Food: Visited here because we liked how the menu included allergy information. However, ordering a nut free dish and informing the waitress of an allergy at the table does not limit cross contamination in the kitchen. I ended up sick after ordering the Jalandari. I wish I had done more research beforehand because there is another review complaining of the same danger. Service: Server was kind. The food took about 35-40 min on a Tuesday afternoon. read more

I love trying new Indian restaurants and had been looking forward to trying this spot for a while. It definitely lived up to the hype. The food here is absolutely incredible! read more

Love this place so much! If you aren't super familiar with Indian food, ask them about their street food options to start out. The Mumbai tacos and puri are my favorite flavor bombs. After that, the curries are rich and vibrant. It's a small place, so we go early to avoid a crowd. The family that owns the place is so kind and helpful as well. This place also does specialized drinks, so be adventurous! read more

This place is so cool. I came here with friends and we sat in the area with the cushions and pillows. We had a blast. And we loved all the food we ate. I honestly was having too much fun to pay attention to what was what but I didn't dislike anything I tried. I also would love to come back and try some more things! This was a great experience and me and my friends all loved it.

The only thing I need warn about this place is to make sure you have time to wait. We came right when they opened for lunch and probably waited 20-25 minutes for all our food. HOWEVER, that being said... it's worth the wait!! Everything was amazing and the dining area is very nice, great atmosphere for this restaurant. I ordered paneer indori, which was so good. That gravy would be great to take home and put on some biscuits too! I also had the curry roll which was probably my favorite. It had a lot of flavor and fulfilling I cannot remember what my husband ordered specifically, but he had to get chicken as they were out of goat when we went. They also toned down the spice a bit for him and it was perfect. My son ordered tacos and they were delicious for being "just tacos." We also shared the butter bread and cheese bread. The cheese was by far better! I wish we had time to have desserts, next time. I'd recommend this place to anyone! read more

This Indian food is excellent. They know what they are doing. Naan is perfect. Chicken makhani. Delicious. Eating Indian food in California, I missed authenticity in Memphis. Not any more. read more

Everything is fantastic! The butter chicken is fantastic. The tacos are fantastic. Service is a little slow but also fantastic.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. This is way more authentic than your usual Indian restaurant. Even the dishes are beautiful with a water pitcher on your table. Our waitress was top-notch! I'll be back soon. read more

I hate to be the one, but... This restaurant has a gorgeous interior, interesting menu (and the food is delicious!) but the service is abysmal!! We got there at noon on Sunday, directly after church. There was one 8 top when we walked in, and that was all the entire time we were there. We started with Channai 65, delicious cauliflower. At least 4 things my husband wanted to order were not available, and the lowest spice level the curry is available in is hot. This must be nuclear, because the medium is HOT. So we ordered the Aloo Gobi for me, and my husband settled in the tandoori chicken Bindi and an order of butter naan. Mine arrived and was really good. I had a bite thinking my husband's was coming out directly after. He told me to eat , and I did, until I had eaten what I could. Still no Bindi. The server never stopped back, or we would have asked for his dish. Finally we got her and asked her about the Bindi. She said she was waiting for us to eat the Aloo Gobi, assuming we were sharing everything. What we shared instead was an extreme dislike for an otherwise promising restaurant. read more

Excellent food and service. The kurma and kebabs were outstanding. We will be back:

Excellent choice of food and drinks, and very friend staff, always ready to go the extra mile

Ambiance was fantastic. Food was delicious. However it did take a long time to come out. Service was good! They also had a fun birthday surprise during my visit!!! read more

All I can say is if you like Indian food, GO!! Make a reservation and get ready for excellent service, delicious food with your desired level of spice! Indian spices are such an explosion of spices in your mouth and I find them quite tasty. If something is too spicy order the Riata side and it will mellow the spice. I can't wait to return and try something else! Update: went back the next day bc I introduced my son to it with my leftovers and let me tell you that it heated up perfectly and he loved every bit. I ordered a few other items; the soup, cauliflower dish and chicken manti and it was all super tasty!! We loved every bit of what I brought home. I will definitely frequent this restaurant when I'm in Memphis!! Btw the cocktails looked amazing!! ALSO! I was in a rush to pick up my to go order and left my wallet and didn't realize it until I was 1.5 hours away and called them. I called and they had it in safe keeping and was returned to my husband untouched. read more

Delicious food and cozy interior . Clean. They have a bar but never are able to make cocktails . Never seen anyone sitting at it. Would give it five stars if they had cocktails! read more

Service slayed, food ate down. I yearn to go back. Fr though really loved the wait staff and the food was to die for. Definitely recommend!!

Good atmosphere. Food is different. Not like other restaurants. Don't expect typical sweet butter chicken. They have various regional Indian foods- which was a nice choice. read more

this place SUCKED. They refused to give us chai. CHAI. The tables were dirty and the restrooms were not clean. This employe, i think her name is ashu or something, she was the WORST. We barely got food and got charged $130, this place was overprice. I would NOT recommend this place for visitor. read more

Excellent food and excellent staff, very helpful. Definitely give it a try if you're thinking about it.

