I enjoyed their Chicken Tika Masala and Naan bread over the weekend. My girlfriend is allergic to dairy so it was good to see that they had plenty of vegan options. The service was great. The waiter was very accommodating and knowledgeable about their menu. He made sure our water glasses were filled to the brim at all times.

The BEST indian food in Indianapolis. Family run this place cannot be beat for the lunch buffet or a full dinner menu. Great for carry out too.

The food is so delicious. The waiter take care of us very well. The food is authentic Punjabi cuisine. Every ontree is freshly prepared with a spice scale of our choice.Veg.Jalprezi and Veg. Briyani are my favourite dishes.

This is a great Indian restaurant. The food is delicious.
The samosas are wonderful. These are a must have.
Every entrée I’ve had from here has been full of that classic Indian flavor. Spice requests are spot on.
One thing I hate about some Indian places is the treatment of women patrons by the male staff. I get that it’s cultural, but come on! It’s 2016 and you’re in Broad Ripple. You can treat me with, let’s say, about 43% more respect.

Very delicious! They have a buffet lunch special for $ 7.80 with a lot of different options. The food is very flavorful and tasty. The atmosphere is very laid back, which is great. I can’t wait to come back here!

We have been here twice now. We came for Sunday lunch buffet last week and for dinner a few weeks before that. I highly recommend the buffet. While more mildly spiced than the regular menu items, it had a nice variety of vegetarian and meat dishes, including «goat on bone» at a very affordable price. The samosas and curried paneer were especially good. We also had good service and really liked food when we had dinner. The garlic nan is also really good.

Great Flavor, Spice and price!
Ordered the Lamb Vindiloo, as it is my go-​to dish to see if I will be a fan of an Indian restaurant and it was as good as I have had anywhere.

Delicious whether you decide to dine in or carry out! A favorite in our family for winter cabin fever escapes or nights I simply don’t want to cook. Consistently comforting. The Vegetarian Thali is my favorite gluttonous dish. (Enough for three meals!) A nice way to sample multiple vegetarian delights as there are three mains, naan, pakora, and samosa included. The kids love the chicken tikka masala. Friendly staff (we seem to consistently get the same waiter.) Close to home and close to my heart. Don’t ever go, India Garden.

Very good Indian food at a great price! My boyfriend and I were visiting Indy and were looking for good Indian food and we found it here. We had the buffet with curry chicken and nan. Excellent food that is on par with Dayton, Ohio’s Indian restaurants.

I really like the flat and crunchy tortilla-​type thing they serve. Mix with the sauces and go on a flavor trip. Got the chicken patkar as well – 5 pieces, came with extra sauce. You get a good kick when adding the sauce to the chicken. Servers were attentive, and food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Mango lassi was sweet, but not too sweet. Consistency was good throughout. The naan is a flat, garlic-​y, toasted, seasoned, yet soft bread. This one you’ll have to try with curry or other sauce for additional flavor. I got a half order of red chicken (3 legs, two wings). A half order is already big for me, so I’m glad I didn’t go full. Great amount of seasoning, spiciness, and a hint of lemon in every bite. Overall marvelous food and service!

Came back from South Korea a couple of months ago. And while it definitely isn’t the capital of Indian food it certainly had its fair share of good Indian restaurants due to its large indian population.
After coming back I’ve tasted a couple of Indian places but none reached my standards. Came upon India Garden by chance and while the taste was different it was still good food. The samosas were crispy and with just the right spice. Ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and it has been the beat I tasted so far here in Indiana. Declined the basmati rice, which looked delicious, and went for the Garlic Naan. It was a little bit too puffy but tasted great. The Mango Lassi was to die for. It had a very strong mango flavor which I really enjoyed.
Even though the food was great it looses a star because of its lack in service. Came in and there wasn’t anyone to receive guests. The food came out pretty quick but after that the server went to the back. Had to wait quite a while for him to come out to ask for the check. Then again, this won’t stop me from gping back.

First time trying Indian food. the food was interesting but service definitely lacked. There was a «wait to be seated» sign at the door but after waiting and seeing no one we seated ourselves. No one came to our table. When we walked to the buffet a server finally spoke to us and asked if we wanted anything besides water to drink. There was a variety of food and dessert dishes with labels and explanations of what was in the dish, which I really appreciated. Had my first and last experience with chutney! I liked the biryani rice and chicken curry.
I found it very odd how distant the servers were; I had to flag down the waiter for the check and I literally had to chase him down again to give him my card so I could leave!

I wi give it 5 stars because it is the best in Indy. Surely not in my top 10 outside of Indy, but always a solid meal. Love the cauliflower app and the chickpea curry (kofta maybe?). Can’t remember, but it is fantastic.

Never had Indian food before, so this was a new experience for me. The waiter recommended a vegetarian dish which was homemade cheese rolled in a veggie mix and served in a tomato based cream sauce. It was delicious! Also really loved the naan bread (msp?). The atmosphere is both casual and fancy at the same time. Nothing special about the building, which is in the Broad Ripple strip, but they have very nice plates, and the service is wonderful. I’ve never had a restaurant refill my water glass that frequently. Extremely affordable, and it was nice having a waiter suggest something to suit my tastes.

I went here today for a casual work meeting and over all I can’t complain.
The lunch buffet had solid options and was pretty decent in quality. It wasn’t the absolute freshest, but usually buffets aren’t so I’m not complaining, it still tasted decent. I’ve definitely had better Indian food, but if you’re in broad ripple and you need to satisfy your Indian food cravings than this place should do the trick.
I wasn’t by any means «wowed» by the food, but I would have still given four stars if the service had been better. Our server was very quiet and awkward. She was very cold in her demeanor and didn’t smile or say anything pretty much the entire time, it was odd. We felt a little anxious about asking for anything because she seemed a little stiff and inflexible. Not a very inviting feeling and I don’t think the staff cares if you come back or not. And I suppose they don’t have to worry about business because are on a busy street with a lot of for traffic so they don’t have to work hard to stay in business.

I have been to about 13 cities in India, and the food at India Garden is definitely competitive with the food I have had overseas. I grew up in Indianapolis and now live in Washington, but whenever I come back to Indianapolis, I always go to India Garden. Nothing compares to it in the nation’s capital.
The buffet is terrific, especially for vegetarians. Lots of options. Carnivores don’t miss out though– my daughter loves the tandoori chicken. I’ve been going here for easily 10 – 15 years. While the quality has gone down a little, it’s still among my favorite places in the world (literally) to eat Indian food.

Nom Nom! one of my favorites. nothing special as far as ambience per usual for indian restaurants. but, the food is always consistently good. the staff is always helpful and there is never a wait for a table. Prices are reasonable and obviously the best deal is the lunch buffet.

Mint chutney please. On everything. Especially that delicious thin and crispy bread you provide to start every meal off right. Next up after mint chutney, bring on the raisin sweet naan — just the way we had it in London for our first Indian meal ever.
India Garden highlights:
–great service
–could use some music during the quiet, non-​busy hours
–paneer masala is fantastic — between the creaminess and flavor-​packed cheese it’s a delight though and through
–loyal customer cards available
–lunch buffets
