We had a wonderful evening in Indian Summer! Papadams were served right at the beginning, very friendly. The Dhal soup with coriander was delicious, the main courses, whether vegetarian or seafood, were a poem. And, the service was very attentive and friendly.PS: Good lunch menus!

Not intrusive, but very attentive.The food was very tasty. All three home teas are recommended. If you like it sweet: hibiscus or alpine herbs. Super fine mango lassi.We will come back😊Giovanni Romeo

It was our favourite Indian restaurant in the area. It even moved to this much nicer location than before, but since the last two weeks, orders were mixed up, it was too spicy (ordering none spicy) and the replacement didn't have any taste at all, plus the parathas are far from what they've been a month ago 😔We'll come back after the summer vacation to see (and we sincerely hope) if it's back to what we've been used to 😊

A wonderful Indian restaurant. From the warm welcome to the farewell, the well-coordinated team makes you feel very welcome. The extensive menu leaves nothing to be desired. The explanations of the exciting dishes and wines are understandable and accurate. We had dinner there on December 31, 2023. Despite being at full capacity, the staff was very attentive, friendly and helpful. Also a big compliment to the kitchen, we received the dishes in a timely manner and they were once again a real treat! We had another very successful evening at “Indian Sommer” and can recommend this address with a clear conscience. We are already looking forward to the next visit!

I put a little comment, while passing through Basel for the holidays, we made a little detour to this restaurant. Indian food lovers with an average budget (between 50-65 francs for 2 people), this place is perfect for you. The food is good, the waiter is friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed and the music allows you to relax. We had a great time☺️

I had lunch today (13.12.2023) at Indian Summer Restaurant. I ordered chicken with naan bread, and broccoli soup that was included in the menu. The 'broccoli soup' was so watery with no trace of broccoli! The main meal arrived and was told that the naan would follow in 2/3 minutes. The vegetables on the plate looked pretty meager and lifeless.The chicken pieces had hardly any masala. After waiting for over 10 minutes, I asked the waitress about the naan. She said that it would be ready soon. I asked her to cancel the naan, finished the lacklustre meal, paid and left the restaurant.As an elderly Indian, with a fine taste for Indian cuisine, I was very disappointed with the food and service at this restaurant.

We ate there as a larger group (7 people).The atmosphere in the restaurant is inviting and the distances between the tables are well chosen. We were served very friendly and when we asked for recommendations the menu was explained to us. While ordering, there were also tips on what would go well with it, for example as a starter.Everyone enjoyed the food, the portions were more than sufficient (5 of us had to have something packed, which worked without any problems). The starter was even explained and introduced to us again when it was served.

Here you can find fine Indian food in a nice atmosphere. The butter chicken and chicken tika masala we ordered were very good and the portions were very large. On a Sunday evening you could find a table even without a reservation. The service is very friendly. The only problem was the ventilation, after a while it got a bit stuffy. All in all a good experience, the food is recommended.

We have waited for the food for over an hour! Ordering took a very long time too as they have only one waitress for the whole restaurant..We ordered a middle spicy dish which was full of hot chillis so we couldn’t eat that dish at all.We also have asked for more rice in the beginning of the meal, but it hadn’t arrived until the dishes were already cold.We would really not recommend to go there

Our first, but certainly not the last, visit to this restaurant was simply fantastic! The friendly and courteous staff made our evening an unforgettable experience.The food was simply outstanding and undoubtedly the best Indian food I have ever tasted in Basel. The flavors, presentation and quality of the food were simply outstanding. We ordered a variety of dishes including Chicken Vindaloo, South Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala. Every bite was a real taste explosion.We are thrilled with this restaurant and can fully recommend it. Whether for a romantic dinner for two or a social gathering with friends, this restaurant has something to offer for everyone. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

The whole end to end experience is lovely. You can book a table 24/7, online which is very convenient. My family and I loved the very relaxed and positive vibe underpinned with nice music, you notice it right away when you enter. Extremely friendly staff who were very forthcoming and customer oriented, instead of focusing mainly on their tasks. They could read desires before they were expressed, which is rare in Basel. The food was the icing, very nice and authentic indian food, when it says spicy it is spicy which is great for people who like that! Soon again, thank you! 🙏🏾

Dishes tried -Chicken biryaniPalak paneerLacha parathaBest Indian food. Friendly and helpful staff.The quality for the price you pay seems reasonable. It’s neither economical nor too costly.There is a lot of Chicken and masala gravy which is more compared to the rice in the biryani. The portion of palak paneer too is very good. All in all a good experience.

They moved to a new place. The food remained the same however the portion is definitely smaller. A chicken saag had 4 (!) small chicken peaces. Their “Lunch card” reader almost never works. Prepare debit/credit card as an option too in case you want to pay with it.

Very cozy restaurant. Not super big and has a lot of vegetarian options. The price is also not shocking, so thats for sure a good thing. I ordered the Palak Paneer and the taste was very good!

There is simply a good atmosphere in this restaurant! This is so valuable and is also transferred to the food. Very good value for money.

