I showed up and they were dreadfully understaffed. There were only a handful of tables with customers and they were all clearly upset and hungry. Used the restrooms, broken stalls and just in dire need of repair. Left before we were even asked our drink order, it was going to be a bad time regardless. I know the food was good, but something is falling apart.
Update 2025: no longer great deal, but still of quality. Smaller portions and higher prices. Vegan options now clearly marked! Still def recommend.
If you love a great deal on Indian food this place is omg đđbombđđ. The buffet is life.
soooooooo good!!
owner is very kind as well
This place is so dirty. The food is greasy not creamy.we had chicken tikka masala. the rice is hard and cold as though it has sat for a long time. The waitress ( the cooks granddaughter is extremely rude) we paid our bill of over 40.00 but ate nothing. Stay far away. The naan bread was not fluffy it was flat and also greasy tasting . Oh and they have a robot that brings the food to the table. You have to wait longer for the robot to get to you and the napkin that they place the food in is soiled.
In town and decided to try this place. Unfortunately, not for me.
I have had a lot of authentic Indian cuisine over the last 15 years, so I can understand that different families and regions make things slightly different. I also can appreciate that just because I donât like something, it doesnât mean others wonât love it. Most reviews are excellent, so that influenced me to go. Here are my takeaways:
The curry - first off, I had questions about the curry and was met with whom I can only assume is the owner with a not so pleasant experience. I asked first, if the chicken curry was bone in or not. Fair question. Then I asked if it was a red gravy curry. He looked at me and didnât say anything, so I felt the need to say âis the curry red or greenâ to which he answered âwhere have you ever had GREEN CURRY beforeâ.
Well I got the curry and it was like no curry Iâve ever had - the meat seemed to be very good quality white meat but there was no flavor. The gravy was also very weird in color and all I can describe it as is thin and coagulated.
The naan was like a cracker.
The somosas were very good.
Will not return, Iâd rather pay $6 for a frozen chef Bombay meal from the grocery store.
Delicious food and top notch service!
We love Bollywood. We had a large group and Deep was great to manage so many in our group and the rest of the restaurant. We will of course be back! Our kids love to watch the robots bringing and taking dishes.
First time trying Indian food and the staff here made it very easy for us! Hands down the best service youâll ever have in a restaurant. Food is super flavorful! Highly recommend
I was with a group. I never had Indian food before and I canât tolerate very spicy foods. I asked the owner if she could recommend a dish that wasnât too spicy and she starred at me and said â maybe we should get you some baby food â. My party wanted to leave but I knew they all loved Indian food so I told them to stay. That was my first and last time there.
Food was good⊠cleanliness was a bit under par. They had a robot deliver food to the table, and it was pretty dirty. Waiter had holes in his shirt etc⊠very nice people tho. If they cleaned up a bit, It would greatly benefit them!

Great Indian food. Love the upbeat Indian grooves as well. Excellent atmosphere for a nice dinner with your family, or date. They also have a really cool robot that brings out your food!!
We love the food here and they always take care of their customers. It's a little expensive but it is worth it.
This restaurant can do no wrong in my eyes. We always get there early when they open. The wait and kitchen staff are friendly and responsive.
Our second visit here and we enjoy it every time. We have also been to their La plata location and itâs just as good. The butter chicken is simply Devine. This time we also tried the grilled meat combo and although it was good, my husband was missing some sauce element so he ordered a side of butter chicken sauce for his white rice and that did the trick.
Not pictured is their garlic naan with cilantro which is so yummy.
But my favorite of everything is their vegetable samosas that includes potatoes. It comes with with a mint cilantro chutney and a sweet tamarind sauce that is out of this world!!! Highly highly recommend this place for sure!
As the only Indian restaurant in the area, it is a decent option. Always be wary of restaurants with long menu offerings, as the order may get mixed up. We ordered Yellow Daal but got something else.
