For years I have complained about not having another Indian restaurant in town, especially one with a buffet. There was a bit of a wait to be seated but every new restaurant in Lakeland seems to be packed for the first few months after opening. I shared shrimp Manchurian, lamb samosas and garlic and peshwari nan with a friend who had the curry chicken and I had the chicken Madras. Everything was well-seasoned and delicious and I look forward to returning for the buffet. read more

The food is delicious. The ambience would be better if it wasn't so bright and the Baliwood wasn't so loud. But I love the food. The service is very good and attentive. read more

The coconut curry, rice, and naan bread are delicious! I can finally order something that my kids will share with me and eat as well

Less than an enjoyable experience here but not completely bad. My typical go to is the chicken tikka masala. The portion was adequate and came out in due time but the spice level was about a tongue toasting 8 out of 10. I'll take the hit on that one as I would assume a dish that didn't indicate such a high spice level would come out a little tamer. Not as flavorful as I am accustomed. If I come back I'd definitely opt for something different. When the water glass emptied (and I definitely needed water) there was no getting a refill so I finally ended up getting up and grabbing my own water. The garlic naan was good. I'd recommend it. The biggest issue was that I simply was no longer tended to once the order arrived. My recommendation is try something different than chicken tikka masala, be absolutely sure to let them know the spice level you want and get it to go. read more

The food is not mind blowing. Portions are extremely small comparatively. I ordered entree Malai Kofta and got three balls swimming in a 4" metal bowl. But most importantly they need to know how to properly run a restaurant and train staff accordingly. There were four of us for dinner. We had four different attendants to the table. The first person began taking the order and one of our friends ordered two appetizers as main course. The attendant's literally insisted that he understood that was an app and inquired what would be his main course. Embarrassing! Our full orders were sent. A second person came back in a few minutes and asked if we were not going to order appetizers. I was annoyed by then and just bluntly informed her our order was already been placed. The intent here is obviously to spend more! They started taking plates off the table before we weee finished. It was my first visit. Overall experience was so bothersome that I felt compelled to review the visit with hope that they change their approach. However, I won't return. read more

My new fav place to eat! Oh my gosh so delicious! Sag, Madras and tikka masala Nan : garlic, Chili and Peshwari Appetizer : Gobi manchurian read more

Good lunch buffet deal. Limited selection, but it changes from day to day. The staff is always pleasant and attentive.

Popped in for a first-time visit. Only open 11:00 to 2:30. We were the only patrons and received a prompt greeting. Upon recommendation, we ordered the Indian beer. Large bottle served two generously. Mild and refreshing taste. Lamb samosa appetizer was three big, tasty lamb, potato and pea deep fried pieces. Arrived nice and hot. Tamarind, onion, and mint sauces added to different taste preferences. Lamb mango curry, medium, was just right choice of spicy. Huge chunks of tender lamb had lovely flavor in the sauce. Chicken korma, mild, was also enjoyed. Again, large chunks of tender meat. Chicken broth yellow rice added good flavor. Ordered the garlic naan bread which arrived as three generous pieces...hot and crispy with just a hint of garlic. Service was attentive and helpful with our choices. Will have to return to try some of the other menu items that sounded interesting. read more

This restaurant is way down South Lakeland so I wasn't aware of its existence. But it was recommended by a neighbor so we went for a first visit a couple of days ago. Easy to find on South Florida Avenue and plenty of parking, We were greeted and seated immediately. The decor is modern, the seating is mostly booths, it is spacious and clean. The service is great and the waiter was very friendly. My friend was very happy to see so many vegan options on the menu. Our food arrived quickly, it was freshly cooked and hot and all items were delicious. It is probably the best Indian food I've had in the US. Portion size is good and it is reasonably priced. Great food, great service so a wonderful experience. Will definitely visit again. read more

What a great eating experience. Had the lamb chops and the taste explosion in my mouth was heavenly all of the dishes had its own flavor. Would highly recommend Curry Mango to anyone looking for something to enjoy that you WILL enjoy. Five thumbs on this one!!! read more

I love this restaurant and it's Definitely delicious. The lamb chops are so tender and favorable.

We had my husband's surprise 80th birthday party yesterday evening. There were 18 of us, and when we walked in, not only did our party say surprise, but the staff was lined up to greet him, and play happy birthday! The food there is always delicious, with generous portions, and very reasonably priced. The staff is very attentive, and they work together like a well oiled machine. They brought the cake out with lighted candles, with much fanfare, and sang happy birthday with us. There are not enough superlatives for me to describe our experience! read more

Absolutely delicious! Such a delight to have a delicious Indian restaurant in Lakeland! I went with my mother and we shared the Curry Mango Chicken Curry and the Kerala Chicken Curry. The atmosphere was great as was the service. I didn't take any pictures because I was too busy eating. Yum! read more

Butter chicken is delicious. We always get to go and is so good. Service is prompt and efficient

Been craving Indian food for weeks. Finally made it in. We had the buffet. The food was great, Large selection. The service was horrible. Place was not busy at all. Dirty plates from other tables were sat at our table. Every other table was checked on and given refills on drinks. We had to share our water as we were passed by. I like this place but this experience was enough to make me not want to come back. read more

Food is good. But service is iffy. Some days are great other days it's indifferent. So I stopped going there.i tip well so I want great service 100% of the time. read more

It was a good experience. The buffet had a good variety of dishes and a couple of different rices to choose from. The desserts were a nice addition. Overall it was a good place to eat and I would go here again. read more

