Never had a bad meal. Always consistent size, flavor and quality of food. Good pricing so you can order call several types of main dishes. Some of our go-to is the Lamb Curry. chicken tandoori, Saag paneer, curry chicken. Garlic Naan is always a must!! The offer delivery with uber eats. One of out local favorites we continue to use. Every time its package very nice and every thing arrive hot and ready to be service!!!

We went there today and were very dissatisfied with the food quality. They serve frozen foods from packets in gravy made at the restaurant. We ordered ‘Kadhai Goat’ but most of the pieces were raw and uncooked. This only happens when frozen goat meat is used instead of fresh meat. When I asked why wasn’t the dish cooked properly – the staff responded that they are about to close in an hour and can not replace the dish. I also ordered ‘Naan’ and a ‘ Layered paratha’ – the naan was a bit sweet, and I believe it wasnt fresh either and people at restaurant used the frozen bread from some store and just baked it in oven. layered Paratha was raw from inside (photographs attached).

I went to have dinner with my friends to this place. We ordered chicken and lamb biryani. Chicken biryani was so so but the lamb biryani was so good. It tasted like typical Indian style. I would recommend this place for lamb biryani. Ambience is good and customer service can be little better.

Yummy food!! One of the best restaurants in CT for Indian food. I loved the Indo Chinese menu and Veg thaali. They have many options. Especially the chicken chilli was so tasty. The Thaali comes in good quantity for two people.

The food was amazing and the portions for take out were much more than expected! I had the chicken Tikka masala and the shrimp poori! Both were exceptional, but the shrimp poori with pappad was perfection!

Food was delicious and tasty. But they sometimes don’t pick the phone. So that’s need to be corrected.

Some items were really good, like the chicken biryani. But others failed like the Rogan Josh. I rated three star as they are pricey relative to quality and quantity. They also messed up our order but tried to make up for it as much as they could though.

Today was my first time going to this place since I’ve lived here in Windsor for most of my life. Let me tell you, coming here for buffet during lunch time was amazing. The food was so delicious, very comfortable place to be at and very welcoming. Would most definitely recommend anyone who’s curious about trying out this location.

I went here during the height of the pandemic so I’m not sure if it can accurately capture The service, but I’m basing my review on just the food. I ordered the butter chicken and chicken tikka masala, along with naan and rice.
