A Family Tradition of Authentic Indian Cuisine

A Family Tradition of Authentic Indian Cuisine

At Village of India, authentic Indian cooking is more than a business—it's a family tradition. Located at 9221 Two Notch Rd in Columbia, SC, our restaurant is led by Master Chef Daljit Singh and Neelam Rani, who are dedicated to sharing the flavors and hospitality of India with every guest. Chef Singh spent more than two decades perfecting his craft before opening Village of India, bringing generations of culinary knowledge to every dish we serve.
