Amrit Palace was so good. It really has an upscale luxurious feel to it. It was really busy on a Friday night. We didn't make reservations but probably should have. We only had to wait 20 minutes, which was lucky. The food was amazing. I ordered the Chicken Vindaloo with rice and dal soup. The chicken was tender and tasty. My only complaint is that I ordered it extra hot and I would say it was more hot than extra hot. We got garlic naan to share. They have a good cocktail list too. I ordered the Mango Monsoon. It was more on the boozy side than I expected. I hope to come back while I'm in town! read more

Amrit palace is beautifully decorated. It has a peaceful vibe. It's dimly lit which adds to that aesthetic. The menu is pretty expansive with chicken and lamb entrées as well vegetarian. I ordered the chicken tikka masala with side of basmati rice and crispy cabbage. They put onions and peppers in the sauce which I have never seen before but it added a nice crunchiness to the dish. The chicken was so nice and tender it melted in my mouth. The flavor of this dish was amazing. Everything was delicious. Our server was very attentive. He was knowledgeable about the menu and answered any questions we had. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Finally made it to this wonderful place! I've been in the area for seven years and had only ordered takeout once--so I'm not sure why I waited so long to dine in because everything was fantastic. The food, the service--everything was superb. We had the tandoori chicken, lentil soup, and tikka masala, and every dish was flavorful and perfectly prepared. We'll definitely be returning. We also ordered a specialty cocktail that's no longer on the menu, and our server went out of their way to make it happen--such great service! I also love that you can customize the spice level. One person in our group requested no spice but was mistakenly served a spicy dish; it was handled quickly and without any issue. Do yourselves a favor and give this place a try--you won't regret it read more

This place was absolutely delicious! We ended up selecting this place since they were open on Christmas night, and I was a bit nervous since I normally struggle with lots of spices. However, here, you can select your spice level for each meal. At other Indian Cuisine restaurants I have been to, you're limited on the menu option due to your spice level. I got the Butter Chicken (Spice Level: Mild) with Basmati Rice and the Dal Soup, and I enjoyed every bite. I also got the Lychee Martini, and it was delicious as well. The restaurant is super cute and has Indian designs throughout which add a nice touch. The staff was also extremely kind and helpful. I would definitely come here again while visiting Ocala. read more

Average food.Outstanding service. Prompt and attentive staff.Clean and subdued atmosphere.

The food was good but I don't think it was the best Indian cuisine I've ever had. I went with the entree special, with the appetizer sampling, tikka masala, chickpea salad, garlic naan, and mango cheesecake. I think the sauces really elevated the dishes. The staff were AMAZING and our waiter Kiran was AWESOME! The ambiance was really nice and I heard they are opening a location in GNV so I'm excited to try there too. read more

This place is amazing. The server was very kind. The restaurant overall has a nice vibe. We ate here on a Friday night and split a couple of things. Everyone loved their cocktails. Definitely get the garlic naan to go with your meal. We had so much food and were stuffed. read more

Amrit had such great reviews so I tried it. The food was just meh. Wasn't worth the $$

Inassumong on the outside, GORGEOUS on the inside. Id been out to Ocala to get an adjustment, and saw a sign for Amrit palace, and since od never been, i said lets go. I was dining alone, so inwas sat at a two top along the wall, a very handsome and soft spoken man was my server, and alas I didnt get his name. He was attentive and kind and very prompt. I ordered the meat samosas, and an order of Butter Chicken, Cabbage and something else. The samosas were delightful. I ate one and brought the 2nd home. The butter chicken waw very good, very flavorful, i was happy about that order. The cabbage was amazing. There were spices inside that i dont recognize, but they were good! The garlic Naan was some of the best I:ve had. I will be back and bringing friends read more

what the heck happened here? Amrit was great food. Did they get whipped by immigration policies? Bad nite? New chef formerly the dishwasher? New owners? Nice interior make-over. Much smaller menu, no okra or eggplant, onion kulcha and other faves. Even the mango lassi was meh. 3 different shrimp dishes tried, all failed for flavor. 4 dull sides to choose from. Garlic naan lacked any garlic flavor. Perhaps a garlic was waved over it. Amrit was as good as it got. As good as London, NY and Vietnam Indian restaurants. Guess it's over. Pedestrian Indian food for Americans now. Oh well. read more

