About this place
Will you scoop up curry with naan, or enjoy it with rice? At ELLORA, choosing what to have alongside your curry is part of the meal. One visitor who went with a friend and ordered different curries and flatbreads praised the naan for its light, fluffy texture and how good it tasted dipped in curry. Another mentioned enjoying garlic naan with butter chicken; if bread is what you’re after, that pairing could be a good place to start.
The curries include vegetable options as well as meat and seafood dishes. Choices include aloo gobi, with potato and cauliflower; chana masala, made with chickpeas; and palak paneer, with spinach and cottage cheese. One visitor’s lunch order paired dal tadka and paneer tikka masala with paratha and plain rice. With several curries to share, you can vary the breads and rice to suit.
There are also sets built around biryani, separate from the curry-and-naan combinations. Choose from chicken, vegetable, mutton or prawn biryani; each set comes with salad, the soup of the day and a soft drink. A visitor who ordered the chicken biryani described it as spicy and generous in portion. For a starter, vegetable samosa and potato cheese tikki are among the small plates on offer.
Alongside curry and rice, the menu includes South Indian dishes such as idli, mendu vada and curd rice. For dessert, there’s mango ice cream or kulfi; drinks include chai and mango lassi. The menu offers plenty to choose from for either lunch or dinner.
