5 Best Indian Restaurants in Hong Kong (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Tsim Sha Tsui and Central both claim to have Hong Kong's best Indian restaurants, and the Google data actually backs a clear answer. Between the six kitchens on this page, customers have left more than 16,000 reviews, and the top spot has racked up over 9,000 of them on its own, a volume no rival here comes close to matching. What separates them isn't cuisine, most cook northern Indian classics, it's whether you want a hidden buffet counter, a Michelin-recognised dining room, or a rooftop with harbour views.

Short answer: Pakeeza Food Restaurant in Tsim Sha Tsui leads with 4.9 stars across more than 9,000 Google reviews, the most of any Indian restaurant in Hong Kong, known for its halal curry buffet from around $150 HKD per person. Carat Fine Indian and Mediterranean Cuisine (4.8, 2,259 reviews) and Bombay Dreams (4.6, 1,930 reviews, a former Michelin Bib Gourmand winner since 2002) round out the top three.

Pakeeza Food Restaurant

4.99,150 Google reviews

Pakeeza Food Restaurant is a halal Indian restaurant tucked into the second floor of Mirador Mansion on Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui. It runs a curry buffet built around unlimited rice, roti and a rotating lineup of curries, with lamb chops and other à la carte add-ons available. The setting is unassuming, up a stairwell in a residential building, but the kitchen has built the single largest following of any Indian restaurant in the city.

  • Tender lamb chops singled out by multiple reviewers
  • Staff fluent in English, Cantonese and Urdu
  • Owner and servers described as attentive and welcoming

Worth knowing

Our take: It is the most-reviewed Indian restaurant in Hong Kong by a wide margin, and the buffet format makes it an easy, affordable choice for a group. Go in expecting a hidden gem, not a polished dining room, and you will not be disappointed.

  • Masala chai and bacon naan roll called out as standouts at brunch
  • Attentive, knowledgeable service

Our take: The most scenic option here, and a genuinely different experience from a Tsim Sha Tsui curry house. Go for the views and the brunch, not a traditional deep Indian menu.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data as of the date shown, not opinion or payment. Rating is the restaurant’s live Google star average. Review volume measures how many customers have rated it, ranked against other Hong Kong Indian restaurants. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from thousands of reviewers counts for more than a 4.9 from a few dozen. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No restaurant can pay to change these numbers.

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these Indian restaurants?

We started from Indian restaurants in Hong Kong with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Are these restaurants halal?

Pakeeza, Carat and Dilliwale are certified halal. Confirm directly with Bombay Dreams and Rajasthan Rifles if that matters for your visit.

Which Indian restaurant in Hong Kong has the most reviews?

Pakeeza Food Restaurant, with more than 9,000 Google reviews, well ahead of any other Indian restaurant on this page.

The bottom line

Pakeeza is the safe default if you want the most-reviewed, most affordable option, while Bombay Dreams and Rajasthan Rifles are better picks if you’re after a fuller dining experience or a view. Whichever you choose, book ahead on weekends.
