Reviews for Jewel of India in Biddeford, ME
The food was delicious! We will definitely be going back. Our server was knowledgeable about everything on the menu. She was... very helpful with picking out my vegan options. The only complaint was there were dirty hand prints all over the wall by ourtable but everything else seemed really clean. Read more
I'm a little disappointed with the Malai Kofta. Anything to do with Malai usually is sweet, and I ordered this dish for the very... same reason. But it wasn't sweet at all. My friend took the Chicken Do Peyaza, and he said it was a bit on the spicy side. Myother friend took the sea fish thali (photo attached), and I tried the rice pudding from the thali. That was pretty good,actually. PS: This jewel of India has a namesake in NH, close to where I live. But this one in Maine has nothing to do with theNH one. This restaurant has two branches, both being in Maine. Read more
This place was my first experience with Indian cuisine and while I can't compare it to others, the food was fantastic. I would... highly recommend both the lamb kebab meal and the coconut soup. The Naan we ordered was nice and golden but still pleasantlychewy and perfect for soaking up both the curry that came with the lamb and the raita which was a great contrast with the meal. Read more
Nice Indian food, loved the service too. Only gripe was the naan bread was served 10 minutes before the gravy and the tandoori... platter was served. The paneer tika was more like ginger garlic paneer gravy. Loved the kid who was running around and doing allthe odd jobs in the restaurant. Read more
It is the best Indian food I have had in Maine. Tried all the Indian places in Portland and this is better than them all. The... food is amazing. It is definitely worth the trip to Biddeford. They do have a sister restaurant north of Portland, but I al yetto try that. The food is closer to North Indian dishes. Their thali is worth a special mention, a little pricey but for thequality and quantity, I would have it. Tried the Veg thali, palak paneer, the malai kofta and garlic naan. Read more
Good food (entrees). Good service. Good ambience. Didn't like the appetizers. We ordered lachchedaar paratha but got normal... paratha which tasted good but not what we ordered. Read more
Amazing. Just simply amazing. If you want good food and big portions this is the place to go. Some say it's pricey but you can... split a $16-20 plate between 2-3 people. And speaking of people, everyone there is incredibly nice. And if you want anatmosphere that's welcoming and food that fills your belly ... this is the place to go. Hands down one of the best places toeat in the Biddeford Saco area. Don't get me wrong there are other good places, but this is a must! Read more
I wish I had seven stomachs so that I could eat everything I wanted to order but I guess I?ll just have to come back... (frequently, hopefully). That was definitely the best meal I have had in Biddeford but quite possibly ever. Lovely lovelyatmosphere and service. I didn?t have time to take a picture- I was too busy being stunned by how amazing the meal was ???? themango lassi was perfection, too!! Read more
