Svaad - The Indian Kitchen in Düsseldorf

We always order Indian food from this restaurant. They usually take about 20 minutes to deliver the food and the chicken tikka masala is delicious. Highly recommended!!

Food was ok, the quantity was quite manageable. The restaurant itself is beautiful, clean, well-kept.

The kitchen staff is very bad. They take time to bring the food. Their treatment is very bad. Only the kitchen staff.

One of the best Indians in Düsseldorf. At some times a lot of Indians eat here - a good sign. Price and service okay.

One of the best taste corner in Germany. Reasonable price with a large portion. No artificial taste/powder in their food. I'm always satisfied with the variety and quality of their products. Confirmed by my Indian friends as well. Their veg fired rice is my favorite. Recommended 😊

I never thought I’d experience my first taste of racism from fellow Indians, but here we are. I visited this restaurant with my German friend and the staff, who were also Indian (or so I assumed, given the cuisine and the fact that one wore a turban), chose to speak only in German to my friend while completely ignoring me. After some time, I had to ask if they could speak English, at which point they reluctantly acknowledged me. To top it off, when I requested the bill in English, they refused to acknowledge again, only providing it when my friend asked in German. While the food was decent, the treatment I received was far from welcoming and left me with an awkward and uncomfortable experience. Safe to say, I won’t be returning.

Svaad Indian Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine in Düsseldorf. The combination of delicious food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere makes it a standout choice in the city.

Pathetic service. Please don't ever try here. Food quality is poor. I would say worst.

Simply super authentic, even many Indian residents from Düsseldorf come to eat here. That's why it's normal to see people eating with their hands. The food is very very tasteful. But it is also very sharp. It has to be that way! Otherwise, treat yourself to mango lassi to cool down. My tip is the fried cauliflower starter.

Food quality deteriorated in weekend, wont suggest anyone to go over weekend as services also horrible in weekend.

The best Indian I've found in Germany so far. Great presentation and flavour, though it could definitely be spicier.

I have eaten chole bhature and Bhatura was not cooked even not puffed. It was raw. I am unsatisfied even I asked for onion they didn’t give and it was my first experience from the restaurant that they give u only one slice of onion. I was surprised only one slice of onion.(slice yes slice). They made the huge amount of bill but not satisfying. Need to improve a lot

Authentic Indian Food, friendly staff and best service

Service is very poor the service boy who was wearing glasses has no respect how to handle the customer how to respect customer he was trying to be friendly without knowing us and he commented on my friend in a very unprofessional way try to make him learn some respect and if want to be so friendly say him to work at a comedy show . If I go out to eat that means I expect food + respect so that’s all that matter .

One of the best Indian dishes I have eaten. Very well seasoned. Paneer tikka masala. Super friendly service and child friendly. Most of the time I only give negative reviews, but this store is really great 👍🏽

The guy with the glasses and the tattoo on his hand was way too open and made personal comments to my friend. He needs to behave and learn how to talk to his customers.

My dear friend, I don't want to eat any restaurant, I am not a service-oriented person, I am just a friend, I am requesting you to comment, I am not understanding why anyone has the right to comment on someone's personal life. a

Worth every penny, loved the food. People were great.

Swaad is one of the best Indian restaurants in NRW, offering incredible flavors with reasonable prices and generous portions. Though the variety of chaats is limited, hopefully, we’ll see more options added soon.

Delicious food and large selection.

One of famous Indian restaurant in Dusseldorf. Walking distance from Dusseldorf railway station. Great atmosphere, served authentic Indian food with great taste . Enjoyed dinner with my friends and recommended for food lovers.

The best served indian restaurant in Dusseldorf .

Service is exceptional , my top points are for service . But may be I can’t decide .. Food and drinks are also super delicious. I was served by Harry and Nidhi who were so gracious, attentive and positive . Honestly they reminded me of my time in Bombay . I highly recommended this place for authentic Indian cuisine

Amazing Indian Food, great atmosphere, lovely service. In my Top 5

Best Indian restaurant in Düsseldorf 💯

Today, on September 22nd, 24, I had a real Indian meal again after a long time, the food was really good, of course it depends on the cook and in Indian restaurants the cooks change very often. However, it was a little too spicy. Anyway, I had Chicken Biryani which was actually Biryani and not Pulav, Mango Lassi, Samsosa Chaat.

