Employees were very attentive and helpful to us as first time customers. Food was hot and delicious and authentic. Family-friendly. I hope to go back and possibly even experience their weekend buffet so we could try small portions of different foods.

Went here a fews months ago actually been twice and food was good but while we were there the owners and staff treated us like we didn't belong there . We waited a while for service then was constantly stared at. But spite the uncomfortably I want to take my whole family there for Christmas over 20 people ! so I reached out several times with no avail until about 2 weeks before Christmas when they finally responded and said they will have more details soon . Well nothin at all even after I reached out a couple more times ! They didn't let anyone know unitill Christmas eve on social media. I don't believe I was the authenticity for them ! If you look at the videos they posted !

Incredible buffet experience!

My husband and I stopped in for the lunch buffet today, and it was absolutely excellent. Even though we arrived close to the end of the buffet hours, the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive—we didn't feel rushed at all, which we really appreciated.

The food was outstanding. Every dish was spiced perfectly—full of flavor without being overwhelmingly hot. Some of our favorites included the chicken pakora, crispy baby corn, paneer butter masala, and the goat curry, which was cooked beautifully.

We made sure to leave room for dessert and I'm so glad we did. The carrot halwa, rice kheer, and tres leches were all delicious sweet treats to end the meal. We also loved the mango lassi and the Irani chai.

Between the high-quality food and the friendly service, this is easily a new favorite for us. We will definitely be back!

First time viaiting this place. The food tasted much better than the usual restaurants that we used to visit. The buffet has got huge spread. Plenty of options for both veggies and meat eaters. Would recommend this place at any time.

Great buffet! Huge selection and they don’t skimp on things like Paneer.

Fantastic place to go if you like variety! I thought it was great here. I would definitely go again. $22 for unlimited buffet (which we thought was a bit expensive at first but they literally have SOOO many options)
I liked almost everything (some things I was not a fan of but that’s the point of a buffet! It’s still fun to try it) I had one bite of everything and went back up for seconds of everything I liked
They have some rose milk (super sweet strawberry milk drink) and some fun hot sweet tea included ; I had mine like a dessert and really liked it (too sweet as a starter though)
They have paneer served all different ways; plenty of decent options if you’re a vegetarian (the fried paneer starter one I did not like at all; I think it doesn’t save well at a buffet style serving option, I was glad I only tried two tiny pieces - but the rest of the paneer was super good in the other dishes!)
We asked if we could order one buffet to go and they offer a good amount of containers to take to go (obviously for the price of another dine in - $22) shown in my attached photos

Kinnera special chicken curry was very good!

Tried Kinnera for the first time tonight and it was overall fine. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated. Pretty standard for an Indian restaurant but nothing to be amazed over. There was a larger party that came for the last part of our meal who were on the louder side and let their children run around the restaurant. While not Kinnera’s fault it did lead to a lease than pleasant meal.

For dinner we had the mango lassi, onion pakora, chicken korma, and paneer masala. I always appreciate when restaurants bring out papadums and chutneys as well which Kinnera did.

However, I wasn’t a huge fan of the pakora. I didn’t get a lot of onion flavor in them and found the dish to be very dry. A sauce would have been a welcome addition. My chicken in the korma was cooked very well as it was nice and tender. For $16 the portions were huge and the meal comes with plenty of rice. I wasn’t as impressed with my korma sauce though as I’m used to a creamier base. My significant other said there wasn’t a lot of paneer in his masala either.

Our service was standard but pleasant. The waiters didn’t come over as we were eating and took a while to ask if we wanted the bill. However, they were prompt once we said we were ready for the check. I love Indian food and have had it around the world but I am glad this place is up and running. One day I’d like to try the lunch buffet.

After visiting numerous Indian restaurants across Massachusetts and Rhode Island, we discovered this absolute gem. If you’re looking for authentic South Indian cuisine, this is truly the best place to experience it.
