Holi - Indian Restaurant & Cocktail Bar in Köln

Everything was great! The food is delicious and always fresh. The service is attentive and it was a wonderful place to relax. We'll be back!

Delicious food served by very friendly people.

A flavor explosion! <3 We're thrilled and will be back!

It was absolutely delicious, and the service was very attentive and friendly.

The food was delicious and the service was excellent!

The food is good, but not outstanding. The sauces for the naan bread are unfortunately bottled (not freshly made), which is a drawback. Otherwise, everything seems to be freshly prepared and served relatively quickly and hot.

The food tastes delicious and the staff is very friendly.

The food was delicious and plentiful, and the cocktails were good too. The restaurant was a bit noisy, but we were there on a Friday evening.

Modern Indian restaurant. Food good, cocktails very good, service very friendly but a bit slow at first. A good choice. Price per meal between €25-30.

My visit to this Indian restaurant was generally okay, but it didn't quite meet my expectations. The appetizer was delicious, but it was served lukewarm, which was a bit disappointing. For my main course, I chose a lamb dish. Unfortunately, it had a rather strong mutton flavor and was somewhat dry. The accompanying sauces were decent, but in my opinion, they didn't differ significantly from those found in other Indian restaurants. The service was friendly and attentive, which is a definite plus. However, I couldn't fully understand why this restaurant is considered one of the best Indian restaurants in Cologne. The price-performance ratio also seemed a bit off to me, as the quality didn't quite justify the cost.

Great service! For all true Indian food lovers: It's yellowing Tali....🥰

A very nice restaurant and excellent food.

We had a family event there and ordered a lot of food including starters and some drinks. he food was good but for the price it was missing the last nuance to to be considered 5 stars. In the end it was rather a bit european friendly if you know what i mean. This is of course just a subjective opinion but i prefer the more spicy authentic street food. The service was quick, friendly and even granted us some a special request in the thali. The location looks cosy.

Very tasty and highly recommended!!

Overall, a lovely restaurant with a large selection of vegetarian and vegan main courses. The chutneys are delicious; I wish they were vegan. The restaurant is nicely decorated, but unfortunately, it can be quite noisy when it's full. The service was very friendly, and the food arrived very quickly.

Good selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes. Clearly labeled. The portions could have been a bit larger, but the quality of the food is very good. The service was very friendly, and the food arrived very quickly. I chose a medium-spicy dish, and it had a pleasant level of spiciness. The chutneys for the papadums are delicious. I'll gladly come back.

The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly!

Always delicious, impeccable service! However, the interior could definitely use a bit more Indian flair.

Foods was intersting presentation. It was beutifull and mysterious. Taste was great.

Based on the numerous positive reviews and the diverse and appealing menu, we chose this Indian restaurant – and we weren't disappointed. The food was delicious and the value for money was excellent. Our visit was made even more enjoyable by the attentive and very friendly staff. A restaurant we can wholeheartedly recommend and will definitely visit again.

If you like it spicy, this is the place for you. It takes some getting used to, and you have to like it, but it's absolutely delicious. The staff is very friendly, and there are short wait times. Perfect for a date :) We'll be back!

Excellent food. Great selection. Go for it!

Best Indian I have had ever. So fresh and well made! Good service.

The food was delicious, especially the butter chicken, which was excellent. The service was also very good.

Very tasty butter chicken and unusual vegetarian specialty Malai Tikka Chaap (rolled, stuffed tofu on a griddle with grilled vegetables)

I have to say, I've tried a lot of Indian food, and Holi just blew me away. I could rave about your food, or just let the facts speak for themselves: I moved near the restaurant four months ago and have gained 10 kg since then, and every gram has been worth it.

We went to Holi for dinner as a couple and were absolutely delighted. The service is incredibly friendly, very attentive, and quick. We felt the vegetarian appetizer platter was a bit pricey at €20, but the appetizers themselves were delicious. The naan bread and sauces were fantastic, and the main courses were also extremely tasty. I would have liked a little more white cheese in my curry-coconut sauce, but of course, that's a matter of personal taste. Highly recommended! The whole experience is just right 😊

Very good food, fast service, fair prices. It was my first time eating Indian food, and I will definitely do it again.

Holi shows that the really good Indian restaurants are not located in the center of Cologne.

Very nice, but a little too little

It was very delicious, and we especially recommend the mango lassi.

We had a delicious meal at this restaurant. The service was also very friendly and explained each dish very well.

Friendly staff, good Indian food, pleasant atmosphere

Delicious food! Very cozy! And great service!

It was very tasty, the staff was very friendly 👍🏿

Very, very delicious tomato soup

Everything was great. The food was delicious. Excellent service.

Incredibly delicious, very friendly staff, also great for families with children

Fantastic ambience, amazing food and great service , would highly recommend.

My favorite Indian restaurant: the food is truly delicious, the service friendly, and the atmosphere simple and cozy.

Super friendly service and good, authentic cuisine. We'll be back :)

Delicious food in a lovely atmosphere. Especially the dishes served in clay pots with incredibly tender meat. Highly recommended overall!

Delicious Indian specialties in Cologne-Brück, including a great selection for vegetarians and vegans. Tip: Medium spice is perfectly sufficient for Central European palates. 😉

The food was delicious, the paneer was perfectly cooked. The service was friendly and helpful. Definitely recommended.

Excellent cuisine, highly recommended! Tastes much better than the usual "standard" fare.

Very friendly service, delicious food. Thank you so much, we'll be back.

Nice ambience. Food was great. Small and cute space. Tables are a little small in size rest everything is good.

