"Always absolutely delicious food from this tucked away little spot. We’ve been eating here for years. One of our top choice for Indian food in CR. Today I picked up a take out order. Their site used to have an asap pickup as 45 min out. They’ve change it to 30 min. Unfortunately, tonight it took the full 45 min for my food to be ready. But the order was accurate, very hot, and so tasty! My husband was soo very exited that they are now removing the tails from the shrimp in the tikki masala. While I was waiting to pick up my order I heard a man say he loved the naan and gave it 9/10. While taking his first bites of his meal, he actually bounced in his seat and said, “I love this so much!” I understand his sentiment! Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian dishes. Parking: Shared parking with other businesses. Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessed by wheelchairs."

The butter chicken and garlic naan were fantastic! The service was excellent and the atmosphere was great for a dinner meal. The price per person was $10-20. I highly recommend trying the garlic naan.

Very poor service We had ordered noodles for kids and multiple times asked them to make it mild however it was very spicy. Tandoori roti were not at all good. And the owner didn't do anything about. I highly recommend not to go to this restaurant They don't even know how to make curry veg chettinada was awful and madras chicken curry was disgusting. Meal type: Dinner

Definitely one of the best Indian restaurants I have ever dined in. High quality, very tasty food with a large variety. Good food for everyone. Service is also very quick, and servers are very nice. Atmosphere is very nice and lively. Spice level for every one. This restaurant makes me and my family want to come back every time. Rating: 10/10 Vegetarian options: Food for everyone veg and non-veg Service: Dine in

I would recommend Persis for a good meal. The Samosa Chaat is delicious, but the Biryani was not up to par. The Dosa was decent, however the service was slow both times I visited. It seems like the rice is fried with masala and fried paneer cubes are added. If you're in a hurry or really hungry, I would suggest trying another restaurant. Overall, it's a decent option for dinner, but be prepared to wait for your food. View menu

It was my first time, and I tried the lunch buffet. Tried it all. Delicious! There were tons of different meals to treat your taste buds. My understanding from an awesome friend is that it is true to the original dishes and from more than one region. They even had vegetarian alternatives for those who needed it. Loved the tea. Check their times before going, but you will definitely enjoy the atmosphere. Service: Dine in

The first thing I noticed about this place was they seemed understaffed, one person seemed to be doing everything, secondly the floors were completely dirty and the floor around the bar was sticky like it had never been cleaned, and it was early in the day, so it had clearly not been cleaned the night before, [if ever]. I can't imagine how dirty the kitchen is in this place. that's all I have to say about it. if you are ordering from home, choose a different place. just GROSS.or check it out for yourself, you will see what I mean.
