We came here after a visit at the zoo down the street. The dosa and chicken tikka were okay. My lamb biryani was meh, and had a pit of some kind in the rice (maybe a cherry pit). The mango lassi was overly sweet, and the salted lassi made our 9yo's face contort into a shape I didn't realize was possible. It also took quite a long time to get our order; we saw a lot of people who must have been delivery drivers picking up order after order as we waited about 25-30 minutes for our food. This wasn't great given we were the only customers actually eating at the location. The staff themselves were quite nice, but ultimately I need to score on the food and the time it took to receive it, both of which have room for improvement. read more

As a Pakistani who has grown up eating Indian/Pakistani food, I think I would recommend this place. We came on a Friday night, and the trailer park it's in has plenty of seating with fans/mist/shade to help us stay cool. We ordered chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, chooza kebab, vegetable samosas, and butter naan. Overall I would say the food is great for Austin standards. I grew up in Houston and am used to the quality of Aga's and this place isn't quite there. I'm also used to halal meat and I don't believe this place uses halal meat so it's a little more tough than expected for the chicken tikka and butter chicken curries. But as we know there aren't many great options for Indian food in Austin, so with that being said I would recommend this spot. As a desi, if you're ever missing home food then this is the spot for you. Plenty of options and a large variety beyond the basic options that we picked lol. read more

See all

This places always amazes me with their food and service . I usually come here for their amritsari chole and it's always been so close to what we used to get back home.. today we tried the goat rojangosh chicken kurma and chicken tikka.. and except the kurma everything was tasty. Their tawa paranthas were yummy with desi ghee all over it! The only feedback is that they can go a little easy on the salt on some dishes. The service can tend to be longer due to a lot of crowd but the team ensures you are taken care of read more

This was a decent place for Indian food, sadly it has gone completely down hill. Had dinner ordered from them this saturday for guests. And it was a complete embarrassment. We ended up getting dominos. We ordered Dal makhni, which had so much salt that it was inedible. Malai kofta tasted stale. Peshawari naan and garlic naan was raw. Paneer tikka in paneer tikka salad was under cooked u could taste the raw marinade. Mushroom tikka was extremely hot spicy despite requesting medium. This place has now been struck out for us, sad to see a good food truck with such a nice ambience ruined. read more

This is a new food truck in the same complex as Manoli's. We had actually only come by for dessert but the waft of their cooking got us curious about this new food option. The menu is quite large with North Indian and Indian Chinese food items. The order took some time to be prepared because each one was made to order but the daal was really good and I look forward to trying more items soon. read more

The Indian Flames - Indian Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is one of the few Indian food trucks that is open all day as most only open in the afternoon/evening. They have a very large menu which I was surprised for a food truck. I had amazing paneer makhani and garlic naan which was very flavorful. I was told the kebab was very flavorful as well. There was ample seating outside although it was hot they had some fans running. If you want good Indian food def check this place out. read more

Amazing Indian food! Chicken tikka masala, tandoori chicken, curries, vegetable fried rice. All so good. Definitely recommend. 10/10

I really wanted to love this place. The ambiance in the food park was lovely. We waited 35 mins. for our food. We ordered off of the vegetarian menu and were disappointed by the quality of the food. The tofu in the tofu tikka masala was undercooked and didn't have any flavor, the vegetable curry was sour, and the veggie spring rolls were little egg rolls that seemed like the frozen ones from Costco. They tried to give us ketchup instead of tamarind sauce with them. I was disappointed. Maybe the meat options are tastier. read more

Pros - they put hard work in making dishes.. Cons - 1) Extremely pricey for a food truck. their dishes are even more expensive than restaurants.. 2) Taste is not that authentic.. Likely their chefs are not that good and have no experience in cooking authentic north indian food.. read more

Indian flames has THE best chicken tikka masala I've ever had in Austin. The chicken is extremely tender, no dryness at all and packed with flavor. The garlic naan was chewy and very garlicky. After the first bite, I immediately thought about ordering it again tomorrow lol. The food truck park is amazing especially if you have energetic children as there's a playground and a lot of open space to run around! read more

Excellent menu and the food was delicious. We walked up and waited for a bit but the atmosphere was charming. It's a sweet spot.

Tried Indian Flames today with my friend, and the food was amazing! The dahi bhalla was very good and perfectly sweet, and the pani puri was just awesome. Great flavors and authentic taste -- really good Indian food! read more

The Indian Flames - Buffet was awesome mummhwa love it. - Indian Near Me - Austin, Texas

Highly arrogant and rude behavior of the staff! I really used to love the place but the service has gone really bad!

