Best Indian Restaurants in Bensonhurst

I first dined at Tamarind in 2000 or 2001, pre 9/11. They were at a different location then--smaller but also wonderful. This time at the Tamarind I was delighted by the same levels of hospitality and care, and I was impressed by the excellent staff who waited on each table. The food is spectacular! Try as many of the dishes as you can. I went for the tasting menu. The scallops were simply outstanding, as was the cauliflower. The lemon rice with all the fixings, and the desserts--the kulfi was out of this world --made for a perfect meal. Wonderful wonderful wonderful!

Indiian Table offers creative, perfectly presented, and delightful Indian dishes. The service is terrific, with great suggestions for pairing dishes and wines. It is a hidden neighborhood gem that we will visit again and again.

Nice Indian restaurant near Grove street path train.

Most of the food was really great, especially liked the Pani Puri, Dal, & lamb shank. Be warned though that there’s a 3% fee for credit card use and an automatic 20% gratuity for parties of 5 or more.

Took a while to receive our food, but when we did it was very good. We came here to celebrate a family birthday, and had to wait quite a while to receive our special dessert and candle thing. After we had seen another table get theirs. We ordered a second paratha, but by the time it came we had finished our food. That said, it was a pleasant dining experience and I would happily return.
