The Pavilion Indian restaurant is by far the best Indian food I've had in a long long while. The inside is clean open airy and the staff are super helpful and friendly. The dishes, oh my.. chicken pakora and vegetable pakora.. delicious. Six of each, plenty for two people as an appetizer. Our main course was chicken curry & chicken tikka masala. Fantastic. They have vegetarian, chicken, lamb offerings along with all the breads & rice. They also have vegan options and will cook your meal to your spice level. It appears that they also go a lot of carry out. We saw several people come to collect food. They too have outdoor seating on the sidewalk but we chose to sit in tonight (a little chilly). We sat at the window and had a birds eye view. All in all a great night out. read more

I ordered through DoorDash. This is the first time I've had Pavilion Indian's food. I ordered Chicken Korma, sweet Peshawari Naan, and Chaat Samosas. The order arrived hot with extra condiments and Papadum. What a pleasant surprise to receive the extras! The food is delicious! Cooked to perfection and tasty! Indian food is my favorite and I highly recommend Pavilion Indian. I should have taken photos...oops! read more

Great food! We ordered Dal Makahni, Chicken Biryanis, Naan, and Veg Samosa. It's super delicious and excellent presentation. Service was great as well! Highly recommended. read more

Very unprofessional staff- lady at the counter (very likelyowner's wife) was very unprofessional- there- don't waste your time going there to eat. There was only one client, now I understand why? For good Indian food in Hyannis go to Keshar- that's where we went and what a service and food. Pavillion India- No, No and No. read more

Local family business. Always busy for takeout. Very good portions. Would absolutely recommend !!!

Stopped there for lunch with my family before one of us had to get the ferry. We got three lunch specials (one entree and one bread order each) to share, and all of them were excellent: flavorful, well prepared, and good quantity. Service was friendly and efficient and prices were very reasonable. We will definitely stop there again if we are back in the area. Apparently the current owners only took over management very recently (May 2024), so I recommend looking at the dates on the reviews you read. read more

The raita was very good! Chicken tiki masala was very tasty, the garlic naan and a three glasses of wine good, as well! A bit pricey for the amount of food served. Portions are on the smaller side, but worth a try. read more

No seriously, where else are you going to go for remotely decent Indian? There's a place in Falmouth. Yeah, bcs I have two hours to navigate to that weird little zone of the Cape. There's a place in mall. Uuuuh huh. And then there is Pavilion. Right in Hyannis. Is the food spectacular? Eh, it's on par. They've got lots of vegetarian dishes, including a vegetarian paneer korma that is pretty damn amazing. They can adjust spiciness to your liking. I don't obsess over prices, because I want my damn Indian food. I've had some meals that were excellent and some that were pretty blah. But I've never had a terrible experience. And honestly, I love Indian food and Pavilion has a freaking monopoly around here. So I'll keep showing up. read more

Fabulous Lunch Coming from LA we make sure to stop here for the tastiest meal. The cauliflower dish is fabulous, for lunch or dinner. The garlic potato stuffed Naan is terrific as well as other dish my husband had. Look forward to coming back next time for the same dish. read more

Food was pretty good, service was okay. There were only a few tables occupied when we arrived. But I think they do a good takeout business. They are in a good location, but the inside needs a major overhaul. read more

We had dinner on last Friday night. The food was over all okay..yes not so great. We had ordered the appetizers platter, which only included 1 samosa, 2 tikkis, 2 pakoras, and were pre made but they were refried before serving. They were very greasy. Then in main course we had ordered vegetarian curry, naan and biryani. Naan was fresh. Curry was not so great. And biryani was just like pulao. We found this place on Google. Service was good but quality and quantity of food did not suffice for what we paid. I will not recommend this place. read more

Yum! I finally experienced Indian cuisine on Cape Cod! This is my favorite culinary delight and was thrilled when I learned there was place just around the corner from me. The ambience is quiet, romantic, and traditional. The service is very accommodating and personal. The food is delicious! I can't wait to go back! read more

Avoid the place if you have better choice. We ordered two things from this place when we stayed in Hyannis Inn over the weekend. The chicken biryanni rice and onion Naan. Both tasted horrible. For the rice,I had never had something totally blank and lack of flavor, I was horrified to see peas, broccoli, bells pepper in my rice. Why they did that ?? Some review said the rice tasted just like fried rice and that was actually what it is. The garlic Naan didn't tasted any better. It was dried and chewy. The whole dinner experiences were just a big disappointment. Save your money and order from the Peruvian restaurant across the street instead. You has been warned my friend read more

