Great value. They don't skimp on the meat. For instance, the lamb biryani always has huge tender chunks of lamb and there is more meat than there is rice. Every time I leave here, I'm so satisfied from my meal and vow to come back more often!

Pros - Quantity- The food was plentiful and not bad for the price. - Flavor- Just what you'd expect for an Indian restaurant. It is a bit "American-ized" but still very good. (They let you pick the spice level too, which is nice. Got a 3 for my first time and it wasn't too spicy at all.) - Atmosphere- Place is very clean and authentic and is just what you'd want for a good meal in West Lafayette. Cons - Service- If I had to give one downside, service wasn't the best, but it did the trick. Cant wait to come back and try more!

You order at the counter and you fetch your drinks from the soda fountain. My guest and I were actually planning to go to another Indian restaurant, however, it was closed unexpectedly. We did enjoy the food itself. We started with vegetarian spring rolls which were delicious. I ordered the butter chicken, my go to dish. I enjoyed it a lot. My friend had something vegetarian, but I forgot the name of the dish. She said it ran a bit spicy. I wasn't really into the naan here, it seem rather doughy. The paper plates didn't do it for me, nor did the paper cup for my hot tea. So really just get it carry out, because the food is great, but the ambiance is non-existent.

I also love supporting spots like this--it's locally owned by a Hamilton County family, which makes it even better Everything is made fresh daily using authentic cooking methods, and you can truly taste it in every bite. I started with the jalapeño paneer appetizer--creamy, spicy, crispy... honestly addictive. We had the lamb vindaloo and the butter chicken--bold, rich, and perfectly balanced. The vindaloo brought the heat in the best way, and the butter chicken was smooth, comforting, and full of flavor. I love that the menu pulls inspiration from all over India, with tons of options (including vegan), and everything comes out hot and fresh. They're open Tuesday-Sunday 10:30 AM-10 PM with a lunch buffet, full menu, and full bar.

For lunch they offer a buffet and for dinners, there is an a la carte menu. I'm not usually a buffet kind of diner, but I made an exception to try the food. The benefit of the buffet is that you get to sample many different options. The dining room is upscale, immaculate and comfortable with beautiful murals on the walls. A interesting mural of downtown Indy is over the bar. (BTW, they have a full bar). TV monitors played Bollywood and other colorful Indian shows. The hosted is welcoming and super friendly and tells you to go straight to the buffet, while she gets water. The $15 buffet is separated in to vegetarian options, meat options and salads. I tried a number of my Indian favorites including Chicken Masala, Butter Chicken, Vegetable Curry, Aloo (potato) Pakoda, Assorted Vegetables and salad (romaine) with assorted dressings. I also tried the Rice Curd. My favorite was the Butter Chicken and Aloo Padoka. The food was a perfect spicy for me. It was slightly spicy hot, but not unbearable. The hostess also brought us out servings of warm butter naan. She checked on us several times and encouraged us to try some desert, which we had missed. The balls of Gulab Jamun were sweet and delicious. I was glad she sent us back! Munzul, the owner, stopped by our table and introduced himself. He is friendly and sought honest feedback. He is eager to please his new clientele. There seems to be plenty of parking in the tiny strip mall lot. The building is accessible.
