"Went here for dinner on a Friday night and was seated right away. The owner, Sonny, came over and greeted us. He was kind and so welcoming. The decor is pretty and and cute for date nights. We ordered the mango shrimp appetizer, samosas, butter chicken a side of garlic naan. Mango lassi and ginger chai for drinks. I asked for brown sugar for my ginger chai which they didn't have but Sonny went out of his way to get them for me from another store. Exceptional service! Mango shrimp 9/10: shrimp was fresh and firm. Sauce was so good! Missing a bit of depth but honestly still really good and would reorder! Samosas 10/10: initially we ordered the chicken samosas but we were given the vegetarian ones but honestly it was so good that we didn't even mind it. Sonny came over and personally apologized for the mistake. The vegetarian samosas were served on a bed of chickpeas in a kind of sauce and it was *chefs kiss*. Definitely would recommend! Butter chicken 10/10: I've only had butter chicken twice and this is honestly the best. It's flavorful (not salty) and the chicken is so buttery (soft and juicy). Garlic naan 8/10: a bit too soft but was still really good and garlicky; I prefer my naan a bit more crisp. If you like naan on the softer side, it would be perfect for you. Nonetheless, it's still so good for dipping in the butter chicken. Overall, Sonny's kitchen is 5 and a 10/10 would highly recommend. The food is probably one of the best Indian food I've had and the service was unmatched. We already want to go back and try other dishes!!"

"Decided to try a new Indian restaurant tonight. I went to try Kohinoor in Orem. It was busy so that was a good sign. Since it was packed, I justed wanted to do a to go order. But my first red flag should have been what the waiter said. I asked for a type of naan and he said that was too hard of a dish for the chef to make. What?!?!? Then why is it on the menu. The next thing he said really bug me and he said, oh, the chef is too busy to make that. Seriously?!?!? But hey, I want to at least try something to review tonight so I didn 't want to venture too far from the familiar. I ordered the Kohinoor Mix Kabob. It was the biggest chunks of chicken not in a kabob style at all. The lamb you can see shriveled up on the left which looked like some sort of ground lamb sausage instead of a cubed piece of meat. The chicken tandoori and chicken tikka could have been cut in quarters from the pieces that I got. The shrimp was good and the chicken was a bit dry. The chicken tikka masala, well, I asked for very hot. Compared to India Palace 's spice level it would be a 5 or mild there. Also why was it so sweet? The chicken in this was completely dried out. The sauce helped a bit, but a chunk of dried chicken instantly kills the palette. I was very disappointed, but I don 't waste food, so I have some disappointing leftovers for tomorrow. Would I come back? Probably not, maybe I 'll give them 6-8 months to get things in order and hopefully the chef knows how to cook everything by then. The garlic naan is alright. Barely any garlic flavor to it at all. The rice they gave me enough to feed a few people. Good thing rice is my staple. At least they got the rice right. #thisishowichow @kohinoor_orem"