Best new restaurant find of the year! Friendly and helpful staff, delicious and flavorful food, and lovely ambiance and decor. We will be back soon! read more

the owner supposedly takes the tips you leave and pockets them - not cool! The amazing servers deserve better.

Service was slow but this place is a banger. Full bar too. Tough to find around these parts!!! 6 different naan breads to choose from. We went with the onion naan and the garlic naaan. Superb. read more

This is our third time to come here. The food is very flavorful and well made and fresh. It is one of the best Indian restaurants we have ever eaten at. And we have friends from India who recommended this place months ago and it took us awhile to get here but it is very worth it. The prices are decent. The service is good. We liked the butter chicken as probably the best one we have ever had. The naan is very fresh and perfectly tasty. The ambience is very nice with some couches and Indian decor. I like how they serve the food in clay pots and the drinks in brass cups and carafes. I would only suggest to add more egg to your Briyani if someone orders that. Add ice to the carafe so water is served cold not warm. I would also recommend to offer to pack up to go items as it is cumbersome to pack up your own leftovers and part of the experience is that someone does it for you. Especially at a tiny table. Overall it is now one of my favorite restaurants and I cannot wait to recommend again to someone else. read more

Great find in Memphis. Excellent goat biryani- so fresh Excellent gobi Manchurian - so crispy Palak saag- awesome Roti- wow feeling Amritsari kabab- so fresh and soft It's a must visit - great service read more

The food is absolutely amazing! We dined in on Friday evening at 5:30 and the place is beautiful. We were seated and greeted. We reviewed the menu and wanted a mix of dishes. It was all so fresh and hot and every dish has a spice level. We started with chicken tacos, spicy and when I say good, that is an understatement! It wasn't too spicy but a good spicy. The chicken was fresh and the flavorful. Lamb balls (like ground beef meatballs) buttered chicken and goat. All dishes came with rice that was fragrant and super fresh. Naan bread comes onion, garlic or plain so we enjoyed garlic and again, great choice. I did not eat a full lamb ball because the taco filled me up but I wanted to taste it all. Buttered chicken was rich and flavorful. Both lamb and chicken were in a beautiful rich gravy, omg to die for good. I don't eat goat but my bestie said it was lovely. The cost was on par and did not break the bank. My total was $83. My apologies that I didn't use the traditional names for the dishes enjoyed. The staff was patient, very nice and engaging. Service was great! read more

Passing by Memphis for a lunch stop. The mango lasi is so good!!! I love it!!! The service is 10/10.

Swagath Memphis Indian Food was truly impressive. The staff was professional and welcoming, and the food was incredibly fresh--hands down the tastiest Indian food we've had in West Memphis. They are transparent about their commitment to serving only fresh food made with fresh ingredients and no preservatives, and you can absolutely taste the difference. We had the chicken makhani and chicken 65, both packed with bold, authentic flavors and cooked perfectly. The garlic naan and cheese naan were standout items--rich, warm, and indulgent. The mango lassi was refreshing and balanced, the perfect complement to the meal. Every dish felt decadent, flavorful, and thoughtfully made. Dining here is not just a meal, but a full experience. Easily the best Indian food in West Memphis. read more

I was hopeful from all of the positive reviews. The service was good but the food was not. The music is also terrible.

Excellent food, good beer selection, nice waitstaff. Waiter may be the owner. Butter chicken was superb.

What better way to test out how a restaurant will be than to go on a holiday? We went on Christmas Day right before they closed and everything we had tasted excellent. Service for refills was a bit slow but it was a holiday so we will give grace for that. The food was very fresh and tasted like it was made from scratch. The sauces and garlic naan were great. The restaurant is a mix of modern and traditional decor. Would love to visit during the day. There were some strong fragrance plug ins throughout the restaurant but they unplugged them at our request (I'm allergic). Why try to cover up the aromatic smells of great food? We are looking forward to coming back. We have tasted a lot of Indian food in Memphis and I have to say that this is the best so far. read more

The service was amazing. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. We recommend the chicken kabobs to start the meal.

Excellent food and service. I especially enjoyed the Indori-Malai Kofta. I will definitely come back!

I can't rate this restaurant because for the SECOND time, we went for lunch - noonish, and the place was empty. (not a great sign at mealtime.) We again, just like the last time, waited a few moments to be greeted. Nothing. It is always an excellent experience at Half Shell. I'd recommend it instead. read more

Absolutely delicious! Everything was so fresh and perfectly cooked. We hope this place continues to succeed!

Just passing through on a trip and had tried the place next door and thought I'll try the Indian restaurant the next day. I came back and I'm so glad I did! It was AMAZING! I tried their soup of the day which was a lamb broth "Mutton Bone Soup," chicken Daryaganj Makhani (butter chicken), Indian Tandoori Roti naan and for dessert I got their mango lassi. Food was hot and spicy and service was superb! I definitely have this place saved and I'm ready to go back! read more
