Nice food, amicable staff. Juices are fresh. Both North Indian curries as well as South Indian cuisine are delicious. Must go place
Food is great but without notice they stopped serving all forms of alcohol. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTING. would never go again.
You know when you see a lot of Indian looking people at an Indian Restaurant that you have come to the right place. We loved the food and the service was great. The restaurant was cute and clean. The butter chicken was delicious and the portions were huge. Also great naan. Very reasonable prices.
Extremely bad food and they took over 1 hour to bring the food. Also led to a bad stomach, don’t try their Bombay sandwiches it’s just literally plain bread and raw tomatoes and sauce on it that’s it. No cooking skills at all. Should actually close down. Also got a bad stomach one hour after eating. Disgrace for the owner
I went excited by the comments here but the food was tasteless, big portions though, the juice was ok. Fast service.
The most authentic Indian food - home away from home!! Being vegetarian from Udupi/Karnataka I thoroughly enjoyed Ghee roast dosa. Spot on!!Surprisingly I tasted Sharjah (famous milkshake in Mangalore restaurants)!! Perfectly prepared.Impressed the way chef trains locals on tandoori & desi food preparation!!Thank you so much!!!
If there was an option for Zero stars I would have given that.1. Waited one hour for food.2. Portion sizes extremely small.3. Tasteless/overcooked food.4. Things on menu not available.5. Service was also very slow.
Good South Indian Food in Arusha. North Indian also available but need upgrading the taste....
Very good Indian food at brilliant prices. It rocks 👍🏽
You can have good Indian FoodGood ServicesSupporting Staff
Really Nice indian food. In the crazy town of Arusha
DisappointedI was craving for some Indian Cuisines, I visited the place (not too big). I stayed like 5-10 mins no one even asked me anything. Fast forward i called a waiter to bring me a menu, I picked the food she said it will take 35-45 mins I gave up I couldn’t wait I had to leave the place.Maybe next time I will try again and update this review. but I know what 45mins means to some people (1hr+)
Nice restaurant for Indian dishes. If you do not see on menu dish which you are looking for then ask for it. Ask to modify your dish.
All type of Indian food available at reasonable prices
Best Indian food in Arusha, fast, fresh and wonderful flavors.
The best indian food in town.
Great Indian food. This is authentic so order only if you can handle your spice. They do have some local dishes on the menu as well.
Famous and good place and nice service also
Authentic, delicious Indian food. Ended up eating here 3 times during my stay in Arusha.Its clean, staff is friendly and food preparation is really fast compared to East African standard.
The best Indian cuisine in town!The place look basic but is very clean and well kept.Service is a bit slow but this is because every dish is prepared upon order. Staff is polite and efficient.
Not the best Indian in the world, but probably the best Indian in Arusha (sorry Taj!). The prices are so cheap you cant blame if the food doesnt taste Khana Kazanna level.
Food is excellent, is a must if you come to Arusha
Hot plate is very tasty food
I love the food here it remind me of my home country. The food here is very good and delicious
My family was craving Indian food and we found wonderful indian food at Hot Plate. The prawn curry especially was delicious. The restaurant owner and the staff were very helpful and friendly. They even deliver to your hotel!
Excellent Indian restaurant. My masala dosa was really good. The service is excellent here and they prices good. I would eat here all the time if I could!
Very Tasy FOOD 😋 I recommend 👌
Really enjoyed the Indian food here. We got the lentil curry, lamb curry, and the chicken tikka masala (boneless for both meat dishes) along with roti and rice. All very flavorful. Lost one star because the meat was a little grisly...but this could be the best that you could get in the vicinity. Masala tea was good too.
Nice, authentic Indian restaurant with huge portions and very reasonable prices. We went there 3 times in row 😋. Highly recommend!
Indian restaurant. Veg and not veg. Large choice of meals. Big portion. Vegatarian thali is my choice. Affordable
Some very nice Indian dishes. The naan and related breads are a bit expensive. Service was good. You are shielded by bushes from the road so can sit outside.
