How to choose safely

What to check before choosing indian restaurants in Abuja

Rankings are a starting point. For this category, these are the checks that most often separate a useful recommendation from a risky one.

  • Check recency

    Restaurants change fast. Recent reviews and photos matter more than old popularity signals.

  • Match the occasion

    Confirm ambience, parking, reservation rules, family-friendliness, and menu availability before going.

  • Watch consistency

    Repeated comments about service speed, cleanliness, portions, and pricing are more useful than one viral review.

    • salihu Z. ★★★★★ : We went for a Dinner of 50 people, we were the organizers. We used indoors. The management was very considerate and helpful, we got very good bargain for that number. The food was great, the services was good, more than 5 waiters were assigned to us. They provided sound equipment at our request. They even have a standby photographer if you need one.

    • Ayodeji A. ★★★★ : It's a decent restaurant with decent services. Their food is great compared to other restaurants and you'll find good customer services. I highly recommend. A 4-star because while I was cool with it, I wasn't necessarily impressed with the restaurant as a whole.
    • Y-Hama ★★★★ : A restaurant with a wonderful atmosphere, perfect for catching up with friends or spending quality time with a partner. The waiters are kind and attentive, and the service is excellent. I tried the Chicken Alfredo, and the creamy sauce paired perfectly with the rice—it was absolutely delicious.

Everything about the place is beautiful, the service was very good, and the waiters were nice and respectful. Honestly, the food was pretty okay, nothing too crazy. Except for the naan bread, the naan bread was absolutely divine. I would highly recommend anyone to try it if they go there.

    • Salau A. ★★★★★ : I loved every moment. Beautiful place with good food. Service is great too.
    • Vikas S. ★★★★ : Worst place to dine with family. The service is extremely poor, and the staff behave as if they have no training at all. Food quality is below average. We visited on a Friday evening and ordered Paneer Butter Masala, two garlic naans, and one veg pizza. It took 45 minutes just to receive the naan and curry. The waiter even brought an extra naan, claiming it comes with the curry. I mentioned that if we had been informed earlier, we would have ordered only one. He simply said “oh” and added that nothing could be done because the other naan was already being prepared. The curry looked like it was cooked and poured straight into the bowl with zero presentation. It was also too salty, and I informed the server. The worst part was the pizza, which arrived one hour after ordering—and even after such a long wait, it was disappointing. The base was hard and didn’t taste fresh. All of this happened even though the restaurant was almost empty, with only 3–4 tables occupied. We spent over 48,000₦ for just two people, and it felt like a complete waste. Really disappointed. I will never visit BnB again.

    • robotboy15 ★★★★★ : Might be our favorite restaurant in Abuja? We've been three or four times and also ordered for delivery. Fantastic food, impossibly large menu, and excellent, helpful staff. Wife and daughter love the butter chicken and veg samosas. I've tried a handful of paneer dishes, all excellent. Also a big Nigerian and Chinese menu, but aside from the shrimp dumplings (which daughter said were great), we've stuck to Indian. Prices are very reasonable for healthy servings. We love this place.
    • Abiba Y. ★★★★★ : As a Nigerian trying their Indian cuisine butter chicken and cheese Naan was absolutely delicious.

    • Success ★★★★★ : I had the pleasure of dining at De cascade by cilantro yesterday with my colleagues, and it was an unforgettable experience. The ambiance was stunning, with a beautifully designed interior that set the tone for a wonderful evening. The food was exceptional, with each dish expertly prepared and presented. I was impressed by the variety of options on the menu, and our server helped us navigate the choices with ease. But what truly made our experience stand out was the outstanding customer service. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly, ensuring that our glasses were always full and our needs were met. Special thanks goes to my superiors @Premier Source and my awesome QAs (Vee & Noble) for making the event a success. Overall, I highly recommend this place for any occasion. Rating: 5/5 stars Will I return? Absolutely!

    • maureen O. ★★★★★ : Masala Wahala is easily one of the most beautiful and 'cool' spots I’ve visited recently—the environment is absolutely stunning and perfect for photos. Unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to the decor. For an Indian restaurant, the flavors were underwhelming and just didn't meet my expectations, and the staff weren't very welcoming either. It’s a great place to go if you just want to enjoy the vibe, but if you’re looking for a top-tier meal, you might be disappointed.
    • Abiola O. ★★★★ : Lovely location for lunch with excellent customer service. Rita, who attended to us, was pleasant, has a beautiful smile and was readily available to us. The food was great! The ambience was soothing, green and beautiful but it needs a bit more air. Overall, I'll recommend the restaurant to anyone seeking a chilled afternoon or evening.

The place was neat, cool and welcoming. We ordered a variety of Indian meals just to get a taste and feel of India and we were not disappointed. Meals came hot, fresh and prompt. We were also guided on the meals to order and what to expect, including the glass juice. I wish we were still in Abuja I would have probably had a birthday dinner there. Well done and kudos

    • dev G. ★★★★ : "I recently dined at this restaurant and was disappointed with the overall experience. Considering the high prices they charge, the food quality was below average. The flavors and preparation didn't meet expectations for the price point. Additionally, the portion sizes were much smaller than expected, which didn't justify the cost. For the price, I anticipated a much better dining experience, both in terms of quality and quantity. Improvements in these areas are definitely needed to match the value for money."

Frequently asked questions

Which Indian restaurant in Abuja has the highest rating?

Cilantro Abuja has the highest rating among the ranked restaurants, at 4.5 from 3,106 reviews. LOMO Coffee and Restaurant and The Vue both have 4.4, but with far fewer reviews: 470 and 1,507 respectively.

How many Indian restaurants are ranked in Abuja?

we list 14 Indian restaurants in Abuja, FCT State. The top five by our ordering are Cilantro Abuja, Puzzo's Restaurant, Wakkis Food, LOMO Coffee and Restaurant, and The Vue.

Why does Cilantro Abuja appear first on this list?

Cilantro Abuja is first because it has the highest rating (4.5) and the most reviews (3,106) among the Indian restaurants. The ordering considers both rating and review volume, so a place with many reviews and a high score ranks above one with a similar rating but fewer reviews.

Are these ratings reliable?

The ratings come from Google reviews and reflect what customers have posted. Cilantro Abuja's 4.5 is based on over 3,000 reviews, which gives a solid sample. Others like LOMO Coffee and Restaurant have only 470 reviews, so their 4.4 is less robust. No rating is a guarantee of quality, but higher review counts generally indicate more consistent feedback.

What does the price level mean for these restaurants?

The price level is an indicator of typical cost, with 1 being inexpensive and 4 being expensive. Among the top five, Cilantro Abuja, Puzzo's Restaurant, Wakkis Food, and LOMO Coffee and Restaurant are all at level 2, suggesting moderate prices. The Vue is at level 3, indicating it is more upscale.
