I recently noticed Karma while on my way to Office Depot to pick up an order. On my way out I saw…read morethat they'd done the printing for Karma's menus and business cards. I decided to grab one of the menus. I took a look and everything sounded appetizing. It was also a number of different dishes I hadn't seen on any other Indian restaurant menu. I decided to give them a try. I ordered take out. When I went in to pick up my food I was delighted by the decor. It's fun. The person who brought out my order was friendly. My party got several items on the menu: Malai Kofta, an assortment of breads and desserts, and the Chicken 65 Biryani. Everything was fantastic. The following week I saw that Karma was on TooGoodToGo as well. I couldn't pass up Karma suprise. The food was once again fantastic. The only thing I would change about the TooGoodToGo order would've been a little more variety in the dishes. What I got was great though. This place should be full whenever they are open. So good! I am looking forward to going back.

We get a table and start to order we think our server couldn't hear us maybe cause I think we got different things then we ordered but hey we just ate them, lol! Everything we tried was very good, but definitely seemed like some miscommunication with our server, like we asked for mild on a dish and it came out so spicy.

Hubby and I recently went to Persis Indian Grill for the first time. Our friend introduced us to…read morethis restaurant, and I am so glad. He ordered several dishes that we have never tried before and I was really pleasantly surprised: Karampodi chicken, Shrimp pepper fry, Guntur mirchi bajji, Nellore fish pulls, naan, & briyani. Our friend knew our typically go-to dishes are the butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, tandoori etc... so he ordered all these dishes so we can try new things. And every dish was delicious. Especially the Guntur mirchi bajji (fried green chili topped with onion & cilantro). Very delicious and fresh with different textures. It's a dish I'd have never ordered. I would definitely go back again to try more dishes there.

The boys were back together so we of course had to have Indian Food but we wanted to check out a…read morenew spot and Persis Indian Grill was the pick. We come in around 8:15PM on a Sunday night so we had no issue getting a table. Once seated we started off with drinks. I normally go for a Kingfisher but they didn't have it. Was they did have was better. We got a Taj Mahal Lager and this bad boy comes in a large size which we were all impressed with. A full 22oz-24oz bottle gets us every time. For entrees they had a bunch of options and the prices were really good. We of course had to get some Naan and we went with Garlic and Chili Cheese. Their Garlic Naan was thinner then I was used too but still good. The Chili Cheese Naan was great and I will be getting this every time it is offered. I ended up getting by go to. The Lamb Korma spicy level hot. This again was a great price $19 or $20. Most Indian places have it $5 or $7 more for Lamb. This was a nice big serving and it was loaded with tender chunks of Lamb. I will say it was for sure a more mild spice for sure not hot and the Korma Curry was flavorful but not as much as I have had. I would for sure come back because prices are very good friendly staff and so many options.

They have got better with time: the menus are more extensive, the staff are always polite, professional and welcoming, the seating is comfortable and the interior is nicely decorated. They accommodate all spice tolerance levels, and the food is always delicious, fresh and hot. Their ordering app is easy to use and rewards you with redeemable points against menu items. Not only are they a great dinner spot, but we call ahead at least once a month for a 10+ seat work lunch and they always make it work! Make sure you try them at least once, and if you're new to Indian food just ask the staff for their menu recommendations and you can't go wrong.

We…read moreordered Gobi Manchuria dry, the cauliflower was nice and crispy however their Manchurian sauce could be better as it tasted very plain and had no much flavour in it.

We also got their Thai which was fresh and amazing, it had 2 roti and 2 curries, with an appetiser, salad, rice etc.. Our server was very kind and nice she made some nice suggestions.

(not pictured, Rose flavored ice cream)…read more The chicken tikka masala pizza was delicious. Me and my girlfriend went on a Saturday evening for the first time, and were pretty satisfied with the price ($32.74 for 1 large pizza and 2 single scoops of ice cream + 20% tip). Only took about 20 minutes to make everything, and they offered to give us the ice cream as we paid or once we returned. We picked the food up and could NOT stop talking about how wonderful it smelled. The ice cream itself is great, though has a strong floral taste so keep that in mind. The pizza was excellent. If you enjoy Indian food in any capacity, I highly recommend you check this restaurant out. You WILL find something that will catch your eye.

We ordered three pizzas: Pepperoni, Kadai chicken, and Butter Chicken. All three were delicious! The crust was thin but not so thin that it couldnt hold up the toppings and stayed warm while we ate the whole pizza! You can taste the quality and the freshness of the veggies too. I would have liked a little more spice to the pizzas but maybe there is a sauce you can add on for that. Overall I would 100% recommend them if you like Indian food and even if you dont order the pepperoni because its so good.

When I realized that there was a restaurant serving Nepalese (and Indian) food, I had to go! I went on a Monday evening. The place was maybe 10% full. Huge place, very bright and airy. Some TVs over the bar (they have a full bar). No reservations needed on Mondays, for sure. I started with a Nepalese beer. It was fine. I got the chicken momos, the samosas, and the daal with rice. Portion sizes were huge, and the food tasted fresh and well-seasoned. I got way too much food for one person, but I wanted to taste a range on things. I wish I had a bigger stomach!

That's when we found 5th Element in the Town Center.

We both at all of the to-go order. We could have saved half for another meal but we were so hungry and it was so good that we just devoured it all. It was so good. He also got a Chikoo Shake (shake made with chikoo fruit) and while he said it was good, he had been hoping it was more like a milkshake). The prices are pretty reasonable so I think we found a good spot when the need hits us.

Take note there are two 5th Element spots within 10 minutes of each other. I started with one of their bottled Indian lagers. It wasn't too bad, although I wish they had draft options for the Indian beer. All the food was ordered for me prior to arrival so I'm a little lost on names of everything. We had Paneer Pakora (fried cottage cheese which was better than I had expected), buttered Naan bread, lentils and I believe vegetable biryani. It was all delicious! However, best part of the meal was the mango ice cream machine. That will make you comeback. It's house made. Our server was excellent. Highly recommend this spot! I'll be back if I'm in Jax again.