Delicious food. We'll definitely come back!

The food was amazing! Traditional cuisine at its finest. Sanni's service was very competent and excellent.

Lovely shop, delicious food, and great staff! ☺️

Very tasty, I just wish there was another dish with mint sauce (maybe I missed it?), otherwise excellent. The cocktail was great too! We'll definitely be back. Update 2025: I just had a delicious mint chicken, so I'm very satisfied!

An absolutely outstanding Indian restaurant! Holi in Cologne-Brück is a winner all around. The food is first-class: incredibly aromatic, perfectly seasoned, and noticeably freshly prepared. Every dish was a delight and definitely ranks among the best Indian food I've had in Cologne. The service is simply amazing: extremely friendly, attentive, and warm without being intrusive. Special praise goes to servers 33 and 35. Exceptionally professional, fast, and with genuine passion for their work. They truly make you feel welcome. Great ambiance, fantastic atmosphere, and an all-around perfect evening. Highly recommended. We'll definitely be back!

Great food and friendly service. We had a wonderful last evening in 2025 - thank you so much!

Very tasty Indian cuisine and friendly, attentive staff.

Very nice indian food. Anything you order is great.

It's always a pleasure to come here. Everything is top-notch, including vegan options. There's also a wide variety of dishes. And great cocktails.

Very friendly service and delicious food, even though my dish wasn't even on the menu and was only prepared for me upon request. 🙂

Delicious food, without much talking.

Delicious food and very friendly, efficient staff. We'll definitely be back!

What a fantastic New Year's Eve! A group of seven of us spontaneously decided to go out for dinner. Holi was the perfect choice! Huge compliments to the two servers, and the food was absolutely delicious! We'll be back :)

I'm very excited 👍🏼 Cheese naan on the 1

Had great food, ordered dal makhni, aloo palak and naans. Naans are good. Dal makhni is the best

A culinary delight. The best Indian restaurant around Cologne. Highly recommended.

Very friendly and delicious. I'd come back anytime.

A lovely place. The food is super delicious. The service is very friendly. If I lived in Cologne, I would eat here often. The waiters also speak some English here, and this is something you do not usually see in Germany.

How this place can have such good reviews is a complete mystery to me. We ordered. The chili chicken tasted like sweet and sour chicken and wasn't spicy at all (but neither were the other dishes). The paneer was burnt. The rice was bland and watery. The naan was okay, and so were the other dishes. But that's about it. Nothing special, and yet much more expensive than other restaurants.

Excellent food! I'd gladly come again!

Great food, great place and great service. Stopped here while driving to get Indian food. Glad we stopped here .

Delicious food, a variety of options, a pleasant atmosphere, and fast service. I would have preferred the music to be a bit louder, but I can easily imagine that some people might find it bothersome. I was here with my children for my birthday dinner, and it was a lovely evening. Thank you!

Absolutely delicious food with great vegan options. The cocktails are fantastic too!

A very appealing Indian restaurant, clean, and the service was friendly. I would gladly return!

The food was delicious, and the Indian tea was a real treat. The main course could have been a bit hotter. I'll definitely be back for a cocktail 🍹 😀

Enjoyed the atmosphere, had great selections for vegetarians and the service was quick!

Always happy to come back because of the friendly service, sensational food and good prices!

The food was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was lovely and pleasant. The staff was exceptionally friendly.

The food was delicious, and the background music was pleasant and fitting. The service was excellent, and the overall service was outstanding. I'd especially like to mention Sukh – he was very friendly, attentive, and provided great service. I give the restaurant 5 stars and will definitely come back.

We received very friendly service. The waiter, Sukh, was very kind. The food was 5 stars 🌟. We will visit you again soon. See you soon and Namaste!

Divine cuisine. The rating is absolutely justified. Service is very friendly.

Delicious! It's a shame we don't live closer.

As always, very friendly service and really delicious food.

Everything was great. Thanks for the recommendation, Number 61. Everything was delicious and the staff was very friendly.

We had a delicious meal and the service was always friendly. Orders were taken quickly and the food was served promptly. We'll definitely be back!

Very nice and clean restaurant 🥰

Clean restaurant, friendly service, everything was great.

Good Indian food, a wide selection, and an interesting drinks menu. The service was very friendly.

Food was delicious. The drinks were amazing and tasty. The service is friendly and respectful. Definitely recommend coming and checking this place out if you are visiting cologne.

Excellent, delicious food and superb service. We felt very comfortable.

The waiter with ID 33 was very nice…

Delicious food and very friendly service (33) Unfortunately, the room gets noisy quickly because it's open-plan and lacks soundproofing. This makes it less cozy.

Very friendly atmosphere, attentive service and delicious food. The mixed grill with fish is highly recommended.

Good service and delicious food!

Excellent service, as always (employee number 33) We'll gladly come again.

Absolutely delicious! Short wait and friendly staff :) Definitely recommend!

A simple atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly staff. One of the best Indian restaurants in Cologne.

We are very satisfied with the food. Highly recommended. Thank you very much.

Absolutely delicious! We ordered takeaway; the online ordering process was very straightforward, and the food arrived quickly. The portions are very generous, so there's enough left over for tomorrow, making the value for money excellent!

We made a special trip because the restaurant had such great reviews and we were really craving some good Indian food. It was worth it, and they were happy to accommodate our special requests! Absolutely delicious! Making a reservation is definitely recommended. The only downside was the restroom, but you don't spend much time there anyway.

Delicious food and good service

Beautifully designed, the food tastes great. The staff are very friendly and nice. Highly recommended.

Excellent food! The staff were very friendly, especially the waiters.
