Harshil, the general manager, was extremely accommodating and helped us pick out items for the buffet. We had a whole section to ourselves and the vibes were great because DJ Seventh Aspect was spinning everything from Reggaeton to Bollywood to Bhangra, and he played my requested songs. The food was absolutely delicious! We did Fish Pakora, Fish 65, and Samosa Chaat for the appetizers. For the main course, we did Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Curry, Eggplant Bharta , and Amritsari Chole. I had a very diverse group and everyone LOVED the food. The fish pakora and 65 were a big hit, as was the chicken because it was very tender. The whole night couldn't have gone smoother. Big thanks to Amar and Jesse, the owners, for always being gracious and wonderful. Next time I'm going to throw an even bigger party here!

Visited this place with family and was quite disappointed. For the prices they asked for the food,…read moreI expect, at the very least: - naan bread to be prtoperly baked, not contain literal raw dough in the middle - rice to be of correct type and cooked properly, not be a mushy mess - waiters to be knowledgeable about the menu, not just reading it back to me when asked a question - waiters to be dressed appropriately, in uniform, not with jeans hanging from their a** like the guy who was serving us - have some tasteful music on the background, not being blasted with some questionable indian hip-hop ...or charge less. Will return out of sheer curiosity sometime this summer and try ordering the same dishes I had last time. If the Chak De gets their stuff together and makes improvements, I will update my review accordingly.

While the exterior looked inviting, the experience of having gone to…read more Eat here was then less exciting. I'd hoped to have exceptional conversations with my servers about the Indian cuisine I enjoy, and to see what they offer as specials- moreover, what they like or what other guests seem to make popular ... you know, "specials?" or Server suggestions? There was sadly no such interaction. The servers simply "just passed the time" while I ate very basic, unenthusiastic Indian fare, at one end of the restaurant-- while sat directly facing me chatting boringly with oneanother at the opposite end of the restaraunt facing me (so not FENG SHUI!) they sat at the other end in the heat (they really need to improve the AC UNIT at this location! It was much too hot in there). The staff was incredibly unenthusiastic, and the "experience" of eating here was definitely less than hoped for. Both the experience and the food need to be consciously "spiced up."

The Vegetarian Biryani was aromatic and satisfying, and the Naan was fresh and perfectly baked. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome throughout our visit. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had a pleasant atmosphere for families. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning soon.

Between 3 and 4 stars. The parking lot is easy to get around. I didn't see anything on the website,…read moreyelp reviews, or photos to indicate there'd be a lunch buffet, but when I got there, there was indeed a lunch buffet occurring, for $18.99/person. The set up is a little odd. There are maybe 4-5 tables total, and one was being used as a workspace on the right when I came in. All of the plates, utensils, and cups were disposable. paper plates. plastic utensils. The food itself was above average, taste-wise, and the garlic naan was also above average. I had my usual of rice, chicken tikka masala, and sag paneer, and all were good, but just a bit bland, which normally would not be an issue, but there were absolutely no condiments or spices visible with which to customize one's food. There also wasn't any yogurt to speak of, so while the food was good, it was all of a similar consistency, a lot of curries, without anything fresh to juxtapose with it. The employees were very friendly, with one lady asking us a few times if we needed anything else, and at one point, taking my paper plate and saying I could get myself a new one, but it was a little strange that the whole time we were there, there were only two other people eating by themselves, and everyone else who came in seemed to be friends or family, talking to everyone, hugging, going into the kitchen, and then just chatting at a table by the door. It very much seemed like a family business, but more family than business. I felt like I was at a friend's kid's birthday and had arrived late, and was eating in the back on a folding table while everyone else chit chatted. I think this experience would have been better if the buffet was better advertised/promoted, if there were spices and yogurt, and if there were fewer non-customers present. Still, I'd probably go again.

Our first visit to Cardamom definitely won't be our last…read more I've driven past Cardamom countless times, but today I finally stopped in for lunch--and I'm so glad I did. We ordered the lunch special with the Chicken Butter Makhani (Butter Chicken), and everything on the plate was excellent. The butter chicken was rich, flavorful, and incredibly tender. The fresh naan, basmati rice, salad, and dal all came together to make an outstanding lunch, and the portion size was perfect. One of the highlights was trying a Mango Lassi for the very first time. Somehow I'd never had one before, and now I completely understand why people love them. I'm officially a fan. A special thank you to Mohammed, who took great care of us. He was welcoming, answered our questions, recommended some favorites, and made our first experience feel comfortable from the moment we walked in. If you're in Montrose or Glendale and have been thinking about trying Cardamom, don't wait as long as we did. We'll definitely be back to work our way through the menu. Highly recommended!

First time here and last time here sadly. We really wanted…read moreto like this place it had been in my saved list for awhile. When we arrived we were seated quickly. There was only 6 people there, we made our way to the buffet to find out that everything was pretty much empty, there was no rice and only a few pieces of chicken for the curry and butter chicken. I was able to make two small plates for my wife and I. We had to ask for naan bread twice while the other table got served theirs no problem. We also didn't know we had to serve our own water which wasn't a problem but it would be nice to be told how their buffet is ran. We waited for more food to be replenished while others walked in and asked the same question only to be told "it's coming" smh. We had one more small plate each but then left. It wasn't $20 worth but still paid and left, I wish this place the best but we will go elsewhere.
