To be fair, I liked it. It’s what you think an Indian buffet would be. The food is solid and fair, but the waitstaff are really nice and helpful. It’s nicely decorated inside too, but I think it was a bit more expensive than it needed to be for the quality of food, although service and atmosphere makes up the gaps.

I like the paneer korma and lamb. You do get nice chunks. Very enjoyable buffet, big samosas and all that. I have to agree that the flavors can seem somewhat muted. They have rice pudding! I used to order aloo gobi from this place and it's been discontinued I think. Personally, it was a MAJOR blow and I will go back (more often) if you bring back the aloo gobi and dal tarka.

Fantastic food and friendly service. Efram is so kind and personally welcomes us when my friend and I come in on Saturdays. The samosas are great, Saag Paneer excellent, Chicken Tikka amazing, and the Goat Curry is also really good. They have a wide variety of other things on the buffet too, and I’ve probably tried it all!