I thought they were closed, didn't see a single car in the parking lot but as we walked in we were immediately greeted. There wasn't a single table in there, we were the only ones but we didn't mind. I had my eye on this place for a few months but never wanted to make the 30 minute drive, after eating here we will definitely be back. The flavor, the portions, the price. Everything was perfect! So so good, we even had so many leftovers to bring back home & my boyfriend couldn't believe just how good this food was! We will definitely be back! (Got all this food for $35)! read more

Prices up, portions down. Meals used to come with bread, now that has to be purchased separately. I understand prices increasing, but don't decrease portions and delete extras. read more

After serving in the Middle East for some time it's hard to find food that compares. This place definitely hits the mark!!! Highly recommend. read more

We love, curry mango! If you're not familiar with Indian cuisine, I would recommend visiting the buffet over the weekends! There are other items on the menu, which my family love however, it's hard to get away from the butter chicken and tikka masala, which are always a hit! I have celebrated my birthday here and ordered take out many times, I hope this restaurant continues to do well! read more

Service was attentive - didn't know what we wanted so waited a little for server to return. Mango martini was interesting. Like mango lassi with a kick. Great place! We had the Dal sag, Chicken Tikka and Garlic Naan. The spices were not overpowering - just the right amount of kick. All wonderful! read more

My wife and I have eaten at this place since they opened. They've been very consistent with quality and service. Prices of dishes and wine are reasonable. We're looking forward to the opening of the "Tampean" Curry Leaves restaurant soon to compare read more

The service is very fast. They see your plate almost empty and they are ready to take it away. However, they also see you cup of water low and they are ready to fill it back up. The servers are nice, some friendly, some timid. The meals were delicious. We had lamb samosas and 2 different entrees I do not recall the name but I will say it was very flavorful and satisfying. Although, I left full, the portion size was quite low. Overall, we'll be back! read more

Every option available including vegetarian and vegan as separate entrees. WOW !! The only word that comes to mind when trying to describe the flavor and texture profile. Great for a work lunch meeting or a quick 30 minute lunch break. read more

The food was amazing. The temperature of the food and the quality were way better than I expected. When we asked George what kind of sauce we were eating he could name every single natural ingredient. Everything was amazing, we can't wait to go back. read more

Great place to try this food for beginners. The service is amazing, the place is immaculate, and the food is terrific.

Very good chick mango curry. Had medium spice, wasn't that spicy at all. If u like spicy I would recommend getting the spicy. The medium spicy more of a mild. Overall delicious food. read more

We went for the buffet on Sunday. It was fantastic. No big but great. Not a bad thing there. Clean and courteous.

Let me start off by saying, the food was very good. On a scale out of 10, I'd give it an 8.5 without hesitancy. The reason for the 3 star review is the poor service. This was a take out order, so no comments on servers, but from walking in the ambiance seems to very clean, inviting and open. Now to the service, I ordered over $100 in food, between appetizers, meal, dessert, sides. I signed my receipt, left my 15% tip, and walked out. However I started thinking something was off when I read through receipt, and saw they charged me for an adult order of kid's meal, which was okay, but it was listed as spicy. I went back in and asked a hostess if the dish was indeed spicy, and she confirmed she reviewed. I asked if I could please swap it out for a kids version, because my 3 yr old couldn't handle the spice. Instead of making it easy, the owner argued with me if I was sure I asked for a kids meal, which I confirmed yes, even told him the cost, and what sides I wanted with the kids meal. He then started disputing with the hostess about the order, whom I didn't even place the order with originally, and after 5-10 minutes of this, he says I can pay for the additional item I want. I was very confused, but agreed because at this point I just wanted to leave and bring my family dinner. read more

Lots and lots of sauce , very little amount of actual food: (very little amount of vegetables, meat or chicken) . Despite asking for mild, the Biryani takeout was so spicy we couldn't eat it. Not even with a galón of water. We had to throw it out. The vegetable Korma was half a can of mixed vegetables ( you know the ones with small diced carrots, peas etc.) in a bucket of sauce. Very disappointing. Fresh vegetables like broccoli, carrots, mushrooms etc. are not that expensive. Even Chinese takeouts give you some! read more

First time here and first time with Indian cuisine. Portions were small, especially for the price. Flavor was good but samples of food in the group tasted the same. Nice setting and seemed authentic. Service was good. read more

Excellent food and service at a reasonable price. We have eaten here three times and will definitely be back. Lots of heat and spice in the food while not being overpowering. Servers are friendly and helpful. The menu has a ton of options and you can get the heat level to your taste. The Bollywood movies on the screen as you walk in are a fun touch. I definitely recommend this place if you are in the area, or come from farther out if you want an adventure. It's worth the trip. read more

Solid rice ban and chick vinduloo is gods way of taming arrogant Texans who think they know hot. I like a little sweaty heady when I eat my beddy yes I was ready if they letty m. Flavor was rich throughout my dish, the did grow, you need to know. The sauce was nicey and very spicy but the whole meal was not too pricey. Oh I ate it all just like a man 6 hours later I am in the can A double flush and triple wipe the Marsala kept coming not end in sight. Finally a sigh that the end would be near as peppers seeds brought razor tears. I jumped from the bowl to see what was the matter when I took a step I heard the great splatter. With force like a rocket and smoke from the reign I locked in the stirrups my oring in pain, the finally a creek and a crack then a split the lava was flowing like hit magma tar rolling down hill seek cold water it slowed and it steamed and folding in in itself when cool led I could see a silk screen of Stephen King and I knew IT was made from good Dairy. This place was Shining and my Mother Abigail would make some good Stu. Down there they all float and even Mr Marsten can't stop l knowing that they are going to laugh at you. read more
