"After ordering the tikka masala, butter chicken, garlic naan, and rice, I’ve completely lost faith in this restaurant. The masala took me back to third grade, resembling the sauce from a Lunchables pizza. I wish I hadn’t ordered the garlic naan at all; it was burnt and completely lacking in flavor and texture. The butter chicken was a disappointing yellow mush that left me feeling confused and unsatisfied. I had high hopes for the rice, but those hopes were dashed. It felt like they cooked each grain at a different time throughout the year, resulting in a dish that was both flavorless and inconsistent in temperature. Overall, my experience was underwhelming and sad."

I felt so miserable after eating there that I wanted to make myself sick just to get it all out.

The restaurant was extremely dirty, devoid of any service, and the prices were excessively high.

This is an excellent spot for budget-friendly Indian thali options. We tried the buffet, and every dish was authentically delicious, especially the eggplant curry. View menu

The lunch price was $18 per person, which included one canned soda. Four dishes were served, but there were about five other dishes that ran out and were not replenished during the 45 minutes I spent there.

So far I love this place!! My first experience trying Indian cuisine. I adore the tikka masala. The cheesy naan is great too!!! I've been in twice this past week. ? definitely give it a try! I gave 4 stars because I do have more to experience and customer service could be just a tad better. Only once I really talked to one of the guys behind the counter did I get a smile. View menu

This restaurant is extremely expensive, especially considering the portion sizes and when compared to other upscale venues. When I inquired about desserts, the owner jokingly responded that all they have is sugar. It was a rather unprofessional response. They advertise a wide variety of food and desserts but don't actually offer much at all. Today was my first and last visit to this establishment.

I had the Potato Samosa and the Cheese Naan. It cost 13 dollars. The Samosa filling was flavorful and the crust was crispy. But it tasted like they cooked it in old grease. 5/10. The Naan was good but it was flat and had a small amount of cheese. A good Naan should have lots of cheese and be very fluffy. 5/10 as well. The place was a little dirty. They didnt sell Chutney at all. Which is very odd for a Indian restaurant. They only had ketchup?
