Love this place for their food and service. I'll be so happy when their dining room returns this spring.

Very interesting place - sit down Indian food with a large menu PLUS a bakery/desert bar all in one. We did takeout - they were extremely efficient and friendly. I see a lot of Indian food reviews and obviously there are a lot of diverse tastes - so its hard to really relate "You will like this or not" in a general way. I've had indian food all over the world - interestingly the best I've found is usually in the UK (Like the best Italian is Germany or Switzerland by far - yeah that will piss off the Italians)... That said, this seemed to me to be of mediocre quality. * The food leaned more toward high spice than flavor * Meats - chicken specifically - was not tender and seemed not to be spiced beyond the sauces/rubs * Rice was generally dry - including the Biryani which is supposed to be a rich flavorful and not dry dish from a pot - This was really dissapointing. * Naan was "ok" - fairly bland and a bit tough The deserts, however, were amazing - and upped my rating by a full star. Had a biscoff cheesecake, a pistachio cake and a creamy cake pot - all were great and very reasonably priced. Would I go back? Personally no read more

I'm so surprised that I haven't reviewed this place earlier! I've been here quite a few times. The food here is AMAZING and never disappoints. The Gobi Manchurian is TDF. Crispy, spicy, and tender, this is our favorite appetizer and a must-have for every visit. The Chicken Tikka Masala is YUM. A richly seasoned sauce with tender chicken pieces. There's not a lot of chicken, but plenty of sauce to pour over rice. We tried the Butter Chicken this time. It was very good. A nice curry flavor in a rich sauce. Again, not a lot of chicken, but lots of delicious sauce. The garlic naan was perfect. The chai, served in a small cup, is always good. Service is always polite and efficient. We have never been served cold food here. It always arrives hot. The ambiance is bright and colorful, with rather exotic ceiling lights They do not serve alcohol, but have hugely expanded their dessert offerings, and now have ice cream! read more

The mutton biryani was flavorful and cooked well -- definitely a highlight. We also tried the karampodi kodi, veg kheema biryani, and a couple of paneer appetizers -- all were solid and packed with spice and flavor. I've heard good things about their bakery items, but didn't get a chance to try them this time. Overall, a good place if you're craving Indian food with nice flavors, especially for takeout. read more

Large spot in a plaza with easy parking. The entryway and first area you walk through is filled with desserts which got our mouths watering. They even had a full station of Kwality ice cream (with flavors like gulab jamun!) We didn't get ice cream, but everything did look really tempting. We were seated right away at a booth table. Staff came over a little too quickly to take our order, so we had to tell them to come back twice. My husband loves chaat so we started with an order of papad chaat. What we got was definitely not papad chaat - this was some kind of smaller round cracker (looked just like ritz crackers but heftier/not crumbly) on the bottom, covered in chana masala (?? that's not usually on there), it was kind of lukewarm (usually it's cold), had nothing crispy on top, no tamarind, no pomegranate seeds. It tasted pretty good and definitely had a spicy kick to it, but it was just not papad chaat. My husband either saw or heard that the 'chaat station/cart' wasn't set up that day, which is fine, holiday Monday, but I still don't know exactly what they served us. (If the cart isn't open, maybe don't serve chaats?) Anyway, onto dinner. We shared 3 main dishes - chicken tikka masala, palak paneer, and aloo gobi. Apparently you get to choose a side of rice OR naan (usually it's just rice, and we order a side of naan) so we got "2 sides" of rice and one of naan. It ended up being the right proportions thankfully. Chicken tikka masala was good, tasty, and the chicken was cooked well. I always wish there was a *little* more chicken, but we each got about 3 pieces. The aloo gobi was also tasty, as was the naan. I'm not a paneer person so I didn't try any. We ordered all 3 dishes medium and they were not particularly spicy - the chaat we had to start was much hotter. At the end, the waiter told us if we used cash we'd get a 5% discount, but we didn't have enough cash. Then when my husband was tipping on the card, the waiter said something about leaving cash instead, but that's....up to us, not him? We were a little confused at a few things he said. Overall the dinner was pretty good, though the chaat thing was weird and I wasn't in love with the waitstaff. Would probably check out some other Indian places first. read more

Excellent food and extremely courteous staff. Even the ambiance of the place is top notch and has a constant buzz. Where my experience starts to wane is the fact I had to wait nearly 45 minutes for my order. I didn't realize it would take this long. I saw many people place to-go orders and then come pick them up. I should have done the same too but being a first timer how would I even know it would take that long. After 30 minutes one of the waitstaff behind the counter sheepishly approached me and handed me a savory bread item. It was really tasty but there was no explanation why they handed it to me other than a head shake and smile. I came here on a pinch being I used to live in the area and love supporting local businesses. The entrance is adorned with showcases full of pastries and ice cream as you walk to the host stand. The entire environment is super satisfying so I think maybe I got a one off experience. I'll still keep this place on my radar but nothing is making me gravitate towards returning. My tikka masala only came with a big container and naan included. This came out to almost $20. Slightly offended there was no rice or utensils or any offer of utensils. Once your order is ready a text message is sent to you. Had I know I would've gone to sit in my car or wander around. Still, the flavor was good so maybe a return, maybe not. read more

