Bites of India

Bites of India brings a refreshing taste of southern India to the Ravenhill area of East Belfast, standing out from the usual curry-house crowd with dosas, idli and other regional specialities alongside the familiar northern favourites. It has become a genuine destination for vegetarians and vegans, who rave about the range of plant-based options, but meat-eaters are equally well served by richly spiced curries and tandoori dishes.

The Masala Dosa is a standout — a crisp, savoury crêpe filled with spiced potato — and the Gobi Manchurian draws regular praise as an Indo-Chinese crowd-pleaser. Diners consistently rate the food highly, with a 4.5 out of 5 score on Google drawn from several hundred reviews, reflecting both the quality of the cooking and the warm welcome. Whether you are eating in or ordering to the sofa, it is a reliably good choice for anyone who wants something a little more adventurous than the standard takeaway, with plenty to keep a mixed table happy.
