We went last year and tried this restaurant and we have been wanting to go again. It was as good this year as it was last year. We started with 2 delicious gin cocktails with basil that were delicious. We then had Banana Chaat with pomegranate seeds. It was delicious. We ordered Naan Bread which was a little salty but still delicious. We ordered the pork axone which was crispy smoked pork belly, fermented soybean, green chili, lime. We also ordered the Chingri Malai Curry which was shrimp in a turmeric and Coconut milk gravy, ghee, toasted red chilies. Both were so tasty. We can not wait to go back.
Normally would not go to an establishment that isn't cooked by a native but surprisingly they did a great job. The banana chaat was delicious and perfect sweet and savory. The beef nahari was not my thing at all, beef was sort of tender but the sauce was too much cardamom or whatever taste like anise. the shrimp malai curry was good. Neither came with rice so added that. Shrimp fried rice for kids was just rice and some shrimp and no flavor. The naan garlic cheese naan was nice and the appam went well with shrimp but wouldn't do that again as it's just not my flavor. The tamarind soda was fantastic and brought me back to Guatemala. Hard to judge the place as the menu changes a lot so even if not the best experience it could change. It was also hot and stuffy inside towards back.
Went on my friend's birthday, it was very unique dinning experience, the menu was short and top favourites in indian culture ! Service was excellent too !
My goodness! Never been to India but the Nola native has brought India to the masses. His cuisine exudes high intelligence: knowledge of flavor and texture using common US ingredients. You, like in Ratatouille, are transported to the street stall of Mumbai, and eating like a local, are allowed to experience the warmth and hospitality of the Region in every bite taken on the Algiers side of the River. Memorable.
Not sure why I don't already have a review on this place. This place is a gem. A must try if you haven't before. One of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans. Delicious food that always comes out fresh and hot. Every dish I've ever had here has always been mind blowingly good. Different from any other Indian dishes I've had elsewhere. Service is always friendly and the space is bright and inviting.
I had brunch with a party of 6 here, and with advance notice, they were able to accommodate. Everything was delicious and this is what we had: * mango sodas, hot chai, tuktuk cocktail * banana chaat and fried bread stuffed with paneer * fried chicken (not pictured) and butter chicken * pork belly * shrimp * eggplant Perfectly balanced seasoning, delectable sauces, moist proteins, and relaxed atmosphere. Cross the damn bridge!
Located in New Orlean's second-oldest neighborhood far from the French Quarter is a small Indian restaurant on a block full of single-family homes. The chefs aren't Indian. After working in the food industry, the partners traveled through Indian, inspired by new-to-them flavors. Upon returning, they created a pop-up that now has a brick-and-mortar worth visiting. On a trip to New Orleans, my wife, seven-year-old daughter, mother-in-law, and I dined at Plume Algiers at 6 p.m. on a Tuesday evening in April. Here's our experience. 1) Food: Don't expect your usual Indian dishes like butter chicken or tikka masala. The menu is small, but that's because every dish is thoughtful and fresh. To feed the four of us, we got the fried rice with chicken for our daughter. We also got the banana chaat, chingri malai shrimp, cabbage moilee, raj kochari, green chutney, tamarind chutney, appam, two servings of naan, and milk cake. Literally, every dish was scrapped clean and every dish was a winner- truly. The banana chaat is very unique and the banana works with the coconut, yogurt, tamarind, and green chutney. The chingri malai shrimp was the perfect amount of spicy and the sauce went well with the naan and appam. 2) Service: It was attentive and kind. One of the owners took our orders and walked us through the menu. It turns out she grew up near where we live in Washington, D.C. 3) Space: It's small, but inviting. The walls are decorated with murals and the kitchen is open. Once done, go to the front to settle the bill. We found easy street parking right in front. 4) Price: For a feast that fed all four of us, our bill was $165.70, including a 20%+ tip. 5) Drinks: We ordered one of each of their cocktails. They were strong!
Excellent Indian food, at the intersection of gourmet and hole-in-the wall. The menu and wine list are short, photocopied together double-sided on 8 1/2" by 11" paper so it can and does change frequently. If there is AC, you might not notice, but that is OK because the food will have your attention. The service is friendly and attentive. Our waitress recognized us even though we are only in town a few times a year. The wine list is short, but varies from the usual offerings, so trust the staff's recommendations. Bottom line: cross the Mississippi and experience something special.
I have eaten at this place a couple times now and can attest it being 5 stars every single time. The menu changes but the flavor and satisfaction never disappoints. I actually tell everyone about this restaurant and have brought several people there who all have brought other people back. The owners work the place and are insanely passionate about the food experience for their customers. This is a unique experience that you will not regret. The ambiance is welcoming, relaxed, and comfortable. I can't say enough good about this place. I look up reviews to help me decide on both where to eat and what to eat and I am a person who usually needs to already pick out my meal before I get somewhere but i can't do that with Plume yet it doesn't matter because everything they make is incredible. They are honest about their foods and can help you choose your items based off your taste. They are extremely helpful. Please just try it and enjoy!! And get the fermented coconut pancake thing, sooo good.
Quaint tasty attentive Surprise me Plume was opened 4th of July 2023 I ordered the cheese naan very tasty The lentils were good too My sister ordered this poof naan ball the you break open with a fork to eat. This was fun My nephew ordered some kind of black spices covered chicken That was very savory You can order using the app or wait for an attendant Very authentic tasty and fresh Worth the adventure
Really fantastic, fresh, creative approach to Indian. Run by an adorable couple who visited India and learned to cook it. Generous portions. Delicious naan and appetizers. Beef dish very savory and rich. Braised curry cabbage with coconut and peanuts. Really ingenious preparation. For summer they plan to just have a brunch menu. They have picnic tables outside. Lots of take out orders. Alcohol served. Don't worry about the drive or the neighborhood. It's fine and well worth it!
Plume feels like sitting down for dinner at a friend's place and being served one of the best meals of your life!! Doesn't matter what you order, it will be tasty! I have tried half the menu over the past year and have Never been disappointed!! Banana chaat, butter chicken, pork axone, Rista (lamb meatballs in saffron sauce), khaati rolls, garlic chili cheese naan (sans spicy chilis for me- those tiny things pack some BIG heat!!) and cool down with homemade mango soda or a unique cocktail. Cross the dayum bridge!! Take some time to look at the amazing murals on the walls and say hi to the owners. read more
Got dinner to go a couple days ago. Tried the pork belly dish with a side of rice, chili garlic cheese naan and the coconut limeade. Everything was absolutely delicious! The spice level of the pork belly was perfect. Customer service was good and they have lots of seating for dine in. read more