Based on recent recommendations, I came here for some chaat. We got the sev puri and dahi puri and the dahi puri was really good. What disappointed me is the sev puri was just dahi puri without the dahi - that's not sev puri! You don't serve sev puri in a golgappa puri. Filter coffee was good. I did however try their Vijaywada biryani recently and that was very good. Service is slow! Increasing a star only for their biryani! read more

The food here is outstanding taste and value. We love the biryanis because, and we always have so much leftovers to enjoy the next day. The curries and dosas are also well done. I wish the chole bhature was the large puff instead of multiple small puffs but it wasn't bad. Service here can sometimes be torturously slow. Gives you plenty of time to digest your food before the check comes to the table. read more

In my opinion, the two defining dishes of any Indian restaurant is the dosa and the CTM (chicken Tikka Masala). Both are pretty standard dishes that are easy to reproduce well....and when done well are magnificent. That is what we ordered: CTM - pretty epic. Really a layered creamy sauce so well spiced, it was perfectly done. It has bell pepper and onions that are clearly added later in the cooking process as they retain their crunch. I would order this on repeat. Dosa - defined by my meal partner as the "worst dosa they ever ate". Why you ask? The dosa was soft and limp, not the extra crispy as was ordered. It is served with potatoes that were waterlogged and had no taste. A 3 star rating is being given when you mess up a dosa so badly. Also, the staff is by no means rude, but also by no means friendly. The food also came out at different times so always that awkward dance of - do I let my food get cold and not enjoy it to be polite or do I awkwardly eat while they are staring at me? read more

New favorite Indian restaurant! Absolutely loved my experience here! From the moment you walk through the doors, you smell an amazing aroma that foreshadows the meal to come. At the entrance is a bakery with lavish desserts which caught my eye from the start. We made sure to take a few home to indulge in later that evening. We got a gulab jamun cheesecake which was phenomenal and my favorite out of all the ones we tried. There was also a tres leches that was at the top of my list. For our meal, we ordered way too much, and I think the waiter was impressed at how little food was leftover at the end! We started with the Pani puri which is always a favorite of mine. Then the onion samosas came out which were good, along with the chili paneer. We almost didn't order it, but were so glad we did, because the chicken 555 was the most delicious dish we tried! Spicy and flavorful, and it'll definitely be something we always order when we go there moving forward. The tandoori chicken came out on a steaming hot plate and was amazing! We also ordered the chicken lollipops and I have to say all these chicken dishes that we ordered were so good that we had trouble rating our favorites on these. The chicken lollipops were so tasty and the meat practically fell off the bone. We ordered the butter chicken as well, as this is a staple dish I like to try at every Indian restaurant when I'm a first timer and I can say that the flavor and consistency was better than most I've tried! And lastly, we had to try one of the biryanis. I'm not normally a huge fan of biryani, and we asked our waiter to recommend one to us, and to be honest I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. That was the only thing we couldn't finish because the dish of rice was huge and of course we ordered so many different things. I had some more biryani the next day for lunch at home and it was just as good the next day! Overall, we had an amazing time at Bawarchi, and whenever I'm in the mood for Indian food, this will without a doubt be my first choice! read more

Closed for extensive remodeling, but they are still listed as open. No way to know this until you make the drive over there.

Highly recommended Indian Restaurant in Metro Denver!!! Been visiting this place for almost 2+ years. We had almost of all their Biryanis/Entrees/appetizers and weekend specials - Pretty consistent in their taste and Quality. read more

The food is really good at Barwarchi. The service however left something to be desired. I went with a friend a few weeks back before an event. We both share a love of Indian food, so I wanted to introduce her to this place. A friend of mine brought me here several years ago touting it as one of her favorite places to get biryani. I remembered liking it, so figured while we were going to be in the area it would be a good idea to visit. When we arrived our orders were taken. My friend got a little guilted out of a hotter dish, which was probably for the best, but the way it was addressed made her feel insecure about her decisions. The food took a long time too despite it seeming like a not super busy night for the restaurant or for pickups. The food was great. We both got chicken tikka masala and some garlic naan. No one ever came to check on us again. We wanted more water, but no one ever came by to ask how our food was or if we needed anything. That is an experience I expect when I am dining in a restaurant. Overall, I might just order takeout in the future from this particular location. I have visited the Louisville location several times, and feel like I have had better experiences there in terms of service. read more

Better dosas and curry than I've had after living in Chicago for 30 years!!! They have a great variety, and you can even customize the crispyness level of your dosa. The sauces and chutneys on the side are rich, not watered down, and the salty lassi was SO thick and creamy! The goat curry had lots of meaty pieces and comes with super fresh and crispy naan. They make a variety of chaat like pani puri too, and have an entire bakery section of cake slices and breads! Really authentic flavors here and great service. read more

