Naan N Curry stood out for me in terms of Indian food in Portland. It's an amazing place with really good food. Been here couple of times. We tried palak paneer, tandoor roti, samosa chat, chicken tandoori, lassi. Everything was perfect and good. The drinks are good too. Ambiance is very good with funny bollywood posters all around the place. They could definitely improve on their service because both the times when I went, they didn't gave an option to us to select the tip and they added it by themselves which is not a good practice. I'm mentioning this since it happened both the times when we went to the place with different people.Overall, a good Indian food place to try.

Considering the high star rating I was surprised and dismayed at the food at Naan & Curry in St. Johns. The service was attentive (although we did have to request the server/busser, which was the same person ,to take our dirty dishes away while we stayed and visited). Unfortunately that was the best part of our dining experience. The ambiance is lacking. Not much effort has been made to decorate or make it feel welcoming. Now for the food: This was the worst part. I must say I'm a bit of an Indian food snob because I have lived and traveled in India. If I'm going to go to an Indian restaurant I expect the flavors and ingredients to be authentic and flavorful.My friend and I shared the Chicken Korma and Madras mixed vegetable curry, plain naan and mango lassis. The Korma was ok. Nothing great. It lacked salt. The vegetable curry was the worst. The vegetables seemed to come out of a big industrial Sysco bag. Broccoli and mushrooms are NOT authentic Indian vegetables. I never saw broccoli in India! And there were your standard snacking "baby" carrots in there too. Yikes! That tells me they are lazy. The spice mixture tasted like grocery store curry powder. Ick. That would explain the bright yellow color. Yes, many Indian dishes with turmeric are yellow, but this was not authentic turmeric yellow. It lacked salt , and none was on the table. The consistency of the gravy was slightly gluey as well. The naan was ok. You can get better frozen at your local Indian market. It was thin and overcooked. The mango lassis were fine. I enjoyed them the most of everything. All you need to make those are a blender, a can of "mango pulp" and yogurt. Boom! You can make them at home.It just felt like nobody cares about this place, from the cold, stark décor to the low quality food. Maybe if you don't know your Indian food it's fine but I won't be wasting my money at any of their locations in the future.

My husband and I loved the food here! DELICIOUS. We ordered spicy, and they certainly delivered. A little pricey, but totally worth it! The service was also great! Super personable guy, offered good recommendations. The ambiance/vibe could use a little improvement. But we'll totally still be back here.

Delicious food and good service in a diner ambience that in no way matches the food served here. The bright American style diner interior is not an indicator of the layered, nuanced Indian food served here. It doesn't matter really because the food, the service and the dinner conversation ultimately matter more to me and my dining partners.Our food was outstanding--I can't wait to return to try something more daring than medium heat curry. Don't get me wrong--that curry was great. I just suspect there's a whole menu of great waiting to be discovered.There's no alcohol available at this early point of their St. John's location, but it's coming. I'll be here when it arrives.

Food was delicious. Have ordered from here twice, first time was pretty solid, second time, an entire item was missing (raita) and another (garlic cheese naan) was substituted with regular garlic naan without any warning, and still got charged for the more expensive item. I work in the industry and understand that mistakes are made, but you can't run to go and delivery apps if you make multiple mistakes on one order. Get the food, but double check your orders.

Love this place, they had a dish I've been looking for. Most Indian restaurants are not Punjab ran. This one is which makes the food authentic. Staff were great! Looking for real Indian food try them out. Price was on point too! We will be going back next time we're in town.

It is great having quality Indian food in the St. John's neighborhood. The chicken tikka masala, lamb biryani, and garlic naan were all flavorful and good sized dishes. Will definitely be back.

Veggie Thali is the go-to for me here, but all the food I see coming out of the kitchen looks and smell terrific. The wait staff is on point, the restaurant is clean as a whistle and never a bad experience have I had. Funnily enough, it's furnishings are that of a 1950s hamburger joint with Indian accoutrements here there and everywhere. Well worth giving a try if you like fresh tasty Indian. Oh, and their chutney is made in house and the tamarind is VERY good!
