Ekta Indian Cuisine

The food is generally very good. But there is always a little miss. Last night it was the onion bhaji that was old/overcooked to the point of being almost inedible. $70 in takeout I would ask that it all be edible.

There food is always on point fresh and favorable only thing is the portions are not that big and there a bit pricy but overall they have some good food. I’ve traveled and reviewed a lot of Indian food places all over and this place is on my top ten Indian list

Great place to dine and take away Good tasty food, ample space and car parking is on the street

There are no words to convey the deliciousness of this food. The tandoori chicken was moist and perfectly flavored. The tikka masala was out of this world incredible. I have nothing but rave reviews. 10 out of 10 recommend. I will definitely return. Thank you for an amazing dinner. 🥰

I've only ordered takeout but this is my favorite Indian food in Philly and I'm still so grateful they have a location in my neighborhood now! They also are fantastic about accommodating adjustments to dishes 💚

Foods pretty good, cant complain. My issue is their website says that you order directly from them. Which, yes, you can order on their website, but its actually all done through door dash. Unfortunate.

Delicious and great portion sizes. The Ekta Biryani is full of rice and meat and flavor, the garlic naan could be smelled before ever even opening the bag, the paneer tikka is a great portion size and delicious. I’m excited to try more from here!

The food is amazing. It is spicy but so good. I got chicken biriani, samosa, and Gulab Jamun. Sooooo good. Will be my Ibdian place to go in Manayunk for sure.

Recently moved into the neighborhood and we've been here at least four times! The food is always pipping hot and delicious. The portions are large enough to get you at least two meals from each. The prices are high for a casual dinner, but right on par for most Indian places around. Since you get two meals out of it, my roommates and I can justify it. I mostly order over the phone, and as a dyslexic Italian I am pronouncing everything terribly, terribly wrong. The guy taking my order got a good laugh out of it, and when I sent my roommate to pick up for me (I was too embarrassed!) they told me that the gentleman chuckled when he went to get our order. Overall, the workers are super nice, the food is to die for, and theres nothing better than leftovers.

Indian eatery that appears more conducive to takeout vs dining in even though there is in house dining seating. The ordering process online was quick and easy and pickup was accomplished in a friendly and timely fashion with all items well and carefully packed. Onion Bhaji-was super delicious and perfectly flavorful, plus an extra bonus for not being greasy Garlic Naan-a perfect pillowy puff of naan with just the right amount of garlic Chicken Tikka Masala -the chicken was dry and stringy, making it a sad swimmer in the sea of exquisite Tikka Masala sauce. Basmati Rice-just sad, old and dry I'm hoping this was an off day, because the flavors deserve a return visit.

I've been to the fishtown location of Ekta a while ago and was surprised to hear they had opened a location in Manayunk. The Manayunk location used to be another Indian restaurant. When you walk in, you might not notice a huge difference from the previous owner, however, the food and prices have improved quite a bit imo. We decided to eat in and ordered a pair of entrees and a naan. They do not have waiter service and offer paper plates for dine in. We were given a huge amount of rice for our two entrees - more than enough. The mango lamb had a decent helping of lamb and mango. The butter chicken was amazing and, like the mango lamb, had plenty of protein. The peshwari nana was on point. I'd recommend EKta, although it is probably best to just grab takeout!

This is my favorite restaurant to order from because it's so consistently good and fast. Piping hot curry and fresh naan, if you told me it was the manna from the Bible i'd believe you it's so good. no other indian restaurant around compares.

I love Ekta, the Chicken Tikka Masala is my favorite, and the cheese filled naan bread is also great!

Delicious and fast takeout. Everything was great. We got the onion bhajis, aloo tikki, garlic naan, paneer madras, and butter chicken. Would get again

I read the reviews and had recommendations (though not for this location). How wrong they were. First there's really no option to eat-in, and just as well. Dimly lit and dirty. I got 2 entrees and asked for them to be spicy (just a bit less than trad, authentic spicy). What I received were both items covered in what was basically the equivalent of sweet, General Tsó's sauce. Veggies? Red and green peppers and onions. In both. Truly disappointing. Wish I could give half a star.

Best Indian in Philly! Love that they have chaat, as well. Everything is always great.

So happy to have this in the neighborhood!! The best Indian food around. The dal makhani is the best I've ever had. Everything is fresh and flavorful. Generous portions, always tons of leftovers.

Tried for first time last night. Takeout order was prepared quickly. I had mango chicken she had yellow lentils. We shared mango rice and raita. Everything was very good and reasonably priced. We will return often!

We tried food from here for the first time tonight. if you live in the area (or even if you don't) please give them a try. This is our go to Indian cuisine from now on. By the way don't forget the sides, which is often where restaurants skimp out. Onion bhajis were amazing as were the various pillowy naan and the amazing raita. From tandoori to paneer all was really good and great portion size. Thank you.
