First review during soft opening. We were excited to try it! From the samosas to the main course and the tasty deserts, this was a great experience! We had the chicken Tikka Masala and the lamb Vindaloo. The flavors and spice were on point!
Wow! This restaurant used to be a breakfast diner, and then became kind of a brunch spot (?)… neither of which ever brought us back but THIS…! This is truly a great restaurant. Traditional Indian with attention to detail. We had the House Mussels, the Cheese-Garlic Naan, the Curry Goat and Lamb Saag. All of which were absolutely wonderful! They’ve apparently only been open a short time but this is place you definitely want to put into your regular rotation for destination locations. We’ll be back!!
Phenomenal flavors and service from this new Indian restaurant in Hampton. We had tika masala (medium) and the special chicken curry (hot). Hot was VERY hot, but the flavors were phenomenal. Respect the heat! Accompanied with freshly made naan and the server was kind of enough to provide me a mango lassi to cool my palette. We've found one of our new go to restaurants.
The food was delicious, the service was extremely friendly. We went for lunch shortly after they opened and look forward to returning. Especially loved the variable spice levels as my party had varying taste.
We read in "Seacoast Online" about this new restaurant in Hampton and couldn't wait to try it. We love Indian food and have been to most every Indian restaurant within an hour or so drive. The food here was excellent! The staff were very attentive. I just wouldn't go when they first open (11:30 AM) as the restaurant was very cold; but it had warmed up by the time we left and the food was worth it! Delicious! We will definitely be back.
In town on vacation. Our whole party eats Indian food often and this was possibly the best we’ve ever eaten. Everything was cooked to perfection. Service was prompt.
Destination India is the new star of the Hampton food scene. New Hampshire has been missing great Indian food, and I am glad that we now have it right in our neighborhood. The restaurant has been renovated beautifully since the previous establishment. They have a variety of seating options, and we would have gladly dined outside if it was not raining. The staff were friendly and gave us delicious recommendations from the menu. The menus were big, and had plenty of options to choose from. My mango margarita was flavorful & fresh - it really packed a punch. The food was top-notch and blew both of our minds. We split an order of garlic naan and munched on each of our chosen entrees, the chicken vindaloo, and special fish curry. I would happily reorder the vindaloo in a heartbeat. We are ecstatic that we finally visited and can't wait to come back.
I rarely rate a place all five stars, but I really enjoyed my experience here. The food was very authentic, the cook is from Mumbai. The cleanliness was perfect. The service was attentive and friendly. I definitely recommend it and I will return.
