Royal Indian

The food here is super duper good; best Indian food we’ve had in the States. They are really creative with their dishes. I highly recommend the butter lobster: it’s like butter chicken but with that umami, flavorful lobster twist instead; a much better alternative. Their Lassi is also very good: more fruity mango flavor instead of the usual sugary overflow. We were recommended by a local to come here. Honestly, we didn’t have high expectations at first. But after eating here once, we were here again the next day dreaming about how good their food is. 100/10 super recommended!

Or food quality seems to be OK. There are some hits and misses. The Paneer was not good at all. It seems soggy and almost had a tofu consistency. The wine served seem to be even cheaper than what you ordered. Veg pakora was good. Overall, the quality of food was mediocre. Service was very good. Ambience is not up to the mark.

Good to see Indian food restaurant in bar harbor downtown. Ambience is decent and food is not authentic Indian. Tried few items but they are mediocre. Service is fast. Overall OK restaurant to go if you want try different cuisine when you are in vacation to Acadia or Bar harbor.

Royal Indian is a fantastic option to mix it up from the usual Lobster rolls in Bar Harbor. Since we were in Maine, we wanted to still get lobster, and it was really unique to have it in an Indian curry. Our food was delicious! We ordered the chicken Momos which were fantastic, and came with an awesome chutney to dip into! The Butter Lobster and Lobster Korma were great dishes! So much Lobster meat in very flavorful sauces with honestly good portion sizes! This was a great way to have Lobster in a different but super flavorful way. The patio area was a nice place to sit and we were able to have our dog right beside us! Service was quick and attentive without feeling rushed. Would definitely recommend!

The food is so good and tasty i recommend their daal soup specially if you visit on a rainy season, paired mine with lime and its perfect! Also ordered lamb tandoori and veg biryani , its the best. For appetizers i highly recommend garlic cheese naan or garlic naan. Authentic chai tea is also a must try. One of my fav food place we went to, had a great experience and got a chance to meet chef lemar, and our server ashma is the nicest .
