only need one order of naan for four people because two orders could feed a small army. The staff were polite and pleasant and because of that I will consider trying 1st Indian Kitchen. read more

Good Indian food. Probably one of the best in a large radius of the greater Philadelphia.

I was really excited about this new little spot just a few walkable blocks from home. I love Indian food especially the North Indian style of cooking. I have just had my third visit so I can rightfully say that I think this place is my new fave! They won me over with the Saag Paneer which is my favorite. The samosas that I ordered were nice and hot . The portions are great and the prices are reasonable. I've even tried some things that I haven't usually tried at Indian spots such as the Shrimp Chilly and the Fish Pakora. They were both good . Definitely appetizers or good to try alongside the main meal. I would suggest everyone pick up a menu. I appreciated the nice Veggie selection which I prefer but so much to offer otherwise. The people were very nice and polite. read more

Great food at a good price. Love the samosa chaat , nan and chicken tikka masala. Mmmm.

Solid Indian food. Really glad I found a place that gets it right. Reasonable prices and delicious flavors. They give you tons of rice and a lot of food in general. Highly recommend this joint! read more

They're food is SOOO GOOD!! You can just feel the love and care they put into there dishes. Tastes so perfect and warm, definitely will be coming back again!! read more

Excellent Indian food. Perfect portion sizes, friendly staff, and convenient location on WCP. I wish they were open on Tuesdays, but they deserve the break. read more

This place is amazing it's a great place to take your children for a family for dinner or lunch their prices are great I hope you like spicy. read more

I saw some good reviews on yelp for this spot so I gave it a try. I had the butter Chicken and garlic nan to take out and it was spectacular. I ordered the chicken mild and the spicing was perfect. Primarily a take out spot and I called and they said 30 minutes, I showed up it 15 and everything was ready. I can't wait to work my way through this menu. The portion of chicken was large and very flavorful, I will be finishing it up for dinner this evening. Enjoy. read more

Great food. Friendly staff. We've tried quite many dishes and everything was great. If you like the spice kick, ask them make it spicy.

Best Indian food in the area! Well spiced, flavor is spot on, and affordable. Plus the people working there are so darn nice!! My go to!

Great take out! We tried the samosa, samosa chat, naan, curry, korma, and biryanis all with chicken and the paneer masala and cauliflower vegetarian dish. All wonderful and flavorful, leftovers for days! read more

The food is delicious, totally worth the money because you get tons of food unlike the popular Indian places around. The papadi chat, chicken tikka masala is bomb. And when you order biriyani they fill it up to the brim. This is my go to Indian place for ordering Indian food. read more

The food was excellent. We enjoyed everything we ordered, including the hot and spicy wings, curry chicken, baigan bharta and fish pokra (I don't know if I spelled these correctly). Well done!! read more

It is rare that I write a review, but warranted for this case. Everything we ordered at 1st Indian Kitchen was absolutely delicious, portions were large, and restaurant was well-run. This will definitely be our go-to place for Indian food going forward! read more

We stumbled upon this restaurant through ubereats and boy, are we glad we found them! We have tried multiple dishes and each of them has been delicious and authentic in taste - a difficult balance to achieve. It is the only Indian restaurant where we were able to order "Chole Batoore" as well - one of my favorite dishes! Other items that we have tried include Paneer makhani, dessert such as kheer, appetizer such as samosa chaat. We are definite repeat customers! read more

Best Indian food in Delaware county. Looks like a hole in the wall, but everything I've ordered here is amazing. The naan bread is always so hot and pairs perfect with whatever I ordered. We love the items with lamb, cauliflower, eggplant and cashew chicken. I'm not a huge fan of sag, but my brother loved it. They always give me a long time for my takeout orders but it is always ready when I get there ten minutes early read more

Will never go to this spot again. I placed an order online and went to pick it up. In front of the restaurant says you must wear a mask. I entered the restaurant with a mask on just to find out none of the workers had their masks on. I hesitated to purchase my order, but did it only bc they took the time to make it. Though they couldn't take 2 seconds to put on a mask. SMH!! After leaving I called the same night and was reprimanded by the owner for pointing out that no one working there had masks on. read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight, we ordered take out but there are a few tables for dining in. We got samosa chaat, mutter paneer, malai kofta and chili chicken. Without a doubt some of the best Indian food we have ever eaten. The flavors were excellent but were more on the spicy side. I requested medium spicy and everything was make your hair sweat spicy. Next time we'll tone it down but the flavor was worth the pain! The portions were large and very reasonably priced. We are so excited that this place is near our house and will be coming back! read more

Food is delicious, prices are low, portions are high. The owners are lovely and this place gets a 10/10 from me.

There isn't a lot of Indian food in our area so I was very hopeful. Food was great with good portions and good prices. We had lamb vindaloo, veg korma, saag paneer and some garlic naan. Yum! read more
