    The desserts
    Alina A.

    This is a Bengali and Indian cusine combination! I liked the ambiance along with the serving portion size. My favorite items were the chicken Lollipops and fusion lassis. It's great to host a parties here

    Buffet spread.

    Came for lunch, doors were open at 11:30 for lunch but food wasn't all out yet. Said they were a bit behind. I opted for the buffet. A good number of vegetarian options. Tried some of the meats as well to gauge the flavor. Included some chutneys as well as desserts. Vegetarian foods were good. Chana Masala and Palak Paneer were two. Meat dishes were pretty tough from beef curry to butter chicken. Not a bad value for the buffet. I couldn't image paying $16-18 for these individual dishes though for the quality. Will try again and update if needed. I would return but my experience tells me there are better Bengali/Punjabi/Indian restaurants in the area.

    Chicken 65 Biryani that we couldn't leave any behind.

    Popped in for dinner one late evening. I wasn't expecting much from the restaurant. They advertise too many cuisines. First Impression, the exterior of the building does need some Indian décor. Walking in to the main door this place is surprisingly huge. They have two attached banquet rooms with a separate entrance. They have a separate buffet dining area. Dining area was very clean. Several thumbs up for having plates, glasses and silverware that had no water marks. The menu has a lot of variety. The menu has a mix of Indian and Indo Chinese entrees. We ordered Nihari and Naan. They had an interesting take on Nihari. They smoked it. Naan was fresh and fluffy. We ordered several other stuffed breads. They were on point. We will go again to try other entrees.

    During my recent trip to Michigan, I discovered that the Detroit Metro area has the largest…read moreconcentration of Arabic speakers with 4.7% of population aged 5 to adult primarily speaking Arabic at home (https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/05/18/5-facts-about-arabic-speakers-in-the-us/#:~:text=The%20Detroit%20metro%20area%20also,1.0%25%20of%20the%20total%20population.). As such, there was a plethora of excellent restaurants to select from offering Middle Eastern cuisine, one of the best of which was Asya. As is my penchant, when visiting a new city I pop open my trusty Yelp app for places to try and Asya was one of the first recommendations; it doesn't hurt that some of the locals also said they serve up tasty food. Located in a strip mall off the intersection of a busy road, the parking lot is tight, so if there are no spots directly in front of the restaurants, there is more availability off to the side. I stopped by a few times while I was in town, and Asya does a brisk take-out business, especially during the predictable lunch and dinner hours. I dined in both times, so I could enjoy my meal hot and "fresh from the kitchen." The interior is fairly nondescript with tile flooring, black tables/chair combos, and a neutral color palate. But because the dining room is "cozy," it can definitely get loud with just a few tables of hungry diners. The service and hospitality are superior, as to be expected from a family run establishment. I was always greeted with a warm smile and even after just a few visits, the staff seemed to recognize me. I really like the fact that for most of their entrees, you can order either a lunch or dinner portion. The shish kafta was an AMAZING deal at $12.99 at lunch. In addition to the main dish, it is served with either a salad or soup. I opted for the lentil soup, and it was tasty. Soft lentils were stewed in a creamy base and served with a bowl of individually wrapped pita slices. Honestly, I was already getting a bit full after just the soup course. Then the generous portion of the shish kafta arrived and I could only finish 1/2 of the plate, before taking the remaining portion home for dinner. The skewered meat patties were nicely seasoned with grated yellow onion, garlic, parsley, finely chopped mint, salt/black pepper, Sumac, cinnamon, as well as other spices. They were grilled just enough to have a nice char on the exterior, yet still remain moist. Instead of French Fries, I opted to have the yellow rice which was perfect for making mini-sandwiches with the leftover pita slices from my soup. To finish the meal, I had a few pieces of the house made baklava, which was flaky and not too sweet; perfect with my afternoon coffee. On another occasion, I also got the chicken shawarma, which again, was a bargain at $6.50 (before tax) and super filling with a side of fries. There are also many good Middle Eastern restaurants in the DC area, but not the variety of "mom and pop" places like Asya and definitely not at their price point and value.

    Good food fresh. Great customer service, stopped in for lunch . Will visit again soon!!!read more
