Best Indian Restaurants in South Philly

Last minute decision to eat while shopping. Great food and will try to get back in area for their lunch buffet.

Sura Indian Bistro is fabulous. The decor is stylish and modern. The waitress was attentive and service was timely. The food was excellent, especially the lamb vindaloo. I like how they rated the spice level from 1-5, with medium (3) level working well for me. We had lemon ginger mocktails which were excellent. Next visit, I will try a cocktail. For the high quality of the food, service, and atmosphere, the prices were reasonable. There is an upstairs area which would be nice for a party. I am already looking forward to a return visit.

I love Indian cuisine. The food was wonderful. Thanal Tavern is a fun, casual dining spot for drinks and food with friends. The service was lovely with very accommodating staff. I am a single and frequently meet couple friends. The option for a separate check makes my life easy. Their billing system accommodated my request seamlessly. It was my first time at Thanal and will be a do over for sure.

Second visit, the vegetarian food was better than the meat entrees

The food here is delicious and the portions are large. I have ordered from here many times and will continue to order from here. On the whole, the staff was super friendly. Of note, they do not have Coke products. There was an issue with our order- something forgotten- and one of the staff yelled at another staff member and that was upsetting. The noise level was low except for the same staff that yelled being very loud on the phone.
