Our Story
A LEGACY OF FLAVOUR ARRIVES IN KATWIJK
Authentic Indian Fine Dining • Heritage • Tradition • Excellence
Every Great Restaurant Begins With a Story
For Dine India, that story began when Shweta started sharing her family's cherished Indian recipes with friends and neighbours in the Netherlands. What started as intimate gatherings around authentic home-cooked food quickly became something greater. Guests returned for the rich flavours, aromatic spices, and genuine hospitality, bringing friends and family along to experience it for themselves.
Encouraged by this overwhelming response and drawing upon years of experience in customer service, operations management, quality control, and leadership, Shweta transformed her lifelong passion into Dine India, a restaurant dedicated to preserving and celebrating India's rich culinary heritage while delivering an exceptional dining experience.
