My friend recommended this place while I was in town, and I am so glad we went! This is one of the…read morebest South Asian meals I've had in the Twin Cities. Everything we ordered was very fresh -- like they had taken it straight out of the pan and to our table -- and incredibly flavorful. The portions are generous, as well. I'd highly recommend the Paneer Chili (it's in the starter section but could definitely be taken as a main dish). The breads we had were also delectable. I can't recommend this place enough!

Every dish we have ordered was outstanding. From the tender, boneless lamb in the Rogan Josh to the incredibly flavorful paneer dishes and the chicken and mushroom in a creamy sauce! Their staff is kind and thoughtful-they even included an extra dessert on New Years! We are lucky to have them so close to home.

Yummy!! My husband made a reservation on NYE. Parking on Grand Ave. is hit or miss. It was a miss…read moreon our night so we looped around to a side street which is a good reminder to factor in a little extra time as there is no designated parking lot. Upon arrival, the restaurant is tucked inside a medium size shopping mall with a nail salon and a few other shops. I'm not knocking stars for this, however, the carpet and wall painting could use a refresh. Contrary, the rest of the decor felt very polished to us. The staff was attentive, got us seated promptly with the reservation and had water poured almost immediately after sitting down. To start, we ordered the warm chai. It was delicious and had just the right amount of spice. If you are looking for it to be more sweet, you can add sugar packets to it. My husband and I enjoyed it as is. For our starter, we had the garlic naan bread which was fresh and seasoned perfectly. It came with a green and brown sauce - both very good. For our main dishes, we both got chicken masala. My husband had medium spice and I had none. The presentation was beautiful arriving in silver dishes and spaced out time wise nicely from the garlic naan. We enjoyed the garlic naan so much that we ordered another round of it. Mistake our not, we could barely eat it when it arrived as we were full yet had a nice dish of leftovers to take home. We both reheated our meal on New Year's Day and the quality of freshness still existed. We look forward to returning! Thank you!!

Not ideal when you have a hungry toddler waiting in the car. No ambiance inside, really could use brighter lights (it was dim), some cleaning, decor and music. The place feels tired. Service was also lacking, did not receive a welcome and many people were just waiting there and had to approach the host stand (which is also at what appears to be the bar area?) Now to the food. Chana masala was good. Chicken tikka was fine, nothing special. Rice was fine but we received more like 1-1.5 portions of it instead of 2 (for the 2 entrees). Maybe they were short staffed, but my recent experiences missed the mark and I do not know if we will be coming back

The best Indian food I have personally had in Minneapolis (or anywhere, for that matter). I have a love for spice, and am usually disappointed in the spice level offered by places that claim to be spicy! Mdikbal (the owner) delivers on that front without sacrificing flavor of his dishes. His hospitality is commendable, I've been in plenty of times where he will casually drop an appetizer on the house for people to try. The service is always amazing. The ambience is welcoming, although I am always sad to see when it is empty inside. This place is too good for them to be empty!! Located right on lake street, this place deserves to be booming with people. I bid you if you've read this far to give India Kutir a try. You will not be disappointed.

Highly recommend for a flavorful meal!

Orders: Yak momo (12): DELICIOUS. Would 100% ordering this for anyone coming here. They were delicious. Cheese pakora: yummy deep fried cheese with a nice sauce - how could you go wrong? Naan: we ordered the garlic naan and butter naan. The butter naan was the best! Chicken thukpa: amazing soup with noodles. I wish we had ordered 2 of these. One was not enough. Chicken tikka masala: not bad, but not my favorite. I wouldn't order again because I liked everything else a lot better. Kabuli Chana: also v good! Came with rice. Though I still liked the soup and sides wayyy better. Overall, the service was great and it was a nice place to hang out and eat with friends. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu!

You can fill them with beautifully spiced vegetarian or meat options, a variety of zesty chutneys (sauces), fresh salads/toppings, and something crunchy. I got the lunch deal: it's a half-rice bowl with the paratha bread and their sauce on the side. I filled it with basmati rice, chicken tikka masala, milt cilantro and pickled aioli, all the "fresh" options, and crispy fried chickpea with the masala fried. So flavorful I loved it! Whether you're new to Indian food, or just looking for something to spice up your life while shopping, it's definitely worth the stop. The staff was friendly and explained menu items I wasn't familiar with. I love coming here when I'm at the MOA, or to their other locations around the Twin Cities.
