Indian restaurant

Mr. V · 04-27-2025, 01:00 PM

I recently discovered I really enjoy eating at Indian restaurants: there are quite a few to choose from here Out West, and I'll be looking for one next time I head east to the big lake for a visit.

But I can't seem to find any on Yelp in the area: Concord and Manchester for sure.

Are there any good Indian restaurants in the lakes region?

Love that butter chicken and aloo gobi.

Not much north of Concord. Lemon Grass in Center Harbor is mostly Thai food but has some curry. And the only other that I know of is in North Conway, Shalimar. Thankfully I work in Concord and can get both lunch and dinner from Curry Leaf.

Would love a good Indian restaurant in lakes region but not sure it could survive the winter

Try Durbar Square Restaurant in Portsmouth. Family owned Nepalese restaurant. We went there several years ago and enjoyed a delicious, spicy dinner. Maybe close to Indian?

The difference between Thai and Indian curries is that Thai is coconut based and Indian is onion. I prefer Indian.

The old Phu Jee in Meredith would make a convenient location.

A spicy vindaloo, please.

Nepalese food is good; similar but obviously different than Indian food.

In my experience it is less sauce based and more vegetarian: I enjoy both styles of cuisine.

There is a Taste of India in Dover. Although I haven’t been there yet, I saw they have won awards from food publications.
