We had Paneer Makhani and Chana Masala with Butter Rotis and Vegetable Biryani! Our flavors were perfect and Rotis Pipping hot! My only wish was that the server should have let us know that the mains come with complimentary steam rice. It would have helped us not order more rice and we could have tried some other dishes!
The service was quick and I would surely visit again. It’s the best Indian food in Switzerland for us. Also, the servers do make a point to ask you for a trip advisor or google review 😜

A true Indian gem, authentic food, a must try!! - We are from India and I have to say the food at place was surprisingly tasty. We tried the Palak Paneer where the palak appeared freshly made, and the paneer... read more was soft and delicious.
We also had the Lamb Rogan Josh, and again it was way better than expected.
Remember this is Zermatt, so temper your expectations, but really we had no complaints on taste.
And the best part, we were offered tap water at no charge, unlike all the other rip-off restaurants where you pay CHF 6 for some fancy Italian water when you’re in the middle of water heaven.. oh the irony!! Not here. Rice was all free with the entree.
Friendly efficient staff, just 5 stars all around.
