Noori India Indian Restaurant

We were looking for an Indian restaurant near Central Samui and came across this place after seeing the photos and reviews. It looked promising, so we decided to give it a try. When we arrived, the owner welcomed us and brought some complimentary crackers while we waited for the food, which was a nice touch. We ordered several dishes and everything was excellent. The portions were very generous and the prices felt fair for the quality and quantity. The chicken tikka masala was definitely the highlight, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The garlic naan was also fantastic and went really well with the curries. Overall, everything we tried was very satisfying. If I stayed longer in Koh Samui and felt like having Indian food again, I would definitely come back.

Noori Indian Restaurant in Chaweng, Koh Samui, is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic Indian flavors on the island. From the moment we stepped in, the nice atmosphere welcomed us—vibrant yet cozy, with friendly staff greeting us warmly and making us feel right at home. The location couldn’t be better, right on Chaweng Beach Road, easy to reach and perfect for a meal after beach time. The food was excellent, bursting with delicious spices and perfectly balanced flavors. We started with the cheese naan—hands down one of the best I’ve ever had, soft, fluffy, and loaded with gooey cheese. The garlic naan was equally addictive, with just the right amount of buttery garlic kick. For mains, the chicken tikka masala was rich and creamy, the butter chicken indulgent and comforting, and the vegetable creamy curry was a standout for its fresh veggies and smooth sauce. The vegetarian biryani was fragrant and packed with layers of flavor—wonderful vegetarian options all around, catering beautifully to non-meat eaters. What truly surprised us were the French fries—seriously the best French fries I’ve ever had in Thailand! Crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, perfectly seasoned, they were an unexpected highlight. Service was good throughout—attentive, smiling staff who were quick to refill drinks and check in without hovering. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, offering great value in touristy Chaweng. Overall, Noori delivers top-notch Indian cuisine in a welcoming spot. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommended—5 stars!

The food was good. The prawn biryani and prawn tandoori were excellent. For the first time in a long time, I actually finished the whole masala dish, it was so good I just couldn't stop eating! I also noticed that they don't add food coloring, which is a plus. The service is good, and the ambience is okay—suitable for a local, authentic spot
