The Story

About This Place

Hill Top Curry sits on Hàng Hòm, a street in Hanoi's Old Quarter better known for lacquerware shops than subcontinental cooking — which makes its 4.7-star average across more than 1,300 Google reviews a notable signal in a neighborhood saturated with tourist-facing restaurants. Indian food in Hanoi is a relatively small category, and the sustained volume of positive ratings here suggests it holds up under repeat visits, not just first-timer curiosity.

The Hoan Kiem setting is convenient for guests staying in or near the Old Quarter, and the address puts it within walking distance of Hoan Kiem Lake. The restaurant draws a mixed crowd of expats, Indian visitors, and locals curious about curry — the kind of clientele that tends to be more exacting about authenticity than a venue on a pure tourist strip.

With no menu detail available, specifics about individual dishes are limited, but the category — Indian, with curry as the clear anchor — positions Hill Top Curry as one of the more established options in the city for anyone seeking a break from Vietnamese food. The rating density (over a thousand reviews at that score) implies reliable execution rather than a single viral moment. For Hoan Kiem dining where the default is pho and bún chả, it fills a distinct gap.

Honestly, it might have been the greatest meal I’ve ever had. We orderd three different chicken + sauce meals, 2 plates of naan, and one grilled charcoal. Everything was delicious, bread freshly baked, sauce very tastefull, chicken tender. The service was also great.

Forgot to take a photo before we started eating but the food was phenomenal. The malai kofta was different than I’ve ever had before but so delicious and flavorful. Every single thing we got was amazing but the samosas were easily the best samosas I’ve ever had. Spicy and perfectly cooked with the sweet white sauce. We definitely left here full.

Certainly not worth the walk. As curry enthusiasts we were encouraged by several groups of South Asian groups in the restaurant when we arrived. Our server looked bored and we had to help ourselves to table and a menu. The meat dishes were OK but boring. The Naan and roti were awful. My wife described them as cardboard. I don't think I have ever left Naan behind in a restaurant before, but there's always a first time. Give it a miss, there's are plenty of better options in Hanoi

This was my first time experiencing Indian food in Vietnam and it was delicious. I was really craving Indian food and when I searched on Google I saw this place had a high rating of 4.8. I would give it 5 starts if I could because the food was great. The location is great as it is not to far of a walk from the main backpacker area. If you are searching for good Indian food in Hanoi please come to this. I would recommend! I got the chicken korma and rice. Price 200,000 vnd
