India Palace | Garhoud

Sometimes it’s the food, sometimes it’s the place, but here it’s the palace that makes everything click. India Palace has been one of my favourite Indian restaurants in Dubai for so long, I couldn’t possibly remember.

Serving an incredible variety of Indian dishes that highlight the foods of royalty from the country,  India Palace is also well known for the palatial ambience that the restaurant flaunts. Whether it’s their intricate woodwork, their oxidized gold and copper dishes or the choodi-wala at the entrance, everything gives you a very Rajasthan-esque feel, making it an ideal choice for experiencing royal dining.

For our dinner, we started off a papa complimentary papad basket and a couple of drinks from their limited time mango menu – Mango lassi & Mango juice. This was accompanied with Sunheri Jheenga – butterflied tiger prawns marinated in a mix of chili, lemon and coriander and fried coated in rawa to a crisp perfection.

For tandoor, we went straight to the mixed grill called Tarah Tarah ke Kebab that featured an assortment of the Mughlai styled Shahi Seekh Kebab, spicy Murgh Tikka Joshila, creamy Murgh Malai Tikka, garlicky Lasuni Machchi and ajwain roasted prawns in Samunder ke Ratan.

Our main was a classic Hyderabadi dum styled Murgh Masala Biryani layered with succulent chicken pieces and basmati rice in a spicy masala-rich marinade.

We went back to the mango menu for dessert and chose to indulge in Mango Ras Malai, promising ourselves to return soon and try out their Mango Falooda as well.

India Palace has a bunch of different outlets located across the UAE so regardless of which emirate you stay in, you can definitely try out the impressive Indian cuisine at this restaurant.
