I had been wanting to come back to Ifra's and dine in with the family since last time we came here we had a good experience. Unfortunately, this time was very different. Ambiance is still good and the restaurant looks very clean and decor is simple but nice. Service was bad.. only one person for the entire restaurant. When we arrived there were only 2 people dining but that changed quickly... within 20-30 minutes it was packed and only this one person to take orders, clean the tables, bring water and drinks, take the food out to the tables... etc, etc, etc. you get the picture. It was a bit chaotic. Whe the food arrived... it arrived all together. Appetizers, soup, bread, main course. (everything at once). Mulligatawny soup was under seasoned as it was the malai chicken. Needed salt and needed flavor overall. Something you never think to say about Indian food. The lamb kadai we order it spicy and it was not even close to medium. The sauce also lacked a lot of flavor. Overall a bad experience. Bad service and food needs a lot of attention. (IMHO) read more

We tried this gem for the first time on Sunday and loved this authentic Indian cuisine restaurant. We didn't have to wait for a table and they brought us our food fairly quick. We also had butter chicken and it was very tasty! read more

After ordering multiple times on Uber eats, we decided to try dining in at Ifra's. Inside was a little warm for my liking, I definitely think they should turn the air conditioning down some. Our waiter was stern, not the friendliest, but attentive. The food tasted better fresh than delivered. I do have to point out; hey did not have any ice, which I thought was weird. Also, the table cloth was dirty at our table when we got there. This joint has decent food, but it is in need of some TLC. read more

I must say their chicken Tikka masala is so good. If you are in the area and fancy some Indian food then I recommend.

Ifra is our favorite local place for Indian food. They have one of the best lunches specials around. It's high quality and a lot of value for the money. We got the Chicken Masala and Chicken Madras linch specials during our last visit. The staff is really cool as well read more

Unfortunately, I took no pictures. I took one look at the warm, buttery naan and it was game over. This place is how I imagine going to a friend's house for dinner. The food is home-y, inviting and warms the soul. I tried the butter chicken, lamb rogan josh, dal bhindi and a side of butter naan. SO. GOOD. The portions are plenty - don't be fooled. I'll have food for the week. The rice is cooked to perfection. The naan is as soft as a pillow. The flavor of each sauce is so rich. Have I convinced you yet? Pay them a visit. I'm certainly coming back to eat at the restaurant, and I'm asking for recommendations. The staff seemed very nice and the restaurant itself is simple and cute. read more

Definitely one of the best Indian cuisines I've ever had in Miami. I discovered Ifras on Uber eats a week or two ago and told myself I had to come through and dine in at their location. The ambience was cute and tranquil. The service was excellent. This is an absolute gem. Today i ordered the lentil soup , Goat curry and Palak paneer. Absolutely delicious! The spice was right just perfect, the portions are just right. Everything hit the spot. Really looking forward to returning soon. I highly recommend Ifras if you're looking for a delicious meal. I promise they will not disappoint. read more

I am very reluctant to try Indian restaurants in Miami. Especially with my terrible experience in Ghee. Then Ifra changed my mind. The chicken Saag was amazing. The samosa's perfectly cooked. Garlic naan was delicious. Service was great too. He took time to explain the food. You can sense the pride. Food was so good, I forgot to take a picture. It was gone in no time. Nice and cozy place. A must. read more

Very rare do i make a review while sitting in the restaurant but this place was such a deliciously, fulfilling, divine place to eat. In my opinion it deserves an outstanding 10/10. Michelin star worthy and the next competitor not even in the same level. Truly great service, amazing food, overall a, definitely coming to eat here everyday, experience. This place truly doesn't need the lights and glamour show when they have food that speaks for itself. Will come back to this place running. read more

Top 3 or 2 of the best Indian food I've ever had and this is saying a lot, since I'm from Queens, NY. The flavors are complex, layered, warm and inviting. (Just ask for Indian spicy if you really want heat) The Naan was sublime...the service? Couldn't have asked for better service, so attentive. The restaurant it self is cozy yet spacious at the same time... read more

