Absolutely fantastic!! This has just been added to my rotation of regular places to visit when I am in Gulfport! The restaurant is very spacious and we did not have to wait for a table. Our server was very nice and super helpful answering questions and accommodating us. I ordered the chicken vindaloo and it was a tad spicy but so good! My partner ordered chicken tikka masala and he LOVED it. We also did an order of the fried naan and it was perfection. The portions are HUGE and everything is priced fairly. We had such a great experience and I cannot wait to visit again! read more

Orchid Authentic Indian Cuisine - Chicken Vindaloo and Chicken Tikka Masala - Indian Near Me - Gulfport, Mississippi

The food was great, I had placed a To-go order and like most places I do feel like the portions were smaller than what you would get if you dined in. That said the quality of food was definitely there, I wasn't disappointed at all. Everything tasted great and was very hot even when I got home from picking it up at the restaurant. 10/10 I'd definitely recommend. read more

We love Indian food and it is hard to find in Louisiana or Mississippi. Not only did we find a great place to eat but it comes in a Buffet style and it was good for buffet food. The menu is pretty expansive and cost is great. read more

There are three wonderful Indian restaurants on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Orchid was first. I highly suggest trying them all, you'll enjoy fine food cooked wonderfully and flavors that fill you with joy. Now, what does Orchid have to offer that makes it stick out? That's easy - a lunch buffet that provides patrons a chance to sample and enjoy a wide array of amazing food in a fabulous environment with a staff that's happy to explain the details and intricacies of each dish. I highly recommend this restaurant and even recommend it even higher to folks who have never sampled Indian cuisine. read more

This has become my favorite place to eat in Gulfport. Until recently I was a daytime buffet only customer. And I still love the buffet. What a treat!! The thought of the mango ice cream will wake you up at night. I have recently began ordering takeout in the evenings. Every single thing I order has been a grand slam. I have been not been disappointed yet. Their curries are so good I am about to start ordering them without the meat. Just as a bet to myself that I can for the first time in my 60 years as an unapologetic meat lover enjoy a vegetarian meal. Their na'an is amazing. Oh and by the way, the owner is incredibly nice and helpful with their extensive menu options. read more

To start off, me and my girlfriend have came to eat two times in one week which doesn't happen when we eat out but it really is THAT good . The service is amazing I believe it's the owner that serves his own tables but always so kind and patient when I had questions or doubts on stuff like the spice level which they work really well with . I love the mango lassi so much that's such a good drink i highly recommend as well as their chicken makhni and lamb jalfrezi . The restaurant is also really nice and dim lit like all other restaurants . 10/10 for everything read more

Delicious! My sister and I visited for the first time. We ordered off the menu, but ultimately found that everything we wanted to try was on their buffet. Luckily, they let us sample some of their sauces off the buffet. read more

Good food and good customer service and I will definitely come back soon and the service was nice

I have been ordering from here for 9 years. They discontinued delivery services and no longer value Togo orders. Was told 15 min waited 45 min for my Togo order told they were prioritizing dine in orders. Had to cancel order and multiple staff members were in front of building while I waited enjoying a smoke break. read more

Authentic for sure! I love spice but even medium was too hot for me lol. If you don't want your eyes watering and nose running, I recommend little spice . Otherwise, all the flavors of our currys were spot on. The garlic naan was delicious & so was the Mango Lassi read more

Walked in and wasn't sure they were open, but then was greeted by what seemed like the only person working there! He quickly got me sat and took my order, although there is not a buffet currently due to Covid, they have a nice lunch special that's three choices of dish with rice, naan and a dessert for $11 dining in. I got the brown curry, chicken vindaloo and Chana masala, all of which were delicious! I enjoyed having a few options to try, and the Chana masala was actually my favorite! The naan was warm and crispy and the dessert was a delicious mango treat! Overall I'm glad I stopped since I was wanting Indian food, it hit the spot! read more

Orchid Authentic Indian Cuisine - Lunch special - Indian Near Me - Gulfport, Mississippi

I have been coming to Orchid for years and I love the owner! He is so nice, and the service is perfect! I had a to-go order for samosas and I am one of those people that check my food before and after I take a bite. Unfortunately, my biggest fear came to life when I found a bug in my samosa. I had to immediately throw everything away. I care for everyone's health and also the owners business, but this had to told. Please be careful and watch what you eat anywhere always! I hope the owner can see it so he can get down to the bottom of it because I love this place. read more

Orchid Authentic Indian Cuisine - Vegetable samosa - Indian Near Me - Gulfport, Mississippi

Wow! A gem in Biloxi! Buffet lunch is $15 and dinner also offers more variety in terms of vegetarian or the favorites like butter chicken and chicken tikka masala (both which I had and thought they were exceptional!) the service is great and the oh wait - snap! The naan! Wow so good. Def a spot to hit up in Biloxi. Small restaurant but it fires it up on food and flavor! read more

