    Our craving for home style Indian food brought us to this place , it was also at a walking distance from our hotel. The restaurant has formal ambiance , it’s kind of hidden in the basement, had to look around to locate it . We ordered onion pakoras , it was so bad , undercooked and oily , their Daal was ok , garlic naan were so thick and they didn’t cut them in half , worst was the masala paneer , it was spoilt , we complained about it but they said that it was alright , we started eating it again but it was indeed spoilt or stale , the server said he can take it back , we put all that we had in our plates back into the dish , later on when we paid , they had charged us for that spoilt paneer too . We being the vegetarians, eat Paneer almost everyday and can very well distinguish between good and bad food. We could’ve asked them right then , but decided not to argue with them when they aren’t ready to accept . I hope the owner notices this feedback and pays attention to his kitchen , disappointing experience.

    Meal itself was below average, I was really disappointed to be honest. I wanted to finish the dinner on a higher note, so asked for some desert. I was happily surprised to see my favourite desert gajar ka halwa on the menu. How ever, they had for sure forgotten the most important ingredient cardamom from this recipy! No taste or smell, pretty easy to spot. When I complained, they first denied it, then when I insisted, I was told it's the way they make it and the cardamom is added to the syrup during the preparation process and nothing could be done to fix it! Ummm...yeah, no. The cardamom is simmered in the milk during the preparation. I'm not sure where the syrup comes in, but the family recipe uses raw cane sugar 😉 Please check your recipe to ensure you use proper traditional Northern Indian ingredients and not just add cardamom oil in syrup (or rather forget it)

    This place gives you good food only on Friday and weekends.If you go any other day the food taste bad and old.Naan was really thick and old .Most of the foreigners like it here because they actually do not understand the actual taste of indian food and this restaurant takes it for granted.

    Though the food was tasty, the portions are toooo small. I do not understand why. you pay full price but get a quarter portion! Indian food is served with rice, they brought us only 2 spoons of rice :))) that was so wierd.

    Updated Review April 2023 I ordered again from this restaurant and I have to say that they really improved. The chicken tandoori vindaloo and Tandoori Lamb Tikka Madras which were really well spiced (very hot as I like it). The naan was delicious this time soft and a bit crispy and the rice was very good. The take out was on time (maybe 5 min early). I will definitely order again and this may become my to go Indian restaurant in town. Original Review September 2022. The chicken tandoori was really good and well spiced and it deserved 5 stars. However, the rice and the naan were not that good, that is why I am giving 3 stars. I cannot rate the service since I did takeout.

    Absolutely delicious butter chicken! The onion mix and raita were also very very tasty. Will definitely come again! Edit: we order takeaway from here all the time now, and it is fantastically good every time. Whoever makes the onion mix needs to marry me.

    Was there on my vacation. This is by far the worst Indian food I've ever had. The butter chicken had a feeble taste, almost like it was diluted with water. The worst part was, the chicken was not marinated, is was added to the butter sauce before it was served. It was just dull naked chicken meat. (Well at least it was cooked) The naan was definitely not fresh and had a stale taste. Even the rice lacked any taste. But the highlight was the served salad. In my mind the waiter had the following conversation with the Chefe: "Hey we need some salad for the menu." "I found some dry salad between the sink and the hob." "That should fit." Don't go there. Just don't.

    Beautiful place with great service. This was my first time dining at an indian restaurant, and I was pleasently surprised with how good the food was. I got a lot of food for the price and it was delicious! I might not come back to this exact restaurant for some time, but I will definitely have an eye open for indian restaurants while looking for places to eat in the future. Thanks a lot for the experience 😊

    It was very expensive and way too spicy. There were a lot of bones in the chicken, which was strange. The biryani was dry. The lassi was good. But overall, it wasn't worth it.

  • 5/5 Shane C. 9 months ago on Google • 54 reviews
    Delicious food. The Paneer Makhani and Aloo Chat were very flavorful; I ordered them Madras style. I love the hot naan fresh out of the tandoor. The kitchen is open to the restaurant and you can see the chefs preparing your meal. Came here on a Friday evening at about 8pm. I came back again the next day at 9pm and had a similarly good experience. It appears that the kitchen closes at 9:30pm so plan to arrive by 9:00pm. Plenty of seating and not too noisy (good ambiance). Prices are reasonable, too. I never thought I'd find such good Indian food in Norway but this is a hidden gem.

    My wife and I recently traveled to Bergen and since this restaurant was nearby our hotel, we decided to give it a try. We ordered palak paneer (mild) and dal (mild) and both were so spicy that we couldn’t eat without having sip of water after every bite. When we mentioned this to the waitress, she argued about that this is an Indian mild dish and we have to tell her explicitly that we are Indians and we do know about our own food😀. We told her we can’t eat this food and she said she will alter the food. She did it by adding so much more cream to the Daal. Unfortunately,we couldn’t have it since my wife had upset stomach. We left and went to another restaurant. I have to say this, so much spicy food is not a testament to the ”Indianess”of an entree. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone visiting Bergen.

    We were underwhelmed. The Chicken Tikka Masala was watery and lemon-y instead of creamy and tomato-y. The Saag Paneer was also disappointing. The Naan would have benefited from additional cooking. The staff were friendly and helpful when ordering. Felt overpriced for what we received.

  • 5/5 Kristine Strand C. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food with generous portions. You can decide between an array of different dishes and the spice levels are adapted to the Norwegian spice palette. The Naan is baked fresh in Tandoor ovens in house. Very popular for takeout, but eating in the restaurant provides a great atmosphere. The Restaurant is just a short walk from Danmarksplass light rail stop.

