Is it possible for Indian Palace to offer masala chai or Irani chai? India Palace has a monopoly on Indian food since there are no competitors, and no one else sells masala or Irani chai; there's a lot of money to be made if India Palace sells great masala and Irani chai.

Firstly they were closed for dine in, so we had to takeout food. The prices were ridiculously expensive for the dishes. $5 for naan bread is crazy. The biryani had nuts and raisins in it which is weird for authentic Indian food. It was really bad and didn’t look or taste like biryani. The chicken tikka was sweet and the saag paneer was watery and bitter. The naan was ok. Over all 90 dollars.Had a bite and threw it all away, what a waste. Not worth a dime.Go to Des Moines if you’re wanting good Indian food.

Wouldn’t recommend eating here. It’s very overpriced and doesn’t taste that good. There are better options out there I promise you!

Lots of high quality food for a great price. Highly recommend for larger groups or for a meal to make you feel better when your sick. Although they have had to close dine in, and are not open as frequently, once they get enough customers it should be able to meet those demands. The spice level is also 1-10, meaning that people with no spice tolerance can still enjoy a great meal

I will give a new rating when we can ACTUALLY try it. They are not open for dine in and have no signage until you are in the building. Wasted money on parking meter only to find out we couldn't eat there. We live about 40 mins away so would have been cold by the time we got home. Maybe put some signage on the front door so people know.

We love this place. It's only open for takeout as of this date (Fall 2023), but we've never had a meal we didn't enjoy. Great samosa, mango lassi, veggie jalfrezi, and tikka masala!

Just got a mango lassi. It's more like mango juice. They tried their best to dilute the lassi. Seems like more water is added. Worst mango lassi I've ever tasted.

Quick and tasty! It was very easy to get the veganized alu gobhi, bengan bartha and Roti. My one complaint is that I asked for spicy and they asked me on a scale of 1-10 what I meant and I said 8…they still gave me very mild dishes probably around a 1-2 level of spice. I thought I would finally get some spicy Indian food but alas! Good sized portions. Updated from previous review on 2023-06-08

Delicious, fresh hot food! Very friendly customer service. 10/10. The chicken Marsala & butter chicken tasted amazing!

Unhappy with chicken biryani. It tastes like tawa pulao

Food is great! I just wish there were bigger portions for the price. I've ordered here a couple times and service is consistent

One of my favorites--until last week. Phone Order: Chicken Biryani and Channa Masala. Not two of the most difficult dishes. The Chicken Bir was tasteless. No spice or flavor. At $19, a disappointment. The Channa. Woof. A small, and I mean small, styro bowl of the sauce and potato. Separate container of rice. $17? Why? Not cool. Fool.

Had to wait longer an hour to get a simple rice dish. Over priced. Flavor and texture and food quality poor.
