When searching for "Indian cuisine in Aichi Prefecture" on Tabelog, around 400 results appear. As of March 2023, the restaurant "Banchagar" has the highest rating of 3.66 and is featured in the "Curry 100 Famous Shops 2020." It’s just a few minutes' walk from Hoshigaoka Station. While waiting at the crosswalk, I could already smell the spices wafting from across the street. I visited during Sunday lunchtime. Inside, there’s a central counter-like seating area for 8 to 10 people, and several tables for 4 or 5 around it. ---------------------------------------------------- I ordered the S Set (daily curry set) for 950 yen. Today's special was eggplant and chicken, and I opted for a spiciness level of 5 (very hot) along with naan. A lassi for my drink was also included. The salad arrived first, accompanied by some pineapple. The lassi was served next, refreshing and flavorful. After about 10 minutes, the curry and naan were brought to my table. - The eggplant and chicken curry was visually striking, featuring a generous amount of finely chopped onions in the base. I might have never seen such an onion-rich curry before. It truly felt well-prepared, complementing the naan wonderfully and tasting great. The eggplant and chicken were cut into sizeable pieces. - The naan was on the sweeter side, with both crispy and fluffy parts. I intended to have a second helping, but before I could finish the large bowl of curry, I found myself quite full after just one piece of naan. ---------------------------------------------------- As expected from a recognized establishment, it was bustling with customers. Families, friends, and couples filled the place. I arrived around 11:10 AM, and the table seats quickly filled up, including those with reservations. There were also several takeout customers. It seems to be popular with people of all ages. The menu’s photo of biryani caught my eye and piqued my curiosity. If I come again, I’d like to try it. Thank you very much.

◆Tuesday at 1 PM, the restaurant is 70% full, and it quickly becomes packed with customers. ■Biryani (Mutton, medium spiciness) ■Curry (Pork, medium spiciness) ★I came here specifically for the biryani! It's perfect for biryani lovers! The balance of moist and fluffy is just exquisite. Plus, there are whole bay leaves and cinnamon sticks in it, which give a strong spice kick throughout! This is what I wanted to eat! ★Since I came to an Indo-Nepali restaurant, I wanted to order curry as well. Although curry alone isn't on the lunch menu, I could order a curry set by saying "Tanpinde!" and it was understood by all the foreign staff. However, I was informed that they only accommodate the price for the set and not for the individual curry. But that's fine! OK! The curry is delicious too!

I recently visited Panchagar to enjoy garlic naan. The curry is, of course, delicious, but I really love the garlic naan topped with plenty of garlic bits, which really whets my appetite. The staff members have also improved their Japanese, so I can enjoy my meal without any stress.

Today, I went to a restaurant called 【Banchagaru】 that I had been wanting to visit for a while! I arrived around 12:30 on a holiday, and miraculously, there was a table available (shared seating). I ordered the curry rice set for 900 yen, which includes a salad and a drink. It's really nice to get both a salad and a drink for just 900 yen these days (*´▽｀*). After a wait of about 10 minutes, my curry arrived! Wow, I was surprised at how generous the portion was (；ﾟДﾟ). The dish had chicken curry topped with a boiled egg, tandoori chicken, and bell peppers. I took a bite of the curry, and at first, it tasted somewhat like European-style curry, followed by a gentle spice flavor. I asked for it to be a little spicy, and it had a rich sweetness that was quite delicious! Towards the end, I found myself with too much curry and not enough sauce, which is an experience I haven't had before (*'ω'*). With this level of volume and flavor for 900 yen, I was really impressed m(__)m. By the time we were leaving, the place was fully packed! I definitely want to visit again (｀・ω・´). Thank you for the meal!

