My husband and I are huge Indian cuisine lovers! Every chance we get we try a new place in our travels. This week we are in Pensacola so we tried Dinner India for dinner, we were blown away!! I always get the lassi with my Indian dinner and their mango was perfect. Their tomato soup had the perfect heat, definitely recommend. The chicken mo mo had a stronger kick than expected but was paired with a tasty sauce. I always get a chicken Tikka masala and asked for spicy 4 and it didn’t disappoint, my taste buds were on fire in all the best ways! Delicious! Lamb Tikka masala is what my husband always goes for and he was so happy with his spicy 4 too. The garlic naan was perfectly crunchy too! We loved every single thing about our date night here.
Thank you for a delish meal!! Oh and the fun music videos on the TV too

This is the shadiest restaurant I have been to, I ordered Jeera Rice and Egg Fried Rice, and shockingly, both items turned out to be made from the exact same batch of jeera rice. They literally took the same jeera rice, added scrambled eggs to one portion, mixed it, and labeled it as “Egg Fried Rice.” So essentially I paid for two dishes but received the same food twice, just modified.
The Jeera Rice was extremely salty, the jeera was burnt which made it bitter, and the rice itself was dry, old-feeling and not fresh or aromatic at all. Proper jeera rice should be fluffy basmati with ghee-tempered cumin what I got tasted like a rushed, careless mix thrown together without any quality control.
The Egg Fried Rice tasted no different except for small pieces of egg. No wok flavor, no vegetables, no seasoning just jeera rice with egg added. It didn’t resemble authentic fried rice in any way.
For the price we pay, customers expect two separate dishes prepared properly, not one reused batch sold as two menu items. This felt like corner-cutting and disrespect to the customer.
I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves to be called out. The restaurant really needs to improve the quality, preparation care, and honesty in what they serve. I would not recommend ordering rice items here until standards improve.

Best Indian food I’ve ever had…originally from NYC and lived in a few other states!
I got the Goat Vindaloo. I asked for a 6/10 spice and it was perfect. I like spice but think biting into a fresh jalapeño is a bit too much. Flavor and texture were incredible.

Very tasty and authentic Indian food. Nice and friendly service. If you cannot eat very hot and spicy food, please order 1-3 out of 10 spicy level.

The food was Absolutely Amazing and the atmosphere was very welcoming!! Loved the Bollywood music videos on the TV also!! We drove from Orange Beach, AL and will definitely be back!!! 100% recommend to anyone who loves authentic Indian food!!

Took my wife for our date night lunch, and was not disappointed. The wide ranging menu included an extensive vegetarian selection which thrilled my wife. The Kadai Chicken I had was tangy spicy and delicious and the Garlic Cheese Naan was good enough to order more to bring home. We’ll be back.

Food has been incredible both times we’ve been here. I am a wimp so it was quite spicy for me at level 2, but don’t let that stop you from following your spicy heart. They will bring you an incredible yogurt sauce if anything is too hot. garlic naan and veggie samosas are superb!

I got the chicken vindaloo on a spice level 3. It was really savory and just spicy enough!

I recently moved here from California and was a bit worried I wouldn’t be able to find great Indian food—but I’m so glad I was wrong! This place is absolutely delicious. The spice level ranges from 1 to 10, and a 5 was the perfect balance of heat and flavor for me. Highly recommend if you’re craving authentic Indian cuisine!
