The staff always has a smile and are always so friendly. Whether I dine in or dash out, everything is always superb! They always cater to my allergy needs and to my daughter’s extra boba! A frequent favorite for us!

I have eaten Indian food all my life in 3 different countries and am not particularly fussy. I have given this place multiple chances and tried multiple different things. The food here is terrible, I have to be truthful. Incredibly salty, not a single one of the dishes tasted anything like they should, samosas were mushy, fish was somehow crunchy, meat overdone and not fresh. Last time I tried it, I got a red Thai curry. I went to the bathroom after suddenly feeling ill. I typically have a stomach of iron. I had to go out to my car where I violently threw up. One of the worst experiences of my life. I rarely get sick. Perhaps it was something else or I had a stomach bug? Possibly, but after I threw up and got it out of my system, I was fine after about an hour. I wouldn't recommend the food at all. Service and atmosphere is always nice.

Loved our time here!We were seated quickly, and immediately given water with our menus. The server, Sergio was incredibly kind, and totally on top of making sure we were taken care of.The food was served quickly, was absolutely delicious, and the servings were large, too! We all came home with about half of what we were served.The atmosphere is really nice, the decor is modern and stylish. I’d recommend this place to anyone looking to have a great meal, great service, and a great time!

Lets start with the pros: very friendly staff and the grocery store has some cool items! The paneer, garlic naan and tikka masala were excellent.The cons: The miso ramen was not very good:/ the noodles were soggy, the egg was hard boiled when it shouldve been soft boiled. The broth flavor was great but very rich and salty and needed to be diluted.I would come here again but probably not for the japanese menu.

I tried this restaurant during their lunch buffet. The food was delicious. In particular, I enjoyed the Coconut Curry Chickpeas. I gave it four stars because it took a while to replenish a chicken entree. Our all, it was a pleasant atmosphere.

Loved this restaurant. Had Tikka Marsala. Excellent. Split appetizer of samosa chatt. Huge and very good. We also tried Vindaloo, spice level 5. Very spicy but flavorful. The small grocery store had wide assortment of ethnic items.Vegetarian options: Wide variety.
Well the good: handsdown one of the best samosas I have ever had, and I’m a bit of a connoisseur!However the korma was not great. The veggies were all frozen mush which was quite disappointing. The sauce and spice were good and the rice was good as well. Not bad for South Dakota!

This is the 3rd time I've tried this place, thinking each time, maybe they just had an "off night" the last time. I really wanted to give this restaurant a chance. Coming from a big city, I was excited that there was a diverse restaurant in my new town.The food i received as a "to-go" order was not even edible. The ramen noodles were so sticky and just stayed in one giant clump. They were way overcooked and super pastey. The actual broth was pretty decent. The coconut rice was put in a small Styrofoam container with a rubber band wrapped around it to keep it closed. The rice was so hot that the rubber band caused the container to rip (melt) in half, and my rice ended up all over the rest of my food. The rice had a very burnt flavor with hardly any coconut flavor. The naan was delicious.I wish I could remember what I got last time bc that was also pretty disgusting. I didn't expect much from an Indian restaurant in Brookings, SD... but at least serve edible food.

My favorite Brookings restaurant by far! Beautiful location. Absolutely delicious food here. My friends enjoyed the pad Thai. The beef curry was SO GOOD. I have yet to find another one that measures up. Samosas and Naan bread are a must! I'll be back!

Flavor has gone downhill in the past six months. Last time we ate there one meal was inedible and a second meal was cooked incorrectly. Additionally the quality of the food seems to be declining.Add in the 3.5% surcharge for using a credit card and we will be eating there much less in the future. If there was another indian restaurant in town we would not return.I hope the owners see this review and take action to improve.(review edited to correct misstatement of surcharge fee)

Always enjoy going here for dates. The Tikka Masala is great, especially when paired with the garlic naan. Service is excellent as well, our servers often offer to explain the mostly foreign menu which helps a lot!
Loved the food. The service was great.
