I came with my family to Indian Curry Palace Sunday June 14th 2026 . We had just missed the buffet portion but waited an hour for them to reopen back up at 4pm. My family and I loooooove the food here, and it's always fresh, flavorful, and full of authentic taste. I'm a frequent guest, and the owners know me personally. They are some of the kindest people I've ever met and always show amazing hospitality and customer service. I've been coming to this restaurant for years, and it honestly amazes me that despite how I come every blue moon and how reasonable their prices are, the owners still remember me by name. You can truly tell they care about their customers and put love into both their food and their business. I had the Lamb Sadabahar, and it was absolutely delicious tender, well-seasoned, rich in flavor, and cooked perfectly. Every dish I've tried here has been consistently good. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the experience always feels like home. If you're looking for authentic Indian food with incredible flavor, great prices, and genuine hospitality, Indian Curry Palace is definitely a place I recommend. 5/5 every time. read more

AMAZING is an understatement!!! My first time visiting, but the t wont be my last. My team came here last night as an end of a project celebration and I am sooooooooo glad we did. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. The restaurant was clean and spacious. Tables can accommodate pairs as well as couples. We ordered a ton of food and it came out hot and delicious. I tried fish pakora for the first time and it was amazing. Garlic naan was great and the portions we just perfect. I can't wait to go back. read more

I love Indian food. The husband not so much. So it's not often that I indulge. Today I was craving Indian food and in particular, I wanted to try biriyani, as I had been reading about it in a novel (power of suggestion, ya'll). I have seen this spot and knew it was close by, as well as near several other enticing shops and eateries. Right away the smell that envelopes you as you walk in was so fragrant and wonderful. Then you are received with a warm greeting from a gracious gentleman I would guess is the owner. He took my order, making suggestions, and offering me water while I waited (take out). The food came out piping hot. Brought it home and popped it open immediately. The vegetable samosas are gigantic, not spicy, filled with potato and peas, with the requisite crunchy outside. We tried "no spice" (zero) vegetable biriyani and chicken biriyani. It came with two generous containers of yogurt sauce, as well as two smaller containers of other condiments. Everything was delicious and it was a relief to find that when this place says not spicy they mean it (as oftentimes, a restaurant's default is still spicy even when you ask for none). I saw that they have a lunch buffet. Will definitely return. read more

Stumbled upon this place while we were at Southcenter mall, looking for an Indian place to eat. It was close to our location and parking wasn't a hassle. We didn't realize they offer lunch buffet until we showed up there. Ambiance of this place is just casual. Nothing exuberant about this. The buffet wasn't quite ready - so we have been given the menu to place the order ala carte. They really do have some solid options - so many varieties of Naan was a big surprise. Apart from the normal Indian entrees, they also offers the fusion snacks as well. But by the time we finalized what we want to order, the buffet was ready. So eventually tried the buffet. They did have the Tandoori chicken as appetizer. Karahi, Butter and regular chicken curry as meat options. No Goat curry in buffet. Channa Masala, Paneer Tikka Masala, Potato dopiyaza and Dal Makhani as veg options. Also the pakora and naan. Rice options were Jeera rice and vegetable rice. They do have small salad bar also, along with some dessert options. Options were decent. The curries were good. Great with Naan and jeera rice. Tandoori chicken was absolutely delicious - everyone loved it. The appetizer and dessert options were not great. I expected better options for $20 buffet. Just a kheer will not cut for dessert. They do offer lower buffet price for kids under 12, but they did charge us the adult rate for kids. I didn't notice it at that time, unfortunately. Overall rating is 3.5! read more

This place deserves a Michelin star!! read more

I've been going to this place since I was a teenager and I just love Indian Curry Palace. Their customer services is ALWAYS amazing, some of the sweetest people! The curry is so good, I've had tikka masala, I've had their butter chicken, I've had the saag paneer (I believe that's what it's called) and their mango curry. All of them, so good. It's very clean inside, calming music and just a great ambiance overall. Thank you so much for serving me! read more

My go-to indian restaurant since moving to Seattle from California! As most restaurants suffered during COVID, few came out trying harder! Indian Curry Palace has brought back their lunch buffet and introduced new items like dosas and tacos. The husband orders the masala dosa everytime now and I love their noodles. We typically order vegetarian dishes only but we've brought carnivorous friends and their meat dishes are just as good! The staff is very nice and fairly accommodating. The owner lady knows me well enough that she'd remind me to skip cilantro when I forget! I have a pretty low spice tolerance so she'd make recommendations and help me navigate the menu. I trust her and getting a 2 out of 6 does kick everything up a notch! read more

As someone who has had Dosas in multiple countries, across several continents, and from an array of ethnicities; I can confidently say this was the worse Dosa I've ever had. To start, the restaurant is in desperate need of remodeling. Even the plastic barrier from early COVID days was showing its' age. The paint job over the accents put on the wall look as if they were done by a 7 year old. The floor made the same sound as the sweat covered cushioned floor at a gym. I should I have listened to my intuition and left before it arrived. In a nearly empty restaurant, with the majority (outside of two take away orders) already having their food, it took nearly 30 minutes to receive what ended up being my punishment for having a craving for my people's food. Upon receipt of the dish, I already knew what fate had in store for me. What they called "chutney" tasted like green tap water, with a hint of coconut, and looked like what my dog throws up after eating too much grass. The "beige" variety, which I assumed was supposed to be coconut chutney, had lost its' flavor months ago and all that was left was the punch of freezer burn and depression. The best part was they provided something along 2 tablespoons of each. The sambar, and the dosa itself, was like having salt spoon fed to me. I'm all for supplementing electrolytes, but I like to utilize different, and healthier, avenues for that. The filling of the paneer dosa was simply sloppily chopped tomatoes and shredded paneer. No herbs, no chilies, no peas, no love. If I had to guess, I'd say the restaurant lost its' heart decades ago and has been scraping by since. Indian food is a celebration; this food was a cry for help including the salty tears. read more

