Phuket has many Indian restaurants, which is not surprising when you consider it's one of the more cosmopolitan destinations in Thailand. The broad international appeal of Thailand’s most popular island attracts visitors from around the world. As a result, there's a wide choice of cuisines available alongside the outstanding native Thai dishes, including a good selection of Indian eateries. Whether you are visiting from India and want a taste of home or you just really fancy a curry, this list of the best Indian restaurants in Phuket is for you.
Common features of curry houses across the island include outstanding service, high-quality dishes and a price range which, while not as cheap as Thai food, is not in the budget-buster levels. Excellent offerings are well spread around Phuket, with good choices available around most of the main beach destinations. We’ve picked out the best of them, listed below.

Bollywood Phuket Restaurant & Bar
Phuket Town
- Essen
Bollywood Phuket is a unique standalone Indian restaurant set in a lovely Sino-Portuguese-style building on the outskirts of Phuket Town. It's a classy family-run business managed by a Sikh Pakistani lady named Priya, offering top-notch subcontinent specialities. They mostly serve central and north Indian home-style cooked specialities, as well as a choice of curries coming from the most notable provinces of the subcontinent. Their 3 Indian chefs are in charge of delivering the goods and they can prepare almost any dish on request. It's not the cheapest option available, but the quality justifies the price.

Casablanca Indian & Arabian Restaurant
Patong Beach
- Essen
Casablanca Indian and Arabian Restaurant at the Royal Paradise Hotel & Spa serves up certified Halal food and it does so with panache. Even so, they specialise in excellent Indian cuisine, with their enormous lamb leg tandoori, served still on the bone, being particularly impressive. The naan breads are also a visual and culinary treat. All of this, as well as elements of Pakistani and Nepalese cuisine, is served in a very classy Arabic-style setting.

A popular family-run restaurant, Curry Night has been established on Cape Panwa for many years and has developed quite a devoted fan-base of regular visitors.

It's genuine Indian cuisine, so make sure you’re prepared for plenty of spice. The menu includes an excellent range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes and even some vegan options and some impressive Thai options.

Curry Delight Indian Restaurant
Kata Beach
- Essen
Curry Delight Indian Restaurant is quite a modest-looking place at the southern end of Kata Beach, and its reputation for great Indian and Thai food is excellent. It has a very cool atmosphere, with a pool table to play on while you’re waiting for your food to arrive. The staff are very friendly and the food is authentically Indian and pretty spicy. Particularly noteworthy are the palak paneer, dal tadka and lamb rogan josh. You can expect low prices but high-quality cuisine here.

Tantra Patong Indian Restaurant
Patong Beach
- Essen
Tantra is an odd combination of Indian restaurant and British-style pub, making it particularly ideal for those travelling from the UK who love a good curry. The décor and atmosphere are even pretty good representations of a British curry house. In spite of this odd theme, the use of high-quality ingredients and excellent preparation creates a menu of authentic North Indian and Mayulai dishes, including tandoori kebabs and the Kashmiri classic lamb rogan josh.

Live India
Cape Panwa
- Essen
Live India is a lovely little restaurant close to the coast on Cape Panwa, known for its great food, low prices and well-spoken waiters. Notable dishes include the saag mutton, palak paneer and prawn vindaloo. Their selection of naan bread is particularly impressive, though the garlic one is definitely the top choice. The menu features plenty of vegetarian dishes, as well as a few Thai options, and the friendly staff are more than willing to customise each to your needs and desires.

ICC Indian Curry Club
Patong Beach
- Essen
There’s nothing quite like a nice curry after a night of partying and ICC Restaurant, being close to Patong’s Bangla Road and open until very late, is a good choice. Specialising in North Indian and Mughlai cuisine, their garlic naans, chicken tikka masala and lamb vindaloo (so, the typical post-party options) are highly recommended. It’s quite a small but colourful place and the staff are particularly friendly and attentive.
