The Story

Tucked into a quiet side street just off Newcastle’s Quayside, Khai Khai has become one of the city’s most celebrated restaurants since opening in 2020 — and the fan base speaks for itself. Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay hailed the Old Delhi butter chicken as the best curry of his life, and food critic Grace Dent raved about their signature tandoori broccoli. The kitchen describes its culinary direction as “retro Indian comfort food”, drawing on the full spectrum of India’s regional food traditions to create a menu that feels both familiar and genuinely surprising.

What To Order

The Quayside setting adds atmosphere, but the food is the main event — precise, punchy cooking that makes even simple dishes feel considered. The tandoori broccoli alone is worth a booking, and the Old Delhi butter chicken is as good as the hype suggests. If you’re visiting Newcastle and only have time for one Indian restaurant, Khai Khai is the one to choose.

Good To Know

A 4.6-star average across 1,349 reviews makes Khai Khai one of the best-reviewed Indian restaurants in this guide.
