Ruchi Indian Restaurant in Frankfurt am Main

Superb food, only issue is with the dining area, they are the only restaurants in Frankfort who make real Indian food for indians. Not German Indian food

TooGoodToGo food was very bad and without sauce!

Hyderabadi chicken dum biryani or goat dum biryani very good taste

Food is okay. I liked the tandoori chicken and samosas. I really liked the fact that whole grain all purpose flour was used for the bread and samosa covering. Being a Hyderabadi, biryani was disappointing and no it is not close to being a Hyderabadi dum biryani though the meat was properly cooked and tender, the rest of the dish was just disappointing. I have to say the desserts, Gulab Jamun and Ras Malai were superb! Gulab Jamun was hot and very delicious. I also liked the mango lassi. The ambience is pretty mediocre. It needs a lot improvement.

I believe this is one of the few restaurants in the region that still prepares food in the traditional style. Their Naan, Biryani, and other dishes are truly authentic. The only issue is that the spice level tends to be very high and place to eat is just average. Lastly, their hospitality is truly great.

I visited this restaurant for first time and it was better than my expectations. Pros: 1) Very Polite and Friendly Staff 2) Chicken Biryani was good. I felt it a bit less spicy, but nothing worth complaining. 3) Very reasonably priced. 4) Tandoori Chicken was amazing. The quantity was less, but the taste made up for it 😋 5) Moong ka Halwa was amazing. By the looks, it was a bit on the lighter side but the taste was authentic. Perfect 👌🏻. I'd recommend Tandoori Chicken and Moong ka Halwa. 6) They accept card payment. 🙂 Cons: 1) Ambience is okayish... 2) Quantities were a bit less for the items I ordered. 3) Mango lassi was bad. It wasn't Authentic lassi you'll drink in India. But overall, this place is worth visiting.

As a ‘Hyderabadi’ myself, you’re going to get the most authentic Biryani there ever is in Europe here. The chefs are from Hyderabad and Guntur and know how to spice up the dish according to your ‘Indian’ buds. The place looks deceiving at first but after your first bite you’re convinced you’re at the right place. Definitely a visit and even more 😉

Delicious food, polite staff, I recommend).

Biriyani was too much spicy, full of chilli powder. The behavior of stuffs are also not good. I don't recommend it to others. The worst Indian restaurant that I ever visited in Europe. They are creating bad impression of Indian food.

Very spicy mutton Biryani with red chilli powder. It was impossible to eat. I took two spoon and then realise the burns in mouth and headache. They charge full money and did not offer other food.

Unfreundliche Leute. Haben 1.5 Stunden auf unser Essen , was schon vorher bestelltet gewartet und jedes Mal aufs Neue angelogen dass es in 5 min fertig sei

Food is good. But service is horrible. Do not recommend anyone to visit here

Ambience is like a road side Indian village hotel. Very small and inconvenient seating with few facing the toilet. Average food, friendly service

The food was good and almost authentic. However, the restaurant appeared cluttered and the toilets weren't clean. Overall, the restaurant needs more maintenance.

Food is superb, service can be improved.

Ordered for the second time and it was simply very, very tasty. Arrived still hot and the delivery person was a good man. Highly recommended.

Food is delicious, 👍 Service is nice but you have to ask often when the rest will arrive 😉 Ambiance can be improved a lot, but okay. 🫣

From a culinary perspective, a very authentic Indian dining experience. The lunch buffet is excellent from a price-performance perspective. In my opinion, Dum Chicken Biryani is the signature fish of the restaurant. The atmosphere is rather rustic, so the focus here is more on the food.

Had the best food in Germany on the last day of our vacation. Would highly recommend anyone who wants to have authentic Hyderabadi Biryani. Met the chef Cheeranjeevi and Rajashekar who were really friendly and served us the best food out of our 15 days in Europe.

