Indian Fendalton occupies a convenient spot inside Fendalton Village, where its dining room provides a composed setting for the restaurant's broad regional menu. The kitchen does not present Indian cooking as one uniform flavour: its selection moves through contrasting uses of fruit, coconut, mustard, spinach, tomato and warming spices. That variety makes the Clyde Road restaurant well suited to groups who want several distinct curries rather than minor variations on one sauce.
Starters show the range of the tandoor before the main dishes arrive. Paneer and mushrooms are marinated and roasted, while chicken appears as tikka, garlic kebab and green herb hariyali tikka. Fish tikka and tandoori king prawns extend that charred, spice-led approach to seafood. A vegetable platter gathers samosa, onion bhaji, tandoori mushroom and paneer tikka with mint and tamarind sauces, providing a straightforward way to share several textures.
The curries include several house signatures with clear differences in character. Lemon chicken carries fresh citrus and fenugreek, mango chicken is finished with almonds and raisins, and anari combines chicken or lamb with pomegranate and spices. Vindaloo brings Goan heat and vinegar, while Malwari draws on coconut cream and mustard seeds. Seafood choices continue that range through a coconut-and-mustard fish curry and prawns prepared in a creamy makhani sauce after tandoor grilling.
Vegetarian mains are treated with the same attention to texture. Malai kofta places paneer, potato and nuts in a cashew gravy, seasonal eggplant is roasted in the tandoor before meeting a drier sauce, and kaju corn curry layers cashew into both the sauce and the main ingredients. Vegetable, chicken, lamb and prawn biryanis broaden the rice choices, while breads run from wholemeal roti and garlic naan to sesame or chocolate-filled versions for a sweeter final bite.
