A small group of us came on an otherwise busy holiday for a late lunch. As luck would have it, a…read morelate lunch qualifies for the early bird dinner combo specials which are pretty sweet. For something like 13 euro, we each got an app, side, and main of usual portion size. Not only was the food a bargain, the quality was top notch. I started with the chicken tikka, which had just the right level of kick to it. I moved onto the prawns bhuna, which had me wanting to lick the plate clean. Since I'm not a big naan fan, I decided to go with a green salad as my side. It was alright. However, someone in my group decided to go with sweet naan, which may have changed my opinion on naan in general. Since we were all hungry, we didn't share much so I can't comment on the other options other than to say everyone cleaned their plates!

Upon walking up to Jewel in the Crown, you will find a friendly smile to walk you to a table inside. The restaurant is usually bustling so don't expect a 5-minute meal. You will be given a nicely sized menu featuring an amazing early bird special page which I highly recommend. The offerings include all of the traditional indian fare and the staff are more than happy to accommodate requests as well. So tuck into a nice plate of tikka masala or nibble on some naan and have a delicious meal for a great price.

We have been here on a number of ocassions with a variety of friends and always go for the mixed tandoori starter plate.

We wrapped up our tour along the Irish coast with our final nights in Dublin and decided to have…read moredinner at Pickle. It ended up being the best meal of our entire trip. We started with the Duck and Venison appetizer. The duck was incredibly tender with perfectly crisp skin, while the venison samosa had a crispy exterior, flavorful filling, and just the right amount of heat. For our mains, my wife ordered the Tandoori Chicken with basmati rice, and I had the Junglee Maans with Dilli Wala Butter Naan. The tandoori chicken was cooked perfectly, beautifully seasoned, and paired wonderfully with the fresh red onions, rice, and naan. The Junglee Maans was the standout dish of the night--tender, flavorful, and coated in a rich, spicy sauce that had me scraping my plate clean. The butter naan was the perfect companion for soaking up every bit of it. We finished with the Raspberry Sorbet, served with fresh strawberries, raspberries, and white chocolate sauce. It was light, refreshing, and the perfect ending to an incredible meal. From start to finish, every dish was outstanding. Pickle was easily our favorite restaurant of the trip, and it's the first place we'll return to the next time we're in Dublin.

(Restaurants take note and hire a friendly person as a host) The rest of the service was kind and attentive. Food was good, albeit too much for a single diner. I would recommend for a try if you are into Indian food.

This is my first visit to Ravi's Kitchen. Wow!…read more I eat a lot of Indian food, but the food and service was some of the best I have had. Tonight I had the lamb Roganjosh and the Okra. This meal was spot on, and the spicing was exceptional: there was a great balance of spice, heat, and flavour. The fat level was quite pleasant and there was beautiful use of green cardimom pod in the Roganjosh, and black cardimom pod in the Okra. The lamb was soft and flaked apart nicely under my fork without being dry. The service was quick, and polite, and I was able to walk in without a reservation. The place is spotless, clean, well furnished and has some extra touches in place including nice woodwork, and woven place mats and special cushions to sit on. Great experience. 5 stars!

I wanted a dish with a little heat and the haldi chili prawns fit the bill. I used the rice to absorb the finger licking sauce.

Even the House Black Dal is thick and hearty with smooth, warm spices. My Lamb Chettinad is just incredible. A full game, peppery curry, bold and spicy with a bit of coconut to keep it smooth. My kids don't leave a single piece of naan uneaten, and even the roti is happily noshed by a kid that won't try anything new. The food is delicious, and the restaurant itself is also just so beautiful. The dining room is done in a rustic farmhouse style, with long tables and bench seats, perfect for a family to sit and share. Really beautiful meal at a very nice restaurant. I can't believe we randomly picked something so good!

We ordered one naan with shallots (not on the menu). Loved it! Ask for a side of their mint yogurt sauce, it's excellent! Would highly recommend this restaurant. Not happy that they charge €3 credit card processing. Not cool, guys! Location is great as its a 15 minute walk from the Temple Bar area. Mom and pop sort of restaurant with a very friendly and accommodating staff. Ambiance is a bit, meh but we weren't there for the look. We were there for the awesome Indian Food.

It's an absolute bargain as it's HUGE. Actually much bigger than the ones you get in India.

The staff were friendly and approachable and the place itself is clean, tidy and spacious.

Upping Indie Spice to 5 stars is an easy decision - they have been consistently excellent, and the…read moreeffect is showing. The place was nicely busy the last time we went along - making one of this wonderful Indians only flaws (the too quiet large dining area) disappear. The service is decent, not exceptional, but that is not why you go to Indie Spice. You go for the fantastic examples of classic Indian restaurant dishes - their Balti is nicely spicey, their Bhuna extremely tasty. I have yet to have a bad meal either via take-out or eat-in. The Naan bread, when ordered in the restaurant, is fabulous - perfectly crispy and so tasty (garlic is my favorite) and there is a mini sampler for you to determine which you prefer. In general I judge an Indian restaurant largely on the quality of the dishes I mentioned above and one other thing - the lamb. It is excellent in Indie, not fatty in the least, perfectly cooked. One of my favorite local restaurants by far, and I am not one to normally crave Indian food.

My friend and I were looking for something nice for lunch on a Saturday and walk past Indie Spice…read more Luckily my friend has been there before as I don't think I would have been tempted otherwise. As the restaurant is on the first first floor there is nothing to see when you look through the windows of the door. And it didn't look too inviting. But as I said: I am glad we went. I was very impressed my their lunch deal that they have Monday - Saturday. €8.95 for two courses. Another reason why I was sceptical - it's just not the typical price in Dublin. But I got very pleasently surprised. The portion was fresh, very tasty and sufficient. Whilst I'm not an expert in indian food I have it occasionally and found the balance of spices very good. We treated ourselves to a glass of wine. I went for Sauvignon Blanc and again was nicely impressed by the quality. Inclusive tip the bill came to €15 per person which was a very nice experience being used to (but not liking) the Dublin prices. The staff was friendly and we were well looked after. So I'm sure I'll be back. Oh, and not to be forgotten: I was very impressed with their "stair elevator" - sorry I don't know the correct name for it. But to make is possible for wheelchair users or anyone with difficulties getting up and down those steps it's a great alternative if there is no lift in the building.
