Malabari Kitchen - Minneapolis

Please come back! As a student who hasn't had Malabari for over a year, it's been really tough! I've only been able to eat here once, right before the pandemic. We miss your delicious goat biryani, chai, and warm naan on chilly winter days! I've been checking this page repeatedly and still see "temporarily closed." I'm holding onto hope!

The food was fantastic, and I loved experiencing the variety of spices. The portions were generous too. I enjoyed the goat biryani.

The service here is incredibly friendly, and I would say it's one of the best Indian restaurants in the twin cities. I tried the spicy fish curry, which was perfectly seasoned—just the right amount of spice. If you're a fan of spicy Indian cuisine, this is definitely one of the top places to visit in the twin cities. The prices are reasonable, and the quality of the meals makes it worth every penny. As someone who is accustomed to Indian food, this restaurant feels very much like home.

Great food with great service. We had the shrimp Molly, goat buriyani, yogurt curry, and little samosas. All was delicious. We came for lunch on a Tuesday and had no wait and the food came out in a reasonable time. The buriyani was our favorite and itwas some of the best I?ve had. Although I have never been to SW India.

Food was excellent! There are only a few folks who work there (server and kitchen included) and everything is made on the spot from scratch so be prepared for a wait, but it is worth it. It's also a quirky intimate space so make sure you get there when itopens at 5:30. The portions are huge so consider splitting one with your companions. My husband and I both went home over-fullwith left-overs and very pleased with our meal.
