The best Indian food I have ever tasted. I would certainly remember this place when I think of Indian food, but it sad that I live in another country.

Solid food, gorgeous ambience.

Came for a late dinner on a Wednesday evening and this place was packed! We were seated within 5 minutes of arriving at 8pm.

To start, we ordered the watermelon salad to share. The presntation was gorgeous and colorful, was a refreshing appetizer to get us started.

For beverages, I had a pour of the fieldworks Belgian and my friend had a mango lassi. Both beverages were served in bespoke glassware and were delicious.

For mains, we ordered the butter chicken and lamb curry (both medium spicy) to share, with a side of naan and two sides of rice. The butter chicken was rich and creamy, while the curry lamb had a nice balance of flavor and heat. Both were enhanced by the side of garlic naan.

Overall, a solid meal and nice ambience.

I actually grabbed a couple take out lassi’s which were delicious however, hope to get back there as the place looks very inviting and dishes I observed others eating when I went in for pick up looked scrumptious

We ordered for pickup without knowing. There was an issue with the order but the restaurant called us and fixed the order. We are really happy with the service and will try the dine in location next.

Noor is an absolute gem. The food is consistently exceptional - fresh, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. We’ve tried nearly everything on the menu (samosas, paneer rolls, chana, butter chicken, lamb rogan josh, paneer tikka masala, and more), and every dish has been a hit. We’ve gone back several times, and it’s been a guaranteed success every single visit.

Recently, we hosted a Diwali party for 30 people and asked Noor to cater..with only six days’ notice. Nity, the owner, personally called to plan the menu. She was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating, offering thoughtful suggestions and adjustments without hesitation. Her quote was also refreshingly reasonable, and the entire process was seamless, truly one of the easiest party experiences I’ve had.

The food was the star of the evening, everyone raved about it. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a more reliable restaurant to partner with. Noor has earned a permanent spot on my go-to list, and I’ve already recommended them to others in our community (who’ve loved them just as much). We order from them regularly, and after this catering experience, I’m officially a lifelong fan.

This place had such good reviews but our experience was so different . If you like authentic Indian food this is not for u. There was no flavor, naans were burnt. Service was bad too. There were only 2 people working manning all the tables. They did not serve the water, never checked on us if we needed anything else. Will not be going back. I rarely write reviews

The food at Noor Indian Fusion Kitchen was flavorful, but the overall experience was disappointing. There was incense burning inside the restaurant, and the strong scent made our eyes water and it was hard to sit comfortably.

During our visit, my elderly mother, who has a bladder condition, had an accident at the table. Instead of responding with kindness or understanding, the staff were rude and made the situation worse. The owner wasn’t very compassionate either — she first said the cleaning fee would be $150, then reduced it to $100 to replace the chair.

While we paid and moved on, the lack of empathy and professionalism from both the staff and management overshadowed the good food.

We had a selection of different curries as takeout and all the flavors were amazing. I’d definitely order from Noor again. Only negative was the order took 30 mins longer than the stated time. The original ETA was an hour, which was a bit longer than we wanted, but we went with it anyway, but it ended up being 90 minutes! So I docked a star. Luckily the food was delicious!

butter chicken was very good, lamb was so-so, we had strong stomach aches afterwards though, so take it as a precaution. staff a bit confused with orders sometimes and splitting receipts.