Plume has been on my to do list for a long while. I finally went on Christmas day, and I was immediately angry. With myself. For not crossing the damn bridge a long time ago. This suddenly, and unexpectedly became my Christmas day tradition, the moment the Raj was put on the table. Holy Christmas tradition Batman! Presentation, unreal. Flavor, unbelievable. Repeat order-ability level 10. We dined lite, because we were at a Christmas gathering earlier in the day. We ordered a chicken wrap to go (to give to the unhoused in Jackson Square) and a few other things. Everything we ordered was freaking textbook awesome. A friend of ours was supposed to join us, but she missed it. She was so sick of hearing how good it was, and how much we loved it, that we went again just a few days later. We ordered a lot off the menu on this visit, but that Raj.... oh my. The service was really perfect. We ordered the wraps again, and because there were three of us this time, they offered to cut them in thirds. Such a nice touch, that we hadn't even considered when ordering. After being twice in a short period, this will be our annual christmas tradition, and, we expect to go many more times in between. I'm still dreaming of that delightful food. I also cannot believe I forgot to take more photos. I promise to update soon. read more

So delicious, always as good to look at as to eat. There's an unusual variety of dishes that will hit every palate. Nothing so outrageous that it can't be enjoyed by the whole table. read more
BEST Indian food in New Orleans. Hands down. When I finally made it over to Plume, I couldn't believe I had been missing out on something so amazing for so long. Don't come here expecting to get your typical, basic Indian dishes like tikka masala, butter chicken, etc. Go to Plume to be taken on an Indian culinary adventure. There was barely anything on the menu that I had heard of before, but for me, that's right up my alley. We got the Raj Kachori, Shrimp Kaathi Roll, Mulai Kattiya Taniyam (and Naan of course). Everything was EXQUISITE--Absolutely nothing like I had ever tasted before-- and had an explosion of flavor with every bite. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Plume Algiers is definitely one of my favorite New Orleans restaurants now. read more

