Plume Algiers

Excellent ethnic food. Rich in complex flavors. Very interesting cocktails. As one of the 10% who think cilantro tastes like dish soap, they were happy to make adjustments. Loved this place!

We heard great things about this restaurant so we wanted to try it. They are only open for lunch at the moment so we went on a Saturday. There were 3 of us so we ordered many things so we could try everything. We were not disappointed. We ordered the butter chicken, the cabbage moilee, the shrimp ghee roast, and the Keralan fried chicken. Everything was delicious. The only item of these that i would not order again was the cabbage. We also ordered cheesy naan bread which was different that any naan i have ever eaten. It was very tasty. The star of the afternoon was the Karachi puff with yogurt and pomegranate seeds. It was outstanding and i want to go back just to order that again. We will definitely return to this restaurant. It was warm in the dining room for the entire time that we were there, but we dealt with it because the food was so good. It will feel better in the Fall.

I had brunch with a party of 6 here, and with advance notice, they were able to accommodate. Everything was delicious and this is what we had:* mango sodas, hot chai, tuktuk cocktail * banana chaat and fried bread stuffed with paneer * fried chicken (not pictured) and butter chicken * pork belly * shrimp * eggplant Perfectly balanced seasoning, delectable sauces, moist proteins, and relaxed atmosphere. Cross the damn bridge!

A little sad about their hours changing to brunch only but I know it's only temporary. Although yesterday they had dinner available for their 4 year anniversary. It's our favorite Indian spot so of course we rsvp'd. you can't go wrong with anything on their menu. We haven't had their fried chicken until last night and boy I wish we weren't too full to order another one. It was so dang good. The chingri malai shrimp was my second fav! Flavorful dish with nice juicy shrimps. My husband is a huge fan of the beef nighri and pork axalone. Those two were too spicy for me but it's his go two every time we go there. We'll have to try out their brunch one day. Service is good. Since it's a small biz, we typically order by the scan code to help the servers out and pay through it also. Street parking. Fairly safe area in Algiers. Now go cross that damn bridge for some good food.

Located in New Orlean's second-oldest neighborhood far from the French Quarter is a small Indian restaurant on a block full of single-family homes. The chefs aren't Indian. After working in the food industry, the partners traveled through Indian, inspired by new-to-them flavors. Upon returning, they created a pop-up that now has a brick-and-mortar worth visiting. On a trip to New Orleans, my wife, seven-year-old daughter, mother-in-law, and I dined at Plume Algiers at 6 p.m. on a Tuesday evening in April. Here's our experience.1) Food: Don't expect your usual Indian dishes like butter chicken or tikka masala. The menu is small, but that's because every dish is thoughtful and fresh. To feed the four of us, we got the fried rice with chicken for our daughter. We also got the banana chaat, chingri malai shrimp, cabbage moilee, raj kochari, green chutney, tamarind chutney, appam, two servings of naan, and milk cake. Literally, every dish was scrapped clean and every dish was a winner- truly. The banana chaat is very unique and the banana works with the coconut, yogurt, tamarind, and green chutney. The chingri malai shrimp was the perfect amount of spicy and the sauce went well with the naan and appam. 2) Service: It was attentive and kind. One of the owners took our orders and walked us through the menu. It turns out she grew up near where we live in Washington, D.C.3) Space: It's small, but inviting. The walls are decorated with murals and the kitchen is open. Once done, go to the front to settle the bill. We found easy street parking right in front. 4) Price: For a feast that fed all four of us, our bill was $165.70, including a 20%+ tip. 5) Drinks: We ordered one of each of their cocktails. They were strong!

Really fantastic, fresh, creative approach to Indian. Run by an adorable couple who visited India and learned to cook it. Generous portions. Delicious naan and appetizers. Beef dish very savory and rich. Braised curry cabbage with coconut and peanuts. Really ingenious preparation. For summer they plan to just have a brunch menu. They have picnic tables outside. Lots of take out orders. Alcohol served. Don't worry about the drive or the neighborhood. It's fine and well worth it!

Plume Algiers is definitely worthy of a trip to Algiers. The freshness and tastiness is just as good now as the first time I ate there.

BEST Indian food in New Orleans. Hands down. When I finally made it over to Plume, I couldn't believe I had been missing out on something so amazing for so long. Don't come here expecting to get your typical, basic Indian dishes like tikka masala, butter chicken, etc. Go to Plume to be taken on an Indian culinary adventure. There was barely anything on the menu that I had heard of before, but for me, that's right up my alley. We got the Raj Kachori, Shrimp Kaathi Roll, Mulai Kattiya Taniyam (and Naan of course). Everything was EXQUISITE--Absolutely nothing like I had ever tasted before-- and had an explosion of flavor with every bite. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Plume Algiers is definitely one of my favorite New Orleans restaurants now.

Quaint tasty attentive Surprise me Plume was opened 4th of July 2023I ordered the cheese naan very tasty The lentils were good tooMy sister ordered this poof naan ball the you break open with a fork to eat. This was fun My nephew ordered some kind of black spices covered chicken That was very savory You can order using the app or wait for an attendant Very authentic tasty and fresh Worth the adventure

Loved this restaurant - very authentic. Their options were a joy to find! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Appam on the menu. Appam are rather unique rice pancakes using coconut milk made in southern India, mostly in Kerela and Mangalore. They were delicious. The cilantro lime fish was flavorful and moist. They even had Fenny - an alcohol drink made in Goa by fermenting cashew fruit. It was truly an amazing find. Next time I visit NOLA, I'll definitely return in anticipation to Plume Algiers for such great food options!Ambience was great and service was friendly and prompt.
