The food was yummy. The lemon rice was a vibe. I will try to recreate it at home. The building is a bit older and didnt appear to be busy upon entering. However that was not the case because there were lots of people picking up to go orders. If I return I will do the same. Overall, it was a good experience. It was my husbands first time eating Indian food. He was pleased!!

I ordered chicken Biriyani, it’s no way near the taste of chicken biriyani. Too spicy even I ordered mid spicy. Taste 1/10 compared to the taste I get in New York restaurants. Totally not recommended.

I went to eat lunch buffet at this place which was about 12.99 base (~14.50 after the taxes) which isn’t so bad at all for a buffet. While the food isn’t amazing, it is plenty and filling for a buffet. The chicken bryani was pretty good and there is ample spice in all the rice dishes. The atmosphere is pretty low key and not usually too busy around the lunch time. Would recommend.

Ordered delivery. The mushroom saag was so salty as to be INEDIBLE – if I can’t fix it on the stove, I’ll have to throw it away – it’s that bad. Curry chicken, veggie samosas, and spring rolls were fine. Portions were somewhat disappointing for the cost. Delivery arrived about 20 minutes later than Beyond Menu estimated.

Stopped in here today for a quick lunch. I give this place 4 stars for the category I feel it falls under. This is definitely a “quick eats” type place.

I ordered a chicken biryani this time to just try it out, it wasn’t terrible but I will not be ordering again. I like their curries and other stuff though. Also there was no curry packed on the side and the raita served was just plain yogurt!

i’ve given too many chances without saying anything. They mess up my order every. single. time. it’s as if they don’t want to give me the food I ordered. The worst part THERE WAS A DEAD ROACH IN MY FOOD?!!?? Do not order from these people.

I ordered through Uber Eats. The Aloo Tikka Masada was amazing!! However the Saag Paneer was so oily that it was hard to even eat. The oil soaked through the container and the bag. I had to throw away two of the lids on my dishes because of how much oil there was. I tried to use paper towels to scoop out the oil but it only helped a bit.

Ordered butter chicken was heavily over cooked. The chicken literally looks black. Tandoori Roti was so undercooked that it is hard to cut. The restaurant officials were very rude in conversation. They completely ignored my complaints and just hung up on me. I will highly not recommended to go there.

Came for the buffet which was great. I’m not claiming it’s authentic because I have no idea but I stuffed my face and was able to skip dinner so it was like 2 meals in one 😀 It appear the city charges 2 different taxes so the final amount was more like $18 after tax and tip but I assume this is the norm for the area (tourist)
