"I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. Despite it being nearly empty on a Friday night and us having made a reservation, we were thoroughly disappointed. The service was a mess – I had to ask twice for a glass of wine and had to go find the staff, who were lounging in the back, to get served. Our appetizer took 50 minutes to arrive, and it took over an hour from placing our order to being served, even though there were only three occupied tables. We had the Lamb Saag, Chicken Tikka, Lamb Rogan Josh, and Dal Makhani – nothing outstanding, but not bad either. Getting the check was a challenge, and even after using the “pay online” feature, we were stopped in the parking lot by staff claiming we hadn’t paid. I showed them the e-receipt on my phone to prove we had. Overall, nothing positive about this experience. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously."

"When I called to voice my concerns, the staff member who took the order accused me of lying. I understand they might have customers who do that, but being called a liar was frustrating. I considered driving back for a full refund, but with my kids home from college, I didn't want to spoil our anniversary lunch. As for the food, it wasn't anything to write home about. The Butter Chicken was decent, but the Tikka Masala was dreadful—way too buttery, even more than the Butter Chicken! It felt unfair to be charged extra for such poor quality. I asked to speak with the manager, but no one reached out to me. I even sent an email, and still, no response. Overall, I had a terrible experience with both the food and customer service. I won’t be ordering from this restaurant again."

"As far as Indian lunch buffets go, Five Rivers is the only restaurant that offers it in the Westlake area for $15 (M-F 11am-3pm. The buffet items were not labeled and I wasn't sure what I was eating. So, my tip is, only get a little of each in the first round, in case you don't like chickpeas or lamb. Service was abysmal. I asked for naan bread but never got it. Maybe they didn't want me to fill up on bread? Other people got naan though. So jealous. You refill your own water at the soda machine or fill up on the milk tea dispenser. As far as the food, it wasn't spicy as I thought it would be. The chicken masala, tandoori chicken, samosa were my favorites. The other stuff were OK. I checked-in on Yelp but didn't get a coupon. The cashier gave me 10% off for trying."

"Hello RajMahal Indian restaurant,The food here is not at all up to the mark. We went there in the evening times in a chilly weather, but we are not satisfied with the food.We ordered :1. Mango lassi2. Mutter paneer3. Garlic naan4. Shrimp pakora5. Chicken soup6. Chicken fried rice.To be truth, only the mango juice is so good other than all every item is bad. Do they cook it fresh it is oily and it’s not all good to eat.But the vibe in the restaurant is kind of peace and calm with a good music but it shows why the people are not here too.Well, for the people who like to add the sweetness in every item, this is the very good place to visit.Feedback for restaurantI think you have to start stopping the sweet sauce in every item, also the food that you are serving is too much oily please fix that.Well, there are a lot to tell you but keep moving.Cheers guys, Have a good one."

"The chaats were disappointing. The papdi chaat was lacking nearly every spice, resulting in a bland and soggy dish. There was barely a hint of yogurt, and the sweet chutney was more sour than sweet, missing any spice or chili flavor. The Gobi Manchurian resembled a large cauliflower tree (it's important to break down the florets and crisp them up), and it was soggy as well! Surprisingly, the flavor was better than its appearance suggested. The samosa chaat was decent—while not exactly gourmet, it did have some identifiable flavors. However, it lacked the crispy edges typical of samosas and resembled more of a potato patty than a proper samosa, making it feel more like an aloo patty chaat instead. As for the vegetable biryani, I can't comment since they forgot to include it and asked me to return in person for a credit or to pick it up again. The paneer was average as well—nothing special, and while the cubes were soft, the curry was rather ordinary. The naan, on the other hand, was simply undercooked and felt raw."

"Finally, Indian cooking that doesn't load everything up with hot peppter to make up for lack of cooking expertise. They manage to spice things delicately to bring out the true flavors of the sauces and foods. I suppose if you want it really hot, they'll do it. Nice place to eat well prices are quite moderate also a dying art and have a conversation. What a concept! Highly recommended."