Plume Algiers is definitely worthy of a trip to Algiers. The freshness and tastiness is just as good now as the first time I ate there. read more
Love the vibe in this place. The owners are super friendly and helpful with ordering. The food is always delicious but as of late I'm obsessed with their braised lamb. Y'all... If you haven't been here yet you're seriously missing out. #CrossTheDamnBridge Beat company slogan. read more

Service was great. Atmosphere & Ambiance also great.... Everyone there seemed to really enjoy their meals. The Chia Tea was fantastic. Alas .. my friend and I did not like ours..I guess we ordered wrong dish. It was s'posed to be a Curry / ginger (?) fish..... I couldn't taste the curry At All. And fish was Fishy Fishy tasting ....perhaps it Was fresh but it didn't taste good. Fishy not in a good way. Not sure if I'd go back ; maybe for the Tea. read more

New Orleans has a dynamic culinary scene, to be sure, but the Indian subcontinent has not been particularly well-represented in my experience. However, this place popped up and is both a quintessential New Orleans kind of place and a worthy gustatory experience. It's a little shop in a residential area in Algiers, with a couple of indoor tables that were available when I visited, and a couple of picnic tables outside. What appeared to be a husband and wife couple were splitting all the duties, and I saw no evidence of any other employees, perhaps explaining the limited hours. The rotating menu was written on a chalkboard, but is available for online ordering as well. Hardly any of the choices were things that you'd see at a typical Indian restaurant. Don't get me wrong; a channa masala is generally among the best meals in town, regardless of the town, but here my choices included a mung bean salad flavored with mustard oil and a stir-fry of finely shaved carrots and coconut. A freshly cooked appam was useful for mopping up my carrots, and a tamarind soda added a contrary flavor note. Everything was fresh and delicious. The owners seem to be not Indian, but big fans of regional Indian cuisine, which puts them right on level with me. If you're downtown and looking for an excuse to hop on the ferry to Algiers, let this be your destination. read more

Loved this restaurant - very authentic. Their options were a joy to find! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Appam on the menu. Appam are rather unique rice pancakes using coconut milk made in southern India, mostly in Kerela and Mangalore. They were delicious. The cilantro lime fish was flavorful and moist. They even had Fenny - an alcohol drink made in Goa by fermenting cashew fruit. It was truly an amazing find. Next time I visit NOLA, I'll definitely return in anticipation to Plume Algiers for such great food options! Ambience was great and service was friendly and prompt. read more

We went. We ate our faces off. We shared a bunch of things. Everything was tremendous. Do NOT skip ordering the Raj Kachori puff pastry magicness. Everything was super creative and delicious and my only regret is that I don't live closer so I can't come all the time. read more
Literally loved everything about this experience. We were in a mixed group of people who had never tried Indian so they were nervous. We shared everything at our table and everyone loved every dish. The garlic cheese naan was sinfully delicious. The couple owners were amazing and had great selections as we put it all in their hands. The prices were amazingly affordable. I cannot recommend more highly that you visit this place when visiting Louisiana. read more
Plume was absolutely delicious! As someone who has grown up in an ethnic North Indian household, I have very high standards for Indian Food (or any type of fusion twist off of it). My friends and I ordered a variety of dishes including the branzino special (a new dish that they recently added on their menu), the chicken kaathi rooms, and shrimp pakora. The shrimp pakora had two really interesting sauces with one being more pickle based and another being more curry based. The aapams were very fluffy and made perfectly. Lastly, I loved the combination of the mushroom and paneer naan. It was so unique and flavorful. I definitely hope to come back once again in the near future! read more

We are visiting and decided to try here based off of Resy searches. I am SO GLAD we did. Everyone was welcoming and nice, and the food was to die for. My husband and I both got the shrimp ghee roast and got our son veggie fried rice. We got naan and it was the best I have ever had, so we then got the cheese naan and it was mouthwateringly delicious. We are only here 2 more days but are already considering coming back before we leave. If you're not sure about trying them.... DO IT. read more
Cross the damn bridge they say and you should. If for nothing else, for their food. So true to themselves, these curries are delicious and I am in awe of the owners who are putting in so much effort. The best naan I have had in America in 38 years. The taste and the texture was spot on. Don't get fooled by the exterior or the neighborhood. It's worth the drive and the experience. read more
