Service was great the medium spice level was just right for us. (We like spicy) We were able to order online, and pay from their website.

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. I have never understood the hype of Garlic Naan until this delicious meal; it glittered with the butter, was both crunchy and soft, and made me understand what other restaurants’ Garlic Naans strive to be. Besides that, I ordered Paneer Tikka Masala and it was so good it was hard to stop eating even after I was full LOL.

I’m a little confused why the rating is not higher, because i’m happy to report that we’ve tried different dishes about 3-4 times now, and each time was pretty good!

We randomly selected this place after finding that our original restaurant choice was closed. That change in plans ended up being a really good thing. We arrived with wine and intended to eat there despite this primarily being a take-out place. The owner was very accommodating and friendly to us. The food (especially the tandoori mushrooms) was delicious, fresh and perfectly spiced. We will definitely be back!

Buffet has a good variety and the staff are pleasant. I mentioned that they had run out of some items and they immediately had the chef make more. It was just after lunch hours and we were the last customers in the restaurant. They didn’t make us feel rushed. Place is clean and food is pretty delicious. Way better than most places I’ve seen rated higher around here and absolutely reasonably priced.

Love this place. Great food, buffet is one of the best in the area (a lot of choices here as well). One of the few that will regularly serve goat (if that’s your thing) in the buffet which is rare to see. In addition, the options on much of the vegetarian dishes change quite often which is a huge plus to try different variations of dishes. The interior is well kept, and the service is great. Definitely our go to for our indian fix.

Came here with my 2 year old son, to get some food to go. Very friendly staff, gave my son some complimentary ice cream, which he loved. The food tasted really good and authentic. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for some good Indian cuisine. I will be a repeat customer.