"Fried appetizers (4/5): I didn’t expect to see French fries at an Indian buffet, but they were surprisingly tasty! The samosas were quite good too, but I would skip the pakoras; they were over-fried and nearly burnt. Curry chicken (4/5): The chicken was tender and the curry had a pleasant mild flavor. Goat curry (3/5): The meat wasn't overly gamey, but it was a bit tougher than I prefer, and I didn’t enjoy having to bite it off the bones. Cabbage aloo (4.5/5): I love my veggies and always aim to have at least one serving a day, so I was happy to find cabbage on the menu. It had a wonderful spice and flavor, and combined with the potatoes, it was fantastic! Butter chicken (5/5): This was by far my favorite dish. The flavor was rich, and the sauce was thick enough for dipping my naan. I ended up going back for seconds of this! There were also zucchini, chicken tandoori, saag paneer, and a few other dishes that I didn’t get to try because I was too full, but I definitely plan to return!"

"the bombay palace is a jewel of a restaurant located in front of location, with authentic and tasteful Indian cuisine. Although it is a small restaurant, it is immaculately clean, the service is fast and polite, and the staff is very dedicated to the needs of food. we often have the same server every time we eat here, and he always remembers our usual order the samosas, chana masala, veg jal frazie, and two roti, all without milk. the vegetarian section of the menu is extensive, and they can be made vegan for almost everything on it (with obvious exceptions, like the discs). The roti and samosa are also vegan when they order them without butter. they're taking your guts on a little car. they get a huge common plate of cardamom jasmine rice, and each curry comes in a tiny carnival (a bowl over a candle to keep it warm.) the server checked to ensure that everything is in order, and then leave them alone, except their drinks once or twice refilling and coupled with the private stalls and Indian music playing in the background, this creates a very cozy atmosphere. everything we've ever eaten in the bombay palace was phenomenal! this is one of our favorite restaurants."

"I recently dined at a large Indian restaurant located at the intersection of RT 16 and RT 28 in Medford. Upon entering, I noticed a fixed-price lunch buffet available at a very reasonable price, and based on the meal I had, I’m eager to try it. I started with a mango lassi, which was creamy, refreshing, and better than what I’ve had at other places. For my main course, I enjoyed a fantastic biryani rice dish that included chicken, shrimp, and mutton. The bread basket featured a variety of naans that were delightful—hot and freshly baked. My wife ordered chicken tikka masala, which was lovely, and our chicken tikka appetizer arrived sizzling on a hot plate adorned with onions; it was excellent as well. The service was efficient and attentive, and the food was served hot. I have no complaints!"

"Spicy means indian spicy for Swad...which is great! Ambience is ordinary n regular but makes up with food and portion size, which are awesome. Next visit should be for lunch, cos a hearty meal such as these without an afternoon siesta to follow its not the same. Tandoori Nan was thin yet soft fish was done just right and mutton roghan josh was enjoyably spicy. Mango lassi for my teste was way too sweet.Vegetarian options: Good varietyKid-friendliness: Yes"

"This restaurant experience was far from satisfactory. I would give it zero stars if that were an option. We ordered Manchurian, but were served potato balls drenched in tomato ketchup gravy instead. When I brought this to the attention of the manager, who is not Indian, she tried to convince me that I was mistaken about Indian cuisine. Additionally, the Methi Malai dish I ordered was disappointing; it lacked cream and instead was topped with kasoori methi. To top things off, the service was poor and all the dishes tasted the same. As an Indian, I cannot recommend this place. However, if you're not familiar with authentic Indian flavors, you might be easily misled."

"We arrived minutes early. We were seated and given our menus and water. And then we waited. Two gentlemen came in and the greeter talked to them, and talked to them, etc. When, finally, he came to get our order, we ordered mango lassis and were told they might not have them. Heâd check. We placed our order...more servers arrived so new diners got more attention..,We never were told if there were lassis..but apparently not since we didnât get them. The food we did get was delicious, especially the Naan. But we wonât return."

