Awesome food! Ambience is also very good. We tried thali and it was good and even their lamb curry was very good and meat was very soft. There mocktails are also very good.
If you want to try authentic indian biriyani, don’t order it here!
This is by far our favorite Indian restaurant in the triangle area. Great vegetarian menu. Prices are in line with the food and service quality. Highly recommended.
Note: Parking can be a challenge here, but that's not the restaurant's fault.
Best Indian food I have ever had! No other restaurant compares. The service is exceptional as well. I wish I lived closer so I could come more often.
Went to Nazara yesterday for dinner, horrible experience! This is the Only restaurant, which doesn’t show rates for the drinks and then they charge exorbitant money in the bill. Our bill for 3 drinks was $120 and 2 bourbon was $70. So almost $40 per peg of Indian whisky, it’s a loot! Looks like, management doesn’t realize that there are so many better indian restaurants in the area. Though food, ambience is ok, I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone.
Last night we dined at Nazara for a Mother's Day/early birthday dinner. The hostess was extremely friendly and quickly led us to a table. We ordered a mocktail (I believe it was the lychee ginger) and an old fashioned. I originally ordered a different mocktail but the server thankfully warned me it wasn't sweet and helped me pick a different one. It was delicious!
For food we got the samosas, naan, chicken tikka marsala, and my husband picked a dish with goat. Everything was absolutely delicious but we filled up quickly. Thankfully that just meant we had plenty of leftovers!
On our way out, we were gifted a choice of multiple spices. We picked a jar of garam masala and are very excited to try cooking with it.
It is very obvious the people here are excited for you to dine with them and to experience their wonderful food. We will absolutely be back!
The food was pretty good overall but they were skimpy on the proteins. My main complaint is the bourbon flight. On their menu, they have an option to build your own flight of 3, 1oz pours. I chose Weller cypb, baker 13, pappy 12. The staff was nice but didn’t know prices and they are not listed. I proceeded to purchase anyway. The cost of the flight was 145. When I asked, they initially said 1.5 oz pour for pappy was 95 making it 63 for 1oz. Then they claimed 1oz was 95. It’s certainly my fault for not checking prior to ordering, but they way overcharged for their pappy and shady on their price change. 1.5 oz of pappy 12 for 142.5 is ridiculous.
Ordered roti and was hoping to get phrata but got a piece of naan instead.
Goat briyani has a good spice level.
Masala chai has more milk than it should.
Also ordered a mango lassi but we did not receive it. We forgotten about it and have paid for it too. Only remembered the missing order upon reaching home and checking the receipt.
Good atmosphere and server was helpful to explain on using the yogurt served to reduce the spice level.

We had the chicken hariyali lazzatdar, chicken tikka masala, and assorted breads. Chicken hariyali lazzatdar was really good. Naan was soft at first but got hard quickly. Tikka masala had too much of a tomato taste. Would revisit.
I’ve placed a delivery order for paneer tikka masala and kulcha. Kulcha was hot and soft. Worst paneer tikka masala I’ve ever eaten. It was cold, messy, paneer was not cooked properly, extremely disappointed.

The hostess who sat us was so very kind and helpful. We had a person in our party that had never eaten Indian food, and she patiently walked them through options. Food quality was excellent, and we found it to be tasty as well! Ranged in spice levels, so be sure to request the level of spice you'd like. We'll be going back!

Ordered a takeout for Chicken Biryani and Chicken 65. The ambience inside the restaurant is great and service was good and awesome people but the food was pathetic.
It was almost as if the Cook was off duty and someone else with no culinary skills prepared the food. Forget authentic- not even remotely a restaurant quality food. In the name of Biryani - they seem to have mixed up some rice and chicken. Very disappointed with the food preparation.

This is the best Indian food I’ve had, way better than anything we have in the Washington DC area. The archari goat, vegetable korma, and saag are absolutely phenomenal. Only downside is that it’s priced accordingly.
