Ifra’s Indian Kitchen

Nice traditional Indian food next to Dadeland in a mall with good parking. The food was a good balance of spicyness and local flavors, it came out fast and at an eatable temperature, we recommend the naan, lassi, dosas and platter for multiple biryani-style food snd tandoori proteins. Service was fast and friendly and atmosphere local enough with music videos of people dsncing traditionally.

Delicious food! I love this restaurant. The menu has excellent options and food tastes like it’s been prepared with the freshest ingredients. The people are kind and welcoming. I would definitely come here again! I ordered the Chicken 65 as the appetizer, and the mango chicken (not pictured) and dhansak chicken (pictured). Everything was delicious and served quickly. Great spot for an easy week night dinner or a nice weekend out

We had lunch here and the food was absolutely delicious. We had the Tandoori mixed grill, the butter chicken with rice and the garlic & cheese Naan breads. We also had the mango lassi drinks they were really yummy. Service & food amazing! We highly recommend coming to this restaurant.

The food is so authentic and delicious! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! This place brought back home memories - perfect spice level and cooked to perfection. The service was beyond amazing. Such cozy, calm and peaceful atmosphere. I was blown away with the authenticity - hard to believe this place is in the heart of Florida! Overall the entire experience was totally worth it and I’ll definitely be back whenever I visit Miami again!!

All can say is wow! , what an amazing experience dinning here , the authentic taste truly comes out in every bite, The flavor is insatiable, I really recommend Ifra’s Indian Kitchen Restaurant to anyone who is seeking to to dine Indian Cuisine. The Chicken Tikka Masala is to die for along with the Mango Curry Chicken! Maya was so attentive and her service was exceptional. Hands down one of the best places to dine in south miami.

First, let me start by saying I blindly picked this spot because I hadn't had Indian food in a while and didn't look too into what they actually offered. I should have though because they have some really interesting dishes that I'd like to try in the future! When I got there, I was very surprised at how reasonably priced everything was especially considering the location. The food was delicious although I ordered medium spicy when I should have gotten spicy because it wasn't spicy enough for my tastes. The vibe was relaxed, I went on a Friday evening so things weren't very crazy, it was mellow overall which was nice. Get the cheese naan!

I’m so glad to find a great halal restaurant here. It was a nice date with my partner. I ordered chicken curry with garlic naan. It was divine. I ended up ordering food to go for the rest of my family. 10/10 recommend this place to everyone. They have vegetarian options as well!! Staff is so sweet and always around to make sure everything is okay.

To die for!! I've been in Miami a few days now and this is by far the BEST restaurant I've been in. The food was EXTREMELY fresh and hot. They even have vegan options. I got the Aloo Gobi with the lunch special. My daughter got lamb and her husband chicken.... they fought over her lamb, it was so good.

Amazing food and a super cute date spot in Miami. Honestly some of the best Indian food I've ate in a long time and server was so kind. Heavily recommend to anyone that likes Indian cuisine or would like to try it out!

First time visiting Ifra's Indian Kitchen and the food, service, and ambiance was top tier. The host recommended the popular appetizer and dishes and we could not agree more. Definitely will return again soon!

Unfortunately, I took no pictures. I took one look at the warm, buttery naan and it was game over. This place is how I imagine going to a friend's house for dinner. The food is home-y, inviting and warms the soul. I tried the butter chicken, lamb rogan josh, dal bhindi and a side of butter naan. SO. GOOD. The portions are plenty - don't be fooled. I'll have food for the week. The rice is cooked to perfection. The naan is as soft as a pillow. The flavor of each sauce is so rich. Have I convinced you yet? Pay them a visit. I'm certainly coming back to eat at the restaurant, and I'm asking for recommendations. The staff seemed very nice and the restaurant itself is simple and cute.

Definitely one of the best Indian cuisines I've ever had in Miami. I discovered Ifras on Uber eats a week or two ago and told myself I had to come through and dine in at their location. The ambience was cute and tranquil. The service was excellent. This is an absolute gem. Today i ordered the lentil soup , Goat curry and Palak paneer. Absolutely delicious! The spice was right just perfect, the portions are just right. Everything hit the spot. Really looking forward to returning soon. I highly recommend Ifras if you're looking for a delicious meal. I promise they will not disappoint.

