This dish is a true testament to the restaurant's ability to bring authentic Indian flavors with a delightful New Orleans flair. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this coconut shrimp curry will leave you wanting more. Highly...

Delicious Indian food, cozy atmosphere, and stellar service! So happy to have this new addition to the Uptown food scene. It has historically been a pretty small pool of Indian restaurants where we could go in for a sit-down dinner service, and we were eager to try this new location of Aroma. We've enjoyed ordering from their original Downtown location, but the new Magazine street spot is much more convenient for us to go in for a sit-down meal. We went with 2 kids, parents, grandparents, ages ranging 7-75, and everyone left happy! Flavorful food (don't sleep on the Kaju chicken!!), generous portions, and a very attentive staff made for a wonderful evening. Look forward...

Aroma is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, the experience was fantastic. The food was simply wonderful—I had the tikka masala, and it was perfectly spiced, just the right balance of heat and flavor. Their naan was incredible—thin, not too thick, and absolutely perfect.

Beyond the food, the customer service was top-notch. Someone who seemed to be either the general manager or the owner personally came out to check on us and chat for a bit, which made the experience even more special.

This place is a 10/10 for me—highly recommend! I will...
