We took a My Citi bus from Sea Point to Hout Bay just so we could eat at The Indian Oven again. Such great food!!!! And terrific service - always a good sign to see servers still working in a place more than a year later.

On this visit, my husband had the lamb korma, I had the lamb madras, with basmati rice and garlic naan. This was by far the best lamb we've had anywhere in South Africa. So incredibly tender and flavourful. We started with tandoori prawns which were fabulous!

All of our food was incredibly tasty and fresh. Generous portions. Reasonable prices. Terrific service. I think we'll probably head back for one more meal. We wish we could clone The Indian Oven and bring them to a few other countries on the continent.

And...they stay open during load shedding. The kitchen operates mostly on gas, so with the exception of a few dishes, everything else is available.

to go to for friendly service, excellent food and pleasant surroundings. We always enjoy the medium curry it's nice and spicy but you can still taste the ingredients.

This welcoming Indian restaurant serves Indian and 'South African' Indian food such as bunny chow and Durban style curry. Highly recommended are the vegetarian main coursesand chef's special dishes with fenugreek. Portions are generous and prices reasonable.

The biryani we had was not up to satisfaction, average as well as the curry.
The restaurant and their foods don’t Iook inviting to me this visit.
personally think they use to do much better. Since there’s a few more Indian restaurants keep coming up in and around Hout Bay, this restaurant themself need to do better to stand out amongst the others or at least keep us coming back.

Being a huge fan of Indian food (English!) we gave this Indian Oven a go. Absolutely fantastic. Great flavours, very fresh and lovely service. Could not complain about anything. Highly recommended
