At dinner the 45,000 won Set B (green salad, boneless tandoori chicken, two curries, naan & rice, lassi) came with the rice swapped for plain naan and butter naan, each piece as wide as three palms side by side. With butter chicken makhani and chicken tikka masala as the two curries, India The Durbar makes an easy, mild introduction to Indian food near Coex. ## Good to know - **Address**: 15 Samseong-ro 84-gil, B1F, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (about 605m from Samseong Station Exit 4) - **Hours**: Daily 11:00-23:00 (last order 22:30) - **Parking**: Use the nearby Yeongdongdae-ro 85-gil public parking lot; 1 hour of parking covered on orders of 45,000 won or more - **Ordered**: Set B, 45,000 won (green salad, boneless tandoori chicken, two curries, naan & rice, lassi) - **Curries chosen**: Butter chicken makhani, chicken tikka masala - **Lunch sets**: Served 11:00-14:00 (Lunch Set A/B); single-person sets also available *as written by the visitor on Sep 20, 2026* This time I wanted something a bit different, so I went to an Indian restaurant near Samseong Station!

We picked the two most popular ones — butter chicken makhani and chicken tikka masala. ![Butter chicken makhani curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-13-l8nsx-966.webp) [Butter chicken makhani] With tomato and cream, it was very smooth and savory — a curry that's hard for anyone to dislike. ![Chicken tikka masala curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-14-qs3yy-966.webp) [Chicken tikka masala] A touch of spiciness kept it from getting too rich — a well-balanced curry. ![Table set with both curries side by side](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-15-qul14-966.webp) ![Table with naan ordered instead of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-16-qpjuy-966.webp) ### Swapping the rice for plain naan and butter naan We ordered only naan instead of rice — plain naan and butter naan. ![Large naan the size of three palms](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-17-sdgya-966.webp) Wow...! I was shocked at how huge the naan was?! It's the size of three palms put together. Hahaha. ![Freshly grilled plain naan and butter naan](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-18-d5hy7-966.webp) The naan, hot off the grill and chewy, was delicious dipped straight into the curry. ![Dipping naan into curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-19-thni5-966.webp) ![Naan topped with salad and tandoori chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-20-12nlq-966.webp) It's also great wrapped up with the green salad and tandoori chicken! Ordering two curries together meant we could switch between different flavors, which was nice. ![A glass of plain lassi served at the end](https://img.superchart.com/images/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan/samseong-indian-setb-two-naan-21-195dk-966.webp) Finally, we finished with a glass of refreshing, rich plain lassi for a clean, complete meal :) ## Is Set B at India The Durbar worth it?
