On a Monday evening it was marvellous to alight here for a delicious dinner. Even though busy and arriving without a booking, there was no problem getting an immediate table. From the voluminous menu and with advice from the staff lovely mains arrived soon afterwards....Finishing with a traditional dessert, all were most tasty. Staff were attentive and friendly and helpful with suggestions.More

No doubt on recommending this welcoming place. Me and my family came across this Indian restaurant, that not only offered a friendly service but also the food was delicious and worth the time and money. Coming from London, we didn’t expect to have such a...tasty and unforgettable dinner. I would highly suggest you to try and enjoy the food if you visit Basil…More

For me, this is the best Indian restaurant in Basel. Great dishes, nice and diligent staff. Both, dine-in and take-out were always excellent. I go there for years with my family and we have never been disappointed.

Quite good Indian restaurant in Basel. The inside is quite spacious ; waiters were polite, agreeable and efficient. Food was fine. We found it quite expensive though (CHF 130 for 2 adults ), especially considering the very small portion of rice served with the dishes...(which we found barely enough for half a person). Overall, I would tend to recommend this place as we found it more professional than other Indian restaurants in Basel. However, I wouldn't return myself as I dislike the idea of an Asian restaurant serving tiny portions of rice (I have been eating Asian food every day for ~20 years... this really annoyed me).More

We ordered the chicken tikka masala and chicken jalefrezi along with some papadoms and garlic nan. Everything was delicious. The jalifrezi was probably the best I have ever had, really flavorful. We ate outside in a large patio area so that was nice as well....Go to this restaurant!More

I can warmly recommend the Royal Palace in Basel. Apart from being quite a regular customer, with family, friends or just on a night out with my wife, I have tried the majority of indian restaurants in Basel and Royal Palace is by far the...best. Service is great and the owner is a really fun guy! Also the variety of food is great, whether it's vegetarian, grill or sauce like Murgh Malai Tikka I've never been disappointed.More

I have been coming off and on for several years, and have come much more frequently since the pandemic began. I feel very welcome, and the atmosphere is casual and unpretentious. It is family run, and the food is really good and really fresh. I...especially like the Palak Paneer, which is made with very fresh cheese. The Bhindi is also great. Service is good and friendly. Give it a try.More

The menu is large unfortunately the dishes I chose where all uniformly of poor quality. I have had "Indian"in many places including India, this was not even in the class of street food. Uninspired, poor taste and the quality was dreadful.I am sorry the proprietors...certainly make and effort to welcome and serve but in the end the food counts. In this case they failMore

Best Indian food ever, everything is made from fresh ingredients even the pickle tray. Amazing quality food and so glad that they pride themselves in quality of their food so much . I'm so happy that the restaurant is doing so well.

Best vegetarian food in Basel/Switzerland. The most delicious Malai Paneer Kofta , Baingan Bharta and Navratna korma. No one else in whole Europe has that yummy food. And great service and food served with personal touch. And do not forget to try their Mango Lassi...and Papri chaat. And the Usp of the chaat is hand made chutneys.More

We often order from that place and they always deliver! The food is so amazing, it always feels like a treat. It's freshly cooked and comes in big portions. I used to work close by and come and stop for a lassi, we would usually...get free papadams with the lassi. Now during the crisis I started ordering directly with them (not with eat.ch or uber eat etc.) in order to ensure, that they can profit the max out of every order.More

We ordered a take-away from here after discovering the Liestal branch of the restaurant a couple of months ago. Both places serve the best authentic Indian food we've found in the Basel area and the owners and staff are really friendly! Highly recommended!
