Not only the worst Indian food I’ve ever had but also the dirtiest. Buffet is so small for the price and no flavor at all. I told them I couldn’t even finish my first plate due to how dry and flavorless everything was plus how dirty the booth was but still had to pay. The employees are also very rude. I’m not sure how this place is in business!

First time enjoying Indian cuisine and oh my goodness! The chicken tikka masala was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. It’s tender pieces of chicken in the smoothest, most decadent sauce. Paired with the mozzarella naan was the perfect supper. The staff were very nice and attentive as well. I will absolutely be back and try more dishes

A couple of weeks ago, I ordered Indian food from this restaurant, but when I came back home, I realized they forgot to give one of my orders. When I wanted to check on my orders before I leave the restaurant, they assured and asked me to not to check my foods in the bags. I called and asked for the refund for the missing food only, but they even only refunded partial of the money even after a week later. I regret that I gave them almost 20% of tips for my take out order. Overall, it was a very unpleasant experience and very poor customer service I ever received in Lexington, KY.

Authentic Indian food!!! Saag is phenomenal… Did takeout this first time trying this place and the naan was a little soggy when we got home and tried it so next time we’ll eat in as it still tasted good but eating it right away when hot and fresh would be the way to go… Sweet and spicy shrimp I ordered it hot and it was very good!! In each dish we ordered unique and very different flavors, great job owners and management

It appears that they have a lunch buffet again, although I came for dinner. The chicken makhni, mushroom karahi, basmati, garlic naan, mango lassi, masala chai tea, and kheer are all good. Prices are slightly higher than they have been, but that’s Biden, not Masala.

By far, the best Indian restaurant ever. I have been to Indian restaurants all in the country and outside the country— no one compares. Food is absolutely delicious and full of flavor! Everyone that works there is friendly and super hard working! I always order the chicken tikka masala and the garlic/cheese naan.

My absolute favorite spot to eat in Lexington! The BEST Chicken Tikka Masala and naan! I visit every week and get food to go (most of the time) and it is usually enough for two servings!

WOW! This place is delicious! I have never had Indian cuisine before trying this place today. I was shocked at how flavorful my food was. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala at a medium spice level. I also added an order of their Naan bread to go with it (the bread is a must, it is so delicious and is perfect for dipping down in your Masala sauce). My mouth was filled with an explosion of spice and flavor that is totally different than anything that I am accustomed to eating on a daily basis. I enjoyed everything about it and to be honest, I feel like I have been cheated by never being introduced to Indian food before now. I highly recommend trying this dish and this restaurant.
