Taste of India 316 East 4th Street, Bloomington, IN 47408

""Having just savored an exceptional meal at Taste of India, I am compelled to share my glowing review of this culinary gem. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was enveloped in the warm ambiance and greeted by friendly staff, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The menu at Taste of India is a masterpiece, offering a tantalizing array of dishes that showcase the rich and diverse flavors of Indian cuisine. Each dish I sampled was a masterpiece of culinary artistry, bursting with authentic spices and fresh ingredients. From the fragrant biryanis to the creamy curries and tandoori delights, every bite was a symphony of flavors that delighted my taste buds. Not only was the food exceptional, but the service was impeccable as well. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of perfection, attending to every need with grace and efficiency."

"I've been wanting to try this restaurant for a long time and we finally did. We walked in and was seated immediately. The restaurant was clean and colorful. Our server was courteous, pleasant, and attentive. Attentive. We also didn't know how to pronounce the dishes and he was very patient with us. We ordered the Butter naan, Chicken Makani, Shrimp Biryani and ot pictured, Chicken Pakora with a mint sauce and a tamarind sauce. Our food arrived quickly was hot and delicious. The first thing we got was the chicken pakora. I was fried chicken fingers with a chickpea batter. These were the best chicken fingers I ever ate. Moist, tender and delicious on their own but with the tamarind sauce they were excellent. The shrimp biryani was tasty and authentic. The shrimp was about 1 minute overcooked. This is not a big ding when you're cooking for the masses. Parking was easy. There's a lot behind the restaurant or you can park on the street. There was enough leftover for us to take home for dinner. The chicken makani was delicious. I could have ordered a dozen of the naan-bread and a gallon of the Makani and taken it home."

"Taste of India is a cultural gem, family friendly and open 365 days a year, offering a delightful lunch buffet at $14.99 and authentic menu cuisine. This family restaurant embraces standard ma and pa etiquette, making it cheaper to pay in cash, and they graciously serve complimentary naan when you dine in. As a member of the cultural and religious community, it has become a staple for me, providing comfort in times of happiness and need. Highly recommended for a genuine taste of Indian comfort food. The food isn't spicy unless you ask for it."

"Would give ten stars if possible. Ever walk down 4th Street Bloomington and smell something wonderful? It's most likely Taste of India. I would highly recommend stepping out of your usual food choices and try something new... Taste of India's food is my new addiction. I will be back time and time again. Great environment, great service, and such wonderfully tasting food. They even have lunch buffet options that are worth it."
