House of India Jena in Jena

The food here may be good and the servers are attentive, but the organization is a disaster. It was full that day, and we waited 90 minutes for our food! On top of that, the starter came after the main course. And we weren't asked if we wanted anything else to drink for the entire two hours. The food was good, but it doesn't do me much good if I have to wait forever.

Looks a bit unassuming from the outside. Nice restaurant with very friendly staff. The food is delicious. If it's not spicy enough for you, you can ask for green chili, and then you can decide how spicy you want it. I can highly recommend it; there's sure to be something for everyone here.

Super delicious food. Very friendly service. Highly recommended!!!!!!!

Friendly service and very good food with pleasant spices await you. However, warm clothing is recommended in winter.

Very tasty but on days like Valentine's Day the staff is totally overwhelmed.

Very nice atmosphere, but slightly longer waiting times. But it paid off: really tasty food, whether lamb, chicken or duck

Food tastes very good. The shots are the best!

Very tasty, highly recommended.

Always very good food. Absolutely recommended

The best Indian tea in town! Food is good, the spinach dishes are a bit lukewarm and the masala/tikka/curry/spice sauces etc. are very similar in taste, but all good. Prices at lunch are around €10 and in the evening around €15. The naan bread is very good, but only available at an additional cost of €2.90.

The food was very tasty 😋 and the employees were friendly. The restaurant is nicely decorated. The point is deducted because it was freezing cold and I've never felt so cold while eating out. It was really uncomfortable at the end.

The best go to Indian restaurant in jena. You get what you pay for. I have already been twice within a month of it's opening and we love the flavors and textures. It's nearly close to authentic Indian food.

Very long waiting time. After 2 hours the food came on the table. Not recommended.

OUTRAGEOUS! We were at the restaurant today (Valentine's Day). I ordered for 2 people at 5:30 p.m. We had the table right at the entrance, where the boss (who seemed completely overwhelmed) stood the whole time. We had a starter, main course and dessert - from 7 p.m. we were suddenly cashed in without asking, but since we didn't want anything more anyway and were just waiting for the dessert, we didn't care. But suddenly the boss came and said to us "Please go slowly, I need the table" - the shop was full, but the boss himself had occupied at least 5 tables after us without a reservation!, the waiter had forgotten to forward our ice cream order to the kitchen and so we had to wait over 20 minutes for the ice cream, we didn't care, but the boss came to US a second time! & said "it's better to go now, I really need the table, we'll redo the bill". - 2 minutes later our ice cream arrived. So, if you accept reservations, you can't seat people you actually need at tables & kick out the people with reservations. It's a real shame, but we won't be coming back. 👎🏼

As always, very friendly, nice and very tasty! :)

Super tasty, very quiet atmosphere and nice service! We'd love to come back!

Best Indian restaurant in Jena🫶🏽

Food is so authentic and even fine for everyone. Don't worry about spicy food. They prepare according to your preference. Overall a nice experience.

Thank you for the lovely evening and the many vitamins! ☺️

Very tasty food, would love to come back! P.S. The mango snap is fantastic ;)

The food was incredibly delicious. Unfortunately we had to wait about an hour for our food, but that's completely okay on a Friday evening.

Great food and very hospitable and courteous staff. Price-performance very good. We'd love to come back :)

Super nice service and delicious food. Highly recommended

Rude waiter, took a wrong order, didn’t even apologize. His logic is my friend said Panir but pointed at chicken. Total bullshit.

Delicious, delicious! Try the mango schnapps at the end!

Absolutely scary. I love it here. Totally pleasant and very cozy atmosphere. Can only be recommended. We are now regular customers.

Super tasty and very nice service! :)

Very friendly and entertaining service. Very relaxed atmosphere influenced by Indian culture.👌

Great food, great service. It was filled while we waited and the liqueur bottle was left at the table. Cool

A very nice and friendly restaurant. The food was super tasty. The portion is absolutely sufficient. All in all a very nice visit. We will definitely come back.

