5 stars all around!! Between my wife, daughter and myself we absolutely LOVE Yaar. The service is spot on with the wait staff always attentive. Beautiful atmosphere with an amazing painted mural. Finally the food is spot on with some of the best flavors of India. My go to is the Chicken Tikka Masala, vegetal samosa & garlic naan. Today we experience the Weekend Buffet special, so we had a chance to take the opportunity to try some of everything. I recommend you take the opportunity...

Best Indian food we’ve had in Astoria! We came for dinner and got the samosa trio (all three were delicious), lamb joshrogan, and chicken korma. We recommend all. The staff was super friendly and very welcoming to our messy child. And the prices are great!

Went here for the lunch buffet and it did not disappoint. The buffet had salad, a variety of entrees, vegetarian and meat dishes. There was rice and some huge samosas. Plus even a rice pudding for dessert. They bring naan to your table as well. Their is tamarind and chutneys for topping.One of the best Indian buffets I've ate at. The okra was delicious and I loved the chana masala. For partaking in the buffet we still were attended to well and our water was often refilled.
