India Mahal Restaurant

Always delicious food here! The owner is so friendly, he'll remember you every time you come back! Here's always there and he'll always come and personally say hello and shake your hand. This is my go-to spot for Indian food in Chattanooga. The lunch buffet is great, just be aware it's only buffet for lunch and they close at 3pm. When it reopens after 5pm, you have to order dinner.

Delicious Indian food. Not overly spicy. Would recommend ordering medium over mild here. Owner is fantastic and makes every visit worthwhile. Prices can be a bit on the higher side but it's worth it in my opinion.

Place looks spectacular from the inside; however different from the perception gained viewing the outside. Careful with to go orders. They stuff one paper bag with as many full paper containers as possible, meaning your food will spill to ruin if you order more than 2 entrees. Request cardboard box if you must do to - go. One star until I stop having an issue with this. Can't enjoy the food if it's on the floor.

This is a really good restaurant. It's locally owned and run by a friendly family. They have a great lunch buffet. $10.99 for adults and $6.99 for children. I can't remember how to spell the Indian names of the dishes, but the food is delicious. Multiple vegetarian options that taste just as good as any meat dish, if not better. The vegetarian options are not just on there as an afterthought. I like the lentils and the spinach dish spooned over rice, with fresh naan bread to go with it. The outside appearance is a bit scary, and it's not a fancy place, but every time we've been there it's clean and they keep the dishes fresh and full on the buffet. Definitely recommend giving it a try.

Every visit to Chattanooga this is a must stop for us. They have the best Indian food in Tennessee that we have found (so far). The butter chicken is fantastic. It's big enough for me and my hubby to share along with two Naan breads. Super nice staff!! Give them a try!
