I haven't had Indian in a while and this was a pleasant way to revisit it. Lunch was really good. I had the lunch special which was meat, rice, salad (or soup, your choice) and naan. The food was just right. Clean bathrooms are always a must. This place did have that. Service was really slow. We weren't in a hurry, but there didn't seem to be any reason for why they were so slow. Overall, it was okay. Dining out is just not worth it anymore. It's too expensive. I'd rather spend my money on many other things, but this is true of all places, not just this one. read more

I've been to Monsoon a few times for work lunches. It definitely has the type of vibe that is presentable enough to bring coworkers/business partners to lunch. It is very well decorated and quite peaceful. It also has a bar for anyone who wants to grab a drink or two! I've tried their curry, butter chicken, vindaloo, and lentil soup and have enjoyed all of them so far. Their tandoori chicken is always a showstopper and I always regret not ordering it lol. And although this is not something I typically include in my reviews, I find their women's restroom really nice and fascinating (lol): eyecatching marble, bidets in the toilets, and an all-in-one wash faucet with a mirror. My only gripe is their service does run a little slow even if there aren't any other guests in the restaurant (or even if you order the "express" lunch), likely because they also work on a lot of to-go orders on the side. However the food is always made fresh and is delicious. Highly recommend! read more

Why is this place not full on a Friday night? AMAZING FOOD and quick and efficient service. Visiting the area for work and happened upon this place after doing some research. Everything was fresh and tasted amazing. I had the mulligatawny soup, samosa chaat and shrimp korma. My eyes were bigger than my stomach and I ended up boxing a good amount of food up for later. The portions were big and the food was very tasty. The samosa chaat was my favorite. I also got a mango lassi to help cool the burn (no burn because I got it mild). I would recommend this place to anyone who likes authentic Indian food. It's tucked away in a shopping plaza with a Sam's Club & Wallyworld near by. It's cute and cozy and the service is friendly. What are you waiting for?! GO! read more

A Sensory Delight at Monsoon Eclectic Modern Indian Restaurant My close girlfriend and I finally made it to Monsoon Eclectic Modern Indian Restaurant for lunch on June 29, 2025--a visit we had been planning for about a month. We were looking for something quiet, tasteful, peaceful, and of course, delicious. This place did not disappoint. Although the restaurant is currently undergoing renovations (you have to enter through a side door instead of the front), the moment we stepped inside, we were warmly greeted and promptly seated. The service was outstanding from the beginning: water was poured, menus were handed out, and we were given time to settle in and decide. We started with the variety of chutneys appetizer, which came with five or six types of chutney paired with garlic naan. There was a mango chutney, a lemony citrus one, a green chutney, a deep red pickled chutney (which was my favorite), and a dark tamarind-like chutney, along with a cool cucumber yogurt sauce. The chutneys were flavorful and the naan was perfectly warm and chewy. My girlfriend ordered from the lunch menu, choosing the lamb tikka masala, which came with basmati rice, garlic naan, and her choice of soup or salad--she chose the soup. She also enjoyed a glass of wine. She rated her meal 10 out of 10, saying the lamb was tender, juicy, and absolutely delicious. I usually order butter chicken (my all-time favorite), but this time I stepped out of my comfort zone and went with a seafood stir fry dish--and I'm so glad I did. It featured salmon, crab meat, jumbo shrimp, and moist scallops, all seasoned with nuts, spices, and served over basmati rice. The colors were vibrant, the aroma was heavenly, and the taste was next level. Every bite had my taste buds doing backflips. I had plenty of leftovers--enough for two or three more meals. The waiter who recommended the dish was extremely helpful and encouraging--I'm thankful for that push! All of the staff were kind, polite, knowledgeable, and attentive. Even though they're renovating, you can already see that the decor is top tier. The flooring alone was mesmerizing before the remodel, so I can only imagine how stunning it'll be when it's complete. It's a great spot for any occasion--a quiet lunch, a dinner date, a birthday party, or even a business meeting. I've been to many Indian restaurants in the Hampton Roads area and beyond, and this one is easily among the best. Monsoon truly lives up to its name--eclectic, modern, and unforgettable. If you're a fan of Indian cuisine or just looking to try something new, do yourself a favor and come here. You won't be disappointed. If I could rate it higher than a 10, I would. This place gets a 100 from me. read more

