Best Indian food near Cotonou, Littoral Department, Benin

May 27, 2020 Jacquiline Darosa

Find out what Indian restaurants to try in Cotonou. Home to many diplomatic services and the largest population in the country, Cotonou is the de facto capital of Benin, although not the official one. Its location at the crossroads between numerous neighboring countries makes it a commercial hub, instrumental in opening trade to the African interior. From Cotonou travelers may depart for tours of the outlying regions. The nearby stilted village of Ganvie is a short day trip from the bustle of Boulevard St. Michel and the Dan Topka market.

Looking for a change from our hotel's standard buffet dinner, we ventured by cab to a nearby Indian restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the meal, given that Cotonou is not quite a tourist destination! I had the Rogan Josh lamb curry, one of my standards .. and it was as good quality as you would find in any other location. Service was very friendly and helpful, and speedy. And the cost very reasonable. We went back on our last evening in Cotonou, and were not disappointed.

Visited with a friend that had dined here before and is from India. So when he said the food was good that removed the risk of the unknown.After looking at the menu for a moment, I decided to just let my friend order. I told him fish or chicken would be great. So I wish I could report the names of the dishes we enjoyed, but I can report they were good. I would go back again, for sure.

Nice environment and excellent quality food. Good ambience. It is necessary to book on weekends as the place is mostly occupied with guests
