We were greeted right away and offered our choice of table, we sat by the window. We ordered the saag paneer, rice and garlic naan to share. The food came out quickly, but not too fast. Everything was wonderful. That naan...oh my! They have many varieties and I can't wait to try more. They have a lunch special and happy hour all day until 6pm (1/2 off all drinks). I will be back for a glass of wine and a couple orders of the different naan choices. Our server Jennifer was so friendly. With Bollywood videos playing in the background and the wonderful food, this is a great place to escape the bustle of old town and relax.

Unfortunately, the food was quite bland. We had specifically asked for medium heat, so the lack of flavor did not seem related to spice level. We were a group of six, and gratuity was automatically added, calculated on top of the sales tax. The ambiance was pleasant and the setting was nice, but the food itself was disappointing.

Great food, incredible service, and excellent value for money. We tried several different curries,…read moreand I really liked that you can choose your spice level from 1-10. Just be careful -- the heat builds up slowly, so if you're not used to spicy food, go lower on the scale! The portions were generous, everything was very flavorful, and we all ended up taking leftovers home. What stood out the most was the service. Our server was funny, knowledgeable, and gave fantastic recommendations. There's also plenty of free parking, which is always a plus. The only thing missing for me was that the décor doesn't quite match the authenticity and quality of the food, which deserves a bit more character in the atmosphere.

I came Wednesday night and asked did they have buffet. Tempe is my home city and their food…read morerestaurants are amazing. Various ethnic groups in Tempe provide a foodies dream. Tempe housed my go to Indian buffet on Rural and university for over 20 years and it closed. The other night picking up a marketplace find I passed this restaurant. I live in central Phoenix and pulled up my favorite app on the way home Yelp popped the restaurant in the app great reviews. Long work day Wednesday so stopped for dinner mind blown. Yup I'll be back for lunch. Saturday head for Lunch buffet the place is packed and the food was amazing. Nothing from the buffet was bad. Again if you see the ethnic culture eating there usually a good sign your taste buds are about to get very happy with your choice. My new Indian food spot & yes I drive 20 minutes to get here.

This is a neat family establishment. The mother is the chef and Khadija (forgive me if I botched…read morethe spelling) is the daughter and our server. They were so welcoming. I am still learning about middle eastern cuisine so the chef described some entrees. I told her about a Pakistani dish I really enjoyed and she made me a similar chicken dish that isn't even on the menu! What I love about middle eastern food is that it is so fragrant and a full scale sensory overload. It looks, smells and tastes all at once. Khadija was adorable and very outgoing. I was super impressed by the whole vibe. All of the other patrons were probably far more familiar with the cuisine, but we felt welcome and were so honored that they presented something off the menu for me. I plan to try the regular menu dishes next time. The naan is outstanding, too.

We have been here four separate times now, and it has become our go-to spot for Indian food. We…read morereally love Indian food and have tried other places, but none of them do it like this location. Every time we come, we end up ordering the same thing because it is just that good. We even joked about trying something new, but of course we ordered our usual again but we recently found out they have a buffet on Sundays, which is really nice if you want to try different dishes or expand your palate! The garlic naan is always a favorite, super savory and hard to stop eating. You can also choose the spice level for the masala. We finally tried the spiciest level, and I would say to be careful with that one. We would recommend medium instead. We are Hispanic and even for us the spiciest level was a little intense on our gastrointestinal system, but we still ate everything. If you want authentic Indian food with great spices, this is the place to go. It is usually pretty empty when we visit, which surprises us because the food is so good. We hope this place gets longer waits and we will definitely be eating here many more times.

Mental note to self, go down a level in heat to a 2 when ordering because they do it spicy! Their garlic naan was awesome, and the Chicken Tikka Masala was wonderful. The portion size was just right. The true winner however was the Tandoori chicken. We did a half order of it, and decided next time we would do a full order and an order of the Butter chicken to split. The waiters and owners were very attentive, and it was a pleasant atmosphere on the inside. Parking is a bit tight out front but there is plenty of parking out back.

Definitely coming back to the lunch special I came for dinner so it was a little bit more expensive than I thought.

Where Hospitality Has a Name -- and That Name is Nigel In a…read moreworld of automated greetings and absent managers, INDIBAR feels like a different era -- where a restaurant is not merely a transaction but a relationship. Owner Nigel Lobo moves through the dining room not like someone inspecting his domain, but like a gracious host welcoming friends into his home. But here is where he enters the realm of the legendary: he remembers. A month ago, a dessert was unavailable. Nigel came to our table personally, apologized, offered two complimentary desserts, and promised chai biskoot on the house next visit. Most people forget. Not Nigel. On April 17th he kept his word without being reminded. And when we mentioned mid-meal that we had forgotten to order panipuri -- not even complaining -- he smiled and sent out two plates on the house. The food is magnificent -- elevated, soulful Indian cuisine that is both traditional and modern. But what INDIBAR truly serves is the increasingly rare dish of being made to feel seen. Five stars feels insufficient.

We kept the decision fatigue out by picking Chef's special 4 course meal and loved every dish served. I do not eat sea food so the one's who eat may love it.

They do tend to run on the spicier side so I always get mild. Their portion sizes are on the small size but its a decent meal for one and I prefer quality over quantity. I have learned to always get my food to go. This is because the in person service is so slow, expect to be there for two hours even if there are only three other parties in the restaurant. The garlic gnann is good and the vegetable korma curry is a nice supplementation to the Tikka masala main dish.

I used to come here all the time but lately it's turned into a dive. Last night my boyfriend took…read moreme there to celebrate a special day. The language barrier with our server made it impossible to communicate. He was a kind man, but he was extremely slow with service. He rang us up for an expensive shrimp dinner that we didn't order and when my boyfriend pointed out that we didn't order it and our bill should be adjusted, he took the bill and then proceeded to bring it back unchanged. Then my boyfriend just gave him the card to check us out while I visited the ladies room. The stalls were so filthy, I've seen cleaner gas station restrooms. Repulsed, I just went back to the table while we waited an additional 30 minutes for our waiter to run the card, for the meal we were overpaying for. Never again. I will not ever return. What a nightmare.

We were very surprised we were the only ones dining but we were extremely well looked after and welcomed. This is a family run business and you can tell. The owners are very proud of the heritage and their cuisine. We let our server (Mrs Owner) choose our dishes and we loved every one of them. The restaurant is a large space which is tiled and glass, so could get noisy if the room was full of people but somehow I don't think that will be too much of an issue. This review is 2months after we are there so I can't remember exactly what we had, but it WAS good. We always support local family restaurants in Tempe. If you're looking good northern Indian cuisine, you can't go wrong.

But I wish I actually got the food I ordered. This is now the third time I've tried to get their carrot halwa. The first time was through delivery, the second time I even tried in-store, and now this third attempt was another delivery order. Each time, no luck. Fine, things run out, but it's a pattern, you don't have it. I ordered directly from their website, so I hoped the menu would be up to date. The third-party driver called to offer substitutions, which I appreciate, but it's still disappointing. And to top it off, they forgot the vegetables in my masala padpam. That was the part of the meal I was most excited about! So here I am, having spent around $80 total, with two items unavailable and a key part of another dish missing. The only reason this isn't a lower rating is because I do still really like the food. I just wish I actually got to enjoy what I ordered and yes, this could be resolved by going in so they could tell me before I order that they're out of items.
