However Indians being a hard worker and good earner community, you will find Indian population in almost all areas of Houston.

Speaking strictly for restaurants, Sugarland has a wide variety of Indian restaurants. If I compare Sugarland to many Indian cities, I will say Sugarland offer more diversity when it comes to Indian food. Houston offers Indian meals from as low as $5 a person buffet to $200 plus for seven course dinner at selected high end restaurants. Sugarland has North Indian restaurants, Pakistani restaurants, Halal meat restaurants, South Indian restaurants, Bengali restaurants and may be a few more different types of Indian restaurants.

In Houston on Hillcroft road there are a few Indian restaurants that offer very cheap buffet in the range of $5 - $7 per person. These buffets are very popular among office crowd. Most of these restaurants are North Indian restaurants. However on Hillcroft road itself, you will see many budget South Indian restaurants as well.

When it comes to elite Indian restaurant in Houston, the honor goes to Aashiana. In my rating, because of their exclusive range of wines and fine dinner, I will rank them among one of the top restaurants in all cuisine. If you are a vegetarian, then Madras Pavilion is best vegetarian restaurant in town.
