Buffet was the best!! Lots of vegetarian and vegan options with just a few chicken dishes today. The fried bread with chickpeas is an awesome treat if you eat gluten. Chai was sweet and classic. Nothing special about the service or atmosphere, this is all about the food.Vegetarian options: More vegetarians and vegan dishes in the buffet than anywhere else I’ve been.

I want to first start off by saying I absolutely love their vegetarian dishes. I ordered chicken pakora for the first time and I was very, very disappointed. It was very dry and tough and that only means one thing, it was from left overs from a day or two ago. Freshly cooked chicken will not be dry, tough and not chewable .All they did was reheat it so I was very disappointed. I don’t know if I should let them know or not but I thought putting a review would help them, so that they don’t reheat food that they don’t use up the day they make it.

We went for a lunch buffet and lettuce had turned brown and was barely anything left and they refused to add anymore lettuce. Then 20 minutes before closing we couldn’t get rice pudding because “they are closing”. My check and the card reader were both on my table before we had finished eating and the waitress said they were closing about 4 times. I still tipped and I still got an attitude.

Waited over 45 minutes past the posted pickup time for my order. Waiter said it would be a 10 minute wait… 10 minutes later he says a fifteen minutes. Not helpful at all.

Amazing food. The buffet has veggie, vegan, and meat options. Not too spicy for the timid, just great flavor with the perfect amount of heat!Plus they're open for buffet lunch again after COVID closure!

Got rejected to dine in at 7.20 PM even though the poster on their door says they are open until 8.30 PM and on the website they claim that they are open until 9 PM. People were finishing food when we were waiting so it wasn't an issue of seating, they just LIE about their times of operation.

The place is clean, and the service is decent. However, I was disappointed with the food. The Dal Makhni was more like a basic Dal Tadka with no butter, which was misleading. The garlic naan was below average, and the mango lassi tasted artificial. The Chicken Tikka Masala was okay, but it didn't stand out. Overall, it was a very below average dining experience.

Worst service I have ever experienced. Got my food after waiting for almost an hour. Food quality and taste was pretty mediocre and not at all worth the wait.
