Our humble ode to the bygone era of time well spent with family and friends, of cooking and serving authentic Indian cuisine with passion love and loads of time..
Which literally means, eat, drink and laugh open heartedly – an ignorant
Sahebs - the Indian restaurant, simply put is a love affair with Indian cuisine,
with the age-old traditions of our grandmother’s cooking, the history of Indian food and the Indian culture of “Athithi Devo Bhava” which means “Guest is God”.
Of Course, the history of cooking the best Indian cuisine is rich in history and tradition – From the great vegetarian indian cuisine of the Ayurvedic era to the Persians and their tandoori meat cooking techniques to the colonial era of European influences and “Fusion Indian cooking “ techniques , fine Indian dining, naturally gluten free and vegan, has imbibed it all and become more richer by association.
We, Sahebs – the Indian restaurant, located at Orchard road Singapore are passionate proponents of our authentic Indian cuisine and service standards for the last 30 years but we try not to take ourselves too seriously – life is also about having a good laugh and we believe there is nothing like a GREAT Indian meal to realize; that the ”here and now“ is what matters and everything else in life (the job, wife, kids and so on) generally tend to take care of themselves.

October 9, 2024Seems to be a fairly new place on Orchard Road. Nicely done. Good food, good service. Some unique items like the yam and raw mango kofta.

October 9, 2024Wow. My partner and I decided to come to this lovely restaurant for dinner. I must say, we have never experienced such amazing Indian food in our lives. If you’re... read more in Singapore, then you NEED to come to this restaurant! The owner is also very sweet and clearly cares a lot about the restaurant and comfort of the customers. Although recently opened, I would not be surprised if this restaurant received a Michelin star soon. The chicken tikka masala was full of flavour and creamy so I recommend highly. The lamb biriyani was also very succulent. Garlic naan was not too overpowering and had just enough crisp to it. Thank you for such a wonderful dinner. This is a must try restaurant! ❤️
October 9, 2024Best Indian place in Singapore!

September 9, 2024They say - First impression is the last impression. This saying may not really be practical. But yes, first impressions do make an impact. They often decide whether one should... read more even want future impressions or not - especially when it comes to food. Our first impression at Sahebs was decent. Food ordered was authentic Indian in taste and cooked to perfection. Pudina paratha, Baigan bhartha and onion spinach pakoras were really tasty. Old Indian Hindi melodies of O P Naiyaar, Kishore kumar and Asha Bhonsale playing in the background livened the atmosphere. Reason for 3 star rating: Hygiene standards need to be improvised a lot. One of the clean plates served to us had a small hair stuck to the edge. The transparent glass bottles holding drinking water were full of hand prints on it. Covering the head and wearing gloves while serving can help eliminate this issue.

September 9, 2024Found this gem at Claymore Connect, next to Orchard Hotel. You feel welcomed from the moment you step in. Greeted by Sandeep, owner of Sahebs, you immediately feel at home.... read more Sahebs has a wide variety of starters, grills, main course and drinks. We absolutely loved the Achari Panner Tikka as the panner melted in our mouth. The chicken tikka purani dili was another immensely satisfying dish, served as a sizzler. The oats and lentil kebabs stole the show! A must try! Sandeep recommended trying the Awadhi Yam and Mango kofta curry. It was a stunner!! The koftas were soft and rich, and the curry gave so much flavour to the whole dish. Highly recommended. The black daal, surpisingly not heavy at all, reminded me of my mum's food. Overall - 10 out of 10. Keep up the great hospitality and consistency! I am sure Sahebs will be a hit.
August 18, 2024Great place for Indian food with amazing service and friendly staff!
August 13, 2024Excellent Curry, with good recommendation by the chef to try the lamb curry when we had been looking at chicken varieties. Lamb was indeed excellent and so was a spicy... read more take on a butter chicken. Heat levels were perfect for our palate (Australia) on these generally milder curries and Naan was great too.

