Indian Kitchen Bar & Grill

We have a favorite Indian restaurant in the West suburbs, but I think this is our new favorite one in St. Paul! Every dish was surprisingly delicious and flavorful. Between four of us, we had dal makhani, chana masala, baingan bartha, and shrimp makhani—and had some leftovers to bring back. We didn't get and drinks this time, but they had a nice selection. The staff was really nice and patient as we talked rather than decided what to order. The only thing that we didn't love was how thin and crispy the plain naan was, but it still tasted good. It was my husband's birthday, and they brought us some free mango ice cream at the end. Yum! Can't wait to go back or pick it up to go!

Indian Kitchen is one of the best Indian restaurants we have been to in the Twin Cities. We stopped here on a whim, out for a drive and thinking maybe we would try somewhere new. We noticed that Indian Kitchen was open and stopped in, intrigued and ready for anything. Staff were polite, greeting us kindly and quickly seating us in a nice, clean booth. The menu is extensive! When we finally made our decisions, the orders came quickly and were absolutely delicious, every bite. We enjoyed the appetizers greatly, the sampler platter offering a variety of tastes and textures. The main dishes were filling, and we ended up bringing a good deal home to eat the next day. We have since ordered several orders to go and found the quality to be consistent. Definitely stop by for the amazing good and

Picked up a to go order, didn't love the default tip at 20% for take out... when I arrived, no one was at the front and a waiter and waitress were just chatting outside the kitchen but didn't bother to come over. After a few minutes a gentleman came over and handed me my order that had been sitting there. I had the beef and mushrooms, didn't look at all like the picture on the menu and came with rice which I wasn't expecting. I ordered it as a mild and thought it was ok. Perhaps a better experience for dine in....

Food is consistently excellent and they have some dishes you don’t often see at Indian restaurants here - the Amritsari Chole Kulche in the street foods sections is excellent - richly flavored chickpeas come with a buttered, spice bread and pickles. My usual go-to is Bainghan bharta and theirs is excellent. Would drink the green chutney by the gallon. Very nice staff and my order is always accurate. If you like spicy, order it a level hotter than you think. I’m thrilled to have this place in the neighborhood!

Easily the best Indian food I have had in the twin cities. Fresh, authentic and delicious. Great value. Had the tandoori dinner for two - not pictured: appetizer also.