This was indeed a great experience. We are visiting from Maryland and noticed this place while shopping at the Coliseum Center. It did not disappoint . They are doing some renovations on the place, but it is still quite lovely. We went at lunch and the prices are really reasonable. I had the salmon Marsala with a salad, basrati rice and naan bread for 16.95. My hubby had the chicken Marsala and he said it was great. We even had leftovers. read more

Monsoon is my favorite Indian restaurant by far! They have the very best chicken korma I've ever had and are very accommodating by adding no nuts to it so that I can have it because I'm allergic. The servers are very attentive, and the server assistants always keep your water full. Everyone is very polite and friendly and the atmosphere is calm but not too quiet. There's light music playing in the background. The kitchen staff always remains very appropriate and professional, especially since there's an open kitchen that's so important. I could eat their chicken korma every single day and so could the rest of my family lol! The prices are great too, and you get plenty of food. I drive an hour to get there and it read more

I ordered delivery today because I was visiting my mom and just got into town and didn't want to go out. Let me tell you, there is a reason this restaurant is still thriving and one reason is their Scallop dishes. Whether you dine in or have delivery, their scallops are a heads and shoulders above the rest of the restaurants I have visited in the area and up in New England! Taste, flavor, size and cooked to perfection! Definitely Happy with my delivery today. It got the spot! read more

This use to be my go to. Now, orders are frequently missing items. This has become common for this store.

I don't know much about this area, and a friend showed me Monsoon. I was pleased that it is Indian since I love Indian food. I got the lunch special of salad, saag and naan and washed it all down with a Prosecco. He got wings and samosas. Mine was delicious. Loved every bite and everything was well-portioned. Great service. Nice ambiance. Convenient corner restaurant in Peninsula Town Center of Hampton. I'd definitely come back. read more

I had high hopes for this restaurant and thought that they would have an amazing butter chicken (my favorite Indian dish) but was sadly let down. Not a very flavorful sauce. My husband had the spicy version and I tried the sauce and was a little bit more flavor but not the rich tomato butter sauce that I prefer. The other food we had was very good. We shared the assorted vegetarian appetizer plate and they were all delicious and came out hot. Very good tamarind sauce. The garlic naan was some of the best I have had locally and the rice was nice and fluffy. I had the chai tea and it was very good. I had never seen it come at any other Indian restaurant with a little biscotti. Cute touch! Service was great and very attentive. Waters were always refilled and they let us know right as we asked for a table that it would be a 45-1 hour wait due to the kitchen being backed up. We were in no rush so we were fine with the wait and appreciated the honesty. read more

While on a business trip, I was craving some Indian food close to my hotel and stumbled upon Monsoon's, located in a business section of Providence. The moment I walked in, I was struck by the upscale ambiance--it had a modern yet authentic Indian feel. The service here is excellent. I noticed a team-based approach where multiple staff members refilled my iced tea and water without me ever needing to ask. They were attentive without being overbearing, which I really appreciated. I started with the tandoori wings, and they were both visually impressive and flavorful--great way to kick off the meal! I also ordered garlic naan, and for the main course, I went with Chicken Tikka Masala (medium spice). The dish had just the right amount of heat to it! The presentation was fairly standard, but I liked how they served the rice and chicken separately, letting me control how much masala sauce I used. Overall, it was a delicious meal and a great experience. I'll definitely be returning to Monsoon's the next time I'm in town! read more

