Best Indian food in Ct. and the owners and staff are so friendly! Beautiful decor inside

This is my go-to place for take out Indian since it is right on my way home. The food is good and ready pretty fast. My favorite is the Saag Paneer. I also love their garlic naan. I make sure to check my order before I leave the parking lot though. They do forget small things every once in a while (sauces, crisps), but one time they totally forgot my order of chicken tikka masala. If you are in this area and craving Indian, this place will definitely get the job done. read more

Dropped off my pup at Guilford Vet and stumbled upon this Indian restaurant. As soon as I walked in I could. It help but admire the detail in the decor. From the wood floors, warm choice in paint color, to the incredible hand painted chairs. The service was impeccable. The manager and servers were spot on. To top it off - the food was fantastic! Would highly recommend! read more

Kamana - Indian Near Me - Guilford, Connecticut

See all

We always enjoy a delicious meal at Kamana. Service is excellent and friendly staff.

The best Indian food around! Really great, friendly owners and staff. Very clean, bright premises. Some Indian restaurants miss the mark and everything tends to taste similar. Not here...at Kamana the food is excellent, tasty and just wonderful! Consistently a wonderful meal. We recommend them to everyone and only hear glowing comments. Wonderful! read more

Given there are zero Indian restaurants in Madison, killingworth, Clinton and Westbrook, and only one in Guilford and one in Branford... there is not a lot of choice on the shoreline. Darbar is the lone choice in Branford and that rates as two stars. Kamana is the one Indian restaurant in Guilford and it rates as average or three stars. There is NOTHING redeeming about the cuisine. We ordered samosa, nan, butter chicken, chicken tikka masala and chicken sag, and bland comes to mind for all the dishes. Nothing jumped out at us... nothing seemed fresh and flavorful. Maybe if you never had Indian before and you like Applebee's... Kamana will be good for you. For us, it was a disappointment. read more

Kamana - Indian Near Me - Guilford, Connecticut

A great addition to the Guilford food scene! Convenient location, but slightly crazy parking. We tried takeout last week, and the order was quick and accurate. Samosas were tasty and still hot when I got home. Plain and garlic naan were both deliciously charred. We kept it simple and tried their chicken curry and tikka masala...both were well-seasoned and ample. There was plenty of rice as well, always a pet peeve! We will definitely be there again. The interior is simple but very pretty, and the service was friendly. Maybe we'll eat there and try some more adventurous menu items! read more

This place is LEGIT!! Some of the best Indian food I've had outside of India. All the Kormas are SO GOOD. Flavorful, creamy, delicious. The quality of all the meat is also amazing. The staff are all so friendly and efficient. This is one of my go-tos, particularly for take out, in the shoreline. read more

Delicious, healthy, clean food. Every dish is a good one. Dal, Tikka, aloo, saag. Could eat here many times a week and never not chow happily. read more

Great atmosphere Great service And yummy food Sorry about the spelling, and these disses are wonderful Sag paneer Moli cofa Chicken tiki Marsala read more

We have eaten here 4 times on trips traveling home from NYC. Food is delicious, the service is pleasant and courteous and the decor is soothing. One of our favorite Indian restaurants. The veggie dishes are yummy and well spiced as are the chicken dishes. We'll be back somewhere down the road. read more

Service was a bit disjointed, but the food was good and I would go back! It's a new restaurant and I am sure that they will get the timing straightened out. The standards were all represented and I had the chicken tiki masala, which was decent. The rice was just ok; usually jasmine rice is a special treat as I am indifferent to most other types of rice (except sushi rice). read more

We've been cooped up in self-isolation for going on three months and haven't had Indian food in a very long time, but we've have had Kamana in the past and the craving struck hard today. We are very pleased that they offered pick up service (and also a lovely little garden seating area) and on request they will deliver food to your car's trunk. We saw all employees wearing masks. And the food was just unbelievably good, as always. We highly recommend the chicken tikka and dal makhana. We always get a side of their masala sauce which is neither too sweet nor too fatty and always tastes fresh and balanced. It was all packaged neatly and even included the little lentil crackers and trio of dips/sauces that we weren't expecting in a takeout situation. We will be going back for more! Very thankful to have this restaurant in town. Please give them your business. read more

Great food and nice atmosphere. The parking situation is not great but the food makes up for it. I wish they had weekend buffets though. We'd go there more often if they did. read more

My husband and I lived in nyc for a decade; spoiled with all the cultural cuisine imaginable. We have been searching for an authentically delicious Indian spot since we moved to CT 3 years ago. And BINGO, Kamana is it! We kept it basic for our first order; we got chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, vegetable samosas and the vegetable korma. The sauces were creamy and spiced perfectly. We left kamana with full belly's and joyous hearts. This is a must try and an always return to in our opinion! read more

The food is delicious and staff is incredibly friendly. We do takeout mostly and love their Tandoori chicken and Tikka Masala.

I love this place! It's cute, clean and the staff is warm and friendly. Above that the food is amazing! This is my go to place when I'm craving Indian cuisine. read more

:) The food and warmth of the staff. I look forward to feeling comfortable to dining IN again.