Biriyanis on weekends are good. I have eaten here several times. Thinking it would be nice on Weekdays as well I ordered Lamm Biriyani via Lieferando. This is definitely not Dum biriyani. The onions they fried - were burnt and became black in colour. The whole biriyani had a burnt smell. How careless they are to customers. How long it takes to fry a new batch of onions. They completely ignored it and continued to cook with the burnt onions. I have to remove them one by one while eating. This is how they handle the food we eat, this is the respect they give for the food and the customers. Some basic respect for the business they do would ve been appreciated... Second point was - there were clearly 2 types of meat in the biriyani.. one type of Lamm was more like a steak, they just added some pieces of this in the biriyani made it like a fried rice and sell it as a dum biriyani. there is no ethical consideration for the food, for the business for the customers.. Done with Ruchi. Good bye,

The food was very tasty and the service was excellent! we will come more often! 🇦🇱🇦🇱

**Review: Amazing Hyderabad Biryani** I recently dined at here and was blown away by their Hyderabad biryani. The rice was perfectly cooked and filled with delicious spices. The meat was tender and flavorful, whether you choose chicken, mutton, or the vegetarian option. The biryani comes with a side of cooling raita and tangy mirchi ka salan, making the meal perfectly balanced. The restaurant's ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff is attentive and friendly. If you're a fan of Indian food or just looking to try something new, I highly recommend it for their amazing Hyderabad biryani. It's a must-try!

Really Nice place for Indian food in Frankfurt. The restaurant food is super authentic and the biryanis are really really good. Lassi is as if it has been imported from India. Mango lassi especially. The Samosas are not that good honestly. Do not taste like home. But the rest of the food is really good. The vibe of the restaurant is also super Indian with old songs playing on the TV in the background. Highly recommend.

Had a spontaneous meal before the concert, very tasty and plentiful. Price performance great

As always… super delicious!! Real Indian food 🩷

Nice Indian food Lassi - 4/5 Paneer bhurji - 3/5 Chicken Biryani - 5/5 Mutton Biryani - 5/5 Quality for biryani are good

Only Restaurant in Germany for past 14 years Serving Hyderabadi Biryani in and around Frankfurt (Germany). with great Taste feels like we are in Hyderabad when ever we visit the Restaurant. never missed out the hometown taste always pleasure to have food at Ruchi Restaurant

Hyderabadi dum biriyani is good. Of course, it's made to cater to the German taste palette. If you want more masala in your biriyani, go for the chicken tikka biriyani.

Excellent resto....mutton kheema is real usp....

As a Indian 🇮🇳 I feel happy to go there and have the food with the taste what I expect. Hope everyone can visit and enjoy the food 🥗.

The place has amazing and authentic chicken dum biryani, but the aesthetics can be better

Good Indian food. Goat biriyani is good and popular.

Taste was amazing, prepared the dishes as we requested. Reasonable prices and comfy atmosphere.

Very bad ambience and the briyani was not tasty.

This is the best place to have Indian foods .The staff is very good and the prices for food are good too.

I am not a great fan of their Biryani because it is spicy. But you can try their curries and rotis. Also their Haleem which you get during special occasion tastes good.

This is the worst store. The worst restaurant in Frankfurt. I kept waiting and my order and food never came. Maybe it's because they're understaffed or because they're prioritizing orders from Uber or something, but 20 minutes after I entered the restaurant, a staff member came to my table and ordered, and then I waited 50 minutes for my food to arrive. On the way, the customers at each table went to check with the staff, but there was no explanation and they just kept waiting. If you don't want to waste your time while traveling, I think it's better not to go.

Very tasty and fresh food. Perfectly seasoned.

I have ordered chicken fried rice and the taste was good at affordable price. Service was also good.

I tried their biriyani and chicken Samosa. If they say, it's 'spicy', then listen to them because it is. Biriyani is great there, I tried goat biriyani, chicken dum biriyani and chicken tikka biriyani. I loved chicken tikka biriyani the most. Chicken samosa was average with great mint chatni. Overall it was a great experience with food, the lighting and music there needs serious attention. They were playing trash bollywood mash up, which basically made the experience painful. Otherwise it's great for your pocket. Tschüss!