I went here for Restaurant Week. The food was good as was the service. I had the vegetable pakora, which is a fritter fried in lentil flour. It was tasty. I tried the chicken curry...first time having it and I was pleased. The flavors were simple, yet hearty and good. They have booths and tables so the ambiance works for date night, dinner with the family, and grabbing a bit with friends. For dessert, I had the gajar halwa, which is like a carrot pudding...very tasty! My friend had the gulab jamun, which were fried pastry balls (think donut holes in a honey syrup). read more

We have been to a handful of Indian restaurants and while this isn't the best one we've been to, it's still delicious. The service is a bit understaffed, which makes sense for the slower food service. I'd rather not sacrifice quality though, so the wait was alright. We ordered a handful of items; bread basket, cheese stuffed naan, vegetable pakoras, vegetable samosas and then our meals. Two of the three appetizers came out fast. The vegetable pakoras were better than the pakoras at our regular establishment. The naan was a little on the bland side. I prefer the garlic and herb covered naan where it's still slightly greasy from the olive oil and garlic. We had a small hiccup with service. The meals came out and one wasn't ours. No big deal, but it took a while for the actual item to come. After we were just about done eating, the cheese naan came out. Which was not really worth ordering since it's just small pieces of cream cheese inside the bread. The meals were good. A number 3 on the spice scale was just right for someone who likes spicy. 5 would have killed me. The only real complaint about my specific meal was it said it was cream cheese and almond paste chicken, but it just tasted like a grilled chicken. A good grilled chicken, but I guess I expected maybe a creamy sauce or more cheese. It was tasty, but I must have misinterpreted the menu. All of us enjoyed our meals. We could have had the appetizers a bit later since the food took so long, but it gave us time for more talking among the table. The staff did bring water all the time and kept the drinks refilled, so that's a plus. Overall, I would try out other items next time just to see, but the food was good. read more

I've been suggested this restaurant a few times and my wife and I finally made it. I don't know why it took us so long to get here! Aniket was our server and he was fantastic. Gave me a wonderful suggestion of Patiala Shahi Goat and it couldn't have been a better suggestion. My wife had the chicken mango with no spicy, because my wife doesn't like spicy. The only thing to make this dish better would be spice. The restaurant was clean, aesthetically pleasing and we can't wait to go back! read more

Lovely ambiance. Staff were intensely attentive and seemed to work together really well to monitor customers' food, drinks and general needs. This was my first Indian restaurant, and I loved it! I had the $25 dinner menu for restaurant week with vegetable pakora, chicken tikka masala & kheer rice pudding. What a great order! Highly recommend, but I didn't love the rice pudding. I ate the entire vegetable pakora and took half my chicken home, where I nibbled for a midnight snack and then ate the rest for brunch the next day. It was just as good. I love the naan bread. Overall, I'm so glad I tried something new for restaurant week. I will be back! read more

This is so far the best Indian food in the Hampton roads area I've had. I went for lunch today and they offer a lunch special which comes with Na'an bread, basmati rice, a main dish and either the soup or salad of the day. I ordered the cauliflower soup which had ginger and some roasted garlic. It was slightly spicy. For this place I would say a 2. Their spice scale is 1-5. I also got the lamb tikka misawa, spice level four. The flapper of the sauce was very good. But the lamb. It was cooked to perfection. The Na'an was amazing as well. I cannot complain about the food flavor and portion was perfect for the lunch special. Decor is very nice and the facilities, including the bathroom are clean. Some of the staff spoke very little English which is fine just be prepared to use body language. My only complaint is the price. My dish only had like 6 or 7 pieces of bite sized meat and the soup was very small. The lunch special was around $15 so it's not bad but I would have expected a little more meat. Overall worth the experience and great food. Service was excellent. read more