I had THE best lamb biryanis ever. All my friends enjoyed their dishes as well. Check them out their truck at Oak Hill Social. Delightful!!! read more

I LOVE this place! I have had a lot of Indian food all over the country and by far, this is the best. There are so many things to eat and enjoy. The menu is huge and is not only Indian fare, but also Indo-China cuisine. For anyone that has only had the standard Saag-Paneer or Aloo Ghobi, this place will blow you away. They do have some standard dishes. I ordered the goat tikka masala and was blown away! The textures, spices and flavors melted into such delight that I could not share with my friend. Only down side, if its busy, the wait will be long read more

My girlfriend and I love Indian Flames! Everything is delicious, and they're so nice! Butter chicken and veggie momos are my fave, and they have various chutneys. My girlfriend loves the seafood curries. You can choose your spice level. Mild, medium, hot, and Indian hot. I started with mild, which has almost no heat, and now medium is my go-to because it has the perfect amount of heat for me. The garlic and chili cheese naans are good as well as the samosas. You can't go wrong here! read more

Got the Flames Special Chicken curry and a plain naan. It was not good. Not much meat on the bones of the chicken and the gravy, and the meat, didn't have much flavor. I also got several pieces of small bone fragments in my mouth and I didn't even have that many bites. The aromas from the truck smelled really good, but food was disappointing. read more

In my opinion, this is the best indian food in Austin! It is consistent and delicious with a wide range of options. the space is lovely and great for date night or hanging out :). the staff is also lovely!! 10/10 recommend this place read more

We ordered vegetarian food. It was very yummy and delicious. There was a lot of flavor in the food. They took little bit longer for our order, but it was worth the wait, since everything was cooked really fresh. They offer a lot on their menu. Would definitely recommend this place. read more

Great food, friendliest service. So glad to have this place close by. Perfect for a family lunch out.

This place has been in our "too lazy to cook" rotation for a while and we've never had a bad experience. Our usuals are paneer pasanda, malai kofta and saag paneer (grateful for abundant vegetarian options). We always order ahead and everything is ready for pick up on time, piping hot and delicious. Usually get a few meals out of each order. read more

The food was fresh, ordered chicken biriyani and it didn't have much chicken in it. However the flavor was very good. The portion was big. They have pagers which was nice. I was able to wait in my car. I would come back if I was in the area. read more

Chicken tikka masala was some of the best I've ever had! Will definitely be returning for that. Chicken kebabs were very strong in ginger and I wasn't a fan. Mango lassi was also just OK. read more

My fave food is Indian. My friend had us all go here. My son & I got dosa's with paneer. My husband's dish was good. My two friends dishes were good. Her dosa looked light and fluffy and freshly cooked. She said there was not enough potatoes in it. Our 2 dosa's took a long time to cook. Having never been there before, I was dismayed to see they serve many items in Styrofoam. I spoke to the man at the front who was very friendly and he showed me the little plastic containers and said the dosa's would be served in foil. It seemed we had a bit of a communication problem but it seemed cleared up. Our food arrived and each dosa was in its own Styrofoam container. I did not want to say anything because nothing could be prevented at that point, and so just took the food and went to eat it. The dosa's were hard, dark, not fluffy, the paneer was cut in little matchstick pieces and they were firm like dried out fruit leather. It was not a good experience. I should have returned them but did not feel like it, being polite and mostly southern US in culture, we vote with our wallets often and so won't go back. The green sauce was supposedly coconut with cilantro my friend said, but it tasted rancid and not like cilantro. The gravy in the little plastic container for the dosa was exceptional and the red sauce for it was quite good. My best guess as to what happened as a cook myself is someone ordered them and they sat there a long time and then when I ordered them, they tried to reheat them and then served them or they simply over cooked them, then kept them sitting there for 20 minutes and then served them. I dunno, the mystery of the hard little pieces of paneer... not going back. read more

Love their goat tikka masala, garlic naan, and mango lassi. Always my go-to items with plenty of meat in the tikka masala and professional service. Glad to have this place in our neighborhood! read more

Delicious and great service! Ordered chicken tikka masala and loved it. Great food truck and friendly staff.

This may be one of the best Indian spots in Austin, the staff was very nice and patient with our orders and the food was absolutely delicious. Food came out very quickly. They have lots of options for food and drinks. Go check them out! read more

The food from here was amazing I ordered the chicken tikka masala, I haven't had good Indian food since before I moved away from St. Louis MO. The service is great they ask if you would like your food spicy or how much spice and is made fresh to order, another great this to order is the butter naan it's great to dip and scoop up your food with and adds great flavor. 10/10 we will be back. read more

I heard about Indian Flames from a friend at work who raved about the food there, and it lived up to the hype! The menu looks amazing and the staff had some excellent recommendations. Service was incredible. The food was outstanding. It would take me the rest of my life to eat my way through their huge menu, but I'm definitely going to try! read more

I generally don't write reviews on yelp but this place is hidden gem. Every this was delicious. Specially panner tikka.

Food was really good and the service incredible. I loved the garlic and onion naan. Chicken tandoori is a must

Having lived in Hackney, London in my youth, I've tasted lots of Indian food. Indian Flames is the best Indian food I've ever had outside England. Everything was tasty and freshly made. The Lamb Karahi was to die for! Today was our first visit to Indian Flames. I'm sure it will be the first of many. My compliments to the chef. read more

As good as Indian food gets in Austin and they serve generous portions. I always leave content and full.

I had the Samosa Chat twice. I really enjoyed it or I wouldn't have gotten it a second time. The outdoor seating area is very pleasant. And as a bonus you can get desert at Manolis! read more

By far the best Indian food I've ever had, hands down. Consequently my favorite restaurant!

Hands down the best food in south Austin. Every person I've recommended Indian Flames, tries it, and keeps going back. My personal favorites are the Shrimp Tikka Masala and the garlic naan. Service is excellent, everyone there is gracious and accommodating. Highly recommend. read more

The food and service were amazing! I cannot recommend this place enough especially if you have dietary restrictions. I cannot have dairy and they recommended the Tikka Marsala vegan style. It was delicious!!! Love this place!!! read more