Very nice restaurant! Super nice service, delicious food and a cozy atmosphere. We'd love to come back! 😊

We were pleasantly surprised by both the food and the warmth of the service. Small extra requests were no problem and the food was great. The dishes are kept simple and without any ambitious ambitions but really well made. It's nice that there's now an Indian place in the city center that we like to go to. Good value for money. The ambience has improved significantly compared to the previous restaurant.

Very nice atmosphere, the food was very tasty and the staff is nice. Finally there were vitamins.

Food excellent! Service was nice, but with few guests it took quite a long time. The decor is nice, you should dress warmly in winter.

It was very tasty, I would try it again.😍👍

Delicious food, friendly service. Would love to come back.

Excellent food. Absolutely no ifs or buts. Since today it has been one of my top 5 in Germany. Recommended

Very good food and super friendly service!

Food was very tasty, came super quickly. The staff was super friendly and funny - we got schnapps on the house. Great class :)

Food and service incredibly friendly and highly recommended

Everything was great!! If you feel like Indian, this is a great place

Super delicious food! The salmon was recommended to us and we would order it again at any time. The mango schnapps is awesome - we'll be back!

Super delicious food! Great service and super friendly staff :) We even had an extra recommendation for the food. All around, a great experience and satisfying food. We go to bed happy and will definitely come back ❤️

Super friendly. Delicious food. Gladly again!

Very, very good food and everyone is very nice. 10/10

I ordered food for 25 people for a small function from here. The food was really tasty and all of them were really satisfied. I highly recommend this place. Best option for an Indian food in Jena.

Very tasty food and very friendly team.

Been here 4 times now and very satisfied every time.

Food OK. Service overwhelmed even though the store was empty. First the food came then the plates and then the cutlery. The invoice contained items that were not delivered. There are other Indians in Jena.

The food is very tasty and served quickly. The staff is also very friendly. Definitely recommended

Very tasty food and friendly service. The mango schnapps is delicious!

We were here on Saturday for the first time, but definitely not the last. Friendly people and very tasty food. However, we don't get full marks for the ambience. The restaurant is one large room, so it gets quite loud when it's full.

Very Good food 🥘 in jena 👍🏻👌🏻Good Good

Excellent food and absolutely lovely service. I can only recommend it, really great.

The food was excellent, we all really loved it! The employees there are super friendly and accommodating. It was a bit warm in there, but that wasn't a problem in the cold season.

Very tasty food and very nice service!

Tasted very good! Super delicious 🤤

Amazing food! Good atmosphere, great service.

We had dinner here with 30 singers from our choir. Everything good, everything delicious. 😊

Super nice atmosphere and such warm service! Fast and attentive! At the end we got some mango shots, super good!

Very cozy, great food and very friendly.

Very friendly and cozy. We had a lovely evening. Thank you very much for the great atmosphere!😊

Very tasty and super nice service.

Beautiful location, very friendly service and short waiting times and top food. In any case, the best Indian restaurant I've been to so far.

Fantastic food and very kind owners. We spent a wonderful evening with friends at their place! Highly recommended

Very nice service! Clean toilets and area!

Really nice place, the service was awesome, the food was very tasty with a traditional indian taste. 10/10

Highly recommended. A super stylish ambience with a harmonious atmosphere. The food tasted very good and the service was very friendly, as was the owner. Great, we'll be back.

Very tasty and friendly staff! 😎

Best place to have mutton malai kofta!!

Interesting room layout - from the outside you can only see the kitchen and have to go through a hallway to the back of the restaurant. The food tasted really good and the service tried very hard to keep us in a good mood. It was comfortable to sit. However, that was also necessary because we had to wait 1 hour for our food despite the restaurant being almost empty. A flatbread was missing but we didn't say anything because there was more than enough rice with it. All in all, recommendable and tasty but also with a little room for improvement above .

