The Indian Curry Corner — Restaurant in New London

Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant. I feel like I got scammed.

I was browsing one of many food apps and I noticed a new Indian restaurant. Looking up reviews, I was surprised to see multiple 5 star reviews so soon after opening with some good looking photos. Only take-out is offered, so I decided to place an order and pick it up. It is located inside of a hotel close to the highway. I didn't notice any signage or instructions, but it was just inside the main entrance. It seems to be in the place of a former hotel bar/restaurant. My experience picking up the food was fine.

When I got home with my order, I was in disbelief with what I received. I ordered chicken roganjosh, tandoori malai broccoli and tandoori naan. The total order cost was $33.75.

To start, the "naan" was puzzling to say the least. I received half as much as your typical order. I say "naan" because the shape reminded me so strongly of store bought pita bread from the supermarket. There was no garnish and it had a texture I wasn't familiar with for naan. It also lacked any color that suggested it was cooked in a tandoor.

Next, the malai broccoli was interesting. It consisted of about 6 whole florets, cut up into various pieces. Almost all of the pieces were blackened beyond tasting roasted. The cheese/sauce that was on it was really thin, and had a strange flavor. I did get some mint chutney, which had a fresh and vibrant flavor. A small highlight for a sad appetizer. Perhaps it's not a dish for me, but I was still extremely disappointed with the quality for the price.

Finally, the chicken roganjosh. When I opened the container, I noticed the meat was dark. I received lamb instead of chicken - not the worst mix-up. The curry itself was a bit oily, but had good flavor. I tasted fresh spices and there was a nice garnish on top. The meat had good flavor and was tender. Unfortunately, the good flavor came with a strong saltiness that was too much for me. This dish came with rice, which was completely overcooked in appearance and texture, as well as void of any flavor or color. There was no evidence of cardamom, cumin seeds etc. It reminded me of instant rice.

The idea of a new competitor for Indian take-out in this area seems appealing, but Indian Curry Corner has completely missed the mark. There are multiple alternative options in the New London area with much higher quality, for comparable prices. The "naan" was an instant red flag which has me skeptical about the few positive experiences in my order.

Looking closer at the reviews, they seem to be of questionable authenticity. One even mentions a positive review for dining in, which is not offered currently. The appealing photos, upon a quick search, are generic and taken from the internet as well. Very suspicious.

I do not recommend this restaurant. I think this would be a rare exception where I would not give them a...

I heard of this restaurant yesterday morning while at work and immediately decided to go there for dinner. The restaurant can not be easily located because there are no signs, but it is located on the backside of the Regency Inn & Suites. Due to the history of that area, I felt slightly uncomfortable looking for the restaurant 😬– but once getting in the restaurant, I became relaxed and enjoyed the food. The owner has been a chef for 26 years, and that man can cook!!! The food was delicious (did not take any pics-I was ready to eat 😋) The spice level was up to par from my taste buds. The portions were fitting and brought home half of it. Both the owner & his wife were soooo nice and informative. I'm looking forward to telling others within my circles about this...

Overall, a great place to visit with family, dine-in option available. I visited there with my family and it was a great experience. Restaurant is situated inside a hotel and is managed by Chef Sam. Restaurant has a bar in case anyone is looking for hard drink options.

It is a pure Indian restaurant and there are lots of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. I ordered Dal Makhni, Panner Makhanwala, Chhole old Delhi style along with Naan. Main dishes are served with a portion of basmati rice. Food was great, and taste was authentic. Chhole took me down the memory lane as taste reminded me of Old Delhi.

Restaurant has dine-in facility with lots of sitting space. Ample parking spaces. I highly recommend this restaurant. I am sure you...
