Best in the Blythewood/Northeast Columbia area. I've tend to see the issue of parking with other restaurants. Not here. Been everywhere even the new one, happened to forget the name. But the food here just has the consistency and hits every single time.

First time coming and I was very impressed. I was seated immediately and the service was excellent. I enjoyed the garlic naan. I tried Samosa Chaat and loved it. It smelled so good and was incredibly flavorful. Then I had the Goat Biryani. Again, it smelled so good and tasted delicious. By recommendation, I paired the meal with a good beer.All around a great experience and I’ll be back!

We recently moved from SoCal and have been looking for an authentic Indian cousins. We found Indian Village ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Korma, the quality and taste of both dishes were very good at reasonable prices.

I ordered a Goat Biriyani and a Goat Curry from Village of India the last time I ordered from here on UberEats. I have also had numerous other dishes from here. While I will not say that this is the best Indian restaurant in Columbia I will say that the food is a hit or miss and it’s just okay. I find their chicken pieces are a bit dry but most of all the sauces I would say are decent except for the Goat Curry I found it to lack complex flavors and it in turn just tasted oily and spicy. The meat in the Goat Curry and Goat Biriyani also tasted as if my order was confused for Lamb, it tasted exactly like lamb and I’m not a huge fan of lamb as it tastes extremely gamey. The Goat Biriyani also didn’t leave much to be desired as the rice also lacked complex flavors that Biriyani usually has. There were no additional toppings such as onion, herbs and spices. I was truly disappointed. The presentation was also lackluster. I will say the one dish I truly enjoyed from here are their Samosas they are wonderful.

We went for a lunch buffet over several Facebook and WhatsApp advertisements. We were completely disappointed with the food's taste and texture. The vegetable biryani was completely dry and utterly tasteless. I could taste the raw smell of turmeric and red chili powder. It wasn’t cooked. It looks like it was just mixed half-cooked hoping the remaining half would cook in the buffet tray. Instead, it was dry rice.Amongst all veggie curries, the chole curry was good and the rest were not great to mention. The naan and poori were ok.In the desert section, Gulab jamun was over-sweet and rubbery. When I walked in, other fellow diners cautioned me about the horrible food taste and asked me to try it elsewhere. However, I still dined it because it was late in the afternoon and the kids were hungry and I regret the decision. I will not go to this place again. I hope they take it on a positive note. Unless they work on their dishes, I doubt staying in business for a long time.1. Response to the owner: There was no waiter. It was the lady at the counter, taking away the dishes from the table. You may presume me for someone else who said, “Very good food”. I called the lady and informed her that the rice was undercooked and so dry. She did try and said, it was dry because of the heat under the buffet tray. Later she asked me to try the biryani once the tray was refiled and it was the same. You should ask her about that. Yes, I did inquire about the 15% discount you posted on a WhatsApp group, and when you showed your post about discontinuing the discount, I paid the full price of the buffet. The lady at the counter said $15 for an adult buffet and asked if we wanted to pay by cash or card. When I said ‘card’, she calculated the final price using her calculator and charged me $15.99 and never informed me about it. I understand that you are defending the food you cook, and I would do the same. When I wrote well about chole (chana masala), naan, and poori why not the other dishes? For a moment, try to reason for the fair comments from the customers and understand the reality.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian dishes could have been prepared with more taste and flavor.
