Ordered dinner to-go. The food was ready on time and was packed well. The dishes tasted fine. The reason for the 3 stars - The biryani had no raitha or salan, which are essential accompaniments. No plastic cutlery was in the bag. Missing these basics was disappointing. Small improvements could make a big difference. Pricing : Not a cheap place, especially since some basics were missing. read more

Really fantastic food at this charming little place. My girlfriend and I came in close to closing hours, and they were still happy to serve us. We eat a lot of Indian food, and we both agreed that this is some of the best we've ever had! The chicken korma and butter masala were sensational! If you like Indian food, this place is a must! read more

The food Is very flavorful and delicious! We had the garlic naan, lentils, rice, and allotiki. The service was fast and very nice presentation of the dishes. The server is very kind. Very relaxed atmosphere that is clean and fresh. The lighting is perfect inside. The staff all around were very accommodating and made the dishes special order without any issues. Thank you! Definitely will return again. read more

Aloo Tiki Chaat (chickpeas with potato patty) - my first time having this dish, it was really good! I would get again Gobi Chilli (fried spiced cauliflower) - This was really good! It has a a slight kick to it. Chicken Palak - This is an herby spinach dish came with rice and was really good! I love spinach based dishes Chicken Korma - This has a nutty sweet flavor I would have this again Pashwari Naan - Sweet naan was good but not the best pashwari naan I've had read more

Absolutely never expected to have the one of the best Chicken Curry dishes delivered to my home! This dinner far exceeded my expectations!!! My cravings called and you answered! read more

Indian Bistro is a solid Indian Restaurant. The people working here are friendly and they give good portion sizes for both the rice and the entree. I tried the Aloo Palak and it was nice and creamy with hearty chunks of potato in it. Really good combination with the basmati rice and the naan. The ambiance of the place is ok though. It is a rather cramped restaurant and service can be slow at times. But look beyond that and this is a decent place to come to for Indian food :) read more

Great traditional Indian food. Well spiced, palate pleasing delightful food. Wonderful owner and team- celebrating 9 years. Worth finding- you'll love it. read more

Horrible food. It was my first time ordering from Indian Bistro, I ended up throwing the entire meal into the trash. I bit into something hard and disgusting. The chicken wasn't recognizable. It was connective tissue and so utterly gross. I love Thai food and was hoping that to find a restaurant close to my house. I will never go again, and will warn others not to waste their money. I guess I will have to continue to drive to Tampa. read more

I had dinner tonight at the Indian Bistro and it was amazing! I loved the chicken tikka masala with garlic naan, but I also had the chili cauliflower that was out of this world. It was a small portion given to me as a gift by Madhu, the owner's mother. It was such a lovely experience, and the food is amazing! Also, the boots are comfortable and everything is decorated beautifully with nice ambient lighting, nothing glaring in your eyes. I appreciate that. read more

This place has no business being as good as it is! the food is super delicious and they have great service. My parents and sister love it here. We are weekly customers, and it is always a meal we look forward to having. I fear they will end up putting others out of business because how good their food is. If you like Indian food give yourself a treat and come on by. They also have lunch specials. read more

The owner is dishonest and he would not honor the Clipp coupon that I brought $15 for $30 with purchase food of $60. The owner will only honor of paying $45 for $60 food. Which means there is no discount at all. Because I have already paid $45. If owner doesn't want offer discount then he should remove the discount offer from Clipp read more

We have been here twice and the food is hot, fresh and delicious. Friendly service. We can't wait to return.

This was absolutely fantastic food. The staff were super friendly, and recommended butter chicken and lamb curry. May I say for having Indian food for the first time, this was an awesome first time experience. This is not a large restaurant, in fact it's quite small, but quaintly situated in a plaza area. If you're looking for a good Indian restaurant, don't pass this up. I didn't take a photo of our food, although I wish I would have. As a side note, the server also offered to give us extra rice for the sauce we had left, as we had eaten all of the meat that accompanied the dish. By the way, Get the Naan bread as well!! It won't disappoint!! read more

Been here a few times, everything we have had has been amazing. Service is always great