This place is awesome. The food is outstanding and there's a wide variety of authentic dishes. My son, who is a picky eater, found plenty of selections that he thought were delicious. He also really enjoyed the Indian smoothie drink that was recommended by our waiter. But even better are the people who work there. They truly take pride in their service and their food. We will be going back as soon as possible. It's also worth mentioning that they deliver. Do yourself a favor and try it! read more

Food is good. Nice ambience and friendly staff. You can't go wrong with their Lunch specials!! read more

Excellent food, some of the best in CT, great service. Parking is a little funky but it's still worth a stop

Not bad, not great. Super nice staff. Service is excellent. Ordered papri chat app which is described on the menu as wafer chips, yogurt, chick peas and tamarind. Came without chick peas and loaded with raw red onion. They replaced it and the second time it came with chick peas, tomato and potato. Food should come out as described! Tiki marsala was very good. Tandoori chicken was good flavor but average quality. Layout of the restaurant is a little awkward so you may get a not so desirable table. Not sure if this place will last long term. Will try take-out in the future. read more

Best Indian food I have ever had! The service was incredible, owner personable and beautifully decorated. I cannot wait to go back. Feel so lucky to have Kamana in Guilford! read more

I do not usually like Indian Food BUT I Love their chicken wings ! They are a family Fav ! read more

Great place to dine in or take out. They have great appetizers and Mango Lassi's. Try Kamana!

I can't say enough good things about the food from Kamana. We moved back to CT from the Bay Area last year and we were concerned we wouldn't have a vast array of international food available. Kamana is hands down one of the best Indian restaurants I've ever eaten at in the U.S. Their menu is vast and everything my husband and I have tried has been delicious. We usually do takeout as we live down the street and their food never fails to satisfy at the end of a long day or week. Always a real treat! read more

This is my favorite indian food restaurant in the area. I love their paneer tikka masala. The atmosphere is beautiful too. The little touches in decor are perfect. All the staff there are very nice and polite and fully of smiles. Great customer service. The food comes out quick too. It's a little pricey for dinner size meals. The best deal is to go for lunch. If I'm in the mood for Indian I would 100% go to Kamana. You will smell like indian food after eating here. read more

First impression was this place is beautiful. Assumed it would be like any other Indian restaurant, but was greeted by server who took his time to explain the many vegan options . Was able to accommodate us so easily and the food was amazing!! Even the non-vegans were highly impressed. read more

Two weeks ago we stumbled upon this little gem. We had to drive through Guilford again last night and it was like a magnet pulled us back there. The food is incredible. After deciding we had to go back, the aroma wafting from the house drew us in quickly. We were greeted with warm and inviting smiles by staff as if we were being invited into their home and did I say the food was delicious? I was all ready to order the same dishes we had had the last time because they were so good but we were compelled to try a sampler. It was all excellent. Even better we got to come home with left overs and get to savor it all over again for at least one more meal. Now we're waiting for drive up to Guilford in 2 weeks so we can return!! Kamana is going to be getting to know us really well. Thank you for your hospitality and delightful meal! read more

Always delicious! We love the paneer tika masala and the butter chicken. The kids always love the mango lassis as a special drink and of course, the naan. Service is fantastic as well! read more

Love this place. Have been twice and will come more. The first time we had to wait 45 minutes despite having a reservation but we got over it. The food is delicious and authentic and the service is friendly and attentive. Great to have such a great restaurant nearby! read more

Our favorite Indian restaurant! Delicious food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, did I mention the food??? So good. read more

We visit Kamana often as their food is always fresh, served hot and with a smile. They are so friendly and that makes us enjoy going back almost more than the food. They can transform any item on their menu into a Vegan dish...believe me! This place is a must visit. read more

Update: so aside from the amazing food Kamana offers, I just wanted to share about the kind of community member we have here. Over the weekend I had lunch at Kamana, and walked out without my purse. The owner spent 24 hours nervously trying his best to convince my credit card company to contact me to let me know he had it. He eventually was able to track me down through his own wiles, but really went above and beyond. And when I came in and apologized for stressing him out (I didn't even realize I had left it there), he made me a complimentary mango lasse. The Kamana guys are the best! Sorry again! read more

Kamana - Indian Near Me - Guilford, Connecticut

Restaurants typically have one, and sometimes two, chances to ensure a customer will return. For a first visit, my wife and I recently went to Kamana and were surprised to get some terrific Indian food. At least four stars, which is a fine rating for any restaurant. We will be back. High points: food quality, cleanliness of restaurant, attentive service, clean and well-lighted parking lot. Recommended: Chana Masala and the garlic naan. Your "competition" in nearby towns doesn't even come close! read more

Stopped by for first lunch here. It will not be the last!!! Excellent meal, fabulously presented by a friendly staff. read more

The food is always amazing. I only wish they would have a buffet lunch so I could sample everything.

Absolutely delicious! Never disappoints! And wonderful service too! The Chicken Tikka Masala is fantastic.

I have been living in NYC for past 5 years and on my way back from Maine, stopped by here for dinner and i have to say this, this is the closest to how indian food is supposed to be i have had in past 5 years. Amazing staff, fantastic service, good quantity for their prices. Will definitely visit again if got a chance. read more

Solid Indian option along the shoreline. We've eaten in once here and gotten takeout a few times. Food has always been consistent (my wife recommends the vegetable biryani and my son, the naan). Very friendly service too. read more
