When we think of Indian cuisine, our minds go straight to images of exotic dishes with curry and other complex combinations of herbs and spices. The Indian cuisine’s pervasiveness of the food market is as powerful as Bollywood’s influence in the film industry. This year, we’ve named the top three Indian restaurants that will most certainly spice up your lives.  

Indira

Indira offers delectable Indian spices and enchanting flavours with its artful cooking and authentic ingredients. One of the most modern-looking Indian eateries we’ve seen in the Capital, Indira’s tasteful décor feels like Indian exoticism and modern architecture have been merged seamlessly.

Maharaja

Even though we may have raised the bar a tad with Indira, that does not diminish the superb quality of our next restaurant on the list; Maharaja. Their top authentic Indian dishes include the Butter Chicken, marinated in rich, creamy tomato sauce, and Lasooni Tikka with its garlic green chilly herbs. For your sweet tooth, there is also the delicious Coconut Ice Cream. The list goes on as you dive into other main courses and savoury appetisers. Our mouths are watering already!       

Maharani

Only a handful of restaurants that offer Indian Cuisine are as spectacular as Maharani. However, unlike its peers above, it delivers the typical Indian experience your looking for, no subtlety here. But Maharani, nonetheless, delivers where it matters – the cuisine is outstanding.
