Indo Grill

A complete letdown for Indian cuisine: ​As someone who loves Indian food, this experience was genuinely heartbreaking. The Naan and Roti were borderline inedible—hard, brittle, and felt more like chewing on stones than fresh bread. To mask the average quality of the curries, they simply overloaded them with raw chili powder rather than balanced spices. To top it off, we waited an eternity for our food, only to be hit with a mandatory 18% service charge. Paying a premium for such poor quality and neglectful service felt like an insult. Save your money and go elsewhere else but do not try Indian food at Indo Grill

We visited Indo Grill in Moab, the town’s only Indian restaurant. While the menu features Indian dishes, the flavors are very Americanized and not authentic. We tried Chicken biryani, Chicken Tikka, Chicken 65, Fish Curry, Mixed Veg Curry, Chicken Curry with Garlic Naan and Roti. Unfortunately, the curries were disappointing — the fish curry was overly sweet, the mixed vegetable curry had mostly potatoes and broccoli, and the chicken curry was bland. Chicken biryani was not even close to Indian biryani. As someone familiar with authentic Indian cuisine, I found it lacking, though it might be enjoyable for visitors looking for a milder, more Westernized version of Indian food. Overall, it’s okay if you want Indian-style dishes in Moab, but don’t expect traditional flavors.

Extremely disappointing food quality. The Tandoori Paneer Tikka was prepared without any marination — the paneer was directly put into the tandoor, making it dry, bland, and tasteless. Veg Biryani was not even close to biryani; it was worse than plain pulao. There were no spices at all, it was white in color, and we initially thought it was pulao. The only vegetables added were potato and cauliflower. Also raisins and cashews in it. I seriously doubt if the chef understands what authentic Indian cuisine is. There was no chili, no turmeric, and no basic Indian spices used in either dish. Stay away from Indo Grill.

My wife and I stopped here for dinner while visiting Arches National Park. The vibe of the restaurant was good, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the food just didn’t match the atmosphere. We ordered one Chicken Biryani (with raita on the side) and one Lamb Korma, which came with a side of basmati rice. The portion sizes were good, but the flavors were far from what we expected. The Chicken Biryani was honestly awful, nowhere close to actual biryani. The essential spices were missing, so there was no aroma, no depth of flavor, and it tasted more like a simple pulao. On top of that, it had an excessive amount of dry fruits like cashews and raisins, which completely threw off the balance. The Lamb Korma was slightly better than the biryani, but still not great. Surprisingly, the curry had mustard paste in it; definitely not a typical ingredient for korma. It seemed like it was added to mask the strong lamb smell, but the mustard paste wasn’t prepared well and left a bitter aftertaste. The lamb itself, however, was tender and cooked properly. Ironically, the best thing we had was the basmati rice on the side. It was perfectly cooked, lightly flavored with ghee, and honestly tasted better than the dishes it came with (if only eating rice alone was an option, lol). The food also took quite a long time to arrive, so by the time it came out, we were already pretty hungry; which made the disappointment even stronger. Overall, great ambience and good staff, but the food quality needs major improvement, especially for the price and for dishes that are supposed to be flavorful classics.

Best Indian meal, had the samosa chaat, butter chicken (rich and delicious), lamb biryani (large lamb chunks), garlic roti. It was all amazing, large portions, come hungry you won't regret it. It one of those restaurants where everyone takes left overs home, to good to waste.
