"What a lovely dinner from the beet salad, chicken satay and crispy pork ribs. The ribs were a bit fatty, but you could get a fair amount of meat from each rib. They were very tasty and seared to perfection, a tiny bit spicy but excellent flavor. The chicken satay was extremely tender and so flavorful with extra sauce to dredge your chicken into. The beet salad was small, but quite yummy. The atmosphere is classy but comfortable. The service was good and sometimes slow, but it was getting quite busy while we were there."

"This location is a hidden treasure. It has a very upscale feel to it while the location is set in a mall. The food is pretty good and the staff is very friendly. There is a great window view if you sit by it and it's nice and quiet. We only ran into one issue which was the cooks fault and not anyone else's. My wife ordered a sandwich without avocado because she is allergic. When the order came our server noticed that it had avocado on it as he set it down. He quickly apologized and took it back. The cooks in the back just wiped it off the sand which and sent it back out. When we received it there was still smeared avocado on the sandwich where the cooks knife didn't get it off. I asked for them to remake it because it still had the avocado on it lol. Other than the lazy cook the location and staff was great"

"We came to India Palace Plymouth for their lunch buffet it's a gem! As soon as we entered, our group of four was stunned by the ambience which features a beautiful and clean interior adorned with classical Indian paintings. Coupled with the food, our visit felt like a journey through the flavors and aromas of India.Foodwise, the star of the show is the dry beef, which is hard to come by at Indian restaurants. The beef is marinated in a rich blend of spices and cooked with precision, leading to a melt in your mouth experience which is hard to come by. The Tandoori chicken hit the spot. It's not too spicy and was piping hot. I loved how the roasted onions that garnish the chicken provided a boost of umami flavor. samosa appetizers were also outstandingThe naan bread is a testament to the culinary prowess of their chefs. The variety is impressive, ranging from the classic Garlic Naan, rich and aromatic, to the decadent Peshawari Naan, stuffed with nuts and raisins, offering a delightful contrast of flavors and textures. Each naan is baked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior that complements the entrees perfectly.Also inspiring are the condiments. Each condiment, from the tangy mint chutney to the sweet and spicy mango pickle, is crafted to enhance the flavors of the dishes, adding layers of complexity and depth that elevate the dining experience to new heights.Service at India Palace is nothing short of excellent. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that every guest feels welcome, providing recommendations and insights into the menu that enhance your meal. Their attention to detail and genuine care for the dining experience make a significant difference, contributing to an atmosphere that is warm and inviting."

"Food: 4/5; Service: 5/5; Ambience: 3/5; Overall: 4/5. Summary: Upscale suburban bar/restaurant. American fare. Food was just OK, especially considering the price. Our server (Patrick) was attentive, polite and accommodating. The venue was uncomfortably loud, in my opinion. My wife and I visited this upscale venue on a Wednesday evening about 7. To our surprise the place was completely packed. We’d made a reservation, and they seated us on time. My wife ordered the ribeye, which was overcooked. They prepared another steak which was better, and allowed us to keep the first one, which our dogs appreciated. I had the ciopinno, which was a mixed bag. The seafood was fine, but the sauce had an unusual, sort of funky flavor that I did not like. I like to order a Manhattan when the venue has a signature recipe. They do, and I did, and it was really pretty good. Recommended. This is our second visit to BLVD. The first was more positive, and this one wasn’t terrible, so we’ll likely try again at some point."

"eating was great, but it would have been nice if alcohol is served again and if it somehow provided the buffet again. the atmosphere was clean and ely dead. there was a low lighting because there was no lighter, just on sunlight. more lighting would have been nice and if there was music because there was no music. music played in indies would have been cool. our waitress was nice and knew the menu well. the staff, including our waitress, stayed in the kitchen mostly back. so it was quiet except me and my friend. we had to go back to the kitchen and knock on the door to get the attention of our waitress to order more food from the menu. then she was attentive again. we gave her a nice tip. there was not another customer for the whole time we were there. they just get for the delivery, I think in the recipe. we were there from 5:15 o'clock (they are open at 17 o'clock) until we at 7/7:30 o'clock on a Friday night (5/27/22.) my friend was back in many Indian restaurants in California and she shared that one of the best parts she loved about these restaurants was that the naun brot was free, which would probably bring more customers. I really hope that this restaurant makes it because eating was honest really good! loved the plant sauce with vegetable samosa (kartoffel and harvested stuffed triangular bake), the chicken curry (it had a yellowish/orange medium seasoned curry sauce after mine), and the garlic naun brot! one last thing if they had filtered water that would have been much better than the water they served us. wayzata is known that there is not the cleanest water in the opposite."
