Their happy hour meals/prices intrigued me, decided to give it a try. Average experience overall. I arrived at 5:20, there was a banquet going on, but no one in the actual restaurant section. I was seated near the doors to the banquet & eventually another couple arrived. It was just the 2 tables for happy hour dinner between 5:30-6:30pm last Friday.

We had our wedding reception at Royal India and it was an amazing experience! The decor, food, DJ, and table set up was great! Sam was so helpful in planning and ensuring we would not have to do or stress about anything the day of our party. The staff was very friendly and helpful. All of our guests loved the food!

This place serves best chicken tandoori, the burnt Smokey flavor was just what we hope for when we order a tandoori, must try. We also ordered vegetable spring roll which is similar to Panda Express and not authentic Indo Chinese spring roll which we get in India. We ordered shrimp biryani, it was really good and had wok flavor, more like a pilaf, but really tasty. Service was good. Must try.

Not really an authentic Indian taste but still delicious. I recommend their tandoor paneer. Curry was ok. Overall it was an ok experience I would say. I wouldn’t recommend going here unless you have no option.

Mohammed was a fabulous server!! Took care of our large birthday party and even with there being a banquet going on, we got wonderful service and the food was delicious!!! He really wanted to make sure we were taken care of! The manager was awesome too, really helped out when they were super busy. Also, Mohammed is super cute with a very nice hair cut! He even looks great in glasses!! I’d go back just to see his cute face again!

food here is absolutely good..we ordered butter tharka kofta,paneer naan chilli naan, onion naan and potato cauliflower pakora..samosa chat ..paneer tikka kabab.. everything was good..tharka kofta and chilli naan were best among all..i ll rate 4 starts for thier food alone..but the service was tad slow..and the not very attentive too..we had to wait for about 20 mins for them to take order and food takes somemore time to arrive too..also we had remind three times to bring a extra spoon..no one came to refill water too..though the food is very good the price is very expensive compared to the restaurants which offers same kind of food..

The worst Indian food, or food in general, I have ever had in any restaurant. The person who made my food has never been to India, and has no idea what any of the food is supposed to taste like. Forget about authenticity, it was just awful. Inedible. DO NOT GO.