I like it here very much, the environment is very clean and the food tastes very good I recommend everyone to come to this place

We tried this place for the first time. I went according to the great reviews and was excited to try it but we were all disappointed. Let me first start with the service. Our waiter was less than happy to be there--very serious, dry, not friendly--just going through the motions. We ordered Butter Chicken, Chicken Korma and a Lamb Curry dish. All very bland and just okay. We did order Onion Kolcha and Garlic Naan. That was good. We even ordered a spicy chilli sauce on the side and that was just okay as well. Overall, just okay all the way around. Don't think we will be returning.

insane authentic Indian food. Very flavorful and not expensive compared to others in the area with higher quality for sure

Amazing food here. Legitimately thought it was my mom's cooking for a minute. Very nice staff and very friendly. I also enjoyed the chill atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone wanting to try some good indian food.

Normally I would have walked out of this place because they had no air conditioning. But stayed because I was with family. The tandoori mixed grill was extremely salty. STOP OVERSALTING YOUR FOOD! The korma was okay. I wouldn't come back here.

With a very homely ambience, ifra delivers quality good food with exceptional service. I'm come here multiple times and each time has been an absolute joy. Definitely recommend!

We were completely fooled by the reviews. We wanted to dine in at a place closer to our hotel and this one popped up. I picked it up after reading the reviews. Even though its name has "Indian Kitchen", it's more of a Pakistani style food than Indian. We picked up a corner table and the lady handed over the menu. She mentioned that all items are available. We ordered the Chicken Biriyani, Mahi Mahi Vindaloo and Naan. There were a few other customers picking up the food. We waited almost 20 minutes for the food to arrive. Will start with the best food. That was Naan. It was soft and fresh. The chicken biriyani was different- loaded with dry fruits. It was evident that the chicken was cooked separately and added to the rice. It lacked any flavor the rice had. Kind of disappointed the way it was done. But the Mahi Mahi vindaloo was the ultimate disaster! The fish was not fresh, even though claimed it's fresh. It was dried/frozen fish, half cooked and added to the Vindaloo gravy! Even though the gravy had its flavor, but nothing for the fish. We just left it as it was. We even spoke to the lady about it. But she was adamant that it's fresh! Luckily they served white rice on the side - at least we had something to eat! Overall a disappointing experience. We had to waste a lot of food just because of the poor quality. Moreover they are in complete denial about what kind of fish they used. This place had a 4+ star rating and didn't leave up to the expectations. We were there for an hour - looking at their customer base, looks like it's so easy to fool people with kind of food they serve as "Indian food".

The spicy biryani was my favorite, and the Gobi Manchurian was absolutely delicious. It's a must-visit spot if you're craving Indian cuisine, with a wide variety of non-veg options. The staff was friendly and courteous.

Horrible service, overcharging for the food and low quality. Takes too much time, rude people.

Best Indian food I've found in Miami. It's babe average overall. Very nice staff. Small place but good atmosphere. I go here once a month.

A 3.5 stars from me. I tried their mango chicken for a change. I did not enjoy this as much as their chicken tikka masala dish. I would not have this dish again.

My families favorite indian restaurant in miami!!! they have the best butter chicken and naan and if you're feeling hungry, the samosas as an appetizer are amazing! the servers are always so nice and it is perfect for a casual or dressy date night.

Food is amazingService was ok. We felt a bit rush by the server, an older gentleman but we dealt with it the best we could. I love the ambiance and decor of the place. Trust me it's not what you would expect from the outside. It is surprisingly really pretty inside. I would definitely come back for the food since it is amazing!

The lady on the phone was so nice! Ordered butter chicken and garlic naan to-go and it was delicious! So so good. The portion size can feed two! The garlic naan was fluffy and cooked to perfection and the butter chicken was great. Thank you!

Quick and attentive staff, Maya our greeter and server was very kind in explaining to us our meal and what we could do for the best deal and a taste of everything. Was an overall great experience! The ambiance is petit but cozy.

My new favorite Indian restaurant. I had chicken tandoori, it was succulent, seasoned perfectly, delicious. The garlic naan is to die for, my son had butter chicken, his wife a lamb vindaloo, they both raved about their dishes. Oh, the vegetable samosas are great. The service & ambience spot on!! PS Generous portions

