From Michelin-recommended restaurants to local street food spots, there’s so much choice – with chefs serving tasty dishes from across the sub-continent. We asked Yorkshire Evening Post readers to name their favourite Indian restaurants in the city and they didn’t disappoint. Here are 15 of the best according to them.
13. Red Pepper
Another recommendation in Otley was Red Pepper. The New Market restaurant serves ingredients you wouldn’t normally associate with an Indian restaurant such as venison, ostrich, and duck, and also has an extensive vegetarian range. Photo: Google
14. Tharavadu
Tharavadu in Mill Hill serves traditional south Indian cuisine in a modern restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows and polished floors. The extensive menu offers perfectly spiced, colourful Keralan specialities and refined street food - the dosas are a hit. The restaurant has glowing reviews, including from the former Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma. Photo: Tony Johnson
15. Paradise Balti and Pizza
Paradise Balti and Pizza in Yeadon was another curry house recommended by our readers. The fast food joint offers tandoori, korma and balti dishes as well as Indian set meals and favourites such as vindaloo. Photo: Google
16. Prashad
Prashad was recently crowned Overall Restaurant of the Year at the YEP's Oliver Awards 2023. From its beginnings as a deli to one of the most prestigious Indian restaurants in the country, the Drighlington venue blends traditional Gujarati cuisine with modern techniques and seasonal Yorkshire produce.
