I visited Restaurant Mother India with my family and we had a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors that really impressed us. The waiters were incredibly friendly and attentive, which helped make us feel very welcome. The atmosphere at the restaurant was cosy and welcoming, with fine surroundings that made the visit extra special. We already look forward to coming back! Recommended on the warmest!

Three ladies were fully attended to by pleasant waiters who recommended a well-composed menu. This meant that we got to taste many dishes. Lovely food, exquisite flavors and top service. We will come again.

Fine dining - showcasing the Indian cuisine. We had a super evening among friends. The crew was super attentive and polite- all the dishes tasted and looked like a million dollars.
Interesting wine pairing 👌🍷10 course dinner I highly recommend. Looking forward to next time.

We had booked a table and were looking forward to Indian food, as we had something to celebrate.
Stylish with aubergine-coloured walls, but the room was dark and it was difficult to read the exciting menu, which we got quite quickly. It took a while before someone took the order and asked if we wanted anything to drink. We spoke to 4 different waiters in a half-empty room. The food was good when it arrived after 50 minutes, with the desired level of strength. The nan bread came when we had finished eating, but it was also good. No offer of more to drink, empty Cobra beer bottle and wine glass were on the table throughout the meal.
Feel sorry for the 8-person table next to us. They arrived before us and still had not received any food when we left after 1.5 hours. How about giving the guests, for example, pappadums and chutney? Sorry for the wait? Free drinks? We love Indian food, but amateur service means that we probably won't be returning to Mother India Fredrikstad.

My wife and I have been guests at Mother India for many years and have always been very pleased with both the service and of course the food experience you get here.
And the restaurant is also good at renewing itself menuwise. And tonight's dish was absolutely top class. And so nice that one can choose the strength of the food itself is important!

An evening out with friends. The service was great until we got the food, after nearly not a waiter to see. One waiter came to the table to take out our plates and took out half of the dishes that been used and the rest left on our table. We had to ask another waiter to take the rest, For desserts we waited apro 1/2 a hour....
Good food, but you guys must step up for the service bit.

We ordered food home tonight. It turned out that there was a shortage of rice, something you must have for Indian food. We called the restaurant, but got a little apology from there. We could come and get rice, was what we got in response, which we did not have the opportunity for tonight. As a patch on the wound, we were awarded 100 kroner, the price we had paid for the rice. Broken meal for almost 1000 NOK, miserable service, which I have never experienced like. The food was additionally tasteless, to be Indian. Never more Mother India Fredrikstad on us again...

A great dining experience! We enjoyed an incredible 10-course Indian dinner that really exceeded all expectations. Each dish was a taste explosion with perfectly balanced spices and authentic flavors. From the creamy curries to the delicious grilled specialities, tasty starters and Indian taco and more – everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly, professional and made sure we felt well looked after throughout the evening. Undoubtedly the best Indian cuisine in town. Highly recommended to anyone who loves really good food!

Great food. Great service and atmosphere. And very nice interior. Maybe Norway's finest Indian restaurant. We try their 10-retters and wow for an experience of plating and flavors. Everything was great from start to finish. We'll probably come back to test the usual menu.

Mother India has been present in Fredrikstad for a very long time and has a returning customer base.
It is pretty standard indian restaurant, after the move to new facilities some years ago the interior is pretty nice and gives a good feel.
Service is ok. It is probably the better indian restaurant in this area.

We had heard so much about their 10-retters and thought to let us test it. WOW. For an experience that we have not seen in Fredrikstad. This really proves why Mother India Fredrikstad is among the best restaurants. Delightful flavors, perfectly composed wines that made the experience 100/100. We are already looking forward to the next 10-retters. Thanks.

Wanted us a lunch, and took an appetizer. Lovely food of high class. Next time it will be a full dinner. Cozy local. The waiter was the "trouble" at the table location. We were the only customers and were offered the worst table. Unnecessary awkward feeling
