“Person serving young man and lady at cash register are very rude and heavy attitude. Food is acceptable. They also weigh wrong and always add weight of the box which is not right. Be careful of always being overcharged by the lady at cash register. Always an attitude especially if you are an Indian.“

“The food was exceptional. A little pricey, but completely worth it. Nothing you can make at home and very authentic! The people were also super nice and the atmosphere is super comforting. Walked in on a cold day and was hit with the delicious spices and smells. 100% recommended“

“I have been missing samosas, biriyani and dal mahkani since I was in Owings Mills, MD. I am a veggie samosa regular, so I decided to go during lunch hours. I was very pleasantly surprised with the portion AND price. Lovepreet was so kind and broke down everything for me so I could know what to expect. As I saw, my chicken biryani sans nuts and raisins was AMAZING. The chicken was a tiny bit dry...but still tasty. She explained the different ways I could have it prepared. The dal makhani was my FAVORITE. FLAVORFUL, FLAVORFUL, FLAVORFUL. I mixed with with my biriyani, had half a samosa (they are huge but you get 2) and will be back to dine in. I love supporting my Desi brothers and sisters and I live nice and close.“

“I’ve only ever gotten take out here but the food is fantastic. The Lamb Tikka Marsala, Butter Chicken, and Paneer Naan are great. We usually get 2 orders of different naan and two main dishes for around 50$ but it’s a lot of food. I highly recommend this place.“

“Got takeout from Jot India and ordered the chicken biryani, saag paneer, and garlic naan. Everything was well made and flavorful, and the spice level was just right. Portions were solid, and I really appreciated that they included extra sauce with the biryani — nice touch. Will definitely be ordering again.“

“It’s been a few years since I’ve been able to have Indian food and man am I glad I chose this place. The food was absolutely perfect. Both fresh and delicious. The restaurant itself is very clean, and the service was warm and always with a smile.“
“I recently visited Daawat, and it was honestly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. The moment I walked in, the place felt warm and welcoming. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal.
The food was absolutely amazing — full of authentic flavor, fresh, and served hot. Every dish tasted like it was made with care. The portions were generous, and the presentation was on point. I especially loved how balanced the spices were; nothing felt too heavy, just rich and delicious.
Overall, Daawat is a perfect spot for anyone who wants great food, great service, and a comfortable atmosphere. Definitely going back, and highly recommend it to everyone! 🍽️✨“

“Amma’s Kitchen was wonderful. I was so homesick for some home made South Indian food and this place made me feel like I was back home. I loved the atmosphere, the selection of food, and the service very much. The taste was awesome and you can easily tell that Amma’s Kitchen really cares about their customers by the way that the food is fresh and tasty. I will definitely be visiting again. Thank you for a great Sunday! 🥰🥰“

“Really great Indian food. Some of the best Nan in the city and their rolls are a cool western take on Indian food but keeping true to the flavors. My only advice would be to replace the chips as a side. It's weird with Indian food. A single piece of Nan or a Samosa maybe but chips is odd. Or drop the side all together and I didnt expect anything more than the roll I ordered and the chips were a negative not a plus so cut them. This is critique of a place I love though so if the worst thing they do is give me a side of potato chips when I order a roll I'm still very happy.“

“Been coming here for years and stop by everytime I’m in the city. Wait times are not long and is in an accessible location. The best indian food I’ve ever tried and can’t even replicate it at home. The Paneer Makhani is so full of flavor, creamy, and silky. It’s perfectly balanced and not too overpowering. Perfect bit of savory and spiciness with amazing aromatics. Its a must. The rice is very fluffy with amazing flavor. Never knew plain rice could be so tasty. The garlic naan is amazing quality and a great edition for its price. Comes free during lunch. Best indian food in the country.“

“I keep trying different places around Cincinnati but I have failed to find another as good as Ambar. I just tried another restaurant tonight and once again, while it was very good, Ambar is better. Not sure what’s up with some of the very negative reviews, I guess the Indian restaurant biz is very competitive ;)“

“The restaurant has a posh feel, very friendly staff and the food was outstanding!! I have been looking for a korma dish that is reminiscent to what I had in England and this is the only place I found in the dayton/cincinnati are that has the flavor. We also had curry and vindaloo, all were delicious and I think I have found my new happy place.“

“This place is Absolutely amazing experience! I ordered the Karapodi Gobi, Plain Dosa, and Haleem, and every single dish was incredible. The flavors were authentic, rich, and perfectly balanced. The Karapodi Gobi had the perfect spice, the Plain Dosa was fresh and beautifully made, and the Haleem was so flavorful and comforting that I even took some home to enjoy the next day to work!
What really stood out was the hospitality. Since I wasn’t familiar with some of the menu items, the staff kindly walked me through the menu, explained the dishes, and helped me choose. They were patient, welcoming, and made me feel comfortable. That level of service made the experience even better.
The environment was clean, comfortable, and had a great atmosphere. This is easily a 5-star restaurant, if not more. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious Indian food and amazing service!“

“My fiancée and I decided to stop in here on a whim for lunch, and wow are we glad we did. We just found our new favorite spot for Indian food in town. The food was excellent (we both got the buffet), the dining room was clean and had nice decor, and the staff was so kind to us and our one-year-old daughter. I also overheard when another patron came in who was trying Indian food for the first time, and the staff took the time to describe the different items on the buffet for her and provide recommendations, which just struck me as really great customer service. The prices were extremely reasonable too. Overall we had a wonderful experience and can’t wait to come back!“

“Have been going here few times every year - food was always pretty good and the price was not over the top... I like they combined the Thai and Indian restaurants together and you can now mix both cuisines from the same table (seating was just 4-5 small tables at Ravis before). And glad the food is equally good no matter which cuisine. You can sit anywhere you want but recommend the Thai side to the right which seems to be more upscale although it's the same waiting staff who btw were pretty quick (after they combined, went once for a weekday lunch and recently for a weekday dinner).
Noting that there are a LOT more tables between the two places now (30?)- so I can see how they could get overloaded during peak times unless they have more than 2 waiters? And they are good folks - don't expect it to be like a corporate run place.“

“1st time visiting Namaste and it was a good experience. The employee went over the menu with me telling me about items and suggesting a favorite. She let me choose spice level. I like spicy so I chose medium. Whoo hooo. So hot. LOL. But still enjoyable. While I waited I browsed the unique items in the store. My favorite thing, I ordered to go and when I got home I found the entree was plastic wrapped to prevent to sauce from leaking in case it got turned over (which has happened at other restaurants). Great service. Check them out.“

“This is an Indian restaurant in downtown Cincinnati near UC. It kind of focuses on like Indian street food as opposed to some of the fancier ones with the big menus and fancier dishes. There was a lot of good here as the restaurant looked very nice and the staff did a mostly good job (it took a while for them to cook the food but unless it's ridiculously long I don't complain about that and won't here either.) I went with my favourite Indian which is Lamb Vindaloo which is chunks of lamb (or whatever other meat you prefer) with a tomato based sauce with lot's of spices. I got mine a 4 out of spicy instead of my normal 5 because I had never been to this restaurant and didn't know how much they would spice it. I could have definitely gotten the 5 as the 4 wasn't all that spicy. It had some pretty good flavour and the lamb was cooked perfectly and was in pretty good sized pieces. Their naan was quite good as well which is vitally important at an Indian restaurant to soak up all of those sauces. I probably should have tried their street food which is their specialty but there will be a day for that. What I had was good but not great Indian food. When I come back and try the street food dishes I will reevaluate. I'd rate this about 6.5 out of 10.“
