On a Hoan Kiem street lined with Vietnamese tea shops and street food stalls, India Palace Restaurant occupies a distinct niche — one of the few places in central Hanoi where diners can sit down to a proper subcontinental meal. The address on P. Hàng Tre puts it within easy reach of Hoan Kiem Lake, drawing both expats craving a break from pho and local diners curious about Indian cooking.
With 279 Google reviews averaging 4.7 stars, the restaurant has built a consistent following in a neighborhood that gives diners plenty of alternatives. That kind of rating in Hoan Kiem — where competition is dense and opinions are loud — suggests reliable execution rather than novelty appeal.
The setting suits the food: sit-down dining in a part of the Old Quarter that otherwise skews toward quick bites and sidewalk stools. For travelers staying near the lake, it offers a full-service meal with table service, a rarity on many of the surrounding streets. For Hanoi residents, it functions as one of the more established Indian options in the city center, a short walk from the busier tourist corridors but quieter for it.
The Hàng Tre location is practical — accessible on foot from most Old Quarter hotels, near enough to the lake to combine with an evening walk. India Palace fills a specific gap in Hoan Kiem's dining map: an Indian restaurant that has earned enough repeat business over time to maintain a rating well above the neighborhood average.

It was a random search in finding this hotel and one of a kind yummy gem that we found . Loved the food , ambience, the manager was an extremely kind person All the food was very tasty , right at start they gave a onion lemon set, green chutney, mango pickle I would just settle with that good start, aloo paratha , veg biriyani , paneer gravies, all types of roti everything was classic and very tasty PS: couldn’t take a better pic as we barged into the plate
As an Indian on trip with family I believe everyone search’s Indian food and so I did and just backyard of my hotel I have got this beautiful India palace hotel. As soon as we entered the Night manager welcomed me and made the seating arrangements. Then we ordered our food which was just 15-20mins of time. Chilen tikka masala can be little bit more silky gravy. Nan was good and the added condiments like onion pickle and green chutney was the deal cracker. Thanks to manager for making our evening great.
The food was too good we were 11 people and all eleven love the food it’s very delicious the place having positive vibes the staff member named harry was very kind must visit
We were a group of 12 people looking for good Indian food and this place turned out to be a great find. The food tasted authentic and everything we ordered was really good. A special thanks to Harry and Trang who were very helpful and made sure our group was comfortable and well taken care of. Their service made the whole experience even better.
Hands down the best Indian food in the area, but the service is what really sets this place apart. We had a party of 12 and Harry, the manager, went out of his way to get us seated quickly and efficiently. Our server, Trang, was a superstar—super attentive and patient with our big group. It’s rare to find a place that handles large parties this well. Highly recommended!
