It’s located in the corner besides Paris baguette. It’s small space with few tables.The service was good but the food tastes okay .Manchurian inside part not cooked properly.Palak paneer and Navarathna kurma has too much butter tastes too buttery.I couldn’t get chance to try non - veg options.Deserts were good. But gulab jamun tastes too sweet.

It's a reasonable lunch for the price. It's a cute buffet and although it doesn't have a lot of variety, the food is delicious. The naan was so delicious. You can park right in front and to the side without any problems. Lunch is from 11:00am to 2:30pm and costs $17.95. There is only one outdoor magnet... If the weather is warm, the shade of the trees is a good place^^

Went for lunch with a friend and sat outside. The waiters were really accommodating by setting up the table outside for two. We had our little dog, and it was a way to satisfy the need for masala dosa and enjoy the sunny day. Ended the meal with wonderful coffee.

Best Buffet I had in America hands down. Every dish I tried was absolutely spot on. This place is halal, but I would still recommend it for vegetarians. Nauratri ki Sabzi was my favorite. Price is decent considering the area. Hopefully coming back again and again.

We’re here for Lunch Buffet on Friday.Both veg & non-veg availableYummy
The food is better than most indian places in Irvine.I like the palak paneer, the spicy is SPICY.The naan and tandoori rotis were a disappointment, the rotis were bone dry and hence three stars.Overall good food and good flavors.

Went for the weekend lunch buffet. Some of the dishes were good and others okay but none were bad. Service is good and the rest rooms are clean. Parking is not a problem as it is in a strip mall. For the price point the lunch buffet is a good value.
Vegetarian options: Annapoorna has a huge variety of cuisines, aka North Indian, South Indian. They also have a great choice if Jain paneer subji.I highly recommend this restaurant.

We decided to celebrate my friend’s Big birthday here. One of the six guests had never been to an Indian restaurant. I have to tell you that the food was excellent. The curry dishes were on par with any of the top eating establishments anywhere. We had to fight for our share of the goat dish since it was so delicious. My friend who was experiencing Indian food for the first time was in heaven as he is a vegetarian. Service here has always been very attentive and polite. The best part which is rare these days was when the bill arrived. Very fare prices here whereas I feel many restaurants are gouging us nowadays in the name of rising prices and inflation. My hats off to Annapoorna and its management. Highly recommend them.
