What Our Guests Say

★★★★★

We came across this amazing restaurant in the streets of Bukit Bintang during Ramadhan month. Service was superb, staffs gave detailed explanation about the dishes, asked us on our preferences and checked on us from time to time. We ordered their gobi 65, mixed bread basket, butter chicken, palak paneer and paneer tikka masala. The flavour was thick and rich, even more delicious paired with the breads. Plain water is refillable. This place has now become one of my favourite places to find authentic Indian cuisine and I'll definitely stop by again if I'm around Bukit Bintang. Awesome experience and highly recommended to anyone who'd like to try Indian cuisine.

Had a wonderful dining experience at Indian Empire Restaurant in Bukit Bintang. The biryani was aromatic, perfectly spiced, and served piping hot, while the butter chicken was rich, creamy, and full of authentic flavours – one of the best I’ve had in KL. Our waiter, seshathri was incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring we were comfortable throughout the meal and recommending the perfect dishes to suit our taste. The service made the experience even better. Highly recommended if you’re craving delicious Indian food with excellent service in the heart of Bukit Bintang.

We had wonderful dining experience in this restaurant while our stay in KL. The hotel is located on main street and easily accessible. This hotel is just behind the Jalong Food street but as we wanted indian food we chose this hotel. The hotel has good seating capacity and you don’t have to wait in queue. The interior of hotel is good and they have good seating arrangements as well. The food we tried here is mostly non vegetarian one. We love the chicken dishes and biryanis. Also crab masala was also fantastic in taste. The taste of food is far better than Indian restaurants I visited. Hotel staff is also very helpful with explaining dishes. They give you warm welcome and keep asking if we need anything which feels good. Special mention to Seshathri who served us very nicely during our visits.