Overview The mango lassi is one of the best I've tried lately, and the naan, plain, garlic, and cheesy, are very good, but the actual food is lacking in flavor AND spice, the service is a little slow. The Experience My parents invited my aunt and me to have a bit of Indian food, and since our usual spot wasn't open, we selected Ifra's. We started with a couple of mango lassies (mango-flavored yogurt drink) which were really, really good, and 2 rations of samosas (the menu has chicken and vegetable samosas, but they didn't have chicken, so we got the vegetable. Each ration has two, good sized, well filled samosas. with a ver mild taste, but pretty good regardless. They come with tamarind sauce and mint sauce... the tamarind sauce was good enough, the mint sauce was not up to expectations. Again, the flavor isn't bad, but you've definitely had better (I know I have). The main courses were where the real problem started. We ordered two Tandoori Chickens, one Chicken Tikka Masala and one Chicken Korma. We specifically requested one of the Tandoori chickens and the Chicken Korma to be extra hot. There were three issues with all of them: 1) almost no salt. easy fix: the salt shake on the table. no problem 2) almost no flavor. yes, even after applying salt. both the mild dishes and the supposedly spicy dishes had such a bland flavor, that if it weren't because of the colors and/or sauces, you would have trouble to accept they were actually prepared. 3) no spice at all. now, this is a plus for the non-spicy (mild) tandoori and to the (mild) non-spicy tikka masala, but the Korma had no spices at all, and I dare anyone to try the both the spicy and the mild Tandoori chicken and tell me which one was which one. My father actually sent it back and they brought it back "spicier". It actually was spicier than the first time, but I've had spicier "mild" versions in other restaurants. Now, I have the theory that Indian food restaurateurs eventually get tired of customers not knowing what they were getting into, and that's why there comes a point when they don't even try to deliver spicy dishes to the regular public. I can understand that business decision, and that's why I know I can go and usually order the hottest level in the menu because I'll be able to handle the spiciness... but this was ridiculous. There is a difference between mild-ing it down for the "delicate" unaccustomed Miamian palate, and a whole different thing to be bland. And that's what this was... I read quite a few reviews here saying it was either great or very spicy and I disagree on both statements: even if we disregard the lack of spiciness, as I said before, the flavor, while good, was very, very bland. The service was ok, if a bit (very) slow, even though we were the only occupied table in the whole restaurant. I don't know, maybe they had a bad day... But I don´t think I'll be giving them a second chance food-wise... but I'm very likely to go and get another mango lassie in the future.

So... since my last review of Ifras, I have ordered from here a few other times, and it has improved greatly. Butter chicken is really good, lamb saag is also really good and their chicken tandoori is nicely seasoned and cooked perfectly. The Naan is just okay, not the best. Lentil soup, you can skip this one... very watery and lacks lots of flavor. Service was good and prices are reasonable.

Was craving some Indian food and was reminded of this delicious spot a few blocks away from my place! Of course, I ordered lots of garlic naan bread and chicken tikka masala which was creamy and delicious. The portion was very generous. Food was ready at the time it said it would. Place is small and cozy, and though I've never dined in, it seems like a lovely place to sit for dinner.

We went the other day an hour before closing. We were the only ones there. Service was excellent and so was the food. We really enjoyed everything we ordered. We had vegetable samosas, paneer tikka masala, butter chicken. We also ordered garlic naan bread. We will definitely go back!

Not real Indian food chili chicken tasted like a bad version of sweet and sour chicken the sauce was almost jelly like in texture

The food was excellent! We went to another Indian store before this one a week ago and this one definitely beats the other place. The service was great and the staff was friendly. There is a parking lot you can park in so parking won't be an issue. It is a small restaurant just a heads-up. Wonderfully ambiance.

Excellent butter chicken! I am very happy with the portion size and flavor balance. Garlic Naan was great as well.

Lo recomiendo el lugar y la comida es espectacular,unos sabores que jamás había experimentado y me encantó.

Very good! We got mild and it was an appropriate amount of spice and it has a good aroma and fragrance. It was refreshing and I look forward to having it again. Thank you Maya for being extraordinary.

Had an absolute blast! Food was absolutely delicious and came so fast I highly recommend the lamb saag

We have been searching for different cuisines to try when we come down to visit family and this is our new favorite! We love Indian cuisine and cook it often at home but haven't been to a restaurant that wowed us. Ifra is amazing, the server was very attentive, the decorations and atmosphere were phenomenal. The food was out of this world delicious! Definitely a staple anytime we're in town!

The food is a STAPLE for Indian food lovers in the area. It's been my go to for so long, the chicken tikka and garlic naan are delicious. The attention that Maya has given us as a server was so welcoming. Will always come back

Absolutely NOT a buffet. Their website clearly shows buffet line with pictures. We did not stay.

This is my go to Indian restaurant! I eat basically anything that has chicken involved & it's great ! The service was great as well very nice people work there.

Excellent food and service, I had the lamb tikka masala and additional order of Naan. Portions are definitely generous.

