Having been informed by many local people that The Little India restaurant in Travira was worth going to. Mr L -Singh is a delightful gentleman who welcomed and gave advise to certain dishes. Our starter of popadoms ,pickles and chicken shish kebab was a tantalising starter - this followed by chicken korma ( as I am a little wimpish to hot spices) and my husband had a hot lamb rogan Josh. We had 1 rice and a pashwarmi nan between us which was plenty. Overall the meal was tasty enough to warrant a return visit. Anul and the staff are very welcoming and friendly.

Chrimbo dinner in the Algarve this year was this gem of a place, chicken bhuna and a lamb dansak and usual accompaniments, stressed to the boy that I couldn't be dealing with it swimming with grease and he assured me it'd be kushty...
He was bang on....probably the best curry I've had in Europe, so kudos to the chef and staff.
Bonus points for stocking kingfisher lager

A great find. Excellent staff and the food was really tasty. You can adjust the spiciness level for each dish too.
Highly recommended

A lovely place where you can eat both indoors and outdoors. We were warmly welcomed, which is not always guaranteed during peak tourist season. The food was excellent, with generous portions, and the service was attentive and precise. The value for money is also very good. Overall, a very positive experience!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SERVICE!
Unfortunately, our delivery via a third-party service went wrong the driver had been on the road for 30–40 minutes, so the food arrived cold. After one quick phone call with the restaurant, everything was handled perfectly.
Without any hesitation, they prepared a fresh order and even delivered it themselves by car. The food arrived wonderfully hot and tasted absolutely perfect, just like always!
This level of customer care is rare these days. Truly outstanding service and dedication. A huge thank you we will definitely keep ordering from here! 🌟👏🍽️

We intended to try several Indian restaurants during our stay in Tavira, but we visited Dawat on our first night and had such a great time that we wanted to look no further. The food is delicious, outside area lovely to sit in and the staff are just fabulous. Everyone made us welcome, remembered us…

House full on a Saturday in September. Lack of communication with the employees caused the appetizers to come at the same time as the main course. The food lacked its characteristic flavor and the lamb meat was a little tough. The kitchen could not keep up with the demand, in my opinion.

A wonderful experience with the family. Very accommodating service who welcomed us warmly and made us feel very well taken care of.
Very cheap food, great food that you get full and good of. Highly recommended.

Mouth-watering Indian cuisine awaits at Dawat.
We took a chance on this when we discovered that our original restaurant choice was closed for that evening. Thank goodness we did!
The onion bhajis had a great taste and were the perfect starter.
Our mains impressed. I enjoyed a chicken and spinach…

Incredible that one can find one of the best (subjectively experienced) Indian restaurants in Portugal.
The service was attentive and friendly.
The food, however, was even better; anyone craving authentic Indian food should not pass this place by.
Always happy to return!