I visited the restaurant around 12:30 on a weekday! There was no wait, and I was able to sit in a sofa seat. A variety of customers, from solo diners to groups of students, were eating there. The seats were about 70% full! **Ordered Items**: - Vegetable curry set: ¥800 - Vegetable curry (spicy level 4) - Salad - Cheese naan (+¥250) - Iced chai tea This is a restaurant I've loved for a long time, and this was my repeat visit! This time, I upgraded to cheese naan for an additional ¥250. **Vegetable Curry**: It included potatoes, carrots, ginger, and green beans! The spice levels range from 1 (mild) to 7 (very special hot), and I chose 4 (very hot) this time! I love spicy food, but not too spicy, so this was the perfect level for me. Next time, I want to try level 5 (very very hot)! **Cheese Naan**: 9.5/10 The cheese naan here is chewy, and filled with plenty of cheese right to the edges; it's very large! It gave me a great sense of satisfaction, and eating it made me very happy! The balance of the sweet butter and the salty cheese pairs excellently with the spicy curry! I ended up finishing one naan before I knew it! **Plain Naan**: 9/10 It’s larger than my face, and denser than the cheese naan, with a sweetness from the wheat and butter. This one is also extremely delicious! Depending on the lunch set chosen, you can get a refill, but one naan is quite large and definitely filling! Since I couldn’t finish everything, I asked to take the leftovers home, and they kindly provided a takeout container. The staff's Japanese was excellent, and the service was wonderful. The restaurant was very clean, and you could feel their attention to detail, which made the experience very pleasant! I definitely plan to visit again! Thank you for the meal!

I had some business in Hoshigaoka and was recommended this place for lunch. It was just before noon, and it was quite empty, which made me a bit anxious. However, the daily lunch set featured pork and eggplant, so I decided to order that. I was able to choose the spice level, and I went with the standard hot option. The set was priced at 950 yen, which I think is quite affordable for this type of restaurant, including curry, salad, naan or rice, and a drink. First, the drink and salad were served quickly. The dressing on the salad was surprisingly delicious—slightly spicy with a hint of turmeric and complemented nicely by sweet canned beans. Then the curry and naan arrived. As expected, the naan was huge. The daily special includes unlimited naan refills, but even one was quite filling. The naan was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, which was very tasty. The curry itself leaned a bit towards the taste of Japanese curry, which I actually preferred. It was delicious, and the pickled ginger topping added a nice accent, keeping things interesting. The spice level was substantial, and the eggplant was incredibly soft and flavorful. Given the quality and quantity, along with the unlimited naan for 950 yen, I think it’s a fantastic deal, and I would definitely like to come back.

Tabelog Indian Curry Category Rank: 108. I made a phone reservation and entered at 12:00 for lunch, which cost 800 yen. This is true for Indian curries in general: the cost performance is quite good, and it's definitely tasty. I had enough to eat, even getting a second helping of naan.

There is a delicious Indian curry restaurant in Hoshigaoka that I visit occasionally. It is conveniently located near the subway station. When I entered the shop, there were quite a few customers even though it was just before noon. I ordered the most affordable lunch, the keema curry set, for 770 yen. The contents were quite simple: salad, curry, and either naan or rice. It also comes with a drink. The naan was large, and I felt completely satisfied with the meal. The taste of the keema curry was great; I ordered it very hot (one level spicier than the standard). Personally, I found the spiciness just right—not too spicy at all. I ordered a lassi for my drink. If you prefer the drink to come after the meal, it's a good idea to mention it, as it usually comes out quickly. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with everything. It's a place I find myself wanting to visit occasionally. Thank you for the meal!

After living in Nagoya for 12 years, I visited for the first time. I've started using Tabelog and became interested in 100 famous restaurants, so this is my second visit during this long weekend. I arrived at 11:30 and was seated after waiting in line. It quickly became full after that. My wife and I chose a set that allowed us to try two different types of curry. Here are my thoughts: (Good points) - All the curries were very delicious - Generous portions - The butter chicken curry had a sweetness that felt unique (Disappointing points) - I couldn't choose the types of curry. Thank you for the meal.