This restaurant is a hidden gem. It is in a prime area and serves delicious chicken fried rice. The staff was extremely friendly and the dish was so yummy we also got a parcel for later. They said that the quantity will be enough for one person but it was pleasantly huuuuge in quantity. The parcel was also done perfectly. It was nicely packed in a carton box with raita and onions. It is a 100% must visit.

We been dining at this restaurant regularly since moving to Germany. Taste wise this is the closest we have tasted when compared to restaurants back in India. The restaurant has a warm and welcoming atmosphere and the people who serve are friendly. They have both vegetarian and non vegetarian options. I would recommend this restaurant if you are in Düsseldorf area.

Best place to get authentic desi food in Düsseldorf!

Now we have new restaurant Svaad. Ambiance is good. We ordered Chicken and veg biryani. It’s very delicious, you can feel proper Dum Biryani. Must try…

Absolute favorite restaurant in Düsseldorf! Lots of Indians dine here (the best proof of authentic food:) Really excellent taste. Really cheap. Friendly service. Large selection of dishes and drinks. Perfect for private and business meals. Everyone was always excited. Tip: reserve a table on the weekend, it gets busy.

We visited this restaurant last week Saturday. The food was amazing and the service was fantastic. Special thanks to Mr. Harry who made good recommendations and made our evening special

verry genuine feeiling resturant with great food. recomended!

Great price, quality and, above all, willingness, unlike Schumacher, arrogant staff, we went there and were welcomed Bravo🙌🙌🙌👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

Authentic food at fair prices. Friendly and attentive service. Good value for money (main courses around €13-15). Delicious and authentically seasoned. Pleasantly spicy, still tolerable for Europeans. Lamb Vindaloo sauce was unfortunately a bit thin/watery and not enough meat, but still acceptable for €14.90. Food was served quickly. Lots of guests with Indian roots. Will definitely come back and try more dishes.

Earlier it was good. But now due to large footfall, services & food getting getting lower and lower

I was one of the few Germans this evening. Most of the guests seemed to be of Indian origin. So in my opinion it's a sign of quality that the cuisine is really Indian. And the “spicy” dishes are also highly recommended! ... for those who like it a little spicier, like me! 🤯😜 But everything is really delicious, I can only recommend it! 😁🥵😜 The lamb starter is missing from the selection below! Nice and spicy!

Food was good, specially Palak Paneer.

The food was quite good, although not a culinary sensation. What needs to be highlighted positively is the really hard-working, friendly service that accommodated every special request and looked after us well. You'll be happy to come back there. It would be nice if the tables were wiped down after each change of guests, which didn't happen during our visit and resulted in a somewhat sticky surface.

The food is good and the place is good as well. The only bad thing is that the washrooms are not kept clean!! Big disappointment.

Food very delicious Taste really good

Delicious South Indian Cuisine I recently tried some South Indian dishes and was truly impressed. Veg Biryani was perfectly cooked with aromatic basmati rice and fresh vegetables, packed with flavors that were light yet delicious. For non-vegetarians, the Chicken Biryani is a standout—juicy, tender chicken pieces mixed with fragrant rice and spices that make every bite amazing. The Butter Naan was soft, warm, and deliciously buttery, a perfect pairing with any curry or biryani. Highly recommend this place if you love authentic South Indian food. Great flavors, generous portions, and excellent quality!

An Indian restaurant with incredibly great food.

Worst experience in my life.Most of the Grill items like Lamb disches like Lamb Tikka and Jheenga Tandoori is not even sold anymore there but they still show them in menu on their website and menu.I had to order chicken tikka which i did not want to but since it was 2PM and other indian restaurant were closed othewise i would have not ordered anything.In Bindi masala there was almost all masala and 4-5 Bindi.I will prefer Mayur which is much much better.why dont they change their menu and remove those itmes which are not offered in their restaurant anymore ?

Fantastic food. Great service from very friendly personnel.

The food is amazing, and it is now my new favorite Indian restaurant in Düsseldorf! One of the best Indian restaurants in Düsseldorf! The food is quite authentic and moderately priced. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The wait time is about 30 minutes, but it's worth it. The portion size is plenty (or a little more) for one person, and it's much better than what is delivered to you. The food is spicy!!! But tastes good! I would definitely go again!👍👍

Absolutely amazing! The place is beautiful and staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. I love that you get a lot of food as well for the price. I am definitely going back👌

Excellent. Only authentic Indian restaurant in Germany. Svaad food svaadistham🌟♥️

The food Authentic Flavors and Warm Hospitality! I recently dined at Svaad, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for both casual dining and special occasions. The menu offers a wide range of authentic Indian dishes, and each one we tried was bursting with flavor. The butter chicken was creamy and rich, while the biryani had just the right amount of spice. The naan bread was soft and fresh, perfect for soaking up all the delicious sauces. What truly sets this place apart is the warm and attentive service. The staff made us feel right at home, guiding us through the menu and ensuring we had everything we needed. Overall Svaad is a must-visit for anyone who loves Indian food. We’ll definitely be returning soon!