This is not a Indian or Pakistani cuisine it's 100% BENGALI FOOD! If you are from India or Pakistan this is not your place! The chicken tikka was extremely sweet and biryani was just lamb (looked beef) and rice mixed in a pot! Food ended up in trash! read more

the food was delicious! it was my first time trying indian food and it was absolutely fantastic i ordered the mango curry chicken and it was a little sweet and spicy (mild level) next time i will order my dish a little spicier. the butter chicken was delicious as well and the shrimp biryani was also delicious. over all i loved the butter chicken paired with garlic naan. 10/10 read more

We tried this place for the first time. I went according to the great reviews and was excited to try it but we were all disappointed. Let me first start with the service. Our waiter was less than happy to be there--very serious, dry, not friendly--just going through the motions. We ordered Butter Chicken, Chicken Korma and a Lamb Curry dish. All very bland and just okay. We did order Onion Kolcha and Garlic Naan. That was good. We even ordered a spicy chilli sauce on the side and that was just okay as well. Overall, just okay all the way around. Don't think we will be returning. read more

The spicy biryani was my favorite, and the Gobi Manchurian was absolutely delicious. It's a must-visit spot if you're craving Indian cuisine, with a wide variety of non-veg options. The staff was friendly and courteous. read more

Overview The mango lassi is one of the best I've tried lately, and the naan, plain, garlic, and cheesy, are very good, but the actual food is lacking in flavor AND spice, the service is a little slow. The Experience My parents invited my aunt and me to have a bit of Indian food, and since our usual spot wasn't open, we selected Ifra's. We started with a couple of mango lassies (mango-flavored yogurt drink) which were really, really good, and 2 rations of samosas (the menu has chicken and vegetable samosas, but they didn't have chicken, so we got the vegetable. Each ration has two, good sized, well filled samosas. with a ver mild taste, but pretty good regardless. They come with tamarind sauce and mint sauce... the tamarind sauce was good enough, the mint sauce was not up to expectations. Again, the flavor isn't bad, but you've definitely had better (I know I have). The main courses were where the real problem started. We ordered two Tandoori Chickens, one Chicken Tikka Masala and one Chicken Korma. We specifically requested one of the Tandoori chickens and the Chicken Korma to be extra hot. There were three issues with all of them: 1) almost no salt. easy fix: the salt shake on the table. no problem 2) almost no flavor. yes, even after applying salt. both the mild dishes and the supposedly spicy dishes had such a bland flavor, that if it weren't because of the colors and/or sauces, you would have trouble to accept they were actually prepared. 3) no spice at all. now, this is a plus for the non-spicy (mild) tandoori and to the (mild) non-spicy tikka masala, but the Korma had no spices at all, and I dare anyone to try the both the spicy and the mild Tandoori chicken and tell me which one was which one. My father actually sent it back and they brought it back "spicier". It actually was spicier than the first time, but I've had spicier "mild" versions in other restaurants. Now, I have the theory that Indian food restaurateurs eventually get tired of customers not knowing what they were getting into, and that's why there comes a point when they don't even try to deliver spicy dishes to the regular public. I can understand that business decision, and that's why I know I can go and usually order the hottest level in the menu because I'll be able to handle the spiciness... but this was ridiculous. There is a difference between mild-ing it down for the "delicate" unaccustomed Miamian palate, and a whole different thing to be bland. And that's what this was... I read quite a few reviews here saying it was either great or very spicy and I disagree on both statements: even if we disregard the lack of spiciness, as I said before, the flavor, while good, was very, very bland. The service was ok, if a bit (very) slow, even though we were the only occupied table in the whole restaurant. I don't know, maybe they had a bad day... But I don´t think I'll be giving them a second chance food-wise... but I'm very likely to go and get another mango lassie in the future. read more

Delicious chicken mar everything is fresh. Service was good. Nice vibe. Place is clean.

Was craving some Indian food and was reminded of this delicious spot a few blocks away from my place! Of course, I ordered lots of garlic naan bread and chicken tikka masala which was creamy and delicious. The portion was very generous. Food was ready at the time it said it would. Place is small and cozy, and though I've never dined in, it seems like a lovely place to sit for dinner. read more

My new favorite Indian restaurant. I had chicken tandoori, it was succulent, seasoned perfectly, delicious. The garlic naan is to die for, my son had butter chicken, his wife a lamb vindaloo, they both raved about their dishes. Oh, the vegetable samosas are great. The service & ambience spot on!! PS Generous portions read more

Absolutely delicious! Great service and very very good food. I will be making this a regular place. A gem of Miami!!