  • 2/5 Madhumita P. 1 year ago on Google
    Hi Team I always visit Arti. I feel they serve delicious Indian food with good presentation and ambience. But from last few time experiences are not the same. I am very disappointed. We had half cooked Naan, mutton was not cooked properly. We conveyed and nobody even bothered to take our suggestion into consideration. We feel behaviour was not good. We were not asking for refund but atleast a simple reply, could have been a right thing .

  • 5/5 Mike P. 3 years ago on Google
    Fantastic garlic naan! Mild is definitely designed for Norwegians, make sure you try Medium if you want a little spice kick to your butter chicken.

  • 2/5 Les A K. 3 years ago on Google
    I have been in many Indian restaurants in oslo and other cities in norway, and I will gladly say oslo Indian restaurants is 10x better than this, was very disappointed. The meal was cold and small portions and had to pay extra for extra rice. Completely different from oslo and Viken. This was a very bad experience from an Indian restaurant.

  • 2/5 Gabor S. 3 years ago on Google
    We wanted to have a nice dinner at 20.30. Checked webpege, opening was til 22.00. We have been told opening is only til 21.00. because of the virus. They should post this on webpage. We asked a couple of questions about the menu, the waiter had no idea about it and he's attitude was like 'why do I have to be here..leave me alone' type. Food was..well ok, there were no Indian guests. Portions are so little, my 8 years old son eats more. We not gonna go back for shure.

    (Translated by Google) Visited the place the night before but was told it was not available although many empty tables. Tried again at opening time the next day, was greeted by the same waiter who appears very little service minded. Was placed at a table to sit there for 5 min before I get in a naughty way informed that all orders are made by mobile phone? Understand that the corona should be taken into account but would have appreciated to be informed of this when will be assigned a table. Ended up leaving the restaurant. Do not pay to be offended! (Original) Besøkte stedet kvelden før men ble fortalt at det ikke var ledig selv om mange tomme bord. Prøvde igjen ved åpningstid dagen etter, ble møtt av samme servitør som opptrår veldig lite service innstil. Ble plassert ved et bord å satt der i 5 min før jeg får på en ufin måte beskjed at alle bestilling skjer ved mobiltlf? Skjønner at corona skal taes hensyn til men hadde satt pris på å bli informert om dette når vil ble tildelt bord. Endte med at vi forlot restauranten. Betaler ikke for å bli fornærmet!

    (Translated by Google) Sad example of Indian food unfortunately. Besides, the waitress messed around so much that instead of eating in the room, it was a takeaway. So the food was dull and service absent. Saw my first 1 star. (Original) Trist eksempel på indisk mat dessverre. Dessuten rotet servitøren så mye at istedenfor å få spise i lokalet ble det takeaway.

    (Translated by Google) I was at the restaurant with two others. Ordering via QR code worked very well. I had Lamb Tikka, the second highest spice level, with nan bread on the side. I think the food was very good but the lamb was quite overcooked, so pulls down a bit. Another on the table said the same thing. The price level was perfectly fine. Otherwise, the premises were modern and nice, and the service pleasant. (Original) Jeg var på restauranten med to andre. Å bestille via QR kode fungerte veldig fint. Jeg hadde Lamb Tikka, nest høyeste krydder-nivå, med nan brød på siden. Jeg syns maten var veldig god men lammet var nokså overkokt, så trekker litt ned. En annen på bordet sa det samme. Prisnivået var helt greit. Ellers var lokalene moderne og fine, og betjening hyggelig.

    (Translated by Google) Miserable service. Informed the waitress that I had 40 minutes available before I had to leave to catch a flight on Flesland. No problem said the waitress; The food is ready in 10-15 minutes. What happened? Took 38 minutes before the food was ready. Not recommended if you have limited time. (Original) Elendig service. Informerte servitøren at jeg hadde 40 minutter til rådighet før jeg måtte dra for å rekke et fly på Flesland. Ingen problem sa servitøren; Maten er klar på 10-15 minutter. Hva skjedde?

    (Translated by Google) We were really looking forward to a good Indian meal after warm recommendations and showed up 15 minutes after opening at 15..the restaurant was empty of people but we were told that there was no available table until 17.00..was past at 16.19 and it was still not people ... wondering if the guests were invisible or if there was no interest in cooking for three people so early. ?? HUGE DRAWER !! (Original) Gledet oss veldigt til et godt indisk måltid etter varme annbefalinger og møtte opp 15 minutt etter åpning kl 15..restauranten var tom for folk men vi fikk beskjed om at det ikke var ledigt bord før kl 17.00..gikk forbi kl 16.19 og det var fremdeles ikke folk...lurer på om gjestene var usynlige eller om det ikke var interesse for å lage mat til tre personer så tidlig.?? KJEMPE SKUFFA!!

    We were looking forward to going to Arti but unfortunately had a very bad experience. We came at 19:30 as booked, but we got served food only over an hour later. The biryani we got had lots of bones and the tandoori mix had only 5 small bits (which I was very surprised of as in most restaurants mixed tandoori is quite a generous portion for the price you pay). In addition, the rice for tandoori was completely plain. I have never tasted such plain rice at an Indian restaurant. The paneer naan didn’t taste well either. There wasn’t much paneer in it at all. All in all, bad service and bad food. A bit bewildered how one can expect to give tips in advance when you order online at the restaurant! Good thing we didn’t choose that option when we ordered. Really really bad!