Svaad in Düsseldorf offers an exceptional Indian dining experience with standout dishes like the Chicken Tandoori, which is perfectly spiced and grilled to juicy perfection. The Chicken Biryani is aromatic and flavorful, with tender pieces of chicken and fragrant rice that capture the essence of authentic Indian cuisine. The Gobi 65 is a delightful surprise, with crispy cauliflower and a rich, tangy seasoning that makes it a must-try. The warm ambiance and attentive service further elevate the dining experience, making Svaad a top choice for Indian food lovers.

Good food and friendly service. The portions were decently large and most of the items we ordered turned out to be delicious. The rice was fresh and the breads were really well done.

The food is good but the waiters are rude.

A bit rude service, there's no air ventilation in the place and you got the smell of the food instantly.

The dishes were delicious and in a fair portion. After all we were full and just because we ordered appetizers + entrees + garlic bread.

Very solid and authentic Indian, price performance is also very fair

If you see Indians eating at an Indian restaurant, it's probably good. Fast service and advice, delicious food.

Would recommend Chhole Bhature.

was wonderful. Must try. Worth it 🤩🤩🤩

Tasty Food like Indian Taste. Good to eat with Indian Spices we like the Food very much

Nicely done! Keep up the quality 👍

By far the best Indian restaurant in the Düsseldorf. Biryani is awesome, might be spicy for non-Indians but taste is incomparable!!!

Quantity are pretty much less but no compromise in Quality. Chicken and mutton were so tender and food was fresh. People working there are so friendly with respectful serving process. Great Ambient too!!

It is one of the best Indian restaurants in Dusseldorf. Their Biryanis are really good. Lassies (yoghut drink) and starters are also yumm. Price is quite reasonable.

Rating five stars as it's the best curry I've had in Düsseldorf, well Germany since I moved here from the UK. We had the Samosa, Chili Paneer, Lamb Rogan Josh and Dahl Makahni, and it was all delicious. My one slight disappointment was the thickness of the naan bread, although delicious I do like them to be a bit more pillowy. Im any case we will definitely be returning as I really want to try the biriyani.

Never expected that the Chicken Dumm Biryani will have a big quantity that you will feel soo full after having it. Taste was fine and affordable price. Loved it!!

So today we went to svaad with my in laws FROM India.. We ordered dum briyani which was good and I ordered choke bhature for me.. That was not at all good I started having stomachache no clue. May be oil Was not good as bhatura was too too oily.

Sizzling brownie was not sizzling. Just ice cream and brownie. Taste of other food was okayish

Excellent food. The service is quick but rather quiet. But we will definitely come back.

Great place with good food. We chose the chicken Tikka Massala and the Lamp Curry, excellent. The drinks are also very good to accompany your choice, a very good place I recommend. Friendly and good service.

Everything was perfect good was delicious we enjoyed lot THANKS SVAAD TEAM THANK YOU

Super nice staff and amazing food. The portions are also more than enough.

Indian Chinese was good. Naan and Tikka were authentic. Pani puri was very disappointing.

Food was ok , good atmosphere but unsatisfied with service

Authentic Indian food in Düsseldorf!

We ordered Palak paneer and Paneer butter masala, both were tasty but so so spicy! Even for me who tolerates a lot of spiciness it was a bit much. Sadly that's the only reason to order from another place from now on.

Great Indian food! Big portions and service was great :)

Traditional Indian food. Very flavorful. I recommend ordering the super delicious Mango Lassi, as some of the dishes are spicier than in other Indian restaurants. But that probably speaks for the fact that so many Indians visit this restaurant 😊 Service is on point and very accommodating. The second visit was not disappointing either.

Great place to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine. Must try Gobi Manchurian & Goat Dum Biryani

Chicken Biryani came a bit cold but the flavor is very good. Chicken tandoori was also very delicious.

Delicious. I can only recommend

We visited Svaad for the third time on Sunday and, as always, were very satisfied. It was pretty busy but we managed to get a table even without a reservation. There is also a large selection of vegetarian dishes. The portions are okay, we like to order naan bread and a mango lassi with it.

