I had the chicken biryani and it was delicious. But: It took 38 minutes for them to give it to me. The place wasn't even crowded. They skimped on the chicken, I felt. But what I got was delicious. When I finally got it.... read more

Little India - Their food truck - Indian Near Me - Salem, Oregon

This is my second order at this truck. They are 2/2, so far! Back in July I ordered the chicken biryani off a recommendation from a worker, and it was delicious! So much flavor with each bite that I didn't want to finish it lol. Unfortunately, I did when I got home... I told myself I was eventually gonna try other items and here I am, swinging by last night and ordered the 5 piece tandoori chicken. Beware! This might take a little longer to prepare so be courteous with your wait. The gentlemen working on 9/15/25, I did not catch his name, gave me a heads up that it will take a bit longer. Let me tell you, it was worth the wait. When it was ready, I could smell the aromatics thru the light breeze and it had me floating over. (imagine a cartoon character floating over while twinkling their toes). The gentlemen asked if it was for here or to go, because he wanted me to try it and let him know how it was. I said it was to go, but I sat back down with my wife to finish our drink and tried it out. I tried a bite and ended up eating a whole piece of chicken lol...SHEESH! I had to let him know that it was excellent on my way out and what he recommended for me next time around. So far, they are killing it and I wanna give a shout out to the worker on 9/15/25 for his friendly service and recommendations! I can't wait to try the other items :) read more

Amazing food and very good service. We ate here with family, we had Dal, Saag Paneer and garlic Naan and Tandoori chicken, everything was very yummy and authentic. Loved it The guy serving was very nice and pleasant:) read more

Supper cool spot! I tried for the first time they catered at the Oregon state fair! Definitely a place to check out!

The staff for this food truck is far above and beyond others. Being fortunate to catch a slow period just after some freezing rain, he was able to make suggestions based on my tastes and dietary considerations with several great recommendations. Being quite patient walking me through the options, I ended up trying additional items and am so glad to have done so. Each dish was unique and flavorful. The spice level was customized on a scale of 10 and was even able to adjust for more spice with a trial sample. Be patient for the scratch-made sauces, they tasted fresh and had deep flavor to continue savoring with various pairings. Between 15-20 minutes delivered a meal making me want to return and try other dishes. Such friendly and helpful service, I recommend indulging in some delicious food to explore. Happy to have ordered enough to share with my family later and am excited for more! read more

Absolutely amazing food! Fresh, hot and delicious. Garlic naan, basmati rice and paneer masala were all fresh and flavorful. I will return whenever I'm in Salem. read more

This place has one of the best authentic tasting Indian food! Try the tandoori and the chicken tikka paired with the mango lassi!

Best Indian food I've had so far in my life! I'll try from well-rated places around town and even in other cities as I travel around, but nothing has reached these guys' tier yet. Only close. I've tried their butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan bread, and chicken vindaloo. All to die for! Here's a pic of the butter chicken tacos so you know what you're getting into proportion wise!! (M-F only dish) read more

Little India - Butter chicken naan tacos - Indian Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Loved their freshly baked naan which they made in the tandoor (clay oven). Great service too.

After a long day of running errands and not feeling like cooking I decide to return to Little India for an order of Butter Chicken and Garlic Naan. I've had the Butter Chicken before, but not the Garlic Naan. Go, go now and get an order of the delightful, deliciousness that is the Garlic Naan (and whatever else your heart desires). Also, a side note: Not only is the food fantastic, but every time I've visited the staff are friendly and welcoming. I can't wait until my next visit. Keep up the good work Little India! read more

Pros Delicious food High quality korma and mango shake Varieties of options - high to low cost Friendly owner Awesome location where you can mix and match with other food trucks Nice outdoor eating experience with heat and roof Cons Can't think of one yet read more

If I were to make one recommendation, it is to have more chicken added to the Tikka masala. Mine was a bit lacking. Other than that, it was delicious! read more

Little India - Butter Chicken Naan Taco - Indian Near Me - Salem, Oregon

I ordered mild chicken biyrani and it was so spicy that my wife could not eat it. I called back and they told me to order extra mild next time. I had leftovers and tried to eat them the next day, but it seemed to be spicier the next day and I couldn't eat it either. This made me very sad because it was good otherwise. read more

Love the butter chicken. Folks, this is a food truck that is located in the Beehive Station in Salem. I have been to quite a few Indian restaurants in my time, and for a food truck, this has to be one of the very best meals that I have ever had. The butter chicken is simply something that you must enjoy. I have also had the vindaloo with lamb as well. This too is a very good dish. The food comes out quite quickly as you would hope and image from a food truck. The service is always top notch. As for the location, there are tent structures that allow you to sit and eat your meals right there. Even in the coldest of days, there are propane heaters that will allow you to stay nice and toasty while eating your meals. Having been here in the summer time as well, these tents provide a nice amount of shade to get out of the heat. With plenty of places to sit and eat, along with basic drinks or if you wish a beer from the tap cart, the atmosphere here is fantastic place to get your grub on. Most places are closed on Tuesday's and you will have to check their schedules as there are all open at different times. Lastly, I would be remiss if I didn't tell you to order the garlic naan bread from Little India. This is by far one of the best naan's in terms of flavor that I have had the opportunity to come across. Don't miss this opportunity to order it. It's not too heavy on the garlic so your not going to stop a vampire attack, but just enough to give you a great flavor. And then dipping it into the butter chicken sauce.....sorry, got to go as I am my way to Salem to go to Little India! read more

