Couple things to know about me: 1) I eat at Indian restaurants around the world. 2) I’m vegetarian and like spicy food), my husband is French (so, not vegetarian, doesn’t like spicy food). 3) I have no time for artificial anything in my food. I have a low threshold for crap.

So, Les Port Des Indian was an excellent surprise in Guadeloupe. The food was high quality and diverse options, they could cater to my husband’s mild preferences and my spicy/vegetarian preferences (I suggest asking for your dish to be spicier than French people eat, in order to come out perfect). The papadums were particularly good for a basic Indian item. My Chana masala was tasty and filling and their complimentary chutney mix was a delight.

While in an unexpected location, the ambiance is romantic and charming, the service quite good, and the prices reasonable for the service and food quality (remember, they’ve got to import a ton of the food). Competitor prices to good Indian food in a major American city.

Oh, and they do to go boxes, too!

I dined here with my husband, and the food is delicious and fresh!! Be prepared to live full! A free appetizer is given so I think it's best to not order one. I had the mixed main dish with rice and I also had another appetizer of fish and garlic bread DELICIOUS!!! The prices are a bit expensive but the ambiance and food is worth it. The restaurant is filled with Indian decorations, and with the soft Indian music it gives the perfect ambience for a romantic diner. Will definitely return here

Frankly the food served does NOT in any way or form justify the completely ridiculous prices. As for the very lengthy wait for the food to appear, well what can I say? Luckily for us, we were not paying, but frankly these prices are a complete rip-off. You'd need to be pretty stupid to go there often. We go to Indian/Pakistani restaurants all the time in Indian, and none of them have food as EXPENSIVE as this restaurant. Better off going to little Caribbean restaurants...!!

Five of us ate dinner here last night. We all loved everything. They had a child option for my 8 year old which was nice. We split samosas and garlic naan for starters. Then we shared chicken korma, chicken vindaloo, shrimp curry and tandoori chicken. We loved everything. The korma may have been our favorite. The service was good. They have good cocktails and wine list.the setting is really magical. This is the best Indian food I have had since my two trips to India. Subtle, beautiful flavors. Highly recommend.