Monsoon is a great option for Indian cuisine on the Peninsula. I've been here a dozen times or so and the taste and flavor never disappoint. The service today was a very subpar, but knowing it's not always like today, I would certainly eat here again. We stopped in for lunch and they were quite busy with dine-in and take out orders. We browsed the lunch menu, which has great selections and is also reasonably priced. We waited at least 10 minutes to place our order, and my drink arrived sometime after my salad. The salad was simple, but so delicious because of the dressing. My husband had the lentil soup. For the entrees, they arrived about 30 minutes after our order was placed. I had chicken palak (level 1 for spice) and my husband had the Lamb Seekh Kabob (level 2 for spice). It comes with a side of basmati rice and plenty of naan. The food was absolutely delicious! The serving size was plentiful, especially the naan, and the flavor was great. 4 STARS! Great food, but very slow service today. It certainly was not a quick bite to eat, but I'll definitely give them another try. read more

Haven't been here in years ... the flavor is still very good but the prices have gone up by 10-15%. Order dinner portion sizes and what I got was alarmingly small. Ordered the goat shai curry, lamb korma, and chicken curry. All dishes were very good but at about $18-$20 a dish I expected more. Not sure if they gave me lunch portions but these prices just aren't sustainable. read more

This visit was the first time we've been back to Monsoon in 2 years. Initially for this day, we were gonna go to Park Lane Tavern to eat out, but with them being packed and having a long wait on seating, we decided to head here for some Indian cuisines. It was less than packed with probably up to 5 tables being occupied, but for some reason, it took us 5 minutes to have someone come and take our orders. And once they were placed, we waited like over 30 minutes for food to come out. I know lately for restaurants, they have been limited with staff due to the pandemic. Also keep in mind, certain cuisines may take longer to cook. I admit I may be a bit harsh in my assessment and it has been a long time since we dined here. Then, the food came out steaming hot and ready. I ordered the chili chicken dish which is boneless chicken, bell peppers, onions, broccoli, tomatoes and spices (my spice level was a Level 2) and my girlfriend ordered mango chicken along with garlic naan bread for sharing. And of course, a heaping of basmati rice was on hand to go with both our dishes. Hot and a lot of spice to where my mouth was burning and nose running. That's where you know your dish is really good. Even though I thought the chicken was a bit overdone, the meal was really good. And you could use the bread as either for dipping or just go to as a side. Other than the long wait, it was a good night. It definitely won't prohibit us from coming back here at all. read more

I did a late dinner takeout here. I ordered the Butter Chicken (mild - as in not spicy) and Garlic Naan (with just the perfect amount of garlic and herbs). I have tried many Indian places, and honestly, this has been THE BEST butter chicken and garlic naan in the area...Some places make the butter chicken ("mild" as in spicy or has a kick, which I do not like), but here, it is not! Some places make the garlic naan....not garlic enough or there is no garlic...but here just perfect! Butter Chicken 10/10 Garlic Naan 10/10 Recommend here! read more

The food is great, but the service is all over the place. This used to be my favorite Indian spot but they have changed. They rush you to order, take the menu super fast, bring the check fast, the waiter took my half drank glass of coke from my hand when i asked for a refill as if they dont have any more cups in the back. Super uncomfortable experience, they also stop doing unlimited rice with your meal, you only get one refill and portions are way smaller now compared to 2yrs ago. Would not recommend this place for date if you want to sit down relax and talk with your date, they will rush you! read more

I made a catering order for a work event, and I was told to let them pack my car with the order. A nice gentleman did so. Ultimately, the main dishes and bread were lovely, but when I returned to work, I discovered that there was no rice. When I called, I was told that it was normal for rice not to come with it. Which, if you've ever had Indian food at a restaurant is...highly unlikely. So, I had to serve all this very (delicious), but liquidy food to my coworkers with no rice. If it's true that catering orders do not come with rice, then it would have been nice if I had been told that up front, so that I could have ordered some. read more

I was hesitant and skeptical when I saw "modern" as generally, I prefer traditional foods when it comes to cultural cuisines. The tandoori chicken and homemade ras malai made the difference for me. Even better, I received extra pieces of the dessert due to an error in not receiving them on my first visit. The salmon curry and shrimp masala were fresh and equally delish, but I prefer chicken or veg primarily and the garlic naan was a home run read more
