We also got beers and coke. The food was good, the service was quick. But what disappointed us was the fact that they didn't have Thumbs up, coke or sweet lime soda( which is basically carbonated water with lemon juice, sugar and salt) on a Friday evening. But nonetheless, we had a good time. Chicken chettinad and baby corn manchurian were the stars of the show. I will recommend everyone to try these two dishes.

The decor is definitely Indian but a bit more elegant than a typical Strip mall location. The food was stellar. The goat was very tender and the gravy was really flavorful. My only disappointment was the need for the bathroom door to be scrubbed. It definitely had a significant amount of smudging and grime on it. Very very good dish.

My kids came with this time and enjoyed the pineapple shrimp curry and the mango curry (I forget…read morethe unique name of the mango dish but on the menu it had a crown icon and was not the mango one with the basil)-- both entrees were ordered in mild. These flavors were completely new to me, I've never had curries from an Indian restaurant that tasted like these. The pineapple curry was sweet but a little tangy and reminded me a bit of Thai curry (perhaps turmeric was really elevated in this curry?). The mango curry was also very sweet, it almost tasted like a sweetened butter chicken curry (specifically the northern Indian version of butter chicken-- if you know, you know). My son said the sweet flavor of the mango chicken curry reminded him of orange chicken from Chinese takeout and funny enough I thought it actually kinda did too! While these dishes were a hit with the kids (ages 7, 5, and 2) most adult tastebuds would prefer ordering them with at least some spice to balance out the intense sweetness (otherwise it can just seem "1 note"-- but 1 note "mild" was absolutely perfect for our young children who find even ground black pepper to be "spicy" haha). Maharaja Royal Bites, you just keep impressing me! I'm super happy we found these kid friendly options in your menu. Oh, ps, the kids LOVED their fried chicken appetizer too! Yelpers, ahelpful tip, we've noticed that here a "mild" spicy level can vary based on the dish. Sometimes it means literally no spice (like in the kid-friendly pineapple shrimp and mango curry) and other times we have found that it meant "yes, there is spice, and it's certainly more noticeable than black-- or even white ground-- pepper).

Chicken Tikka - really nice flavor, really solid chicken tikka Coconut Korma - good chicken, nice coconut flavor and great curry texture Lamb Saag - very light on the spinach in the saag.

Thankfully, Yelp led me to this convenient haven of flavor, and we finally got to try it last week with a takeout order. We ordered the chicken tikka, chana masala, garlic naan, and samosas. Everything was absolutely delicious! They gave us plenty of rice, and the garlic naan was plentiful and only $2--such a great deal. My only small complaint is that the samosas were covered in chana masala, which made them a bit soupy. It was still tasty, but I would have preferred plain samosas, which I didn't see as an option on the menu. Ordering online was super easy, and the food was ready in just 15 minutes. Bonus points for the gas station itself being clean and offering a large selection of snacks and drinks. I'll definitely be back for more!

It was empty around 2.45 pm on a weekend and we got our order within 20 mins. The chicken momos took time but the server informed us that ahead of time. In $51, we got: - chicken momos - 4/5 - over priced but the filling was good. I do wonder why they seemed greasy when they are steamed. The pairing sauces were really good too. - chicken tikka masala - 2/5 - bland and no taste. After telling the server to make it medium spicy, it was even lacking salt :( it looked pretty but had no spice or flavor. Despite being so expensive $21+ , it doesn't come with any noon, roti , rice - butter naan - 4/5 - buttery and soft, made fresh and took 10 mins plus for it to come. It did seem expensive. Next time i will try biryani and karahi chicken along with sizzler or tandoori item.

I am so full but completely happy. I wish I lived nearby so I could come here all the time.

We ordered Chicken 555 which was suggested as an alternative to the appetizer that we wanted because the other item would have taken too long to prepare. I ordered the Chicken Manchurian which was extremely hot, I think it would have been tolerable had I known to order rice or naan with it. It immediately caused acid reflux, so be warned if you are sensitive to spicy food. My partner ordered the Chicken Sukka Dosa and loved it. I would have given this place 5-stars but they were out of samosas. The host apologized and mentioned that in his 20+ years he has never ran out of them before. An Indian restaurant should never run out of a staple like samosas.

It is popular with an acquaintance of mine. So when I drove by this location in Victorian Square that name struck a bell and sure enough it's one in same. My friends and I arrived early for dinner on a Saturday night and we were glad we did because the restaurant began to fill up shortly after. Our waiter was very welcoming and led us through the menu and really spent time explaining it. It's a very broad menu with so much to choose from. We all were excited to try this place for a while now and it will prove itself. The three of us each chose a dish and shared them around the table. We began with the Samosa Plate. Two pastries filled with potatoes and peas, they were done in a chickpea and tamarind sauce, very tasty ; but we wished there was one more. So , my brave friend Jim chose Goat Curry, which I was skeptical of , Not a meat I'm at all familiar with, but what the heck, being adventurous here. His wife Marty chose a favorite of hers, Palak Paneer and I chose Butter Chicken. As we passed each around the table and piled on the fluffy basmati rice we began tasting each and we were finding everything to be delicious. I'll admit that my first try of the goat wasn't a Yummy moment but I did try another bite again later. The flavors of the other two dishes were perfect though. We also ordered garlic Naan which in my opinion could have been more garlicky but it was fluffy and good. The interior is very subtle in decor, but nice. I would suggest some art on the walls, maybe some of the beautiful colors found in India, but that's only my observation as an amateur interior designer. Our waiter continued to provide good service and all of us left the restaurant saying how much we liked it and would definitely return. I welcome them to Sparks and wish them great success.