Went in search of authentic Indian biriyani and we totally loved the restaurant. Unfortunately on the day we went, we couldn’t get goat biriyani, but every single dish (chicken biriyani, chicken starters, paneer curry for my little one) we ordered was remarkably good. If such restaurants come up in South-West (something like Stuttgart) that would be great. The staff members were kind too (we liked our interaction with Saravanan). Kudos.

Spontaneously visited the restaurant with 13 people and everything went great. We got a table straight away and got drinks early. Food was super delicious. If I'm in Düsseldorf again, I'll come here again.

Good food, good atmosphere, good portions and quality. But.. the team could have paid more attention to the service. Tiny things can make a big difference. I hope the management takes a look at this.

Best biryani till date in germany, pakka hyderabadi restaurant!! Definetly you will not miss indian food when u get in here!!

I have only tried the chicken dum biryani here as of now, and it was fabulous. The biryani was packed with flavour and the meat was tender and succulent. The portion size is almost too much for one person, just the way they do it in India. The staff were extremely friendly and the service in general was very prompt. I will be back to try out other dishes, but the first visit has left me thoroughly impressed.

Cooking is an art and the cook at this restaurant has mastered it well!! My taste buds said 1000 thanks for every bite I took and I thoroughly enjoyed it.. Thanks for making such delicious food!! No doubt I will be visiting this restaurant often. The ambiance and service is pretty good as well!!

Great food, good service. Worth another visit

Their Chicken Biryani is the best.

Good Indian restaurant and nice staff

This place is probably one of the best Indian restaurant in the city. I’m not an expert of Indian food but I love what I ate. The service was excellent, they helped us a lot to choose and to understand more of the food. We even order some more to take away. We will coming here often!

Best Hyderabadi biryani out of Hyderabad (including India). Chicken and lamb biryani is ultimate but Vegetarian biryani is for some reason always over the top spicy which kills the rest of the flavors. I have tried all the biryanis from them but only the veg biryani is something I don't recommend. The flavour of veg biryani is very good and really reminds you of Hyderabad but that's only until 2 spoons. The moment you start enjoying the biryani, the spice hits you with a hammer and then you don't enjoy the biryani but only keep sipping water or cola. I highly recommend the chef to really reduce the spicy level of veg biryani. Because since last year, every time I ordered veg biryani I have struggled to finish it only because of spice level. Please bring down the heat of veg biryani to the chicken level and the vegetarians will also be able to enjoy real taste of biryani. Don't take revenge from veg people for eating veg biryani (biryani is never supposed to be veg. It's pulao).

Super delicious authentic Indian food, reminds me of my Indian host father. In particular, the slight spiciness of the dishes is perfect. Very nice service.

Nice, modern restaurant. We had chicken and lamb korma and although I've been to a few Indian restaurants I didn't recognize the korma as such. It wasn't sweet and mild at all but very spicy and the coconut note was missing along with the raisins. So either it was too authentic for my palate or it was off topic. I can't assess that. However, if you can hardly tolerate spiciness, you should be warned that it can also be found in extremely mild dishes. Unfortunately there was no (as I thought was typical) yogi tea, i.e. a spiced tea made from cinnamon, cloves, ginger, cardamom and pepper, which is usually served with milk and honey. Update: I was in India and I can say that this is surprisingly close to the original. The other restaurants simply sell very mild dishes adapted to European palates. Unfortunately, I don't understand why there isn't tea because it's common everywhere in India.

The best Indian food I’ve ever had in Düsseldorf so far👌👍👍

The food was delicious and high quality, but we were not served well and I liked that our non-Indian guests were given an explanation about the food and its spiciness, but overall it was worth a try and the prices were reasonable.

It is good option for having Indian food in Germany.

The taste was really good & the spice level is perfect for Hyderabad dum biryani. The price is also reasonable for the taste.

Once upon a time, this used to be one of our favourite places to order food. Extremely disappointed and sad that the quality of the food is no longer good. Why do you'll have to make your food so spicy that you almost want to kill your customers of the spice level. I usually like spicy food but this is an untolerable spice level that can cause customers to fall sick. Hoping to see the old svaad back!

Tasty food, great ambience, friendly staff! But what really makes this place stand out is that the dishes are served with just the right level of spice. Make sure to ask for the indian pickles (also known as achar) since it is not listed on the menu. As a plus, you can also watch the football matches there!
