The list
- 1Concourse · $$ · 161 St-Yankee Stadium (4 B D) · 980 Morris Ave, Bronx, NY 10456
An Indian kitchen near Yankee Stadium that was an immediate hit when it opened in 2015. Reviewers consistently call it some of the most polished Indian cooking in the borough, with strong vegetarian and vegan options.
Game-day proximity aside, this is genuinely dialed-in Indian food.
It is an easy stop before a Yankees game, and both the butter chicken and the veg dishes deliver.

A long-running Riverdale institution and successor to Cumin at the same address. More than 150 reviews praise its consistent, scratch-made North Indian sauces.
Riverdale's steady hand for butter chicken and paneer done properly.
The butter chicken is the benchmark order, and you can ignore any online 'fusion' label, it is straight North Indian.

- 3Parkchester · $$ · Parkchester (6) · 2146 Starling Ave, Bronx, NY 10462
A family-owned Parkchester spot open since 2018 and among the best-reviewed Indian kitchens in the Bronx. Generous portions of North Indian tandoori and curry at low prices.
Big, well-spiced plates that make it the neighborhood value pick.
It is great for takeout, with the saag paneer and butter chicken as the go-to combo.

- 4Riverdale · $$ · 5225 Broadway, Bronx, NY 10463
A Riverdale go-to billed as 100% halal Indian and Bangladeshi food. Known for balanced tandoori, biryani, and a green chutney regulars rave about.
The green chutney alone earns it a spot in the Riverdale rotation.
The chicken biryani travels well, so ask for extra of that green chutney.
- 5Mott Haven · $$ · 3 Av-149 St (2 5) · 2960 Third Ave, Bronx, NY 10455
A South Bronx halal spot in Mott Haven blending Indian and Bangladeshi menus. It fills a real gap in a part of the borough with few sit-down South Asian options.
Genuine korma and butter chicken in a corner of the Bronx that had almost none.
The chicken biryani and korma are the reliable orders, and it is a rare sit-down option down here.

- 6Parkchester · $$ · Parkchester (6) · 2107 Starling Ave, Bronx, NY 10462
A steam-tray anchor of Parkchester's South Asian strip since 2009, serving Bangladeshi, Indian, and Continental dishes. Halal goat biryani and kala bhuna draw the crowds.
Point-and-eat halal comfort food with a goat biryani that keeps regulars loyal.
Go at lunch when the steam trays are freshest, and make the goat biryani your pick.
