Taste of India in Idar-Oberstein

We went here for dinner with family and our baby. The hosts were very accommodating and attentive. The dishes were explained and special features were pointed out. We were all extremely happy with our food and can only recommend the restaurant.

Food was very tasty and all the employees were very nice.

The best restaurant in Idar Oberstein 💯 %

The food is really tasty and the service is top. Absolutely nice and very good recommendations when ordering.

The service was very friendly. The food came very quickly and was very tasty.

The food here is always delicious, no matter what you order! Everything is totally fresh and lovingly prepared. Plus, the restaurant's small family is so nice and welcoming! We always feel completely comfortable here. Thank you! 🥰

Everything here tastes great! This has now become my regular restaurant and I have to eat Indian food here at least once a month. I've never been disappointed so far. The food is always fresh and delicious, you never have to wait long, the service is first class, the atmosphere is warm, and the prices are absolutely fair for the quality.

Very tasty food and an owner who takes a lot of time for his guests. Absolute recommendation!

Really GREAT food all around, and the customer service is immaculate! My favorite is the fried paneer, everything is always so fresh!

I was there yesterday with my girlfriend. Keller/boss was particularly nice and gave us his recommendations, taking our wishes into account. Food came quickly, not a long wait. We had a starter, chicken curry and naan bread, all delicious. A "greeting from the kitchen" with 3 sauces/dips was included free of charge. There was also a lassi for dessert. Price-performance ratio is also great. We were more than full. We'd love to come back.

Super delicious food, nice staff! If I had known how delicious it was here, I would have come here sooner!!!

Very tasty food, pleasant atmosphere and friendly owners/staff.

It was the first and not the last time there. Delicious. Price performance top. Everyone was very friendly and attentive.

Good Food Nice People Great Environment We will come back surely when we will be back in the town Keep it up Nice To Meet You All See You Sajan(Népal)

We have rarely had such excellent Indian food and would definitely come here more often if we lived nearby. Service, advice regarding vegan dishes, we felt very comfortable. You can tell that the chef loves his job. In any case, we were overeaten, but very happy.

I had dinner there yesterday with my daughter. We were surprised, the food was fantastic, the service was extremely friendly - there is something on the menu for everyone. Vegan, vegetarian and meat dishes are well-balanced and well-represented. We will definitely come back.

Insanely good Indian food! When asked, there were many more vegan options than were on the menu, super friendly owner, rarely have Indian food been so good! Absolute recommendation!

Extremely friendly, very clean, the food was excellent.

Best Indian food of my life. Just like that.

My wife and I happened to be guests at the Taste of India on January 9th, 2024, one of the few restaurants that were open at lunchtime in Idar-Oberstein. Located on a side street a little out of the way and rather inconspicuous from the outside, we were warmly greeted by the owner when we entered the restaurant. When choosing starters, he recommended the “Manchurian” dish, an absolute hit, as it turned out a short time later. The main course, lamb and chicken from the tandoor oven, were also delicious. We were offered another schnapps, which we declined. Overall, the stay was very good and the owner, who is a chef himself, always took the time to talk to us and introduce us to the Indian dishes. We'd love to come back.

I recently visited this nice restaurant with my girlfriend. I have rarely experienced such friendly service. And the food was super delicious. We would definitely like to come back. Thanks again for a really nice evening.

The restaurant doesn't look particularly appealing from the outside, but inside you're pleasantly surprised: new furniture, new flooring and a very friendly owner. The food was very tasty, I love the Indian spices. The starter “Manchurian” vegetable balls was recommended to me by the owner and tasted very good. For the main course we had “Chicken Karahi” and “Navaratan Korma”. Both meals were very tasty and, above all, very well seasoned, not too spicy or mild, as requested. I can absolutely recommend the restaurant and will definitely try the other dishes.

Everything was great from food to working stuff, I will highly recommend to everyone .

Very nice and friendly owners, food was delicious. Everything 👍🏼

Very tasty dishes, whether spicy or mild, with or without meat or vegan, you can tell the chef your wishes or simply order from the menu. Friendly service, cozy atmosphere and comfortable chairs. I've been here several times and each time I chose a different dish based on the boss's recommendation and what can I say, it was just great. The dish was not only wonderful in terms of taste but also visually. We'll definitely be back.

Great food, quick service, highly recommended

Very good , had the chicken Tikka masala and it was a great choice, check this place out if your in this town.