I have been to couple Indian restaurants in SE Aurora area and so far this place had the best tikka masala. We ordered chicken tikka masala, tandoori chicken, chicken briyani, butter and garlic naan, and mango smoothie. I completely forgot to take pictures of all the foods after the first plate (tandoori) came out. The tandoori chicken wasn't what I am used to. Normally a whole chicken split and grilled is what I am used to, but here they served it in kebab-like pieces. I ordered medium heat and at first I thought it wasn't spicy at all but the heat slowly kicks in. If you are used to Asian spicy like Thai pepper spicy then medium is not that spicy. Comes with a minty dipping sauce. Chicken briyani is a big portion! The bone-in chicken pieces were hidden under large portion of rice. Rice was fluffy and chicken was moist. The chicken in the briyani was much softer than the tandoori pieces. My favorite by far was the chicken tikka masala and the mango smoothie. They didn't serve with rice, but it paired perfectly with naan. I enjoyed how well balanced the seasoning was. Some places have too much tomato paste and spice and I get a heart burn after. Here it was a very flavorful dish with a great balance of the cream base and spices. The mango smoothie was thick and you can tell they blended with real mango. I did wish it was little colder when served, but it still was very delicious. The interior was pretty and lighting was perfect. Our server's name was Ab. He was very kind and tentative. Next time I will definitely try their desserts. read more

I don't know why the ratings are so low here. This place is amazing! They have desserts, food, cream puffs, and ice cream! I am in LOVE with the dahi puri. I've also had the chicken tikka masala and the Saag paneer. Everything was good and the dishes come with naan or rice which is great. I honestly want to come here every time I'm in town and try everything they have to offer. I've also had their mango chia pudding and cake and everything is great! I got a medium spice level and it wasn't that spicy so if you like spice I would go with spicy. read more

The food is excellent but it gets so crowded always a good sign. We prefer to order our food in advance. The place is clean and they do a good job at managing everything. If you plan on Dining in there could be a wait especially on weekends. Biriyani is a crowd favorite, they also have Thali's for lunch which I think is a great deal. You can try different options for $14 which is reasonable. Definitely get the bakery items like puffs and special mention to the pastries love the caramel custard, tres de leches and chocolate truffle. Cheers! read more

Awesome food! Really the best Barwarchi in the country. I have eaten at several and the food is legit here.

Some of the best Indian food we have experienced. Honestly the only let down was the service. We arrived 30 minutes before closing. We asked the manager if that would be a problem and he assured us it would not. He didn't check with the wait staff who took EVERY opportunity to rush us and point out they were closing soon. We weren't eating slow but we were super rushed and left a lot of food because we felt guilty. A few tips: - Hot means hot. They are not kidding. I ordered the Lamb Korma 'medium' and it was blistering. The fam ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala 'mild' and it was very medium to hot. This may have been to get us to eat faster but I loved the heat. - Lamb is not lamb, it is mutton and comes with bones. I found this out as I speared the roof of my mouth. I have not encountered that before and it would have helped knowing that as we went in. I left the majority of the lamb in the bowl since I didn't have time to pick it. Again, the flavors here were amazing and I cannot wait to try it again. Next visit we will make sure we have ample time, the waitstaff made it very uncomfortable to eat that late. read more

Don't review many restaurants, but had to after our experience was so different than some others. Started with veggie samosas - they tasted fresh and the spices were on point. Very good sauce. We had paneer Tikka masala and vegetable korma for mains. Veg korma was a revelation! Not too heavy and with spices I don't normally associate with veg korma. But they worked! Paneer Tikka was the style I usually see and well executed. Garlic naan and rice as expected were good. They also had lots of more interesting options that we would try if we lived near here including a wonderful looking bakery. Service was.fine - businesslike and efficient. Friendly chat afterwords. Only down side for me is no alcohol that I saw. read more

This stuff i can not stand - i come in and there is a group ahead of me, I wait at hostess stand - that group seated - i stand at hostess stand for 5 minutes This guy walks around me and to a register "must be picking up an order" i thought They sit him down! So apparently the hostess stand is to waste people time. The real way to get service is to go anywhere you can find staff even if someone was waiting there ahead of you I just walked out read more

Terrible service, we waited for 35 minute to get the food because the server forgot to place our order. I ordered a vegetarian dish, malai kofta, and it came with 4!!! small meatballs in a lot of sauce. All for $15. On the other hand, chicken biryani was huge, double the size of my head. Such a rip off for vegetarian dishes. I won't be back to this place! read more

What a great recommendation we received from an acquaintance. The food is bursting with flavor. To start we tried the Samosas, paneer, and chicken lollipops. My favorite was the Samosas. They were light and flaky with great flavor on the inside. The side dipping sauce was a nice compliment. My husband favored the lollipops. They had a nice crunch when biting into them, with great taste. We also tried their Butter Chicken and Tikka Masala. They ask what heat you want (which I love). It comes with a side of either Naan or rice. Both dishes were delicious! Lastly, we tried their hot tea. It is fragrant and tasty. Next time we want to save room and try one of their many desserts. It was hard to resist walking by all the delicacies. read more
