Authentic North Indian food, fully halal certified, open Tuesday to Sunday. Leyweg 986, Den Haag - 10 minutes via the A4. Rated 4.9 stars by 800+ guests.
From Leidschendam to Leyweg
Leidschendam borders Voorburg, and Voorburg borders Den Haag. Leyweg 986 sits just across that boundary - which means Chopras Indian Restaurant is closer for most Leidschendam residents than Den Haag city centre itself. Via the A4 motorway, the average drive is 10 minutes.
Paid parking is available in the Leyweg area. Public transport also connects Leidschendam directly to the Leyweg area via bus routes from Voorburg-Noord. Tram line 2 stops at Leyweg, a short walk from the entrance.
The menu spans 143 dishes across thirteen categories - from saffron biryani and slow-cooked dal makhani to authentic street food that is hard to find elsewhere in Den Haag. All from the same kitchen. Same spices, every evening.
Why Leidschendam Chooses Authentic
The Hindustani community in and around Leidschendam-Voorburg is one of the largest in South Holland. Families who have grown up with North Indian cooking for generations spot the difference immediately between a kitchen that takes care and one that cuts corners. At Chopras, whole spices are sourced directly from India and ground fresh every morning - before the first guest arrives.
The aromatic oils in cumin, cardamom, and coriander start evaporating within hours of grinding. Pre-mixed blends from suppliers never achieve the same depth. That is why butter chicken at Chopras does not taste like anywhere else - the sauce is built from spices that are still alive.
The tandoor at Leyweg 986 reaches 400 degrees Celsius. That temperature is not adjustable - it is what gives naan its char on the edges and chicken tikka its smoky crust. No conventional oven can replicate this.
Chopras also serves authentic Indo Chinese food in Den Haag alongside a full North Indian menu. Chilli chicken, chilli paneer, Hakka noodles - a cuisine category that is hard to find elsewhere in The Hague.