This place was so good! I'd love to go here again!

Food was good, but there was a long wait, service was good.

Very good service, good Indian food and simply recommended. I always come from a little further away especially just for this restaurant with my family and friends. The operators are also very receptive and friendly. I can only recommend it to everyone

Last week we had a delicious meal at Taste of India in Oberstein (Idar-Oberstein). Good portions, Good tasty dishes. In our opinion, recommended if you want to eat real Indian dishes.

The food was very good and the atmosphere was nice BUT there is inadequate food labeling for allergy sufferers. Had to leave my child's food (nut allergy) and asked for all the ingredients when asked Hence the few stars. If you are not an allergy sufferer...recommended It's a shame for the nice evening we planned 😢

Very good Indian cuisine. Everything here is freshly prepared by hand. Very nice and attentive service. The furnishings are also high quality. Unreservedly recommended.

Very tasty food, lots of choice and super friendly staff

The food is delicious !! The service was very friendly and helpful. Gladly again..

Everything perfect. From the fantastic food to the super nice owners. Everything was explained. Absolute recommendation. Anyone who has something to complain about here should look for the problem themselves.

Great restaurant. Nice boss and very friendly.... I can only recommend it very well👍💯💯💯💯

Very good food, pleasant atmosphere and reasonable prices, highly recommended

Error 1: mixed up with other table, we had to wait for more than 1 hour with 2 very hungry kids. Error 2: instead of saying there has been a mistake right away and give us something during our extensive waiting time, they just said it after the whole delay. Error 3: they said they had french fries and we ordered. But it appeared they had not. And the average portion is small compared to what we have in France, which is not known for being really large... The taste is good though. But the way they handled their scramble is unacceptable.

The food was very tasty and thanks to the very friendly advice, you can easily judge the level of spiciness of each dish yourself. This is how you can enjoy it even if you like spicy food. Thanks to the very successful spice combinations, the food is not heavy on the stomach. A visit is always worthwhile.

Very tasty food, friendly service, we would love to come back.

Super tasty food, nice owners, you get a nice explanation of exactly what you're ordering, great advice. After the meal there was Shani Pan Mukhwas for the breath which I found very nice! I have never eaten such delicious and authentic food here in the area! The whole stay was definitely an experience. We will be back!

Great food, lots of vegetarian options and vegan options. Staff is great!

"The best Indian restaurant in Idar-Oberstein, here the customer is still king! Here you can expect extremely courteous service, delicious dishes and a cozy atmosphere. Absolutely recommended!"

A nice, not too kitschy restaurant, with an extremely friendly operator who is happy to explain everything to you if you are not yet very familiar with Indian cuisine. His recommendations were great and almost all dishes can be prepared mildly here. The food was extremely tasty and we can say that we were completely satisfied here 😊😊😊👍

Very tasty, best Indian restaurant in the area! Owner also very friendly and accommodating

Super friendly service and delicious foods. Would go back any time. Thank you for the nice evening.

When the restaurant is busy, there is a lot of noise. Good food and nice people.

We love it here to Essen! We love eating here!

We were there with the family. Attentive, friendly service, nice ambience and very tasty food. The dishes are very nicely prepared. Highly Recommended. We will be back:)

A MUST-TRY FOR EVERY IDAR-OBERSTEINER. I ate with my family at the "Taste of India" restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised at the entrance to the restaurant. It was very nicely decorated, and not kitschy like every Indian restaurant, overcrowded with decorations and carpet. As we sat down, the owner came over to serve us. He also gave us an appetizer, a papadum with chutney for each person. A restaurant always has its weaknesses somewhere, I thought, but that wasn't the case this time. Everything went smoothly and the boss told us a lot of things about the restaurant. The hosts were very nice and the taste of the food cannot be described in words. It was a flavor explosion. Among other things, the atmosphere was very pleasant and we all felt comfortable in the very comfortable chairs. It was the first time, but definitely not the last time.

We discovered this restaurant during our vacation and were very satisfied. The boss was very friendly and accommodating. The dishes were all very tasty and the portion of rice with vegetables for the child was also very good. A big thank you for the good food and the great service!

Simply great, great food, great service

We were there with two “newbies” and three experienced Indian eaters. Very nice ambience, fantastic authentic food, very courteous service and advice, price-performance ratio perfectly fine. All in all, highly recommended!