Veg Dum biryani was ok and my friends praised a lot about Chicken dum biryani and i think this place is quite famous for that only. I loved their Naan and Paneer kadhai and would for sure eat these things again here.

Nice place with authentic food. Service was late but everything else was good. Food was very delicious.

less cooked biryani rice, no baby chair ( seriously! ? ) & delayed service due to less staff :( you will be disappointed if you are looking for perfect hyderabadi biryani

Food was tasty bit was expecting a bit more for our wants and the brand this store has created. Hopefully soon in the future 👍🏻

We ordered catering service from this place and it’s the worse , I have been down with diahrrea after having vegetable dum biryani and not just me there are few others from the same party who fell sick after having food from here. God knows what kinda quality they have in the kitchen. I would suggest not going here. One of the worst experience I had in an Indian restaurant in Germany.

Basically a take out snack bar with some tables to dine in. It is worth since here you get authentic south indian Hyderabad cuisine, absolutely delicious whenever you come. That makes it the best indian restaurant in town.

Best Chicken dum Biryani’s Best Service

Super nice staff! Very nice service and fast! The food is very authentic and delicious. Always happy Price performance SUPER!

Food is delicious, lunch buffet 11.50€ pp. Service should be little better.

I'm always there for the Hyd chicken dum biryani but last 6 months the taste and quality is not at all good..it's not boiled at all, masala is not enough and not satisfied

Authentic south and North Indian cuisine , Biryani is awesome typical Hyderabadi style , and the place is quite easy to reach the Restaurant very near to Frankfurt Hauptbahnof Station

Chicken tikka masala was too creamy and less spicy than usual chicken tikka masala. Overall, the food was too salty and the chicken tikka biryani tasted sweet and overpowering with spice!

Awesome Indian delicacy with great tasting food. Try out this place for a spicy Andhra Biriyani. Must try if you are a spice lover.

One of the best Dum Biryani which is really tastes like hyd Dum Biryani. Thank you

It was overall a very bad experience as far as food is concerned. I had veg biryani at 12 pm and still it was not fresh, was probably heated in a microwave. Okay we understand that your food may be left over from previous day but aren't you supposed to serve fresh and warm food, esp. when customers come because of the reputation of your food?

Never expected that the chicken fried rice would taste this better. Gobi Manchurian tasted exactly like how it is. We felt happy and satisfied after the food. Thanks for such a tasty food. Will come again for sure :)

Super good food, people gentle and close to the station. Great for a train layover.

Great food and service! The paneer butter masala and veg samosas were delicious. Great portions for the cost.

Waited to 1 hour for the plates and 1 hour for the food🥲

Best Indian restaurant for the food, better for take away.. Ambience is not good

We ordered 2 biryanis. My husband ordered the less spicy chicken biryani and me- a spicy dum subz biryani. While the biryani was cooked in the traditional Hyderabadi style (unlike many restaurant that serve veggie stir-fried rice as biryani), something was still missing. Maybe it was the spice level, the Salan or just the special ingredient to take it to the next level. After having heard so much about this place, the food and the ambience just seemed like a letdown.

Essen ist sehr gut ich bin zu Frieden diese essen

Great service to deliver the order on time and really tasty food. Thanks

Fully satisfied and experienced almost the same taste even after 4 years.

Best place to test your luck. There is no guarantee that you’ll be tasting the same Biryani everyday. But most of the times the chef manages to do a great job. If you are lucky enough you’ll be tasting one of the finest chicken biryani available in Germany.

Die Inneneinrichtung läßt jeden Wunsch offen, echt runtergekommen. Der Service ist sehr freundlich und das Essen lecker. Nächstes Mal hole ich das Essen ab, weil ich darauf nicht verzichten möchte. 😉

Hello all, I'm from Germany and I've been dining in this restaurant for a couple of days, I tried many indian restaurant in france and Germany but, this is the best Indian restaurant I could find. I tried chicken starters, dum biryani and paneer starters, I say this is the only place I'd found that taste almost like india. I think they have the best dum biryani in the city and make sure you try their dum chicken biryani, the owners and staff seem pretty polite.