Normally I would have walked out of this place because they had no air conditioning. But stayed because I was with family. The tandoori mixed grill was extremely salty. STOP OVERSALTING YOUR FOOD! The korma was okay. I wouldn't come back here. read more

I went here for lunch with my wife and daughter. The service was excellent! Very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing! My daughter ordered the Butter Chicken, my wife ordered the Lamb Vindaloo , and I had the Chicken Tikka Masala, we also ordered garlic cheese Naan. I got to taste a little of each dish, it was hard not to eat too fast and to keep my restaurant manners because the flavors were so good!!! This easily made it to the top of my favorite foods list. I'll definitely be back there soon. read more

The food was excellent! We went to another Indian store before this one a week ago and this one definitely beats the other place. The service was great and the staff was friendly.

Ifra's Indian Kitchen - Butter Chicken and Garlic Naan, pictured is only half of the portion they gave me! so good! - Indian Near Me - Pinecrest, Florida

There was only one person working in the dining area. They were in charge of cleaning tables, waiting tables, taking online orders, taking orders over the phone, among other things. We were seated before two other tables, and our orders were taken AFTER everyone else even though we told the waiter we were ready to order. The food took over an hour to make it out of the kitchen. During that hour we witnessed multiple people walk into the restaurant to pickup food, and waited for so long that they gave up and left. We received our food only after threatening to leave without paying, and what we received was the most rushed, poor attempt at Indian food we have ever experienced. I wouldn't feed it to my dog. If you want to have a consistently pleasant experience at an Indian restaurant, go to Bombay Darbar in Coconut Grove. read more

We were completely fooled by the reviews. We wanted to dine in at a place closer to our hotel and this one popped up. I picked it up after reading the reviews. Even though its name has "Indian Kitchen", it's more of a Pakistani style food than Indian. We picked up a corner table and the lady handed over the menu. She mentioned that all items are available. We ordered the Chicken Biriyani, Mahi Mahi Vindaloo and Naan. There were a few other customers picking up the food. We waited almost 20 minutes for the food to arrive. Will start with the best food. That was Naan. It was soft and fresh. The chicken biriyani was different- loaded with dry fruits. It was evident that the chicken was cooked separately and added to the rice. It lacked any flavor the rice had. Kind of disappointed the way it was done. But the Mahi Mahi vindaloo was the ultimate disaster! The fish was not fresh, even though claimed it's fresh. It was dried/frozen fish, half cooked and added to the Vindaloo gravy! Even though the gravy had its flavor, but nothing for the fish. We just left it as it was. We even spoke to the lady about it. But she was adamant that it's fresh! Luckily they served white rice on the side - at least we had something to eat! Overall a disappointing experience. We had to waste a lot of food just because of the poor quality. Moreover they are in complete denial about what kind of fish they used. This place had a 4+ star rating and didn't leave up to the expectations. We were there for an hour - looking at their customer base, looks like it's so easy to fool people with kind of food they serve as "Indian food". read more

Best Indian food I've found in Miami. It's babe average overall. Very nice staff. Small place but good atmosphere. I go here once a month.

I thought to stop by for a quick lunch, but turns out they do not offer lunch menu. A little disappointed, as I like how lunch menu lets me enjoy some soup/appetizer/dessert along with my entree, so I get to a fuller sample of their food, and also it's a waste when I can't finish the dinner portion but can't take the leftover with me. Anyway, I ordered a Biryani. It came in a timely manner. I love the flavor, it packs a good heat, but I wish the vegetables were fresher. Some were chewy or hard to bite into. Reading other reviews, it seems to be a recurring theme. I get a feeling that they are trying to compensate for the higher food cost with lower quality of ingredients. The place is bright and clean, unlike some older Indian restaurants that may look dim and dingy. Service is nice as well. Not a bad choice for neighborhood dining. read more