My friends and I had dinner here last night and were severely disappointed. Indian food is one of our favorite cuisines and we were therefore, very disappointed to find that none of the dishes were authentic to their true flavors and ingredients. The Chicken Biryani - resembled and tasted like fried rice with big chunks of onions, tomatoes, and carrots, no hint of saffron or traditional Biryani spices, the vindaloo didn't have the tangy flavor and tasted like orange paste, samosas came served on a bed of "lettuce", and the other dishes followed a similar pattern. It was a decent meal but to call it "Indian food" would be a miss. A note that the service was really great. Our service was very accommodating and allowed us to customize our drinks! So the one star is for great service and good naan! read more

This place continues to go downhill! The last two orders I had from them were pathetic. I love Indian food and they are the only Indian restaurant in this area of the Cape. Last night the vegetables were like mush, the rice flavorless and the Arita watery. Fortunately I made the main course-tandoori like chicken- myself. The owners are indifferent when I go there after over ten years of being a regular. From now on I am going off Cape for Indian food. Wish they would sell to someone who could give us a better option but I hear they own the building. read more

Worse Indian restaurant food I've ever had there was a hair in my food and the pudding was gross I don't want anyone getting food from there and I don't want anyone getting sick. read more

Best Indian food on cape. We have done both sit down and take out. Never disappointed. I love their shrimp saag. The service is friendly, professional and quick. read more

Delicious food, friendly service and a clean atmosphere. Worth the drive for a fantastic "date night in"

This is the most amazing Indian Food we have ever had! Being vegan it is hard to find a restaurant that knows their menu and how to create a wonderful experience for us. This 5 star review is for a wonderful dinner. Thank you so much. read more

Veggie samosas and a large Taj Mahal to share. Add onion and a little tamarind condiment. Yummmmm! For entrees, I got the (vegetarian) Malai Kofta and bf got Chicken Jalfrazi. Especially fantastic with Peshawari naan- the sweetness is a delicious foil for the savory sauces. I've had most of the vegetarian dishes here and I'd recommend any of them. A very good place for vegetarians!!! Good prices, great smiling service and very good food. read more

So having been to India and eaten Indian food there, as well as at many restaurants in the Pacific Northwest, it was a necessity to get Indian food while in Cape Cod. Having read so many negative reviews, I thought that they must be incorrect or highly picky regarding this restaurant. I am glad that we decided to ignore the negative reviews. I dined tonight with my parents and we ordered our favorites: Chicken Vindaloo, Chicken Mahkni of varying spice levels, and Vegetable Korma. I asked for some paneer to be added to the Veggie Korma and the waitress was kind to say it was fine, no problem. Our meal arrived within a short amount of time. Not only was the garlic naan as I would have expected, we all enjoyed our meals and the servers were kind and attentive. The Indian food was delicious and made for a lovely evening, with the flavors we expected and service that was welcoming. I recommend this restaurant to all who are looking for Indian food while on Cape Cod. read more

I have been to this place at least 10 times. It is CONSISTENTLY EXCELLENT. The Wait Staff are all attentive, efficient & gracious. I have had quite a few items from the menu. I always get the pappadamS with the relish tray. I LUV LUV LUV the green coriander sauce. Perfectly executed: lots of coriander with a savory tangy flavor. The purple Tamarind is lovely too. Slightly sweet with a soft jammy texture. The chopped pepper & onion relish is delish too. A bit on the hotter side but yummy. The Veggie Samosas are FANTASTIC. I have had the meat ones but I love the peas & potatoes in the Veggie ones. The Naan bread is delicious. Freshly prepared. A bit like Pita bread but slightly thicker. I LUV the ONION KULCHA. It's naan stuffed with sautéed onions. YUM! I have had the tandoori chicken & the tikka masala which is in a tomato curry sauce. Both fabulous. Both mild but flavorful. I have also had the chicken in spinach. That's delicious too. I always have a Kingfisher Beer which is an excellent lager. I along with many locals really enjoy this place. Whenever we want great Indian food, we ALWAYS dine at INDIAN PAVILION. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