We found this place while driving on the turnpike in Florida with a beautiful sign on the road heading north thought we would give it a shot. The atmosphere was very authentic and delightful. The rating says it's 4.5 stars and it is absolutely worth every bit of it. The ambience as you will see in the pictures is really cool for a place in Northern Florida. Food was absolutely excellent and delicious. We ordered the butter chicken and Service was six minutes from the time we sat down to the delivery to the table. I gave the non-which was garlic and the butter chicken five stars and Godwin, our server was super, super professional, fast and efficient ask for him. You will never go wrong. Enjoy this beautiful Indian cuisine. read more

This was one of the first places we visited while on a house hunting trip to the area. My wife and I had lunch here with our realtor and we all loved our dishes. My wife and our realtor both ordered the Chicken Korma ($19.99) and I had the Butter Chicken ($18.99). We then shared a couple orders of Garlic Naan ($4.99). Portions were generous and dishes had bold flavors we've come to expect of Indian cuisine. Service was friendly and attentive. The value was not exactly there but the flavors made it all worth it. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Service was very nice from entry to departure ~ I'm afraid I don't remember our waiter's name, but he was help with all our questions. It was nice to come into the serene atmosphere in a nicely appointed venue. Two of us just stopped in for a quick snack and we were pleased with the recommendation for the variety appetizer. Each had its distinct taste and the combination was complementary. We will definitely return for a full course meal! read more

The food was delicious. I tried their weekend buffet. There was a good variety of starters, main course items, rice and desserts. The food was absolutely delicious. Their chole bhature have my heart. Will be going back to buffet again hoping they have those again. I also have to say they have a decent selection of chutneys and stuff. My only thing is that I do wish they had bowls for stuff like sambhar. They did very tiny ones in the dessert area but like I go for the food. And fhe food was fantastic 10/10. The service was great with fresh naans being served to the table. The restaurant itself is clean and lots of well spaced tables. read more

A friend selected this restaurant as part of our travels and I am glad she did. We stopped in at lunch time and I was a bit concerned that there were no others in the restaurant. That concern quickly disappeared when we were quickly and pleasantly seated. The menu had an abundance of excellent choices with good descriptions and the servers also provided their recommendations. The decor was really beautiful and I would guess this would be a great spot for a nice date night. I felt like I was in a palace. Everything from the drinks to the appetizers to the main meal were all delicious. The portions were a nice size but since we were passing through, we opted not to take our leftovers. Would certainly return in a heartbeat and will recommend to any friends passing though Ocala. Keep up the great service and excellent food. read more

This was a restaurant high suggested by our friends who are locals. Honestly, it was a great place to feed 15+ hungry people! The waiters gave us our own room in the back which was perfectly quiet, and they were extremely attentive to us the entire time. All drinks and food came out at a reasonable time. The palak paneer that I ordered was bold with the exact flavors you are hoping for, and the portions were enough to feed two. If you're looking for a pick me up drink, highly suggest the coffee!! All in all, I would come back here again and again to try either other dishes since they all looked great! read more

Whole experience was amazing! Sam was our server and he gave excellent recommendations! My wife ordered chicken butter curry and I ordered Lamb Vindaloo. We decided on garlic cheese naan and plain naan. The food is outstanding! Both the chicken and the lamb were tender and super flavorful. I ordered my vindaloo "Hot" which was perfectly extinguished by the mango lassi my wife and I shared! We absolutely did not have room for dessert! read more

Amazing experience. The food was so delicious so drag it felt like home cooked good ingredients food. The service was exceptional and quick. The prices were great for what we ate. I would recommend this for a date night, the lights were low and full of color inside. I loved the romantic vibes. The food is full of spices but not spicy. The lamb meat was tender and the chicken juicy. Sauce dishes pair well with rice and naan. They had a $40 meal that was worth it. Must try! read more