We tried this restaurant for the first time and were very pleased with the service and food quality. It's hard to find good Indian restaurants but this one was great! The owner of the place is very pleasant to talk to and he was so generous with everything. He offered some nice selections of food for us and even provided so many things on the house. We were a party of 5, so he suggested 4-5 different dishes for us to try. We went with his recommendations. We got chicken curry, lamb curry, vegetable korma, palak paneer, and paneer tikka masala. I loved the lamb curry and vegetable korma the best but everything was very delicious and flavorful. Lamb was cooked just perfect and the curry was great. He gave us vegetable korma on the house because he wanted us to try it. I loved their Nimbu paani drink as well. It was refreshing. We also tried the chili naan, garlic naan and plain naan. All were so fresh and tasted so good. Then he gave us the mango kulfi for free as well as dessert along with couple of teas. I loved how nice the owner was and we chatted with him for some time too. It's rare to find this kind of excellent personalized service in big cities where I'm coming from. So we really appreciated our dinner there and would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Mississippi. read more

My wife and I had lunch here yesterday. We both had the buffet. If we return, I will definitely order from the menu because I like goat or lamb vindaloo or rogan josh. But I wanted to give a variety of items a taste. Everything was good. The okra masala was an interesting Indian/southern fusion. The Tikka was Tikka, the biryani was exactly that. The meal was inexpensive and the service was very good. We will likely return when in the area again. read more

Ordered take out a few nights ago. The chicken tikka I had was so dry and tasteless it may as well have been a chunk of white chalk that was painted red. The naan bread was good, the curry wasn't and had a citrus note to it that we didn't care for. Overall not worth the money spent and we won't go back. In an attempt to contact the owner to advise them of the issues we had we basically received the run around and were asked if this was the first time we tried Indian food as if tasteless and non edible food was supposed to be standard fare. Not a great first impression. read more

This place should be a MUCH BIGGER deal than it is. We asked the owner to surprise us. It was us and our three kids. He brought butter lamb and a vegetable curry with the cheese bread and garlic bread. Y'all. It doesn't look like a lot of food, but it eill FILL YOU UP. AND ITS SO DELICIOUS. We eat out so often, but this is one of the few times we've been truly sorry we couldn't fit more into our bellies! Do yourself a favor: bring your girlfriend, wife, boss, parents, whoever. I don't know if you can tell by the empty plates on our picture, but It's AMAZING. read more

Orchid Authentic Indian Cuisine - a table full of dishes - Indian Near Me - Gulfport, Mississippi

We had eaten at Orchid when it was in Teagarden Road and I saw where it had moved to Hardy Court Shopping Center. Orchid occupies a former restaurant location and while you know you are heading into an Indian restaurant, you still see the vestiges of the New Orleans bayou theme including corrugated metal through the restaurant, especially over the booths. This just didn't even seem Indian. After playing 20 questions I got a Lagunitas and the wife a sweet tea. We ordered Samosa Chaat for an appetizer. Let me tell you it was extremely good. A vegetable samosa with chick peas, cumin, cilantro. I'll get this as a meal next time. The wife ordered chili lamb noodles. But they were out of noodles and offered to make it with rice instead. She didn't care for it, saying the lamb was too gamy. I thought it was ok, but it wasn't spicy at all even though ordered that way. I ordered the goat vindaloo. We also got an order or garlic cilantro naan. You just have to have some. It was wonderful. We have been back again and again. Come see Mike and get a great meal. read more

Absolutely phenomenal. Authentic, delicious, and fresh. Will definitely return to try some other dishes. We were served by Mike and couldn't have been happier. He was so friendly and warm and helpful with trying to decide on what to order. Portions aren't huge but plenty for a full belly and leftovers. Bullet Naan Bread: 5/5. Perfect balance of chewy, crispy, and fluffy. The cilantro and jalapeño added some nice flavor and heat. The dipping sauces were interesting: one spicy and one sweet. Delicious! Chicken Shahi Korma: 5/5 shredded chicken in a sweet cashew tomato sauce. We were informed the sauce was sweetened with puréed raisins. Yum! Coconut Lamb: 5/5 generous serving of lamb in a yummy tomatoey subtly sweet sauce over tender basmati rice Come give this place a visit! You won't regret it! read more

The food was delicious. The staff was very glad to help. The restaurant was lovely. We went with some friends and had a really good time.

We used to love this place. We always get the same thing when we order...chicken tikka masala. But the last two times the food tasted like the recipe was changed. Now it's made with diced onions, bell pepper, and maybe mushrooms in it. The diced onions were crunchy. We always get one mild and one hot. They used to label the spicy so we could tell which is which. This time we couldn't tell and when we tasted, they both seemed the same spice level...hot! My wife cannot eat food that hot which is why we order MILD. Go back to the old recipe (and cook?). This one is not good. read more

When i go to Gulfport i try to swing by and grab to go. It is a good selection of delicious foods.

