We have catered few times from Royal Indian Cuisine but this time decided to dine for dinner!…read moreGot seated immediately and a nice Nepali waitress welcomed us! The vibe is nothing fancy just a simple dine in Desi restaurant with Indian music on the background. Our waitress served us some masala chai and Alu Tikki on the house. ( We figured this later when the bill came. Thank you it was a nice surprise.) Since it's a Nepali owned restaurant we asked them if they had Momo and they did! So we got the chicken steam Momo with Keema Naan and Chicken Hakka Noodles. The masala and spice was less with simple flavors like any Nepali household. It was like home cooked flavors. The food was fresh and came hot. I loved the noodles and naan. The Mo:Mo was okay, like any other Nepali restaurant they were frozen and steamed later! But the chutney did the magic for Mo:Mo. We got some extra chutney for to go! Would love to come back and try some curry and Naan items. If you like Indian food with minimal spice and solid flavors, give this place a try! We didn't feel bloated or anything that night so we knew the food quality of the food was good. Good luck.

I ended up getting their Mysore Masala Dosa and Dahi Samosa Chaat. The dosa was good but didn't really have that kick or the authentic flavor I was hoping for. The sambar was too watered for my taste. The samosa chaat however checker off all the flavor boxes. The chaat was tangy, but not too spicy and absolutely delish. They have a lot of seating that makes me think they probably get crowded on weekends and holidays.

They do fill up, so recommend to call in advance for reservations especially for larger groups. I made a reservation for 6 a week in advance with no issues, once there, they were fully booked for 7:30 dinner (one seating at sundown for Ramadan) and had to turn others away. Decent food for the price and some dishes had some spice to it! It was a bit chaotic though getting seated and a very tight space to walk around, as it's so popular during the Iftar, and lots of kids too. Limited waiter service - they gave us a jug of water that we had to ask for refill- and later someone came by to collect dirty plates.

It made my taste buds sing with a joy only Indian food can provide. I have eaten plenty of Indian food and this place is the real deal. I loved the black pepper chicken and the hakka was probably the best I have ever had. The smoke from the hot wok was captured right into the noodles. Incredible. Very clean and excellent service. I can't wait to try the buffet that is offered on Sunday. Please trust me on this one.

Newer spot to check out for us. It's in the back lot of…read moreRochester House. It is dead in here by 6pm. Oh my. It's cold in the dining area, not a big dining area. Nicely decorated, looks newer. Ordered dosa, samosa, Gobi Manchurian, chick pea salad, dal tadka and dal makhani, butter chicken, navratina korma, and Chana masala. $117.56 The Samosa, butter chicken and chick pea salad are all good. The samosa is maybe a bit too heavy and doughy. The potato and peas are mashed inside. The cilantro chutney is good, spicy too. Butter chicken is tasty. The chick pea salad is just fresh and yummy. Dosa was okay, not loving the tomato or coconut chutneys so much. Sambar soup is good. The dal makhani and Chana was not for either of us. Makhani is super buttery and runny. The Chana has a very unexpected taste and look, the sauce it's cooked in is quite brown here. The dal tadka, korma and Gobi were just okay. Both lentils are super runny. The korma isn't too bad. Their version has tofu in it. Sauce is good. Not a lot of veggies to it. Gobi was crispy, but their chili sauce is not so good. My husband usually favors the Chana masala, but he wasn't fond of their version so much. Would skip the Chana, Gobi and the dal makhani and maybe even the dal tadka next time. Service here is good.

Not only is the service friendly but the food is delicious here too! I enjoyed everything I ordered. I did find their medium spice level is on the milder side, so that might be something to keep in mind! One note I found odd: I was charged $1 for the bottled water already provided on the table. There was no mention of the charge before the bill or opt for free tap water offered. Anyway, this is the Indian food in downtown Berkley, so I'll be back when I'm in the area!
