Passage to India

Passage to India has been serving Northern and Southern Indian cuisine in Salem since 1994. The interior features a roomy dining room separated from a full-sized bar, creating an environment that is great for both families and singles. The most requested dish on the menu is the Chicken Tikka Masala, although seafood, lamb and beef specials are also popular. Passage to India is in the midst of expanding its offerings to include live music and belly dancing on the weekends.