"my waiter gave me the confidence to try several new dishes. so I tried to feed the vegetable pakora. I decided to try the mushroom bhoona and ordered my favorite saag when the escape. I love my saag level. I was in restaurants that insist that my saag contains at least one of the usual ingredients: paneer, aloo and sometimes chana, which I then painfully get out of my saag. one of my raw food cookers, originally from india, had a bio restaurant. she told me why they committed me to trembling my saag. if that happens, I'll go up and never leave the restaurant back. but in this restaurant my waiter had no problem to submit my request at the place. the vegetable pakora first arrived. I really liked it. but there were the tamarind sauce and green chili chutney that the pakora really made excellent. when my man came to a call to eat his pakora, it was cold (he hates cold food.) but my man liked this cold pakora so much, he always tried to ask me about it while he breeds them at once down he usually eats it and asks for a question. After the pakora was completed, however, he immediately announced to order the pakora again at our next visit. the mushroom bhoona and the saag came together. both my man and I were very impressed by these exotic aromes. when the rice arrived that was taken up with the bhoona, we had most bhoona and saag eaten. my man is a rice fan, so he can just sit and eat rice himself if necessary. I usually do not eat white basmati rice. wild rice, brown or black rice. but when they brought out these basmati, I had to try. it had interesting spots of seasoning in it. after a bite I sat and ate the half of the plate with the rest of my saag. I mentioned my waiter how much I liked the basmati. he explained all the preparations that go into making this special dish. it was quite impressive and he seemed very pleased to hear that I liked it so much. I hope he shared my compliment with the kitchen. I liked the way our waiter observed our food needs again and again when he came past our table. I noticed he didn't want to interrupt our dinner. but I knew if I looked at him, he would have come directly to our table if we needed something. that is the sign of a sophisticated waiter for me. a trait that I rarely see more in restaurant waitstaff. at the end of our meal our waiter offered us a free sample of the gulab jamun desserts. After he described this, I know I didn't order it alone. but we still tried. my man just yelled at me when I tasted this overly sweet dessert. he had observed my expression when I tasted him and offered me the other half of his rehearsal. it didn't come surprised when I told him that the next time we came, I'd order the gulab jamun dessert. I asked him how he knew I liked it. apparently it was the ankle in my eyes when I took my first bite that there was gone. so, now it is obvious that we already planned our return to this restaurant on our next trip to fresno. not only eating is very nice, but our waiter has made me feel that I will not forget. so it's easy to forgive the little girl that went into mine when I first sat and my man was outside on a call. they rode on an unusually large cracker that was in her hand and from a strange background she jumped in and sat on the stand for several minutes. it seemed completely unlikely for the difference between a customer and an extended family. it was so strange, it was almost cute. but that immediately tells me that this flawless crew is family owned. but what is really etched in my mind, in the last moments of this culinary experience, was the hectic attempt of the owner. our waiter was not far behind the owner who ran into our car with my mobile phone charger base. it had fallen out of my handbag in our stand. I am so grateful to this gracious owner and my waiter that he gave it back to me before we get away. I would never have been able to complete my work projects, emails and text messages without my cell charger base. the demanding waiter skills of our waiter, combined with my saag accommodation and the desperate attempt by the owner to return my cell charger base, shows me that it is not by chance that this restaurant serves such fine quality meals. this is the first time that my man and I plan our next visit in a restaurant on the APPETIZER course! So, for a high quality north indian restaurant with excellent eating and excellent service, I recommend you to make their first stop in tandoori night!"

"I love Sitar. I love the food. I love the staff. But be warned: if you come in for lunch after 1, and your family is not done with lunch, they dont care. They will clear out the lunch (weekend) buffet by 2:15 and kick you out at 2:30 exactly. I've never been to any other restaurant that does this. This makes us need to pick a different venue if we cant get there by at least 12:30. Which issad, because I would rather go to Sitar."

"First off the service was great! I love how I was greeted when I walked in this cute little cozy spot. After placing my order I walked around the market and instantly wished I brought cash!!! So many cute items, fabrics, jewelry and trinkets! Now to the food. That damn Tandoori chicken is to die for!! I swear I could it everyday! I haven't had it in years and ohhh the memories I might need to go once a week to get my fix. They give you soooo much I ate off it all day. Now the Vindaloo (I choose Lamb as my protein of choice) I wanted to venture off and try something new... NOPE!! Lol. I think I asked for the wrong thing; I wanted the item above it it has a strong vinegar taste (which on the menu it clearly states) my fat ass just saw ginger and garlic and started drooling. Now because I paid $4 extra for lamb I picked the lamb out and ate it the spice level and flavor was PERFECT, minus the vinegar To sum it up... I have definitely found an Indian gem!! This is my new spot"
