Wow i was not expecting to be blown away by how delicious this food was. I love Indian food like love it. I have one fave restaurant that’s all the way in philly BUT so far out of any I’ve tried in DE this one is the one. I always go for chicken tikka masala anywhere i go to see if it compares to my fave spot and philly and this restaurant is the only so far that compares. I was thoroughly impressed. The flavors, the quality, the good portions, and the authentic taste. They have gained a new customer today i will definitely be back soon. Must make my way through that menu. Just fyi they are take out only!! Closed on Mondays!! Highly recommend for take out!

Absolutely outstanding food, great portions and really good price. First time having Indian food. Everything was so flavorful full of herbs and spice. The garlic Naan is also a must with all of this food. Can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu.

We are foodies who are well traveled to loads of Indian restaurants (having grown up just outside Little India in Edison, NJ!). This. food. is. phenomenal!!!! The portions are large, every item is SO incredibly delicious, and so reasonably priced. We don’t live that close to Star of India, but we make a point of getting takeout (they are takeout only still) whenever we have the time because it’s just that good – and that’s not easy for us to say when it comes to good, better, and best Indian food!!! This place is easily in the top 2 for us in Delaware.

Yesterday night, Ordered chef specialty combination dinner for two..In vegetable Korma there is an insect(roach) inside of it. When I called them, they were discussing themselves briefly and they said no one has ever complained like this before and offered me free food next time. When i went through the reviews, I found someone had already complained on roaches. POOR SERVICE.

This restaurant is truly a star! I can’t believe that we have an authentic and fantastic restaurant like this just hiding away in this area. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Chicken Tikka Masala (number 18), especially with some garlic naan. Go get yours!

Drove from downtown to get some food as they said they were open online and was looking for a new place to try. I get there and the sign says open for carry out only till 2:30 (it was 12:30pm when I arrived) but the door was locked. I tried calling, they answered, and I asked if they were doing take out orders and they said they are closed and won’t open till 5 for dinner. Why even answer and post sign then? Waste of time driving and will take my business elsewhere.

First time trying this place and had a great experience! Staff very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the bayngan bhurta (eggplant) and saag paneer with garlic naan! Highly recommend Star of India if you’re looking for local authentic Indian food!

Absolutely delicious food. My husband and I are vegetarian, and they had so many veggie friendly options to choose from! He also has a nut allergy, and they were very accommodating of that, letting us know they could prepare some dishes without nuts in it. Portion sizes were large as well, we have plenty of left overs considering how stuffed we are! We’ll certainly order from here again!
