    The food is delicious especially the vegetable balls and gulab jamun. But the food prep takes a quite long time

    If you are looking for authentic Indian cuisine in kigali, step in to Red Handi is mandatory. You will never regret for the all over services including taste, aura, ambience, flavour, portion size, and warm hospitality. Highly recommended restaurant. My personal choice will be a step ahead than Khana Khazana.

    Beautifully decorated restaurant offering delicious Indian cuisine. The service is good and the prices are reasonable. This spot is a bit tucked away but is worth the visit when you are in Kigali.

    Very nice group meal around a big table with what looks like a baggage claim carousel to move the dishes from one end to the other.

    Very much enjoyed the deliciousness and lovely ambiance of Red Handi Indian cuisine. The sauces especially are well balanced and well seasoned with a medium.hot spice level we requested Particularly good was The palak paneer spinach and paneer dish Coconut 🥥 fish curry with tilapia...I think African tilapia is a stronger tasting "meat" on a later visit also tried the stuffed tandoori paneer which is beyond delicious...like petit paneer sandwiches. crunchy on the outside..tenernand flavorful on the inside! The .mutton dish had yummy gravy but.the meat was tough and chewy ..which was disappointing Jeera rice cumin basmati rice excellent Onion kulcha. Excellent Mint paratha quite flaky and nice As for the ambiance service and decor ...beautiful relaxing and on point. A guest was smoking ..which is not allowed I side public spaces and the management handled it nicely and asked the guest to take the cigarette outside and apologized to us profusely The privacy partitions between tables are both practical and lovely...laser cut wood panels directing various animals, birds and dieties So many nice artistic touches throughout and even some brightly colored contrasts One suggestion I do have is to light the path to the rest room better.

  • 5/5 Amitabh b. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is Delicious and service is amazing. We ordered Lahusni chicken Tikka and Chicken Tikka makhani for starters, which were absolutely delectable. Main course was Mutton Rarra which was exquisite along with Dal makhani and chicken Tikka masala which were delightful. Overall we had a great time with friends. Special thanks to Ashray for making our evening special.

    One of the Indian restaurants in Kigali, although not really fancy but simple and peaceful. The hospitality of the manager is commendable (brownie points to him)

    great sauces just don't sit at the spinning table and a great place for a cocktail party or special celebration in the very cool back lounge