Always a pleasure to eat here - everything is great. For me the best Indian I know. But be careful - spicy also means spicy here. 😉

We ate there as a larger group (7 people).The atmosphere in the restaurant is inviting and the distances between the tables are well chosen. We were served very friendly and when we asked for recommendations the menu was explained to us. While ordering, there were also tips on what would go well with it, for example as a starter.Everyone enjoyed the food, the portions were more than sufficient (5 of us had to have something packed, which worked without any problems). The starter was even explained and introduced to us again when it was served.

I found it very nice and was very positively surprised. The staff was very nice and the location too. Always saw the Instagram pictures and always wanted to eat there. And that was the best decision - the food not only looks good but also tastes delicious. Always my pleasure.

Here you can find fine Indian food in a nice atmosphere. The butter chicken and chicken tika masala we ordered were very good and the portions were very large. On a Sunday evening you could find a table even without a reservation. The service is very friendly. The only problem was the ventilation, after a while it got a bit stuffy. All in all a good experience, the food is recommended.

Unfortunately it wasn't meet my expectations. Meat and sauces were not good. Afterwards we didn't feel well the whole night. The clothes after the dinner smelt bad.

One staff managing from customer service to beverage making all by himself. Poor fella but he was still very cordial and nice. We enjoyed the mutton nasi briyani, butter chicken, naan very much. Price was pretty reasonable as the portion was good for 4 small/medium eaters. Will definitely return

We have waited for the food for over an hour! Ordering took a very long time too as they have only one waitress for the whole restaurant..We ordered a middle spicy dish which was full of hot chillis so we couldn’t eat that dish at all.We also have asked for more rice in the beginning of the meal, but it hadn’t arrived until the dishes were already cold.We would really not recommend to go there

Our first, but certainly not the last, visit to this restaurant was simply fantastic! The friendly and courteous staff made our evening an unforgettable experience.The food was simply outstanding and undoubtedly the best Indian food I have ever tasted in Basel. The flavors, presentation and quality of the food were simply outstanding. We ordered a variety of dishes including Chicken Vindaloo, South Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala. Every bite was a real taste explosion.We are thrilled with this restaurant and can fully recommend it. Whether for a romantic dinner for two or a social gathering with friends, this restaurant has something to offer for everyone. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Wow. Just Wow. Cannot describe how beautiful the flavours I had when I tasted the biriyani and the chicken vindaloo curry. The curry's taste brought me back to my home villages taste. So wonderful. Would definitely recommend to everyone. Thank you so much brother. This is from Siva 😂🙏

Good People. Great Servive! I have come from the UK on holiday to Swiss and this was what I had for dinner on the first night. I most definitely recommend this. If anyone south asian people would want some nice Indian and Sri lanakn food I definitely recommend this place. Thank you Anna for everything. From Bala 😊

The whole end to end experience is lovely. You can book a table 24/7, online which is very convenient. My family and I loved the very relaxed and positive vibe underpinned with nice music, you notice it right away when you enter. Extremely friendly staff who were very forthcoming and customer oriented, instead of focusing mainly on their tasks. They could read desires before they were expressed, which is rare in Basel. The food was the icing, very nice and authentic indian food, when it says spicy it is spicy which is great for people who like that! Soon again, thank you! 🙏🏾

Dishes tried -Chicken biryaniPalak paneerLacha parathaBest Indian food. Friendly and helpful staff.The quality for the price you pay seems reasonable. It’s neither economical nor too costly.There is a lot of Chicken and masala gravy which is more compared to the rice in the biryani. The portion of palak paneer too is very good. All in all a good experience.

They moved to a new place. The food remained the same however the portion is definitely smaller. A chicken saag had 4 (!) small chicken peaces. Their “Lunch card” reader almost never works. Prepare debit/credit card as an option too in case you want to pay with it.

The menu was very limited and the samosas were frozen on the inside when we got them. They did warm them up again but it shouldn’t happen.Beer wasn‘t very cold also.Service was friendly but value for money wasn‘t too good.

I had a meal in the restaurant and ordered Mango Lassi and Kothu Parotta.Mango Lassi was not good at all. It was total waste of money. It seems like they have used water instead of yogurt.The Parotta was ok but spicy

We had a really good time at indian summer. Service was really nice and attentive. Unfortunately, the main dishes were far too salty, to the point it was difficult to enjoy them (and I’m someone who eats very salty usually). Great desserts!

Very cozy restaurant. Not super big and has a lot of vegetarian options. The price is also not shocking, so thats for sure a good thing. I ordered the Palak Paneer and the taste was very good! They had a nice primitivo and some good home made soda’s. The service is friendly and good. Will for sure return!

Decent in parts. Bindhi Masala & Naans are definitely worth a try. Pakora & Samosas, not really. Very slow service so do order drinks and appetizers as soon as you get in.

A good new restaurant.The host, Akhilan, was very warm and welcoming. The ambience is very good and located in very calm neighborhood.The restaurant has a parking space in the backyard, a welcome change from other Indian restaurants.Food was good. Hard to find any complaints with the taste, quality and service.Will visit again.
