Best indian restaurants in Mauritius
Namo India - Rosehill and Port Louis
When it comes to authentic Indian flavors that won’t break the bank, Namo India stands out. With two branches in Rosehill (across the street in front of Super U) and Port Louis, this restaurant has become our top choice for exceptional value for money. Namo India is entirely vegetarian, but don’t let that deter you if you’re a meat lover. Their extensive menu caters to both South and North Indian palates, offering a delightful range of dishes. From mouthwatering chaats (try their dahi puri) to delectable Indo-Chinese cuisine and irresistible sweets, Namo India has it all. Plus, their thalis come at incredibly affordable prices, making it a must-visit for any Indian food enthusiast.
Filli Cafe - Tribecca Mall and Coeur de Ville Flacq
Filli Cafe, located in both the Tribecca Mall and Coeur de Ville Flacq, is a hidden gem opened in May 2023 that deserves your attention. Their main selling point? The Chai. But it’s not just any chai; it’s an unforgettable experience that will transport you straight to the heart of India. And if you’re in the mood for something extraordinary, don’t miss their Signature Zafran Tea. While it may be a small café and a brand which actually comes from Dubai, it packs a punch when it comes to Indian street food. From Momos to Kathi Rolls and excellent Chaats, the indian street food lovers won’t be disappointed.