Okay, so for food it's definitely a 4 star. We ordered butter chicken, Tikka chicken garlic naan. The garlic naan is the best I've ever had. The restaurant itself with the ambience and cleanliness is definitely needs improvement. We will eat here again but probably just order takeout. Love that this is a family run business and the parents or grandparents are there hanging out. The location is pretty good as well located near the shopping area with plenty of parking. read more

Food pretty good, wait staff incredibly rude. Never coming back. Lamb tikka masala was ok good. Rice was great. Mint chutney was the real thing, not like the liquid most places serve. Naan was ok, but I had to blot it with a napkin, as they poured melted butter on it. The service was horrible. I'll never return. They have the wrong address on their website, which I drove to after I was told they had lunch specials. I called when I arrived, as there was no Indian Bistro! Same person answered. He said to keep looking. I drove all around/nothing. He told me to Google it and asked me to call back later because he was "Busy"! Then I repeated the address, and he said that was the wrong address, even though I got it from the website! No apology. When I finally arrived, he said to sit at any of the 5-6 tables. A cone was blocking 3-4 tabes, so I sat at the one free table. (Warning- it's a huge center, so turn on "walking" on your gps.) Thrvperson I'd been speaking with brought service for 2, even though I said i was alone. He said that's ok and left the extra plate and menu (when dining alone who wants that extra reminder you're alone?) He then proceeded to show me all the possibilities on the menu, when I had already selected my lunch menu; he just kept talking over me. When I showed him the lunch menu, which we'd already addressed on the phone, he looked at his watch (2:45), as the lunch menu closed at 3. I reminded him that it had taken me a half hour longer, due to the wrong address. He said "that's not my fault". I said it was the restaurant's fault and needed to be corrected. Again he stated it wasn't his fault. He then told me to be nice to him, because he was doing his best. I didn't care if the food was slow in coming (it wasn't), so I believe he was chastising me. Maybe I had a grumpy look on my face, but I had said nothing negative,except about the wrong address. While I ate my food, he continued to stop by and say he was doing his best, so I should do my best to be nice to him. I ate in silence, asking only for to-go containers. I went to the bathroom (ok), and the bill was ready for signing. I have Never In My Life not given a tip. But he'd been so rude on the phone and in person, I just couldn't do it (sorry kitchen staff). I did go up to him on my way out and told him the food was good, but I wouldn't be back because he was so rude. He denied it, and tried to change my mind. I said I'm trying to be helpful, and left. I'm writing this in my car parked outside the restaurant. Reflecting- I have Never been treated like that at Any restaurant. I'm a nice person, and treat people with kindness. Your decision: food pretty quick and homemade, reasonably priced , but others are just as good, same or lower prices, nicely decorated, and No Rude Staff. *** I just checked,and they've changed the Yelp listing to the correct address. The"wrong" address was their former location, Deeya? Indian restaurant. So, maybe I've helped someone. *** read more

The food at Indian Bostro is delicious and reasonably priced. The service was very good. If you like Indian cuisine dine here.

My quest for an acceptable quality biriyani away from home continues. I can never understand why these run-of-the-mill Indian restaurants pass off something that it is not. Mixing cooked rice with some curried hash does not make it biriyani. What is the harm in having a rice dish on the menu, there's probably 40 or 50 different ones from all over India that you can choose from? Vast majority of them are so easy to prepare! Pathetic of them to pass off these poorly done done food and do such an injustice to a wonderful, aromatic and flavorful dish that biriyani is! Oh another thing.. a request to the owner - please stock spoons that the people can eat with and not expect them to eat with these humongous spoons!! read more

this place is decent as far as food I wouldn't go out of my way to say it's really good or anything. however if you're in the area, it's usually not too busy in there so it's a good option if you're trying to get in and get out. I don't really have anything bad to say about it. I would just say overall it doesn't really stand out. The prices are fair. The food is decent. Certainly good to have in the neighborhood. read more

