ASHOKA Indisches Restaurant — Restaurant in Hamburg

Extremely friendly service and delicious food. Reserved a table for a Friday night and upon arrival they were able to seat us 15 minutes early. I couldn’t find the full menu online anywhere, but there is something for everyone and the spice/heat level can be adjusted per dish. We shared a vegetarian starter that was a mix of onion and vegetable pakora, paneer, samosas, fresh veggies, and three chutneys with papadam, plus an order of garlic naan and two more sauces (I think these are complimentary?). We devoured it all and it had arrived very quickly. A waitress efficiently cleared our table and asked us if we wanted our remaining sauces and chutneys to be used on our mains, which we affirmed. Our mains, chicken saag and tikki masala, and came out soon after that with beautiful fragrant rice.

Somehow i convinced to get a table for 2 on a Friday evening and guess what, the restaurant had many empty tables throughout. Now the main part, food: there are many other indian restaurant which charges you less with better taste and probably better quality. Price of each and every item is 3-4 euros higher plus the quantity is lesser. E.g i paid way more for 200 ml Mango Lassi with a watery consistency. Even the main food was OKish. Would not recommend it as true Indian falvour. May be go once to try it out. Two stars are for ambiance and the polite...

Fantastic relaxing dining experience at this beautifully and tastefully decorated indian restaurant in the St. Pauli district.

Friendly and calm service, helpful in choosing.

We had papadam, naan, paneer pakora and main dishes. Everything was delicious.

As for spiciness, we chose medium spicy and "more than" medium spicy respectively, but in hindsight "medium" would have been sufficiently hot. My lips were numb 😂 you just never know in advance.

Considering that we shared everything with the exception of the main dishes, had neither coffee nor dessert, I felt this was a bit on the more expensive side. It...
