    Phenomenal chicken korma curry (5/5 stars), great garlic naan (5/5 stars), good kofta (4/5 stars), good pakora (4/5 stars), and another good curry (4/5 stars). Unfortunately the mango custard was a 1/5 stars for me. We split it four ways, and none of us had more than two bites of it. I'd describe it as puréed pumpkin: the texture varied from dry to wet, stringy to smooth, and overall was nothing like what I expected (a dairy/forward or ice cream or egg-y dessert).

    I ordered Kalia to go for dinner. Like many of the reviews, the restaurant was empty. However, the service was great and staff were friendly. Garlic basil naan: delicious piece of naan however the garlic was relatively bland and I couldn't pick it up. The naan itself was delicious, light, and fluffy by itself though. Tikka masala with chicken: generous portion of white meat chicken. The chicken didn't seem to be cooked in the tikka masala as the center of it was completely white but that makes sense as you can adjust the proteins. The flavor of the tikka masala was heavy with tomato - it almost seemed like the only ingredient was tomato. Overall an okay spot for Indian food but it doesn't seem authentic.

    This place is such a gem. I've been here twice now and both times the service and food were fantastic. The food is super flavorful, served fresh, and comes out to you quickly. The servers I had were incredibly friendly and attentive. The ambiance is nice, it's a small restaurant so it's not super noisy or hectic. They usually have some sort of video playing softly in the background on a large TV, one time it was an Indian musical and another time it was an ASMR video of a guy preparing food on a frozen lake. If you're looking for a quiet, local, hole-in-the-wall gem of a restaurant to eat some incredible food, this is the place to try. We'll be back here quite a bit.

    We were looking for something close that had reasonably priced Indian food. This plan popped up! We loved the naan and rice, the aloo gobi was pretty tasty and good amount of spice. The butter chicken was a tad salty for us. We ordered take out, it was super quick, they were nice and kept our food warm. Super nice person who served us.

    Veg Samosas

    Stopped in for a weeknight dinner and sat ourselves down quickly. The server was very kind and nice we felt welcome. Just an FYI this place takes spice seriously - we did 4/6 level spice and it definitely packed the heat! Its a very simple interior (no AC). Samosas - delicious and pipping hot! only comment is that they did not have the green mint chutney but they did have tamarind. Aloo Gobi - the best aloo gobi I have had in Seattle. Finally an aloo gobi that has a saucier consistency! it was delicious. Chicken tikka masala - generous portions of chicken in a delicious masala sauce. Naan - it was too good, my only complaint is that I wish it was bigger like some of the other naan's in the Seattle area. No problem - we ordered another one.

    Chicken Tikka Masala.  Flavorful sauce and good cuts of chicken

    We make our trip off of Capitol Hill to go here for their excellent food and service. We have been going here for over 15 years. Consistent throughout!

I'm not sure what happened on my last visit as the curries were on the colder side. When you arrive parking can be a bit difficult, there is a small parking lot out front, if that's full you'll need to find street park. The restaurant itself feels warm, casual, and bustling. Queen you walk in you have the option to sit on the backyard patio or in the dining room. We opted to sit in the dining room as it just felt more intimate and the vibe we were wanting for dinner. For our appetizer, we started with the Samosas (Two crispy pastries filled with your choice of freshly mixed vegetables or delicately spiced lean ground beef) which were excellent. Next we ordered the garlic naan, chicken tikka masala, and butter chicken. The naan and samosas showed up piping hot but the chicken tikka masala & butter chicken were cold. I probably should have said something as I was disappointed but was too hungry to care at that moment. If I'm in the Seattle area I may stop by Taste of India again.

The spot is an intimate coffee house by day (Salt and Sugar) and a "feel good" bistro by evening.

The star of the show was Sahlab dessert beverage, which a milk drink made with delicate flavors of orange blossom water, rose water, and mastic, topped with cinnamon, coconut, and nuts. I'm so glad we gave this place a try and supported a family owned business. We'll be back for sure.

Everything was tasty, but the murg makhni was definitely the standout for me, which was very comforting. The garlic naan was a great side to go with the curry, and the lamb tikka was solid too.

Overall, a solid Indian spot and I'd recommend it, especially for the murg makhni!

Indian takeout on St. Patrick's Day, oops my bad. Most likely this takeout was cobbled together from the lunch buffet. Overall the cuisine was a decent variety and generously packaged. Each takeout box had basmati rice, peas & carrots in a tomato based sauce, bite sized samosas, with the main entrees provided were butter chicken, saag paneer, and chicken vindaloo. Reasonable to call it a takeout thali. Can't speak to ambiance because it was takeout. Service was swift and efficient, showed my TGTG order and handed a bag with two takeout containers. In, out, and go. I was glad for the thick plastic bag because it was overfilled, oozed out, and could have been a mega mess in the car heading back home. What was missing was the ka-pow flavor! Indian cuisine usually has mega flavor and palate pleasing. This did not align with my earlier visits from way back when. Perhaps I'm accustomed to fave Indian spots in the UDistrict. But when brought home, another family member,The Homie, agreed on this assessment when we later dined at home. Not bad, not great. Kind of a let down from my earlier memories of India Bistro. With the vast regional Indian spots in Seattle and across the lake in Bellevue and Redmond, I kind of expected OG India Bistro to be gold standard. Just okay, hence the three stars for this TGTG experience.