We did a quick take out after we got off from ferry back from Nantucket. Food was good and portions were decent. We have had bigger portions than this from Indian restaurant. Naan surely was very smaller than normal. Not bad, was good to get quick fix for Indian food while on vacation read more

I love their food! Big flavors, family owned, and unlike anything else you'll get on Cape Cod. Everything is homemade and made to order. I enjoyed chicken curry, lamb kormus, chicken biryani, and Mali kofta entrees. Also, amazing garlic and plain naan. Appetizers and chutneys are all so delicious. This place deserves to be more popular. read more

******** Beware of PUBIC Hair in your food! ******** We were visiting Cape Cod from California and were pleased to find an Indian Restaurant in town. We wanted to do appetizers and go for dinner somewhere else. Since we were only ordering appetizers, we were NOT allowed to dine-in and were forced to order a take out. Seriously? My wife was already disappointed but I could not let go of a chance to eat Samosas in the Cape so I ordered Samosas for take-out. Our excitement turned cold when we found pubic hair in the samosas. We were met with aggression when we attempted to bring it to their attention. The old lady was rude and reported it to the chef (owner) who came out of the kitchen fearful and aggressive. We were offered no apologies but a refund. When I told them I would take pictures and report them, the owner snatched away the Samosas fiercely. There was only one dine-in customer (old lady) at the time so we felt isolated. The owner shamelessly threatened to call the police if we did not leave the premise. It turned out pretty ugly and we were fearful of their family. We left very disappointed, fearful vowing never visit the restaurant. I read some of other comments and I agree, the family run business is unapologetic and shameless. All we wanted was an apology - not refund or a threat to call their local police (which they said they were friends with and would take their side). They left us dismayed through intimidation. If we were locals, we would have reported them to the food inspector. Please do not eat here. The place is unhygienic and they should not be in business with their attitude. Another Indian restaurant should open up so they do not have monopoly! read more

Got take out with a handful of veggie options. Everything was tasty and good quality. It was nice of them to ask what our spice level preference was. Grateful to have them on Cape! read more

Delicious, fresh Indian cuisine at great price! Just had lunch -- eggplant curry and a lamb curry, both fabulous. The cheese pakora appetizer serves with several sauces/relishes also wonderful. I particularly enjoyed the tiny bits of fresh ginger that garnished the eggplant dish--a wonderful aroma and zesty taste. Previous several visits were similarly excellent. read more

This was one of the worst experiences I ever had for an Indian restaurant. The lady who runs the place is super rude. Food is pathetic. We sat there for 20 minutes, no service, not even asked for water. When we started giving our order, owner lady very rudely said that the order should be minimum $10, our order was already more than that, she never bothered to listen. THEY SERVE UNHYGIENIC TAP WATER. DONT EVER GO THERE. Everyone is rude, food is not at all worth the price. WORST WORST WORST PLACE read more

I go to my timeshare at The Cape every year in December...off season. I always dine here at least once. Food is excellant as is the service. It is family owned and operated. The prices are very reasonable. It is clean and priced just right. Great for solo or family or groups. Drink prices are very reasonable too. Try different items on the menu and mix and swap to savor the flavors of an awesome culinary experience. As usual order to your taste....They will comply. Make it your choice. Then...you will be hooked like I am. Enjoy the experience. Ciao..no pun intended LOL! read more

This place was great. Friendly service and delicious food. Garlic Naan is a must. Vegetable samosas were great. Loved the Veggie Korma. And Chicken Biryani. Highly recommend. read more

No longer serving brunch buffet which lowers the rating for me. The buffet was a much better way to enjoy a variety of dishes at an affordable price. Heading to golden swan otherwise. read more

This place neither serves good food nor service. Went to this place on a Friday night in the hope to grab some good dinner. Food came fast but tasted very bad. My husband could not have even one piece of chicken tikka masala and malai kofta. The malai kofta had frozen potato balls in a warm curry. I suggest don't waste your money going to this place. Instead try other restaurants away from the main street. I would have given two stars for the owner offering to replace chicken tikka masala with something else. We asked for Dal instead. But I will say even dal was not good. Based on my experience I will advice not to try Indian cuisine at small tourist places. They are generally not up to the mark. read more