Great food, really tasty, not just hot, but spicy. Friendly service, but the waiting times are a little longer.

Food was really good and the service was very open and friendly. We'd love to come back.

Actually, I don't normally like eating Indian food, but here they convinced me so much, it was great. I'll be back!

Very nice service and the food is varied and super tasty! I would love to come here again!

Very great hospitality and super delicious food. Highly recommended 🥰

Super delicious food and very nice service 😋 we would be happy to come back.

Highly recommended! Super nice service. Very tasty! Gladly again! 👍🏻

Very good performance this is All foods

Highly recommended! We tried the menu here on Sunday for 3-course lunch. The Indian drinks “Yogi Tea” and “Mango Lassi” are particularly recommended. All courses were very tasty. A little caution and asking is required if you don't like coriander. The restaurant is very centrally located, but still quiet, as it is located in a courtyard on Johannisstrasse. It is beautifully designed with large murals. Unfortunately there were very few customers there. The service was good. The waiter was very friendly and reserved. The orders all came after a normal waiting time. Our 3 courses took a total of almost 2.5 hours. The only point of criticism was the beginning. We got to the restaurant and there was only 1 table occupied. No waiter watching. The next table already had cards but no drinks yet. After 10 minutes we got a card ourselves, which was at the entrance. After about 15 minutes we finally saw the waiter. He took the order at the next table and left again. Only after the neighboring table had been provided with drinks was our order taken, after about 20-25 minutes in the restaurant! Unfortunately, that's too long, as there were only two tables occupied by us. Given the delicious food, we'll definitely be back!

One of the ‘Do Not Visit’ restaurants in Jena. While I have no disrespect for the food itself, the long waiting time (at least 40-45 minutes after placing an order) leaves a negative impression that affects the overall dining experience. Think twice before visiting.

We had lunch there on a weekday. There is an extra lunch menu. The service was top and the food we ordered from the lunch menu was very tasty. The price-performance ratio is right.

Very friendly, pleasant surroundings, very good food, value for money absolutely OK.

Recently visited for the first time.. and this is going to our go-to place for enjoying a tasty Indian meal. The service is prompt and we left happy with a smile :)

Very long waiting time (35 minutes). If you have just come for dinner, the waiting time will take as long as cooking time at home. This is the first time I encounter something like this in an Indian restaurant, the waiting time is so long. I don't recommend it

The best Indian restaurant ever! Very good food, wonderful ambience and friendly service.

The food was good but the service and the venting system was not good enough. This can be improved.

Fantastic food, super tasty dishes and very fast service. I can only recommend Indian tea to everyone!!! I would love to come back. Definitely favorite Indian!!!!! 👌👌👌👌

The food is good, but the prices are unreasonably high compared to the quality and portion sizes.

Good food and friendly service. Fresh and quickly prepared

I just had a vegetarian takeaway. I have to say it was a dream and an extra plus point was that I didn't have to heat it up again after 45 minutes of transporting it myself, it was at the right eating temperature, which I didn't expect! The taste was very good and the ambience, at least outside, was very nice. So I highly recommend it!

This is a very nice Indian restaurant. In summer you can sit outside here very well. The food is very good and the price/performance ratio is right. The service is also very good and friendly. A clear recommendation for me.

Thank you for the recommendation from strangers on the street, it was a great experience. The taste as well as the rest are highly recommended and we would be happy to come back.

Amazing food.I always prefer house of india to satisfy my indian taste buds. Must visit!

Home away from home. Enjoyed some delicious food 😋 💕

Very nice people, good food and fast service. Thanks!

Delicious food, fast and nice service. Everything great :)

Tasty food, beautiful decor, and great, friendly service, for a very reasonable price!

Was there on a Friday evening. We waited quite a long time for food, so it's not recommended if you're hungry. But the waiters were very friendly and the food tasted very good. The portion was - considering the price - rather small, but still reasonable. As already mentioned in other reviews, you get free mango schnapps here, which actually tasted really good.