Came through the Gulfport area while we were scouting the area for homes. We were so excited to see an Indian restaurant in the area and had high hopes that perhaps the lack of Asian food in the area would be made up for by some exceptionally reviewed Indian food. We arrived and were seated immediately. Only one other table was being served. We had noticed in our travels that only a small percentage of folks in the area chose to wear masks but were admittedly surprised to see that businesses were not participating in taking precautions as our server roamed and served tables maskless. We ordered the Paneer65 to start, two orders of chicken korma and a tikka masala. To put it plainly, the food came out barely warm, the rice was stale and inedible. We tried. We wanted to love it. After a few tearful bites, we resigned our forks in sadness, paid the bill and left. Unfortunately, I doubt we will return. Sadly one of the most abyssmal dining experiences we've had in a very long time. read more

We went during lunch time on a weekend. The place had a pleasant atmosphere. We did the lunch buffet. The choices were so-so. I thought it was pretty neat that we were able to try different dishes for the price we've paid. The mango ice cream was really good. Would I personally go back? I unfortunately might not, but I would definitely let my friends know to give it a try. The dishes weren't a burst of flavors that my palate were hoping. Other than that, I would say give it a try and see if you're a fan. read more

Orchid Authentic Indian Cuisine - Lunch Buffet - Indian Near Me - Gulfport, Mississippi

Trying to be fair, but do not understand why people like this place. The food is just straight up not tasty, and it's the only Indian place on the gulf coast I know of which disappoints me. I know I'm kind of spoiled with Indian food because I moved down here a few months ago from a place with a multitude of better Indian restaurants. Anyway, I was trying to supply my craving for Indian food I ordered delivery from this place (so I cannot speak to the service). Nothing too fancy, just garlic naan, butter naan, and chicken tikka masala; practically just the basics (testing the waters before I'd order other things if I liked the place). My main problems lie with the food, and I will sound a little pedantic here, but I just really didn't like anything. First, I could not tell any difference between the two types of naan, which wasn't great. Second, the naan was way to moist and kinda soggy and doughy, and just didn't really taste great or cooked well. Thirdly, the chicken tikka masala was awful. It was way to watery, I could barely tell chicken chunks from veggie chunks as they shredded them all up too small, and it just didn't really taste great. Also their rice consistency and taste made it look like it was sitting in a rice cooker all day. This is the best Indian food the gulf coast has to offer? People down here really don't know a good Indian place then... Sorry if I was harsh, but that's what I though of the food. Won't be trying them again. read more

Food was a 10/10. Service was great, recommend great meals for us to start with which were amazing and the butter chicken was just out of this world. read more

I've had a lot of Indian food in my life, having spent 7 years living in England, and traveling all over the United States and eating Indian wherever I go. Saying all that, this is now one of my top 5 in the US. The Chicken Tikka Misala was amazing, a hint on the sweet side but delicious and cooked fresh. The jalapeño aka bullet naan bread was fresh and perfect. My wife had the coconut chicken with a garlic naan and it was also delicious.Highly recommended! read more

Buffet is the best deal you can get. Take out is a little pricey but the quality of the food is on par. Their butter naan is the best I've had so far of all the Indian cuisine restaurants I've tried. Would give 5 star rating if an entree with rice and naan didn't cost $20. read more

If you are into Indian fare this the place to eat. I have eaten their many times and have always enjoyed the food and service.

There's so much I could say about Orchid and the owner Michael! I had never tried Indian food before, but when I met Mike (at their previous location), he broke everything down for me! And their lunch buffet is second to none, delicious, fresh, well-seasoned chicken dishes, vegetable dishes, naan, and other wonderful dishes and treats, including dessert! My absolute favorite is the Chicken Korma! It's also a very peaceful place to enjoy a meal. I love that Mike and his staff take time to talk and get to know you! I can't say enough, it's truly wonderful all the way around! Definitely worth the drive as well! May God continue to bless Mike and his wonderful family! read more

Thursday Dinner: The prices are disgustingly expensive. I'm from California and I've never paid $$ for a small dish of curry. I ordered lamb tikki masala ($16). There was less than 2 ounces of meat and a lot more sauce to make the dish look full. Very upset. Lunch would be much better. I will not be returning for dinner!!! EDIT: Lunch buffet was a disappointment. Curry was watery and not thick like a traditional Indian cuisine. Second chance... And I am not recommending anyone spend $$ here. But if you're starving you'll be full, just not satisfied. read more

Cost was reasonable, but next time lunch buffet for sure-with 10 different dishes to try! Will be back again if not for lunch then dinner. read more
