What Makes Curry & Ketchup an Experience You’ll Never Forget
Have you ever stepped into a restaurant and felt instantly transported — not just to another place, but to another world? That’s the feeling we work tirelessly to create at Curry & Ketchup in Majorstuen, Oslo. We’re not simply about serving food. We’re about crafting an experience. One you’ll share with friends, crave when hunger strikes, and remember long after the last bite.
This isn’t a typical Indian restaurant. It’s a culinary and cultural journey — a fusion of authentic Indian traditions, Indo-Asian creativity, and warm Nordic hospitality.
Authenticity With a Twist
At Curry & Ketchup, our mission is simple: flavor should surprise you. To achieve that, we bring together chefs from Sri Lanka, Nepal, and India, each carrying their own culinary heritage. The result? A menu that stretches beyond the ordinary, offering:
Tamil curries that highlight the deep, aromatic traditions of South India.
Nepalese momos and dhal-based specialties.
Indo-Asian fusion dishes where East meets South Asia.
Street food classics you’d usually only find in bustling Indian markets.
Of course, some dishes have become our signature favorites.
Butter Chicken: tender chicken marinated for hours, cooked in a clay tandoor, and simmered in creamy tomato gravy. A comfort food staple in Oslo.
Garlic Naan: hand-stretched, brushed with garlic butter, baked fresh in the tandoor.
Indo-Chinese Chilly Chicken: a fiery, crispy chicken dish — unique in Oslo — that has become a cult favorite among regulars.
Our approach isn’t about volume. It’s about intention. Every dish is crafted to carry both heritage and creativity.
More Than Just Food: An Atmosphere That Transports You
Dining at Curry & Ketchup is about more than taste. It’s about immersion.
From the moment you enter, the décor speaks. Wood panels, carved sculptures, warm lighting, and bold Asian artwork merge with Nordic rustic touches. It’s intimate, colorful, and filled with small details that spark curiosity.
Our space feels like a story — part Indian spice market, part Nordic cabin, part Asian temple. It invites you to pause. To soak in the textures. To share laughter at the table. To celebrate the act of eating together.
A Restaurant That Builds Community
What sets Curry & Ketchup apart isn’t just what we do, but how people respond to it.
Guests don’t just dine once. They return — with family, friends, and colleagues.
They share photos on Instagram and TikTok. Our butter chicken has become a must-tag moment.
They review us — over 3,000 reviews across Google, TripAdvisor, and Restaurant Guru, consistently ranking us as one of Oslo’s top Indian restaurants.
They recommend us by word-of-mouth, often calling us the “hidden gem” of Majorstuen.
The truth is, we never set out to be everything for everyone. We set out to be something special for those who want more than a generic night out. That focus has fueled our growth — in reputation, in loyal customers, and in community love.
What People Say About Us
Here are just a few voices from our guests:

Why We Stand Out in Oslo’s Restaurant Scene
Oslo has no shortage of Indian restaurants. So why choose Curry & Ketchup?
Authenticity + Innovation: We honor traditional recipes but aren’t afraid to experiment with fusion. You’ll find butter chicken and biryani alongside Indo-Chinese chili chicken and Nepalese momos.
Affordable Quality: Oslo is expensive. We believe great food should still be accessible. Our portions are generous, our prices fair, and our quality uncompromised.
Atmosphere That Feels Alive: Our restaurant is not sterile or minimalistic. It’s textured, warm, colorful, and alive — like India itself.
Hospitality That Warms the Heart: Inspired by the Indian saying “Atithi Devo Bhava” — “The guest is god” — our team goes beyond serving. We host, we guide, and we connect.
A Destination, Not Just a Meal: Whether it’s a romantic date, a family dinner, a birthday, or just a casual night out, Curry & Ketchup feels like more than a restaurant. It feels like a cultural experience.
From Takeaway to Catering: Bringing Curry & Ketchup to You
Not every experience has to happen inside our walls.
Takeaway & Delivery: Our packaging is designed to keep curries warm, naan soft, and street food crispy. Order online and enjoy an authentic Indian meal at home.
Catering: From weddings to office parties, we bring full-service catering with customizable menus. Whether you need buffet-style dishes, vegan-friendly menus, or tandoori grills, we deliver with the same attention to detail as in our restaurant.
Why Customers Keep Coming Back
There’s a reason why our regulars say, “This isn’t just food, it’s family.”
We’ve become a place where:
Friends celebrate milestones.
Colleagues wind down after work.
Families gather for Sunday dinners.
Travelers stumble upon us and leave with a story to tell.
Food is at the center. But connection is the glue.
The Future of Curry & Ketchup
As we look ahead, our goal isn’t to become the biggest chain or expand into every corner of Oslo. Our goal is to deepen what we already do best: creating unforgettable experiences for every single guest.
That means:
Constantly refining our recipes.
Adding seasonal specials inspired by India and beyond.
Hosting events that celebrate culture through food.
Continuing to make Majorstuen a hub for Indian food in Oslo.
