Wasted $15 bucks on the frozen pack of veggies on the name of Navratan Korma. Veggies were completely raw. Throwing the whole food was the only option.

Feels like a diner but the food is good. Pakora and samosas stood out – eggplant dishes were great. Service was OK – they weren’t clear on vegan.

We don’t get over her as often as I’d like, but every time I do I remember this is my favorite Malai Kofta and mango lassi in town. Indian restaurants are generally good for vegetarian options, but this one is EXCELLENT, with extensive selections.

We are big fans of Indian food. Persis offers an incredible assortment of Indian dishes. Not just the “usual” stuff but things I, as an American, have never seen or tasted. What a wonderful adventure and place to bring a group for bite sharing! Fantastic staff. Beautiful environment. Generous portions.

I visited this restaurant with my friends and we enjoyed the food. It was delicious and nice staff. I talked to one of the chef’s, his name is Sasi, as far as I remember, basically tamilian but speaks telugu also. He gave dessert as a complimentary. The food reminded me home.

Most flavorful Indian restaurant in the GR-Lansing area. Biryani is top class, fried rice is amazing, pongal is finger licking good. Second time to this place even though an hour away from Grand rapids. Will comeback again for sure.

Finally tried this place after many years of meaning to (after tasting very memorable samples at “Taste of the Town” events). SO good! Butter chicken and Persis Bread Basket were our favorites. Will definitely be back soon and will bring the kids. Can’t wait to their dosas which weren’t available when we stopped in.