Nice Indian food with good service.I visited several times and enjoyed pure desi ❤️ Indian food.One and only place in Arusha to get Indian food.Would like to advise the tourists coming from India, must visit and Enjoy the taste of India.
Well nice place to have lunch while Manjis taking care of your vehicle tyres, wheel balance
Great Indian cuisne experience. The portions are very generous. The food is generally spicy but you can request the Chef to go easy on the spices. I recommend the mutton roganjosh.
I like and love it
Very authentic and rich flavors. Soft and tender butter chicken. Highly recommend.
The food is amazing, I think ama visit this place again 👍
One of the best dinners we had on our trip to Tanzania. Prices were okay (around 10,000 Schillings for a dish. Getting a vegan dish was no problem, Staff was friendly, If you do take away you need to pay for the boxes (1000 Schillings per box I think, that´s okay, as it might help to reduce waste because people rather bring their own), it took quite long to get the food even though when we arrived there were not many other guests.
Best curry in Arusha. Situated in a bit of a dodgy area. Interior stark. Wine list dreadful but they allow BYO. The food makes up for all of that - food is outstanding!
This was the best Indian food Ive eaten in my life! It was so delicious, we went back a second time after our hike up Kili. Hidden behind bamboo on a small street, you wont regret visiting this amazing restaurant. We asked the waitress what to order and she offered some options off the menu (ask for the mixed vegetable dish, it is so good). With a group of 6, we ordered 5 dishes and 6 naan the first time, which might have been too much food and too little naan. The second time, we ordered 4 dishes and 8 orders of naan which was perfect for our group of 6. I highly, highly recommend!!
One of my favorites places to dinner in Arusha. Excellent food, tasty and cosy place. Im will come again with out doubts!
Good place for delicious indian food.
In spite of the restaurant itself not setting too much store on its ambience, the food is simply delicious, with all the shades of spicy a connoisseur may look for in Indian cuisine.
Great little find, hidden behind bamboo.. Good menu range, non- expensive, fresh lassie, just the ticket for a quick bite, friendly staff, fast service. No frills restaurant in the centre of Arusha Town.. Will be returning to try other dishes.
Its a nice place for Indian food, quick bites like bhajia,kachori etc, a cup of tea ..in short its a small place but just amazing.. small issues like flies annoy alot when you trying to have your food..but I think its something that can be easily sorted by the management as hygiene..otherwise its a nice cozy place
Waited one hour just for a soupForgot our order!
Snacks what indians call Bhajias were just A1 but wasnt happy with the Kababs. Chef was really good and happy to ask if everything was alright.
Best Indian Food Ive ever had. cant wait to get back for more
Neatly set tables
Best Indian food place in town.. I loved it.. masala tea.. panner butter masala, pav Bhaaji, chappati.. tried all these.. simply too good food.. was forced to return there.. as food was so yummy. Also do try Masala peanuts.. better food than many Indian restaurants in india.. must visit place. ❤️
Fantastic Indian food. Maybe the best I have ever had.
I didnt expect that in Arusha we can find a good indian restaurant, thanks HOT Plate. Food was so delicious. Liked it 😍
A nice place to have lunch ...very well known by tourists in Arusha. Had some incidents of roberry, but a few of them.
Nice chilli chicken!
Good food
Hotplate 1 as this is called, has a street restaurant vibe which I like. Though it could have been set up a bit better. The food is one of the best Ive eaten in Arusha. If youre looking for a fancier place for dinner go-to Hotplate 2.
Good food.. Great prices. Cozy atmosphere
Food was served timely
Indian food available.. service part is average. Takes long to serve food. The bench for sitting was hopeless..had a nasty incident and lucky was unhurt.
Best Amazing food in Arusha
Delicious indian cuisine.
Is Indian restaurant specialist in Indian food! Located at metro pole Jacaranda road/Indian street adjusted by Manjis buildings.
Best Food-per price in all of Arusha.
Food standard has gone down....had many stomach upsets from eating there. Also very tiny portions ...
Very nice place, hidden away from the busy city. Food is excellent!