The curry and naan were rich and flavor, and the whole meal was filling. My favorite were the palace naan and the mango lassi. The attendants were also very polite and cheery. Totally recommend if you are looking to try some great curry. read more

We took advantage of the lunch buffet recently, and everything was delicious! The owners are well aware of gluten issues. I only had to avoid the naan and one type of pakora--the rest of the offerings were gluten free! Clean dining room, friendly and helpful staff, yummy food, easy parking--go check it out! read more

Honestly I don't usually feel compelled to leave reviews for a lot of places, but this place has been a favorite of mine for like a year now. Food is sooo good, butter chicken is my go to. It pairs realllly well with the onion kulcha. The service in here is always so lovely. They are kind when they greet you and very helpful with recommendations always. Finally, the music is totally a vibe. 10/10 definitely recommend. read more

Great food and great service! I ordered chana masala, puri and samosa. Samosa was a little dry, but still was 8/10, and chana masala and puri were 10/10- super delicious read more

Chicken Tandoori was stale, tasted very old. This place is way overpriced for what it is. Limited selection and poor quality.

Indian food is packed with flavor from all the spices and herbs, plus it can be really nutritious with lots of vegetables, lentils, and lean proteins. It's also great for sharing and celebrating together! Food was really good they are really nice I would come back again to this restaurant the guy was a really sweet person read more

Tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt, but the portions were tiny for the price. The flavor was definitely not there for any of the curries especially because they were somewhat watery and not thick. It made me not want to eat Indian food for awhile, which is crazy because I love Indian food! The worst part is my friends and I basically got burgers next door because we left not full. read more

The food is always amazing here both at lunch and dinner. Last time I had the dosas I shared it with everyone at the table and they all wished they had ordered it. The sauces they serve with it are to die for! My four year old loves the paneer tika masala, lots of flavor and we get it with a 1 on the spice scale, and it's perfect for her. Great vegan options! Easy parking! And I love having a quick and delicious option with the buffet when I am down at south center shopping. The owners are so kind as is the staff! And the place is always clean. read more

I've been coming here for years but only getting take out. Today my partner and I decided to dine in a boy were we in for a treat.

We will definitely be dining in again - everything was delicious ! read more

The people here are super friendly and the food is the best we've had in the area -- and we've tried a lot of Indian in the Tukwila/Kent/Burien area. The portions are a good size and the price is very competitive. It's become our go-to Indian place, we just don't go anywhere else these days... the taste and value are hard to beat. It's out top Indian spot! read more

It's probably not entirely fair to judge a smaller Indian restaurant solely by its lunch buffet but, as that's all that I've tried, I don't suppose I have any other option. The food was pretty decent - what little there was of it - but, by 1:00, most of the dishes were down to just sauce without much meat, the naan took forever to arrive and was quickly gone, the salad section was simply lettuce, cucumber slices, ranch dressing, and marinated chickpeas, there were no samosas or popadoms, and the bill came to $21.00, which is frankly ridiculous for such a skimpy selection. The service, once I was seated by the owner (?) consisted of the delivery of a pint glass, a pitcher of tap water without ice, and a napkin - no "how are you doing" or "can I get you anything else" to be seen, nor any water ever poured for me. The attitude seemed to be "it's a self-serve buffet so self-serve already". (If you're wondering, there were two waiters and the owner on the floor, so staffing levels were no excuse.) As to the decor and general atmosphere, my shoes stuck to the mats around the buffet stations, the dark and murky carpeting is old and hasn't been cleaned in decades, and the wooden chairs are sticky with years of grime and residue. I truly dislike posting negative reviews like this but, honestly, I was both disappointed and more than a little disgusted by the whole experience. I'll not be back and I don't recommend trying this place yourself. read more

This is a tale of two flavors. Pre pandemic buffet and post pandemic a la carte ordering. The lunch buffet was reliably decent. A solid but not amazing clearly high value lunch buffet was a popular spot for us when in the area. Luckily they survived the pandemic and the buffet is no longer a thing and it has been transformative. Every dish is much better. Thicker, richer and packed with flavor. Quality over quantity. We've been multiple times now and it's been great every time. Very happy about that. We had the garlic naan, goat curry and chicken saag masala. Ordered 3 stars. Plenty of heat - you'll feel it the next day :D but really delicious. We had a pretty funny moment at our visit. The couple one table over ordered a few dishes. I wasn't trying to eavesdrop but I could have sworn they ordered their food and requested *six* stars. Didn't really think anything of it until their food arrived, steaming hot. The couple ordering the food starting coughing. The table east of them started coughing. A few seconds later my wife and I were coughing too - that apparently is what happens when you get some insane pepper vapors in the air. Whoa! It was short lived but amusing. To put an exclamation point on the episode a few minutes later the chef peeked out into the dining room with a scarf covering his face which I am assuming was protection from the peppers. Lol! read more

Food was delightful and wonderful the downside was the mango Lassi mine didn't have that Oomph taste that I usually get but it's okay first time for everything.

The food is fresh and the naan toasty right from the tandoor. Rather than out out a lot all at once, they keep replenishing real-time. Service is vary nice. Friendly and accommodating staff. Feels like they are a cohesive family-like staff. I had the tea for the first time and adding 1/2 of the sugar packet made for a delightful, fragrant beverage. The selection is limited to about 24 main dishes and about 10 refrigerated dishes. Not many vegetarian dishes but I love meat! Lots of room, not claustrophobic. Nice current Indian music not too loud. Many Indian customers dining in and taking to go. read more