During my workout at the gym, I found myself daydreaming about how I haven't had Indian curry in a while, and suddenly remembered that there’s a restaurant nearby. It was a Saturday afternoon, and while it wasn't packed, there were quite a few customers. For some reason, when I go out for Indian curry, I often end up choosing a green curry, and this day was no different. I ordered the saag paneer curry set. A mystery sauce salad, which is a standard Indian side dish, was served first. It has a carrot-based dressing and tastes really delicious. The curry itself was classic and tasty. You can choose the spiciness level from about five options when ordering. I went for around the second mildest option, and it was just right. The naan is free for refills depending on the menu, and the saag paneer also allowed for a refill.

I saw that this place is known for the best Indian curry in Nagoya, so I decided to give it a try! I went around 7 PM, which is a peak time, but the restaurant was empty, and I didn’t have to wait, so I could enjoy my meal at my leisure. The staff's service was great, and both the curry and naan were delicious! I ordered cheese curry and plain naan.

Today, I went out for work and stopped by this place for a slightly late lunch. Even though it was late, the booth tables were all full, so I was seated at a narrow table in the middle, which felt a bit cramped. I ordered the C course lunch set, which included chicken curry and naan. The naan was fluffy and large, making it very satisfying to eat! The curry had just the right amount of spice and was delicious. The person I was with ordered vegetable curry and rice, and the turmeric rice looked really tasty as well. I don’t get the opportunity to visit this place often, but I would love to come back if I get the chance. Thank you for the meal!

I chose the most reasonable keema curry set for 770 yen, and I was completely satisfied with both the portion size and taste. I selected the standard spiciness level of 3, and it made me sweat just the right amount. I’m thinking about trying level 4 next time. I was impressed to see a dapper gentleman across from me calmly enjoying a special spiciness level of 6. It's a place I want to visit again. I arrived at 12:20, and it wasn't too crowded. The staff was polite and kind, which left a very good impression.

The naan was large and quite filling, which was great. It seems that naan can also be taken out, so I was able to take home what I couldn't finish. The spiciness of the curry was at the regular level (3), but personally, it felt spicier than just regular. The mango juice was very sweet, and I could also taste a sweetness similar to corn. The mango pudding tasted the same as the mango juice. The salad was delicious.

I wonder how many times this is now? It’s a routine to park at YAMADA Denki and then go inside. Anyway, the curry is delicious and the portion is generous. The cheese is still as good as I mentioned in my last review; the cheese inside really tastes great. However, while it's large, I noticed that the cheese naan often has almost half of it without cheese, which feels quite uneven. This seems to happen every time. It’s so big that when I leave the parts without cheese, the staff always asks, "Would you like to take the cheese naan home?" But the naan I've left is essentially just regular naan without cheese. So, it’s a bit of a dilemma. For a lunch curry, the portion is quite large, and the lassi drink is tasty as well. But it seems they don’t like food being left behind. Sorry about that! Namaste! 😊 5 stars.

The restaurant in Hoshigaoka serves Nepalese cuisine, and all the staff are from Nepal. There is no parking available, so I parked at Yamada Denki since I planned to shop later. I've heard that in Nepal, chicken is considered the most luxurious meat! So, although it’s not the main reason, I was thirsty and ordered tandoori chicken with some beer. When I ordered the beer, I received a crispy, salted snack as a side. The flavor was average. For the main lunch, I chose mutton biryani at a spiciness level of 'very hot,' and I also had lassi to drink. My companion ordered a set that included two types of curry, naan, tandoori chicken, and reshmi kebab, which was a good deal. The biryani was indeed quite spicy at 'very hot,' and it contained whole cardamom, cloves, and pepper, which made for a stimulating experience when biting into them. Personally, I found it to be tasty but didn’t feel anything particularly outstanding about the place. Thank you for the meal.

