If you're looking for an Indian restaurant that combines authentic flavors, warm hospitality, and a personal touch, look no further than Curry & Cumin in Munich. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine smiles and attentive service that made us feel right at home.
The Food: A Flavorful Journey The menu is a treasure trove of rich, aromatic dishes, but the Lamb Masala and Chicken Masala were absolute standouts! The lamb was tender, succulent, and cooked to perfection in a rich, spiced gravy that had just the right balance of heat and depth. The Chicken Masala was equally impressive—juicy pieces of chicken simmered in a creamy, flavorful sauce that paired beautifully with their fluffy, buttery naan.
And let’s not forget the Rasmalai—heavenly, melt-in-your-mouth dumplings soaked in sweet, saffron-infused milk. It was the perfect ending to an already incredible meal.
Service with a Personal Touch What truly set this restaurant apart was the exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed every bite, offering thoughtful recommendations and checking in just the right amount. The owner even stopped by our table to ask how we were liking the food—a small gesture that made the experience feel special and personalized.
Final Verdict If you love authentic Indian cuisine served with heart and passion, Curry & Cumin is a must-visit in Munich. Every dish was packed with flavor, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the service was impeccable. We’ll definitely be back for more!
Highly recommended: Lamb Masala, Chicken Masala,...
Read moreUpdate: the restaurant sent a notification to take down the review, wherein I had to show/provide proof of my visit. If not review would be taken down within 1 week. I wonder how many 1-star reviews are bullied in to being taken down like this.
I must say, I was heavily disappointed. I went there because of all the posts I was seeing on Instagram. Unfortunately, the dining experience was one of the worst. On the plus side, the drinks were good.
PS- none of the food we ordered was worth it and was below average.
Ordered Pani Puri and Chili chicken for starters - disappointed. Chili chicken was ok, but let down by the Pani Puri. I would not recommend it. For the mains we ordered from the house specials. We ordered butter chicken and naan. God!! That was a nightmare. The butter chicken was extremely salty. We sent it back immediately. The kitchen was happy to replace it. The naan we noticed was undercooked as well. Luckily for us they replaced the naan as well. The replacement was ok, but nothing special for a 'House special' and too sweet. Butter chicken is supposed to have a balance of sweetness and tangy-ness from the tomato sauce. Instead this was just sweet and creamy. We didn't finish our meal. We left. I don't normally give 1 star ratings, but this was one of the moments where all 3 of the dishes we ordered were not good. The service was decent, but bad food = bad mood.
I hope if I ever visit this restaurant again, the food...
