Indian Basket Restaurant and Bar — Restaurant in Lusaka Province

Brand new Indian restaurant in town and of course it is located at a brand new "mall" right after munali mall. Upon entering the restaurant, you get to notice its colourful setup of mostly green and white. The place is clean and was not so loud with music(since it is also considered a bar). I enjoyed the waterfalls/fountain scene that the have by the wall. It seems interesting to look at especially when you see the plants and flower pots next to it. I played it safe with the food and ordered what I like best from any Indian restaurant, butter chicken. It was soft and tender but most of all flavourful. I enjoyed my garlic naan and the little gulab treats for dessert. I was not impressed with the "green salad" at all. The portion was large, yes, but it felt like they just threw in random vegetables that they had and made it a salad. Unfortunately that was the underwhelming part of my experience which I hope they take into consideration. The service was good, I made a call in advance to check if they had a few things available (they did not), but I was still impressed with how they handled my queries on the phone and overall service given to me while I dined there. Also had a lovely lunch that came with a 10% off my meal. They are still finding their balance and I'm sure they are still working on finding out what works for them as a restaurant so I'm optimistic that they will take the feedback given and...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Indian basket, and I must say, it was a truly exceptional experience. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect.

Firstly, the atmosphere was lovely. The restaurant had a warm and inviting ambiance, with tasteful decor and comfortable seating. It was clear that great care had been taken to create a welcoming space for diners.

But the real star of the show was the food. Every dish we ordered was expertly prepared, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. From the appetizers to the entrees to the desserts, every bite was a delight. It was clear that the kitchen staff were true masters of their craft.

What really set this restaurant apart, however, was the service. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the entire meal, making us feel like valued guests. The rest of the staff were equally welcoming, creating a truly memorable dining experience.

Overall, I cannot recommend Indian Basket highly enough. If you're looking for a truly exceptional dining experience, look no further. This restaurant is an absolute gem and should be at the top of everyone's...

Knocked off a star because my Chicken Mushroom Fried Rice came with just Chicken, Mushroom.

I ordered the Mutton with Nsima. At first, I was slightly pained at only having one vegetable. Beyond this, it was simple cabbage, which I am not too partial to. My initial impression of the stew was that the strong aroma although absolutely tantalising, was likely overpowered with herbs and spices (aroma at the expense of coherent taste); this is something that has plagued me when ordering from modern restaurants. I was completely wrong. The aroma matched the flavour, one ntongo in and I was blown away by how beautifully crafted this entire meal was. The cabbage was the perfect texture, the stew an amazing blend of mildly spicy, rich umai and meaty flavour. The Mutton? Amazingly tender and tasty. The length of my review shows just how satisfied I was with my meal. Absolute culinary...
