Restaurante Indio Madrid | Haveli Madrid — Restaurant in Madrid

If you had Indian food before, avoid going here. We had a tikka masala that was sweet, yes, SWEET! And a chicken korma, that was also SWEET, no salty, not spicy, not curry flavored or any other possible Indian flavor, no, it was SWEET. The lachha paratha had no salt in it and that’s very easy to taste when the curries are sweet. Price-wise, 5.50 for one piece of Indian bread that was not even average is waaaay too much even for that neighborhood. And finally, the portions. For the amount of food served and the tastelessness of the food, I believe it’s too high and really not worth it. The service was incredible, the space is very nice and the whole ambience was absolutely perfect, but unless you wanna go for drinks and some lamb samosas (they were pretty good), I wouldn’t recommend wasting 35 euros per person to leave with a feeling of...

For the price being a bit higher I’d expect better. 3 visits in last 4 months and each time I’m brought boiled rice instead of pilau rice. (Only a € in difference). First times I was starving so I just ate it but the pilau always appeared on the bill. The curry was actually good except the chef needs to reduce the sugar as towards the end I felt it was too sweet. Milder curries that are sweetened are usually for curry first timers or the Spanish palate or the international visitors from the large hotel opposite. Been in total 10 times and always the free popodom is a nice touch but this didn’t happen today. Shame as this place as potential and needs someone to correct...

A memorable experience from start to finish. The space is very elegant, and the food is exceptional- far better than any other Indian food I’ve had in Spain. The cooks aren’t afraid of using spices and flavors that are more authentic (as opposed to other restaurants that may cater more to the Spanish/European taste for bland food), so of course the flavors are an adventure for the palate. The server explained that the food is Punjab style- and it is delicious. This restaurant deserves to be one of Madrid’s restaurant stars!
