Garlic naan was solid

I had 2 great meals at India Hut during my trip to Indianapolis. Both times I came with coworkers,…read moreand we were all welcomed warmly by Joe and his wife Aarti, who own the restaurant. You can tell Joe is a very proud chef, and with good reason! He told us that he even grows the chilis he uses to flavor the dishes in his own garden! I tried the vegetable samosas, which were addictive, chicken korma, chicken curry, and naan. All were delicious! Everything I ate at India Hut was fantastic, and the great service made the experience even better. I'd highly recommend India Hut to anyone looking for a great Indian meal!

The interior was all remodeled with new floors, tables, dinnerware and is a great upgrade. The food suffered at the onset but has returned to high quality delicious. I love the Hut Special starter as there is something for everyone. The mango lassies are so yummy, my daughter sometimes fills up on them before her dinner gets there. I crave the palak paneer, the Tika masala are my mom's favorite. This is a local family run business and you'll find cartoons on the TV. Bring your families as your kids are always welcome to sit the kids table!

I never stopped before because they don't have a parking lot, and finding parking close by could challenging, we parked 2 blocks away. It's a small, cozy place! It wasn't very busy when we arrived, considering it was lunch time, but it got crowded while we were there and I noticed several take out orders. We were promptly greeted upon entering and since it was just the two of us, we were seated at a small table for two. However, after ordering, a side table was needed for all of our entrées! We shared the vegetable mixed platter as an appetizer, which was more than enough for the two of us. All were delicious but my favorite was the samosas with mint chutney! I chose the Chicken Tikka Masala (medium spice) with rice and garlic naan bread. Although it took awhile for it to be prepared, my meal was freshly prepared and absolutely delicious! I finished my meal with a cup of hot Masala teaAll in all, a pleasant dining experience.

The interior is cozy and nicely decorated and doesn't have an overwhelming amount of tables. They seemed to stay consistently busy inside and a steady flow of carryout orders. Spice levels are always a little tricky with Indian food. I did order a mild vegetable briyani dish for my toddler but it was too spicy for him but he did devour the garlic Naan. I ordered one of the lamb dishes "mild" and my friend one of the sizzling chicken dishes "spicy." We switched dishes as the spice levels seemed to have switched from what we requested. Overall everything was delicious. Mango lassi was great and I also decided to try Masala tea, which i will definitely have to try again.

I recently tried Desi Chowrastha Indian Eatery in Zionsville and wow... this place absolutely…read moredelivered From the moment I walked in, I could feel the warm, vibrant energy--like a little slice of India right here in Indiana. I also love supporting spots like this--it's locally owned by a Hamilton County family, which makes it even better Everything is made fresh daily using authentic cooking methods, and you can truly taste it in every bite. I started with the jalapeño paneer appetizer--creamy, spicy, crispy... honestly addictive. We had the lamb vindaloo and the butter chicken--bold, rich, and perfectly balanced. The vindaloo brought the heat in the best way, and the butter chicken was smooth, comforting, and full of flavor. I love that the menu pulls inspiration from all over India, with tons of options (including vegan), and everything comes out hot and fresh. They're open Tuesday-Sunday 10:30 AM-10 PM with a lunch buffet, full menu, and full bar.

We stopped at Chowrastha for lunch. The restaurant featuring Indian cuisine has only been opened a…read moreweek and is a relatively new franchise. For lunch they offer a buffet and for dinners, there is an a la carte menu. I'm not usually a buffet kind of diner, but I made an exception to try the food. The benefit of the buffet is that you get to sample many different options. The dining room is upscale, immaculate and comfortable with beautiful murals on the walls. A interesting mural of downtown Indy is over the bar. (BTW, they have a full bar). TV monitors played Bollywood and other colorful Indian shows. The hosted is welcoming and super friendly and tells you to go straight to the buffet, while she gets water. The $15 buffet is separated in to vegetarian options, meat options and salads. I tried a number of my Indian favorites including Chicken Masala, Butter Chicken, Vegetable Curry, Aloo (potato) Pakoda, Assorted Vegetables and salad (romaine) with assorted dressings. I also tried the Rice Curd. My favorite was the Butter Chicken and Aloo Padoka. The food was a perfect spicy for me. It was slightly spicy hot, but not unbearable. The hostess also brought us out servings of warm butter naan. She checked on us several times and encouraged us to try some desert, which we had missed. The balls of Gulab Jamun were sweet and delicious. I was glad she sent us back! Munzul, the owner, stopped by our table and introduced himself. He is friendly and sought honest feedback. He is eager to please his new clientele. There seems to be plenty of parking in the tiny strip mall lot. The building is accessible.

Food: I could've gone spicier but the mild dishes still packed the flavor you'd expect of Indian cuisine. The Gohbi Manchurian was a great appetizer that you couldn't stop eating even when it started to fill you up. The non-vegetarian Thali was also a great way to taste a variety of dishes. My only wish would be to have different curry bases for the lamb, chicken and daal. Service: The waiter gave great recommendations and helped us have a pleasure meal with attentive but non-disruptive check ins. Atmosphere: The decor and lighting makes things cozy, but it was pretty standard for an Indian restaurant.

Palak paneer - didn't care for texture as it had baby food texture. Mixed grill - chicken was over cooked and hard, all the other meats were good. Ordered lamb coconut curry and the lamb was very gamy. That comes from not cleaning the meat properly. The customer service was great and so I wish them well.

I've been to Bawarchi in Indianapolis a few times now and have tried a good mix of their dishes…read more The place has plenty of seating and the service has always been fast. The Vijayawada Chicken 65 Biryani was really good. It has great flavor, though the chicken quantity felt a bit less compared to the rice. Their salt & sweet lime soda was also nice and refreshing. On another visit, we tried both the veg and non-veg thalis. They were decent, not amazing, but good enough. The portions were huge. Honestly, they could reduce the biryani rice in the thalis and just offer refills to avoid food waste. My absolute favorite here is the juicy chicken mandi. I've tried mandi at a few places in the US, and this is one of the best I've had. The chicken is flavorful, the portion is great, and the rice is super aromatic. It comes with yogurt sauce, curry sauce, mayo, and veggies. It's only available on weekends, but it's definitely worth it. Overall, solid service and some standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the Mandi.

I was hungry for curry. I don't know anywhere that curry is served in "fancy dishware" prepared while I watch the kitchen. My husband ordered 1/2 chicken with spices, and we ordered Naan. All were delicious. From the first time (January 2025) we entered the restaurant we interacted with the owner/manager. This has not changed. However, last night I felt concern for the restaurant. Even with all the 69/37/465 re-routing, this restaurant is off the "beaten path" Every day they offer an all you can eat buffet and say it is profitable. However, without dinner traffic, I worry that they will not be successful in the future. There was one other couple besides us and people came in for carry out. Maybe it is the heat, hot dogs and hamburgers or people have forgotten this gem. My husband and I haven't. Will we go back, you betcha.