I thought to stop by for a quick lunch, but turns out they do not offer lunch menu. A little disappointed, as I like how lunch menu lets me enjoy some soup/appetizer/dessert along with my entree, so I get to a fuller sample of their food, and also it's a waste when I can't finish the dinner portion but can't take the leftover with me. Anyway, I ordered a Biryani. It came in a timely manner. I love the flavor, it packs a good heat, but I wish the vegetables were fresher. Some were chewy or hard to bite into. Reading other reviews, it seems to be a recurring theme. I get a feeling that they are trying to compensate for the higher food cost with lower quality of ingredients. The place is bright and clean, unlike some older Indian restaurants that may look dim and dingy. Service is nice as well. Not a bad choice for neighborhood dining.

God bless the chef for the lamb tikka masala and goat vindaloo. This is the place for authentic indian food in miami.

I ordered Ifra's for delivery and I highly HIGHLY recommend! I ordered the chicken tikka masala as well as the chicken tikka tandoori with a side of rice and butter naan and a mango lassi. The order was correct and everything came nicely packaged. The food was delicious and left me stuffed. I was craving Indian food and this definitely hit the spot!

Hidden gem! Great place, affordable and portions are good for 1-2 persons. Real indian cuisine and great variety of dishes. Service was quick and friendly. The place could have a little more of music to improve the atmosphere.

We usually go to other Indian restaurants but decided to try Ifra's for a new experience. First parking is impossible. There are 7-8 busy restaurants in the strip mall so the lot was packed. Be patient and drive around a few times as one will open up, or go early. Ifra's was a hidden gem for us as the food was excellent. The bread basket with all the nan breads was excellent with the onion standing out. Loved the yogurt and cucumber side dish to use on the breads. Samosa with chick peas excellent and so was the vegetarian spinach and cheese cubes. Large menu with lots of meat choices. There are only 7 tables, so go early. Only request is to have another staff member. Huge amount of take-outs and 2 people had trouble handling how busy it was, but still had a smile and made you feel welcomed. A MUST TRY !!!

Great mom and pop shop for Indian food. Definitely recommend this one over many high end Indian restaurants. The chicken was so tender and not dry and my significant others butter chicken was amazing.

This is the real deal. So delicious !! So fresh. Place is always pretty dead, but the delivery/takeaway is also so busy. Such delicious butter chicken and garlic naan. Mmmmmmm!!!!

Ifra's has been a go too for me the last 2 years and every time I leave feeling nothing but satisfied. Maya does an excellent job of making you feel special ! Butter chicken, chicken vindaloo, chicken tiki, along with vegetable samosa and garlic naan are all to die for. Thank you so much Ifra's for always brightening my day. :))

Our first time here and we're so glad to have found this little quaint place. The food was delicious and the service was good. They have quite a menu with so many selections to please every palate. We recommend this restaurant and we will definitely return.

My husband and I ate lunch at Ifra's today. The food was delicious, just like home cooked and the service was prompt. We ordered the vegetarian thali which consisted of rice, daal, samosa, naan a vegetarian item from the menu and gulab jamun. The serving size was ample, enough to take some leftovers home. Thank you.

The restaurant was amazing, service was quick, and the food was very tasty. I've been going on a butter chicken tour as of late, so you could call me the butter chicken connoisseur. This butter chicken is definitely up there as one of the best in Miami (in my opinion). If you are thinking of going to that Bombay Darbar place, think again... and go to Ifra's Indian Kitchen.

The food was amazing! The palak paneer was the best I've ever had and I was able to choose my spice level which is not always offered elsewhere. Def get the garlic naan and gulab jamun!

Pretty good stuff. Not the greatest table service, and no wine or beer . Small place with five or six tables, one on the sidewalk. All the expected Indian faves, aloo gobi, chana, naan, chicken, lamb, goat and some beef in all the styles. Did I mention no wine or beer? That's the star loser.

Very disappointed with this restaurant. I ordered Lamb Rogan Josh and there were a few things off about the dish. First, I think they served me goat instead of lamb and I assume I wouldn't know the difference. Unethical and unacceptable. Second, the ratio of actual meat to watery sauce that was delivered to me was like 1:10. It was mostly a bowl of watery red sauce with a few tiny pieces of meat. And third, the food was over salted. I asked for spicy but instead got salty. Very yuck overall given that I paid $32 overall for one entree to be delivered to me (and that would have been more if I didn't have GrubHub Plus). Wish I had taken a picture to show the lake of red sauce lol.