Indian Bistro - B3. Garlic Naan, Mango Lassilassi, one of their spinach vegetarian dishes - Indian Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Based on the reviews I really expected to love this place!! But sadly, I wasn't impressed with anything I ordered. Here's what I had: - Chicken Tikka Masala: I found it to almost taste watered-down. it was super bland but with just a kick of spice at the end. It was really odd. There was nothing, no real "flavor". It was sad. - Garlic Naan: Again just boring. It was basic, and the edges were all burnt to black crisp and i hate the taste of 'char', so had to tear all the crusts off in order to eat the middle - Samosa (Veg): was overly-spiced, but again didn't have a basic flavor. It was also kind of mushy on the inside. The exterior was nice and crisp but interior was mushy . I'm really disappointed because i truly was excited to try this place but sadly it just did not live up to the hype. I just moved here from Chicago where there is a fair amount of Indian restaurants. I will continue my quest to find one here that I enjoy. After I get over my initial disappointment i may decide to give them one more chance, but we'll see. Location is in a little strip-mall at the very end. It's easy to miss so you have to be watching. Inside isn't fancy at all, very basic. But to me it's about the food. The best thing about the place was the super-sweet girl working the counter. She really was very friendly and pleasant. One odd thing I noticed while i was waiting was - there was a white American guy working in the kitchen. He was the only other person I saw while i was there. I really hope this isn't the chef. If it is, it might explain why there isn't enough flavor. I guess I would expect a true Indian place to have an Indian chef, but hey, maybe I'm wrong. Unless you've lived in a place and know the culture/history and know how to incorporate all the flavors/spices, i can't imagine that you'd be able to truly understand how to make a dish and the depth of the flavors. That's just not something you can learn in a cooking class. But who knows what the story is. Anyways, I do like to support local places so hey - give it a try for yourself, you may just love it. I seem to be in the minority here because everyone else seems to love it. read more

Best Indian food I've had in a long time. They have clearly marked which dishes are vegan, which I so appreciate. I had the bharta and the aloo gobi, both were exceptional and the service was really attentive and kind. I highly recommend checking this place out! Tip: if you're looking for something actually spicy, the level 3 was what I would consider mild/medium (I have a high tolerance) so go higher read more

My boyfriend is from Agra. I've never been to a Indian Restaurant, therefore, I had him order for us. I. found all of the offerings tasting fresh and made with love. My BF explained the food to me and also said that the flavors were very close to his homeland. I love every part of the experience. Our server did not have any time to do anything but to take our order, lay the food down and process our check. read more

I've gone here for three years even before the location shift. I went here about a week ago and everything was different. The food was different. There was a dish that I always get and the server told me it couldn't be prepared the way I wanted it to...even though I had done it the same way for the past three years. The chef in the back did prepare it the way I requested but with an up charge. I'm going to go back because everybody has an off day, but my last experience was not a good one. I didn't see the usual employees either so that might be it. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this small little Indian Bistro. The food was absolutely delicious with the perfect amount of spices and servings. We ordered the Samosa for an appetizer, Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Tikka Masala and two types of Naan one with onion and the other with garlic and butter. It was all amazing. I don't believe some of these negative reviews, more like biased or false reviews because of the current climate of this country either that or people are just snobs. I would definitely recommend this place. Our server, Schweta (correct me if I'm wrong in your reply and I will update this) was absolutely delightful. She greeted us as we walked in and promptly sat us at the table providing us with fresh water. Gave us time to review the menu. She was so polite, respectful and attentive. I was kind of hungry so my apologies for not photos. Tip for diners, when reviewing restaurant reviews look at their most recent ones. That will tell you the truth about how they are doing. We will be back, definitely. One minor thing, turn up the music a bit it was barely audible. Be very proud of your heritage. read more

So... Im a sucker for Indian food. Its one of my favorites. The food here is somewhat inconsistent. Meaning if you order the same thing, but a month apart, don't expect the exact same flavors. This place has changed names/ownership a few times. I think I've been eating there through a few different ownerships. The decor needs some major updating. I'd call it casual/rundown. Not a place for a date night, but okay for a casual dinner. The server last time I was here was... interesting. OVERALL: Would come back for food alone. read more

Great food, kind of pricey but it's worth it. Lamb tika masala is a favorite. Authentic Indian.

Hands down , the BEST Indian food I've ever had. So fresh and delicious! I got mild for the level of spicy es which is perfect. A little tang to the touge. The naan was freshly made, it was so hot I had to give it a few which I absolutely love because it taste fresh out the oven. The portion was pretty large. I got to take left overs home. The mango lassi was also so yummy. A little sour and sweet which I also loved. Highly recommend if you're in the area. read more
