Passion India Beachlands is a neighbourhood Indian restaurant on Wakelin Road, close to the coast and arranged for more than takeaway alone. Its warm, modern dining room takes table reservations for casual dinners, celebrations and quieter meals, while pickup and delivery cover nights at home. The current schedule includes evening service through most of the week and daytime dining later in the week.

Starters provide two distinct ways into the menu. Samosa, onion bhaji, paneer pakora and mixed vegetable pakora lean on crisp pastry or chickpea-flour batter, with herbs and spices giving each filling its own character. From the clay oven come yoghurt-marinated tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, garlic tikka and lamb seekh kebab, with mixed and tandoori platters designed for sharing across the table.

The main courses cover a broad family of sauces rather than concentrating on a few staples. Paneer makhani and vegetable korma give vegetarian diners creamy tomato and cashew-based choices, while meat and seafood can be matched with butter, korma, tikka masala, mango, Madras, rogan josh, vindaloo, kadhai, saagwala or jalfrezi preparations. That structure makes it straightforward to compare mild, rich curries with sharper tomato, spinach or spice-led dishes.

Beyond the curries, Passion India includes Indo-Chinese cooking, biryanis, rice dishes and a full Indian-bread section, followed by accompaniments and dessert. A compact combo packages a curry with rice and plain naan, but the larger menu rewards a shared order of starters, mains and breads. Together with table booking and the relaxed Beachlands setting, that range lets the restaurant serve both an uncomplicated local dinner and a longer group meal.