I visited for lunch on Saturday. The parking is across the street, and you can use the coin parking lot while visiting Yamada Denki. I entered right when the restaurant opened and was the first customer. The interior was full of Indian decor, with a mom and one part-time employee serving. There were about three people in the kitchen. I ordered the Deluxe Set, which included spinach and chicken curry, vegetable curry, plain naan, salad, tandoori chicken, Indian sausage, mango pudding, mini rice, and a drink. Even as a woman, I was able to finish almost everything, though I did leave half of the rice. I don't really discern the differences in Indian curry, so my overall impression was that it seemed typical. However, it was enjoyable to try a variety of dishes.

I've been wanting to eat delicious curry and naan in Nagoya, so I came back to Banjhagar in Hoshigaoka, where I had great memories when I was working in Nagoya! I highly recommend the spinach curry—the flavor of the spinach is really strong, to the point where you could drink it on its own. I had it spiced at "hot" (the standard level) and it was pretty spicy. The very hot version is super spicy, and the kebabs and tandoori chicken are just incredibly delicious. The naan is more chewy than fluffy, and it's also really good. I've tried Nepalese curries in various places, but this one is definitely the best! I found out it's been selected as one of the top 100 restaurants too (laughs).

Today, I had lunch at this restaurant. I was originally planning to visit a curry shop that turned out to be closed, so I decided to try this Nepali cuisine place that was headed in the same direction. It’s a regular on the list of top restaurants and is quite popular. I arrived around 12:00 PM on a weekday, and there was a shared table available in the center. Within 10 minutes, the place was fully booked. There are 10 table seats, but all were shared, making the atmosphere a bit cramped... For my order, I chose this menu: - F set Deluxe Set 1,300 yen (including tax, spice level: 4 Very Hot, drink: Iced Chai) First, the salad and iced chai arrived. The salad was a fresh vegetable mix with a typical dressing and some pineapple. It was quite tasty. About 10 minutes later, the main plate and naan arrived. The deluxe set included spinach chicken curry, vegetable curry, a large freshly baked naan, mini rice, reshmi kabab, tandoori chicken, and mango pudding. The spinach chicken curry, also known as saag chicken curry, had a thick spinach base with tender pieces of chicken, and a refreshing touch of ginger. The “very hot” spice level was pretty spicy! The vegetable curry had pumpkin, carrot, and potato blended into a rich, sweet sauce, and it was healthy without being greasy. This one was also spicy. The reshmi kabab was an Indian-style sausage with cheese and ginger, but it felt a bit dry, and I couldn’t really taste the cheese. The spices had a nice aroma. The tandoori chicken was reliably delicious—tender and packed with flavor. Oh, how I wanted a beer… The naan was quite large, chewy, and thick, making it feel a bit heavy. I prefer it a little crispier, but it might be perfect for those who want to eat their fill. With the mini rice included, I left about a third of my meal uneaten… The mango pudding was quite thick as well, and I couldn’t finish it after being so full, so I left half of it untouched… My apologies. Thank you for the meal! It was tasty, but I didn’t feel it was significantly different from other Nepali curry places. I actually wish I could have enjoyed my time in a more spacious setting. Since the variety of curries is set from the start, it might be a bit hard to come back for another visit... However, the price was reasonable. All in all, I was glad to have visited a popular spot. *Rating at the time of visit: 3.66*

The G set includes a regular spiciness level, cashew nut naan, and iced chai, along with a luxurious selection of seafood curry and keema saag, shish kebab, and reshmi kebab. First off, the salad is delicious. The dressing must be really good—having pineapple in it adds extra points. The curry is quite nice too. I really like their shish kebab here. The cashew nut naan was said to have dried fruits in it, but it turned out to have something like white bean paste inside. The size was so huge that I was a bit overwhelmed. Haha, there was way too much food, but it’s a delicious place!

This time, we had bean dry curry, chana masala with extra hot spiciness, and chapati. The dry curry looks like it has no moisture in the photos, but in reality, it was saucy. My husband mentioned that he found the saltiness a bit strong, but I didn't mind it; it might depend on one's condition. The chapati is apparently made from brown rice, and it’s savory and delicious.
