I had ordered goat biryani. It was lil oily and was lacking lil salt. Portion size and meat quantity were great. I found to be better than Jewels of India, Biryani City, and Spice6 overall.

This place is the worst of them all, the food is the last quality. The place is almost empty all the time. I ordered two paneer dishes one paneer mhakni and one paneer tikka masala. Now I know that paneer tikka masala is not supposed to have cashew, but when I asked the manager, he told me with a rude attitude that everything has cashew. And Naan was raw. Bad bad bad

Btw this used to be Tiffin’s Indian restaurant and has been changed to Red Chillies. This place is clean was big. I went for the lunch buffet and they have a variety of items. I would give more than 5 starts for that. I would give a 4 rating for the taste. May be I am a bit picky. But the over all experience was pleasant and would recommend to go if you like Indian food.