Bin eher durch Zufall in dieses Restaurant gelandet,und ich muss sagen ich war sehr positiv begeistert! Authentische Küche,nettes Personal und ein sehr freundlicher Gastgeber der Inhaber. Immer wieder gerne !

It's indian restaurant.. also very near to frankfurt hbf. So I recommend all Indians who live in frankfurt.. don't miss it

Excellent and tasty food. Authentic South Indian varieties. Great and friendly atmosphere and service. Our always first preference. Keep it up. 💯

The food is amazing and the service is great. However it will be too crowded in the busy times and it takes a lot of time to get your order.

Sehr leckeres Essen und sehr freundliche Bedienung. Die Wartezeiten sind kurz. Das Essen wird frisch zubereitet und das Biriyani und Naan sind sehr lecker. Die Lage ist sehr zentral und gut erreichbar.

Sehr gute authentische indische Küche. Täglich wechselndes Buffet.

Best Indian food in Frankfurt!!

Good Biryani but with pathetic service. They take 20-30 mins even to serve a single Biryani. No luck even if you call in advance. I will prefer other joints which value customer’s time.

Food was simply superb.. i like chicken and goat Biryani very much..chicken tandoori is really good

By far the best Hyderabadi Biryani I had as a westerner in Frankfurt and the surrounding area. Simply mouth watering. Although the place itself is in a bit shady part of the town and not particularly clean.

Authentic Hyderabadi briyani but less spicy

Best authentic indian food.. best in price and best in taste.. recomended...

It was a great experience.. infact I always go to this restaurant whenever I visit Frankfurt.

Authentic Hyderabadi biryani is available here. Even vegetarian Dum biryani is available everyday and tastes really good.

Das Essen war hervorragend! Ich bin mit einer Freundin am Laden vorbeigegangen als wir gesehen haben, dass er sehr gut besucht war. Wir haben uns den Egg Dum Biryani Bratreis und das Palak Paneer bestellt - beides sehr zu empfehlen! Für den Fall, dass man nicht so gut scharf verträgt, wird zu dem Bratreis eine Minz-Joghurt-Soße bereitgestellt. Abgesehen davon, dass wir nach der Bestellung noch einmal an unsere Getränke erinnern mussten, waren wir rundum zufrieden!

This Restaurant is 100% GO-TO place for Lunch or Dinner if you are @ Frankfurt Main. The food is superb, delicious. Most important - the owners are down to earth, ever ready to serve. Once, we reached just around closing time but their welcome with smile made the difference. Waiting for my next trip....and next meal at Ruchi's !

We ordered paneer kadhai and dal makhni, trust me it was really delicious. I would highly recommend all the Indians to go here if you're missing some authentic Indian food.

I ordered chicken friend rice and it took around 20 min.

Very tasty! Only the staff kindness could be improved.

War dort zum ersten mal indisch essen. Hatte einmal das Chilly Chicken mit einer Mangolsssi und ein Curry. Das Lokal wirkt authentisch Indisch als auch die Speisen und Getränke. Preis Leistung ist auch gut. Wer indisch ausprobieren mag kann ich Ruchi nur empfehlen.

A real taste of Indian foods available. I had dumbiryani and Chili chicken. It was very nice and awesome

Worst tasteless food ever I had tried. Staffs behaviour was very very rude. I would recommend customers please don’t visit this place don’t order food from this place don’t waste your money. Staff and Owner are so rude to customers. 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Das Essen war sehr gut allerdings habe ich nur vegetarische Gerichte probiert. Das Ambiente ist sehr einfach und passt gut zum mal mit Freunden essen gehen aber nicht für ein schickes Abendessen. Die Preis-Leistung stimmt.