July 28, 2024Been eating here for a while now. Love their food and its amazing. Everytime I want to change up the taste, maybe add spice, I choose to come here.
July 28, 2024A quiet place just off of Orchard Rd with a great atmosphere and even better food. After trying multiple Indian restaurants in the area, I have decided Sahebs is the... read more best around, and at half the cost of the other places. If you are looking for the best food around, friendly staff, and a reasonably priced meal - this is the restaurant for you. I’ve gone twice this week since finding it.
July 26, 2024I stumbled upon Saheb’s by accident and I am sure glad I did!!! I am fortunate to travel into Singapore twice a year for work and on my last... read more trip Saheb’s wasn’t here. I truly love Indian food so when I was walking past it today I knew that had to be my spot for dinner. Let’s talk about my experience; First off, the place is beautiful and the atmosphere is very relaxing and tastefully designed. Secondly, both gentlemen that I dealt with (one was the owner I am pretty sure of it) were very hospitable and friendly. Lastly, the FOOD!!! To say it was delicious doesn’t do it justice. I was alone and knew if probably regret it but I ordered the Sri Lanka Devilled Wings (extra spicy) and the Butter Chicken. Both were packed full of flavor and their presentations were spot on! The wings were crispy (the way I like them) even with all that spice on them and the Butter Chicken was creamy with a slight touch of spice. Oh let’s not forget that Garlic Naan, OMG!!! Crispy, buttery and the Perfect amount of garlic, it was absolutely phenomenal. Saheb’s instantly became a stop on all my future trips back to Singapore. I HIGHLY recommend Saheb’s!!!

We sat outside for 20 minutes and the waiter’s were not making eye contact with us and they were not even interested in taking our orders. After 20 minutes we decided to leave the restaurant.

The location is very convenient, the decor done in a classy way with both indoor and outdoor seating. So as expected food and service was impeccable. I take pictures of all the dishes as we were here for a business dinner .I can't wait to come for leisure lunch and explore the menu leisurely. This round we ordered Golgappe,Achari Paneet Tikka and Tandoori chicken all heavenly. Main course we went with Yam and ram mango kofta and railway mutton curry.All amazing.

Great food. Well executed
May 18, 2024Saheb Indian $150 for 2 (including drinks) Convenient location at the corner of claymore connect. Restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. Decor is old school Indian (in a... read more good way) Starters: Yogurt filled golgappe and a refreshing ginger lime drink. Golgappe were a delight and yogurt was cooling in this weather. Presentation was also perfect. Drink was passable though. 4 stars Main course: I ordered the spinach lamb with thick gravy, paneer (cottage cheese) Parantha, raita (yogurt) and aloo Parantha (stuffed potato). Everything was cooked to perfection and served hot. The photos don't even do justice to the authentic cooking of these dishes. 5 stars here. Dessert: Carrot mashed and cooked typical Indian style. Served hot. (Gajar ka Halwa). This was also good and I recommend. Was served with a generic ice-cream. Ice cream was avoidable. 3 stars I must mention the owner Mr. Sandeep here. He was the star of the show. Working so hard and talked so passionately about his restaurant. It was wonderful to see a hard working gentleman, trying his best to make this place work. I wish him all the best and hope this restaurant does well.
May 18, 2024Wow, what a good choice to have our diner here. Great food, great atmosfeer and very kindly people. Highly recommanded

All were delicious! Also for drinks, went with the mocktails: Fresh Watermelon Agua Fresca and Highway lime soda, both were great! The people who worked there were responsive to their customers and very friendly. Highly recommend a visit here!

May 1, 2024I had the butter chicken and a side order of the garlic naan, and it was absolute nirvana! Having eaten Indian food in restaurants across the globe, including the... read more US, the UK, and even France, this rates among some of the best I’ve had! The seasoning and spice level of my main dish was perfect, and complimented well with my Kingfisher beer. The naan was soft, chewy, and crispy all at one (how the hell did you do that?) and very flavorful! The service: Perfect! Very attentive to his guests, warm, and friendly. I only had one disappointment with my experience and that was that I couldn’t convince the owner to pick up shop and move closer to where I live in the US so I could eat his food at least once a week! I strongly recommend giving Saheb’s a shot. You won’t be disappointed!

An Unforgettable Dining Experience! - Nice friendly restaurant with the best authentic pan-Indian food at reasonable prices. We started with aperitif wine and Masala peanuts (beware of chillis). Then we had lamb dum biryani- the... read more lamb was so delicious and succulent. And the homestyle chicken curry was equally great as the chicken was tender without being mushy.
