Indian restaurant

Naan and tandoori

An Indian restaurant is an establishment serving food from Indian cuisine—dishes like curry, biryani, tandoori chicken, and naan bread.

The term covers restaurants serving regional cuisines from across the Indian subcontinent, including Pakistani and Bangladeshi food, which share culinary traditions: There's a great Indian restaurant on the corner.

In Britain especially, the Indian restaurant is a cultural institution, often run by Bangladeshi families.