Went there based on a recommendation. We received a very friendly welcome and were brought to the table. Because on a Monday the culinary delights in Idar Oberstein are probably paused, which everyone is entitled to. Great selection of dishes, I had a hard time deciding, but I ordered absolutely the right dishes. The main course, No. 83, was great. Nice aroma...we'll be back. Thank you for the hospitality

Absolutely the best Indian food ever ever. The service is superb. Love this place.

Great food at good prices in an authentic atmosphere (as I can judge it as an India layman). The service was always friendly and gave us good advice and explained what we were eating/ordering. We haven't been to a better Indian in the area.

INDIAN DELICACIES We have eaten at Taste of India several times and we enjoyed it very much every time. The food is authentically seasoned and always freshly prepared. Still, it doesn't take too long. For some of my friends and family members it was a real experience. Tip: The Mango Lassi with fresh mangoes is a treat that you can't miss. The restaurant's service is quick, friendly and explains the dishes if necessary. The ambience has an Indian touch and is extremely clean. We enjoyed our stay at Taste of India and will continue to come to enjoy the delicious Indian food.

Everything is great, even the lentil soup is better than China Thai and you didn't see it 😉

We were here for the first time. Delicious food, very nice staff. You will receive good advice if you have no experience with Indian cuisine. We'd love to come back.

Ordered takeaway for lunch and everyone was very happy. The taste is great and the price/performance ratio is totally fine. The boss was super friendly and also gave tips/recommendations. The restaurant itself is also very inviting, so I will definitely come back to eat there again.

The menu is full of tasty buds.I loved the food they cook. It was like i am eating home cooked food.Very very delicious. Will definitely come again.Its really have the Taste of India.....

Very tasty and friendly, we will be back

The taste is ok, but the next day I had food poisoning 🤮

Very good food, friendly service, price more than reasonable. Only recommended.

We visited this restaurant for the first time today. We received a very warm welcome, the owner is extremely friendly and was also able to give a great recommendation. The service was really top class. The food came very quickly and was really fantastic. In my opinion the best Indian restaurant in the city and can only be recommended!

Very friendly The taste is great and I can only recommend it

Very nice service, great selection and very good taste! Thank you for the lovely evening!

The food is great and the service is very nice and accommodating. Highly Recommended!

We called numerous times and no one ever answered. When we tried using WhatsApp Business, the message was read but no reply was received. It's a shame, I would have liked to try it...🤷🏼‍♀️

Super friendly service. If there is time, someone would be happy to explain something about the dishes. So don't be put off if you've never had Indian food before ♡ The food was hot and super tasty. We tried different appetizers with 5 people and we were all thrilled. The main courses were also really good. From vegetarian to non vegetarian. Something for everyone. Dessert couldn't be missed either. My favorite: Mango Lassi. It's classified as a non-alcoholic drink and definitely fits in 😉 Be sure to reserve tables in advance. On Saturday evening it was so full that there wasn't even room for two people at peak time. We will go there more often now ♡ Thanks

Das Essen ist fantastisch und der Service ist super. Es gibt so viele Gerichte aus denen man wählen kann und man kann schön sitzen.

Wir waren am Samstag mit der Familie dort. Tolles Essen und sehr nettes Personal. Ich hatte Lamm Korma und wir haben uns gemeinsam die gemischte vegetarische Vorspeisenplatte geteilt. Es hat alles wirklich fantastisch geschmeckt. Ich werde zu 100 Prozent wieder kommen.

Sehr lecker, top service und schöne atmosphere. Wir hatten butter chicker, fisch karahi und chicken tikka nawabi.

Mittlerweile bin ich dort fast Stammkunde. Das Essen ist jedes Mal wirklich wirklich gut. Ganz egal, ob ich vor Ort bestelle oder mir etwas zum Mitnehmen hole. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist überdurchschnittlich gut. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend und geht flexibel auf die Wünsche ein. Einfach richtig gute Gastgeber. Ich bestelle immer die Variante ,,scharf‘‘ und vertrage das ohne Probleme, wobei ich aber auch sagen muss, dass ich gerne etwas schärfer esse. ,,Mild‘‘ ist wirklich sehr sehr mild. Jedenfalls ist für jeden etwas dabei:)

Super Essen und die Besitzer sind sehr sehr freundlich. Absolute Empfehlung :)

Das Essen ist super lecker und sehr authentisch. Viel Auswahl an indischen Speisen. Sehr nettes, zuvorkommendes Personal. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Nettes Personal, super leckeres Essen.