Absolutely horrible! Had chicken masala that resembled sweet potato. Just tasteless and chewy. The sauce was decent. The garlic Naan was flat and sure not fresh. Used to frequent this place and always had superb food. Today was enormous miss...geez people, do better. read more

Unfortunately, the cart has changed owners but same name. Staff are friendly but the food has lost a step. The food under the former owner (Kosh) was excellent. Now, it's mediocre at best. Please bring back the old recipes! read more

Absolutely delicious! I had the chicken tikka masala and my husband had the chicken vindaloo (he avoids dairy). Also I had the garlic naan and he had the roti. He got his medium spice and said it was the perfect balance of spiciness and flavor. This is some of the best Indian food we've ever had in the PNW! Located in the Beehive food pod. We'll be back to try more dishes!! read more

An absolutely wonderful little establishment ran by an equally wonderful family,I really enjoyed the freshness of everything especially the chicken tikka masala read more

Ordered through a delivery service and everything was delicious. Tikka masala, palak paneer, naan, vegetable corma and samosa too!

Always great food and great customer service. Have not had a bad meal from here. I usually order the chicken tiki marsala and a garlic naan bread. Always consistently good. read more

Really fine Indian food from these guys! Today i had the Lamb tikka masala . medium heat. The best I have had in the US, honestly. Lots of good tender chunks of lamb in a gorgeous sauce. Heat was there but perfectly balanced with the flavors. garlic naan, really good and tasty, not too greasy and perfectly heated. I am so happy to have found my Indian fix! read more

Consistently delicious food, great service, friendly folks. I don't live close by, so I always pick up multiple orders and have some stashed in the freezer. The bonus is the folksy ambience at The Beehive food cart pod--a lovely little world of it's own-- read more

Butter Chicken, rice and naan were amazing. All came fresh and hot out of the kitchen. I'm guessing it won't be long before I try everything on the menu. read more

We ate at Little India last weekend in Salem, Oregon. Our waiter was a very kind young man whose mom cooks for the food cart. He was very accommodating and patient with us explaining the variety of foods, how they were prepared, etc. His mom cooked us up a fresh, tasty, delicious meal. We had garlic Naan along with our order of Saag and Curry. Yummy! I highly recommend Little India, we will be back!!! Thank you both very much. You're wonderful hospitality, great service, and phenomenal food is much appreciated! read more

Best Indian food in Salem by far! There butter chicken is on point with generous serving sizes and a definite repeat customer! read more

Best Indian food in Salem. The folks who run it are friendly and the food is delicious. We always call in our order so it's a quick operation to pick it up. I could eat their garlic nan every day for the rest of my life. Highly recommended. read more

Though I haven't had a TON of Indian food in my life, I've had quite a bit and this little food cart is probably my favorite thus far. Definitely my favorite in Oregon that I've tried. I've been back 3 times in the same week, and that's not something I do often. Highly recommended! Fish Pakora, Mattar Paneer and Garlic Naan is my go to order. If you're craving Indian and in the Salem area, this place will not disappoint. Made to order, always super delicious and friendly service. read more

this place is a true gem! Best Indian food I've tried so far in the USA, no joke. I've tried Indian food all over the US in my travels and none compete with this place! I am a die hard regular here ever since read more

You have read the other reviews, and I agree with the rest of them, this place serves some of the best Indian food in the area. Great people working the truck, and the naan was great, butter chicken was some of the best I have had, with perfect basmati rice. I live close by and I will be coming in frequently to get this, if they had a brick and mortar on the other side of town I would be trying to get this, consistently. I make this stuff at home every now and again, but I won't really anymore because this exists and is way better. Great portion sizes, and the price is sooo worth it. I just want to thank the gentleman working for making this food. Comfort, quality, great tasting food. read more

This place is absolutely delicious. I love their samosa and all of their vegetarian dishes. I try to eat here at least once a month, although it would be more frequent if they were located in West Salem. read more

This place is so good! The best Indian food I've found in Salem. Everything that my husband and I have tried we've loved!

I give four stars instead of five only because I'm not adequately familiar with the competition in Salem. Good people, servings that make 2-3 heavy lunches for a senior. Food seems to be cooked to order, definitely stove hot, and a wait of 10-15 minutes. I like pepper heat and when I specified "medium" I could sure taste some kick. Their scale seems to be accurate and if anything, understated. It's hard to judge, but those who describe the dishes as bland may be reacting to how delicate the seasonings are in many Eastern cuisines. Very likely, some of their offerings are more intriguing than others. I agree that garlic naan is a must. Never seen such a "simple" item done better. read more

My girlfriend and I have been craving Indian food very badly! And we happened to find this hidden gem. I ordered the butter chicken and she ordered the Korma veggie dish. The people were so friendly and the food was so amazing. We are looking forward to try other dishes next time. Oh and the one order of Garlic Naan bread was bigger than my face which was a huge bonus! read more

Very good Indian food at reasonable prices. Oregon has been disappointing so far in terms of Indian cuisine, this place definitely reconciles me with the experience. Everything in their curry tastes just right, and don't forget to order a garlic naan! read more