I love Amrit Palace. I will definitely come again. Amrit palace is a Indian cuisine in Ocala, FL. The location is nice- right off the highway on SR-200. The design is Indian themed (ofc) and the food tastes great. Also, all meat is halal fyi. So we ordered 4 vegetable samosas, butter chicken (with a side or garlic naan and rice), goat curry (with a side of chickpea salad and rice), and a mixed platter. For beverages we got a Sprite, water, mango juice, and mango lassi. Now lets talk about the food. The butter chicken (which I ordered, I literally have nothing to say to you guys. That's how good it was. It was the best food I've had in a very very long time. The gravy melts in your mouth and its soooo tasty. The mango juice and tasty vegetable samosas were good sides to go with it. Also, the service was very nice. I recommend you give a tip. I would recommend this place to anyone who saw that billboard on I-75 North saying " best Indian food in Ocala" if they have a taste for Indian food. read more

This place was great! Where I live, which is about an hour from this restaurant, we have no Indian food other than a food truck. I was so excited to try this place with my daughter and son-in-law. We were greeted by a friendly server, who was funny and very helpful. I don't even think he wrote anything down! The flavors of the food or spot on and I wish I had pictures, but we ate our food so fast because it smelled so delicious and we were hungry. My husband and I have been to India and I can tell you that these flavors are authentic and it tasted like we were back on vacation in India. They are remodeling, so the back room was the only thing that was open, but it was lovely, and I love the chandeliers that hung over our heads. When I'm back in the area, I would not hesitate to go there again. read more

Having never had Indian food before, a friend highly recommended Amrit. Great experience! Sam was our server and helped us to understand the foods, the sauces, and how to enjoy them. My husband is not a brave spice eater and we got the butter chicken for him - he loved it (so did I)! The appetizer sampler was a good introduction to small bites as well. My veg biryani was delish and the Sassi was a perfect compliment to the heat. Most of our choices were perfect portions but we did bring home another meal's worth of my biryani. Don't hesitate to go - a very enjoyable experience. read more

The food here is great and I love the friendly service. They also have great cocktails. They are doing a lot of renovations inside so it's a little wonky to dine in but not terrible. The first time we sat in the main dining room and there were loud saws and machinery during our whole meal. The second time we sat in the new room they were working during our first visit and it was very nice but there was still plastic everywhere and people dining in the small hallway. I'm sure it will be very nice when the renovations are complete. It is on the pricier side, most dishes are $16-$23, cocktails $10-$12. With drink and appetizers, our bill was $100+ read more

I've been coming here for years. It is the best Indian food place around. I usually order to go. It's expensive but so delicious.

One of the few places open on July 4th, we got there just as they were closing and they were gracious and let us in. Our waiter Keyran (sp?) greeted us and was smiling from ear to ear and was very friendly. I got the butter chicken with my daughter and my wife got the Tandoori chicken. We have a favorite Indian restaurant where we live back home. I felt the butter chicken was on par (a good thing!). My daughter who is picky, absolutely LOVED it. My wife felt the Tandoori chicken was missing something and was hoping for a little bit stronger seasoning, but was still happy. She got a cucumber mint vodka and she said the drink was excellent. The naan was also very good. The portions aren't massive, but the price point was excellent and they do offer a military discount for AD/veterans. The place was spotless clean and the decor was standard for an Indian restaurant. I would definitely return next time I'm here.

It happened. Throwing caution to the wind (mostly me), we finally went to Amrit Palace to try Indian cuisine. Why in the world did we wait so long?! I will freely admit, I am terrible with the names of the dishes. I had the chicken tikka masala, we had rogan josh, mixed beriyni (sp?), some amazing appetizers, cheesy bread, sweet bread, and a bunch of other sauces to try with the food. The flavors - the spice combinations, the tangy mixes of heat and flavor - are just outstanding! It's truly difficult to describe - it is best experienced first-hand (tongue?). read more

I have ordered take out from here quite a few times . Today we ordered take out as usual but I was shocked by the size of the take out containers! These are not even 1/2 inch full . For $20 a container this is a HUGE scam . Absolutely not $20 worth of food ! They definitely downsized on the containers but went up on price . Food tastes good but will not be returning . read more
