I cannot stress this enough: this is some of the BEST food I’ve ever had in my entire life. If I could take this restaurant and carry it around with me wherever I go I absolutely would. Not one thing we ordered was subpar or even mediocre; it was ALL delicious. The mango lassi is like sweet heaven. The vegetable pakoras were absolutely splendid, but for a sauce I think I’d rather dip it in a yogurt dip. The chicken korma with basmati rice was OTHER WORLDLY. THAT IS A MUST TRY. The garlic naan was bomb, and the tandoori chicken was really good as well. Everything was a 10/10 and I need them to come with me back to Alaska.

I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, Garlic Naan, and a Mango Lassi, and every bite was a delight. The chicken was tender and flavorful, perfectly coated in the rich, creamy tomato-based sauce. The garlic naan was soft, fresh out of the tandoor, and had just the right amount of crispiness and garlic kick. The mango lassi was the perfect finish - refreshing, creamy, and just sweet enough to balance the spices. Everything was served hot and fresh, and the flavors were truly authentic. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more from their amazing menu. Highly recommended!

We were delighted with the server who made excellent recommendations, the authentic cuisine, the variety offered and the personal attention provided by management. The sauces were delicious with complex flavors, sweeping our conversation to India.

Came in on a Saturday expecting to only order some naan, but the south Indian section of the menu piqued my interest and I ordered some idli sambar too. Also got some roti, an Indian staple I'd never eaten before. I walked out of the restaurant feeling extremely impressed with what I'd eaten! The idli sambar, a lentil-based soup with carrots, was absolutely delicious and would've been even better on a colder day. It was served piping hot and really warmed me up. Four types of chutneys were provided - chili, mint, tamarind, and coconut - and I loved them all. The chili chutney shined the brightest of the three in my opinion. Nothing could have prepared me for the garlic naan. I seriously could eat Siri's garlic naan every day for a year and not tire of it! If you're in the vicinity and wondering where to eat, look no further than Siri. I'll definitely be back!

First time there for lunch with a friend who recommended it. Been to a lot of Indian restaurants in Portland and this was just as good as some of my favorites. For now I gave them 5 stars and would go back again in the future.

We moved to Portland 18 months ago and have been trying lots of new places. Siri is by far our favorite Indian restaurant. The quality is excellent and every time we get their food it never disappoints. The sauces are well defined compared to them tasting muddled and all the same when we've eaten at other Indian places. Highly recommend!

My fiancee and I were walking around 23rd when we smelled an amazing scent in the air! We followed our noses to Siri Indian Restaurant. We absolutely love Indian food and were excited to try this spot. It was a very quiet Sunday evening when we came in, only one other table being served. We wanted to order food to go but then decided just to sit and eat there. They seated us right away. The menu has lots of options and plenty of vegetarian choices as well with every thing clearly labeled. The only "bad" thing was we had to ask for some water as they didn't bring it to us at first. The server was wonderful, very attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked! Had just the right amount of spice and flavor. We were in heaven! And the best part, a full dinner for two was only 31! Mind blowing concept in Portland. We had to take the rest home for leftovers as we were already full. The restaurant was busy by the time the dinner rush came around and I was not surprised! We will definitely be returning!