Sehr gutes Essen und wirklich netter Chef erklärte uns das Essen und ist wirklich um das Wohlergehen seiner Gäste bemüht. Sehr zu empfehlen vielen Dank.

Echt super und sehr lecker. Essen ist seinen Preis wert und reichlich. Leider muss ich heute noch dazu schreiben das es nicht mehr so toll ist wie es mal war.😥😥 Zuviel Soße, kaum noch Fleisch und zuviel Reis. Auch der Mangolassi(Dessertgetränk) ist nicht mehr das was er mal war. Für 5 Würfelchen Hähnchenfleisch und viel Soße ohne Reis 14.90 € ist doch einwenig zu teuer.

Das Essen war hervorragend und die Arbeiter sind sehr Gastfreundlich.

Die Speisekarte ist reichhaltig und die Speisen sind dem europäischem Gaumen entsprechend etwas entschärft. Ausserdem ist das Personal sehr freundlich und erklärt auch unaufgefordert die Gerichte, die mir dann auch sehr gut geschmeckt haben. Zum Abschluss gibt es dann noch ein Gratis Obstschnaps oder Likör. Wer also mal etwas anderes speisen möchte, dem kann ich dieses Lokal empfehlen.

Habe was zum abholen bestellt. Hat auch alles super geklappt. Essen war geschmacklich gut, allerdings war der Saucenanteil im Verhältnis zum Reis sehr gering.

Das Restaurant ist zwar noch nicht lange da, aber nach 3-maligem Besuch muss ich feststellen, dass es, mit großem Abstand, das Beste der Stadt ist. Spartenübergreifend reicht dem Koch niemand das Wasser.

Ein Feuerwerk an Aromen!!! Toller Service, sensationelle indische Küche!!! Abaolute Empfehlung.

Besitzer sind total nett und empfehlen einem Gerichte, erzählen was es alles gibt. Sind sehr aufmerksam. Essen verdammt lecker! Muss man unbedingt probieren!!!

Ein versteckter Edelstein in Idar-Oberstein. Wir haben ausgezeichnet und ziemlich authentisch indisch gegessen. Modernes freundliches Ambiente. Ein sehr netter Gastgeber. Auf jeden Fall kommen wir wieder

Top Essen, sehr netter Inhaber, gibt einem auch Informationen über das Essen. Wir waren alle sehr zufrieden. Jeder Zeit wieder!

Super netter Inhaber und leckeres Essen

Essen super lecker, Personal sehr freundlich. Immer wieder gerne.

Das Essen war sehr lecker. Und der Service war auch gut. Wir waren nicht das letzte Mal da. Freuen uns schon auf unseren nächsten Besuch.

Veel keus uit de echte keuken van India. Tip voor Indiaas drankje: Lassie Mango. Ongelooflijk lekker fruit, melk drankje

War unser erster Besuch und waren sehr sehr zufrieden. Essen lecker und mehr als ausreichend.Service freundlich und aufmerksam.Werden aufjedenfall wieder kommen 😊

Sehr lecker. Sehr guter Service. Komme wieder

Ein super Restaurant. Wer unbedingt richtige Indische Küche essen möchte, der ist hier richtig. Aufjedenfall weiter zu empfehlen.

Wow. So stelle ich mir einen Kurztripp nach Indien in Idar-Oberstein vor. Angefangen beim sehr sympathischen Chef, der Empfehlungen ausspricht ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Über das Ambiente und die Inneneinrichtung die sehr geschmackvoll renoviert wurde. Und dann folgt das Highlight: das Essen. Zubereitet von einem indischen Koch, ohne Fertig-Gewürz-Mischungen. Alles frisch und genau mit der Geschmacksvielfalt die man sich bei indischem Essen wünscht. Eigentlich hat man Lust am nächsten Tag nochmal hinzugehen usw. bis man die Karte einmal rauf und runter gegessen hat.

Could not stop myself from visiting them again , really loved the warmth of the owner and family and really super tasty food . 100% perfect in terms of : SERVICE , QUALITY , TASTE .

Sehr leckeres Essen. Super nettes Personal. Wurden zu den Gerichten sehr gut beraten. Wir sind rundum zufrieden. Kann man nur weiter empfehlen.

Sehr netter und schneller Service, leckeres Essen und eine gemütliche Atmosphäre.
