Melt in my mouth curry, baby samosas to die for, warm and flakey, soul-nourishing naan. The naan was so fluffy and airy, and the mango lassi was sweet, creamy, and refreshing. An all-round fantastic experience for the senses and for very reasonable price. Absolute W restaurant, banger dishes only. 10/10

Our favorite Indian restaurant. We go all the time. It gets better every time we go. Tried the buffet this time- really amazing! The only thing is all of Buffet foods are mild- would like if there was at least one spicy option.

Wonderful food and friendly staff every time I visit! I'm a lamb korma head and it never disappoints here! It was the first place I went after moving back to the neighborhood and it was just as good as I had remembered.

I came for the weekend buffet. The food was all very good, with a nice mix for people wanting to be more adventurous, and those looking to start with the new classics like chicken tikka masala. The naan was so soft and fluffy, I couldn't believe it. The gulab jamun was the perfect amount of sweet to end the meal. Prices are great for the buffet, and the staff was attentive and professional. I can't say enough good things, other than I'm glad I live within walking distance!

I tried this place because I found out my trusty spot, Punjab Palace, had a bad roach infestation for years. The food here is similar and most tastes good. Unfortunately, I went inside and the cleanliness was questionable. It smelled like a bathroom in there and I saw some takeout containers kept where they shouldn't have been. The first time I tried this restaurant I had it delivered but the second time is when I went inside. I had a really big order and checked it when I got to the car. There was an item from my order missing and when I went inside, the guy sitting in the dining room on a computer spoke another language to the guy who I told about my missing item. It appeared as though her thought I was lying. They were NOT polite, nor apologetic.That, in a addition to the other issues mentioned means I will have to continue my search for a good Indian restaurant.
*It's also worth noting that some of their prices on their preferred website for you to order (from them directly) are higher than if you order from a delivery service. Meaning. You can order say a chicken curry meal from Uber Eats, for pickup, for $12..instead of $15 or $16 directly from their website.
