5th Element India Kitchen

This hidden gem should be given a try by all.
Indian food is some authentic, delicious, spicy food that is underrated. People need to give it a try. My easy to eat favorites Butter chicken, Murgh tikka (chicken marinated), all of their Naan breads, and all of their rices are delicious.
I prefer food cooked to order from the kitchen rather than their buffet.
Also try their Mango lassi yogurt drink.

Food tasted great, staff was super friendly and accommodating. I wish they had more options for kid’s meals. My son loves Indian food. The mango lassi was so so so good and the mango ice cream at the end was the perfect end to the meal. Highly recommend you give this place a chance! We didn’t get the buffet, we ordered off the menu. Super affordable as well, I was pleasantly surprised

Food was very authentic with fresh spices, great service, and beautiful interior with colorful paintings! Definitely will visit again soon!

Awesome food and service will be back again

Awesome food and great service.

Food and staff are amazing! Feel like family here, and the mango ice cream is lovely!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This place is a hidden gem! Every single time I come here, the food is absolute 🔥—rich flavors, perfect spice levels, and always served fresh. You can taste the love in every bite. The butter chicken? Next level. The naan? Fluffy perfection. Even the rice had me feeling some kind of way.

But let’s talk service—top notch. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel like family. Attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without being pushy, and always serving with a smile. The kind of hospitality that keeps you coming back.

If you haven’t tried this spot yet, stop sleeping on it.
This isn’t just a meal—it’s an experience.
🔥🔥🔥 HIGHLY recommend.

Best Indian food restaurant in Daytona Beach. Love going everyday for buffet lunch. Very good service by the staff members Francis, Verma sir and all of them. They have the best options for both veg and non veg cuisine. Must try.

It's a decent place, the restaurant is kept relatively clean. Though the buffet area seems a bit untidy with the dirty dishes just right next to it. I had the lunch buffet which was 14.99. The food is meh and some of them were like room temp. the naan bread felt like its been there for hours and is just cold. I can't really tell if the flavor is authentic Indian but it tasted fine.
I wouldn't really recommend this place but hey at least it's cheap.

This is the best Indian food in the area for sure. I go here all the time. I just can't get enough of it. All in all, this is a solid 5/5 restaurant.
If you don't know much about Indian food, just order the Chicken Tikka Masala, or Paneer Tikka Masala if you prefer no meat. They are both SO good. The chicken is perfectly cooked, and the sauce is delicious. Pair that with some Butter or Garlic Naan and you have yourself an excellent meal. And their mango soft serve at the end of the meal is ridiculously good.