I have ordered Biryani it had no flavour. The rice was full of oil. Wish i could have given minus star, if it is applicable. Men’s toilet was unhygienic. Table was not cleaned, when i asked to clean the table, the waiter behaved rude. After finish eating, i try to pay through my credit card, but the paying machine was not acceptable, even my friend was trying it was not acceptable, then the person said, its not working anymore. we got pissed off and settled the cash and moved away. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to visit this place. waste of money. #wasteofmoney; #unhygienic; #ricewasoil

Kein weltbewegendes kulinarisches Ereignis, aber für Frankfurt recht passabel. Das Restaurant ist einfach gehalten, liegt im Bahnhofsviertel (während des Essens beobachteten wir, wie Drogenabhängige auf der anderen Straßenseite Päckchen mit pudrigem weißen Inhalt unter einem Pflasterstein hervorholten - eine Top-Adressse für verdeckte Drogenfahnder -, und bei Nacht möchte man hier wirklich nicht unterwegs sein) und hat ausreichend große Portionen. Da offensichtlich die meisten Mahlzeiten im Umkreis geliefert werden, kann es zu Verzögerungen beim Servieren vor Ort kommen, worauf wir jedoch rechtzeitig hingewiesen wurden. Der aufmerksame Inhaber erkundigte sich immer wieder, ob alles in Ordnung sei.

Smakar bra lite ojämnt ibland super bra. Bra pris fegar lite med kryddorna om man gillar starkt. Inredningen är lite trist men det ingår.

TooGoodToGo - ziemliche Verarsche. Von einem 6,90€ BUFFET!! bekommt man einen Teller Reis ohne Huhn, ohne Lamm, ohne irgendwas. Reis für 4€! Reis! Ja Reis! Ohne Fleisch, nur Reis! Als Rest eines Buffets, was 6,90€ gekostet hat mit verschiedenem Fleisch und Reis!!

Wir bestellen öfter mal hier im Lockdown direkt. Über Facebook fand ich ein Pongal- Feiertagsmenü mit 5 verschiedenen Gerichten. Die Lieferung klapor einwandfrei und dann gibts Genuss pur. Sehr gut eingepackt, gute Portion, gut temperiert, sehr gut gewürzt. Herz was willst du mehr. Wir werden rundum satt, und freuen uns auf die neue Speisekarte, die bald fertig sein soll.

We tried a takeaway and were impressed by the authentic taste and fast delivery. The lamb rogan josh, chicken tikka biryani and chicken 65 were delicious and pretty spicy. We love Indian food and this is the best I have found in Frankfurt so far. The others tend to cater too much to the German palate (watered down and not authentic) or are over-expensive.

Hands down the most authentic Indian taste! A friend recommended this place and I ordered butter Chicken, dal tadka, paneer kadhai and tandoori chicken. I have eaten in multiple indian restaurants in Germany and i was starting to lose hope. This place nailed the taste perfectly. Every dish in its authentic Indian flavor. Nothing Westernised

Very good Hyderabad authentic biryani.Must try for all biryani lovers. Price is decent as well and not too costly.

My friends and I was in Frankfurt for a little Xmas getaway, coming from Switzerland where Indian food is a bit lacking, we decided to try Ruchi in addition to living adjacent to the restaurant. Walking in, we didn't have much high expectations but were definitely intrigued by the "all you can eat for 9.90 euros" which is nothing coming from Switzerland where a meal on average can cost more than 15 euros. That being said, we are also BIG eaters. I'm Malaysian and have lived abroad my entire life, tried various curries and indian cuisine and I must say Ruchi has earned a spot amongst the better ones. Ali was great, he was funny, and definitely knew how to connect with his guests cracking jokes here and there. This place was so good, we decided to celebrate our friend's 20th birthday there. Being students, my gf and I didn't really plan much, but midway through the dinner we thought it would've been great to have a cake. So we asked expecting nothing but to our surprise Ali made a phone call and got a cake freshly baked and delivered to us before the end of the meal. all in all, I will definitely make the 5 hour drive back up to Frankfurt for this place. you have my word.

Terrible customer service. Rude Staff Only caters to delivery orders. Cannot even bill the customer properly My friend and I left hungry after waiting for almost 2 hours for the dinner to arrive and asking them multiple times when the dinner would be served.Very disappointed by their service and behaviour.
