I am so happy I found a delicious Indian food restaurant in York. The food is so good! I ordered…read morethe veggie somosas which were probably the best I've ever had. The butter chicken which was perfectly spiced. I ordered it mild. The sauce was really good but the best part was the tender pieces of chicken. I also ordered the egg biryani in medium spice. It was perfectly spiced. It wasn't the best biryani I've had. But I would order it again. The staff was very polite while placing my order and when picking up my food. The only set back of this place is the location. It's super sketch but they have signs showing you how to locate it. It's located in a hotel and there's a bit of a walk to get to it. The ambiance is relaxed. They do have indoor seating but it's a small space. I'm not sure if they could accommodate large groups but it is in a hotel banquet area so maybe they could.The food is delicious, I will definitely return here.

We ordered butter chicken and tikka masala and both were very good! I give 3 stars only because the…read moresauce was a little tangier than I'm used to, I'm guessing they use yogurt or marinate the chicken in yogurt but either way wasn't my favorite taste. I did have leftovers and the next day tasted less tangy! It was still very good and the amount of food for the price was good! My husband and I both ate our meals twice. We did take out so I can't comment on the restaurant itself but the service while ordering and picking up was great! Will for sure try them again, the naan was DELICIOUS!

This is by far the worst Indian food I've ever had. If you want to waste your money on Indian food…read morego here. As a South Asian, I have never been this disappointed. Mango lassi- full of food coloring and the cardamom flavor is so overpowering! You literally cannot even taste any mango. Idk why this lassi was orange bc mango lassi is usually yellow. Naan- literally pre made Costco naan. Not even fresh or in house made. And they're charging $3-$4 for one piece?! Bollywood Platter Appetizers- pakoras are just batter with orange food coloring. The chicken pakora was freezer burn chciken dipped in besan batter. Dumplings were probably the only thing my husband said was edible. Samosa was also below average- literally taste like the frozen ones from the Indian grocery store. So if they is also pre made Costco samosas I wouldn't be surprised. Butter chicken- the worst! Again. I don't understand why you need to use so much orange food coloring. Bland gravy. No salt, the cardamon flavor was so overpowering that it was not edible. Food was around $37-$40. Over priced horrible "Indian food". I even requested the gentleman who took my order to make it desi style so if this is desi style then idk what their regular food taste like. I have tried so many Indian restaurants around central pa and this was by far the WORST. If you want good AUTHENTIC Indian food go to Banana Leaf in Mechanicsburg. I really want to support local businesses near me but if my money is getting wasted like this I will not support them. Never coming back.

I normally always love Indian food but something about each dish was off. We got the Kodi vopidu (chicken stir fry) based on some prior Yelp reviews. It was ok but not super flavorful or impressive. Was not really a fan of the veggie korma--it was full of spices but not as creamy as I'm used to. The texture was almost grainy? The portions were a bit small as well for the price. My husband did get a lentil dish (not sure which one) which was the best out of the tree we ordered. Overall we were disappointed as Nalan had a very high Yelp rating (probably because of its nicer interior--cute wall with a word cloud of food) but the food itself was underwhelming. There are multiple Indian and Nepali restaurants on the east shore we liked better.

From the moment we sat down, the service was exceptional. Gabe took care of us and she was…read morephenomenal, warm, attentive, and responsive. That kind of hospitality makes a meal memorable. Cocktails here are seriously well done, a great range to choose from. The mango lassi stood out too, topped with a little rose made of rose syrup, such a thoughtful detail. The appetizers were excellent and set the tone for the meal. For mains, the peanut curry and soft garlic naan were incredible, honestly on par with the best Indian food you'll find in any big city. Indian food with a playful fusion twist. And then dessert. The gulab jamun was great, but the red velvet cake with homemade ice cream stole the show, rich, perfectly balanced, and unforgettable.

So, I don't know about you, but every once in a while, I might take a cruise or go to a nice hotel…read moreand fantasize about having nice things--something like positive manifestation. When I walk into a nice place, I often notice the floor, maybe marble, maybe terrazzo, or just really wet and shiny tile. Well, it makes me feel good knowing that the floor is clean. I know that everything else inside of the establishment is also going to be clean. That's how I felt when I was at this Indian restaurant. Now, I was on my way to go do a strip-and-wax job to make someone's floors look wet and glossy. I decided to stop and get some lunch along the way, and this is where I ended up: Royal Kitchen. I don't eat a lot of meat in my life anymore. That's the reason why I have so much energy, but this diet is not for everyone because everyone is different. However, let's stop talking about me. Let's talk about how delicious this food was. It did take a little while for it to come out, but I was pleasantly surprised by how fluffy on the outside and also crisp the garlic naan was. The prices were very reasonable, and I believe at this place, I got a coconut cashew dish, and I must say it was very delicious. Now, normally when I eat Nepali and/or Indian food, it is spicy. I got the medium spice. That way, I was able to enjoy the flavor notes, and, well, I didn't regret it. This establishment is great. It is right off the highway and has plenty of seating. They also have a bar area, which is amazing. And if you want to have a banquet hall for a party of 10 or more, this is definitely the spot. The menu has all the ingredients listed and what is inside the food, which makes it very easy to choose what you want to eat. The bathrooms are also very clean. When you walk in, there is some incense in the beginning, and it is not overwhelming. It is pleasant and relaxing. It feels like you were transported into what I would believe is another part of the world. So, if you want to be a part of this world, I invite you to come and try the food here at this establishment! If you like my reviews, please visit my YouTube channel: @brandenleebutler

This is an intimate BYOB spot, and it was completely packed when we arrived. The atmosphere feels cozy and authentic -- the kind of place where you know care goes into both the food and the hospitality. We ordered the chickpeas, cauliflower, and a mango lassi. One thing we really appreciated: they asked us what spice level we preferred. My wife doesn't like spicy food, and they thoughtfully prepared everything mild for us without sacrificing flavor. The chickpeas were outstanding -- rich, well-seasoned, and deeply satisfying. The cauliflower wasn't quite to my personal taste, but it was well prepared. And the mango lassi? Absolutely amazing -- creamy, refreshing, and the perfect complement to the meal. Portions were generous, and the service was prompt and genuinely excellent throughout the evening. If you're in Lancaster and enjoy flavorful Himalayan and Indian cuisine in a cozy BYOB setting, this place is definitely worth a visit -- just plan ahead and make that reservation.

Everything was cooked perfectly and the rice was aromatic, the chicken was tender, and the daal had good spice and body to it. The naan was a little underwhelming (I'm not sure if it was fresh or maybe made from frozen), but it was small and a little drier than I would have hoped for. Service was good and the only other issue was one of our drinking glasses clearly wasn't clean as I could see lipstick marks on it still. The server was prompt in correcting the issue for us. No other issues and enjoyed the experience.

On another note, this is literally the best Indian food I've ever had, having eaten Indian food all across the US. You can't go wrong with eating here! What's even better is that they now have a buffet on the weekends, which is a fraction of the price, and just tasty! Strongly recommend!
