    There food is good but service is still pretty slow, takes forever to bring out food. I've uploaded the new menu with price range which they should've done it for online orders.

    I took the family to this restaurant and we loved it it's so tasty flavoreds are amazing

    60. Saag Paneer 74. Butter Chicken
    Cariss M.

    This was my first time dining here. Not sure if it was good enough to go back. There are other Indian restaurants in Turlock that I've had better experiences. The mango lassi was on the thinner side. (I've had some at places where it was thick like a milkshake.). It had decent flavor. Not too sweet. The garlic naan was the standout. Very flavorful and perfectly cooked. The butter chicken was just ok. It lacked flavor compared to others I've had. The saag paneer was bland bland bland! Even the cheese had no flavor. The green was vibrant and beautiful, but the flavor did not live up to the color. I wound NOT order this again. The rice was cooked perfectly. I tried some of my friend's momos. The dumplings were very good. The sauce they served with it was spicy but not too intense. It was served cold though and it was weird to me to dip hot dumplings in a cold sauce. She also got a dish that was very onion forward. It was probably the best dish we had as far as flavor. The service was practically non-existent. Waited quite a while between being given menus and water for them to take our order. It took about 20 minutes for our food and they brought everything at once (appetizers, sides, and main dishes). Last to arrive was my friend's chai tea which should have come with my beverage. And then after giving her the tea and asking if we needed anything at that moment- they never came back to our table. We had to go up to the counter to flag someone down and ask for to go boxes. Then, it finally became evident that you had to go up to the register to pay. We didn't know and sat there waiting for our check. It wasn't until we saw someone else from another table go up to pay that we went up ourselves. When I'm craving Indian food, I want depth of flavor and those amazing spices in the curries and sauces. This food just missed the mark. It want bad, but it left something to be desired.

    The food and service were really good! We got take out so we had to wait around 25 minutes for our food. I got the mushroom tikka and chicken momos and my sister got the pav bhaji. This restaurant might be one of the few that serve Indian style momos in this area (aka dumplings)!

    The butter chicken was okay. Not as flavorful as the larger Indian restaurant in town. I also paid for cheese naan but received plain.

    Well, I wanted to try something new and I can say, it was a new experience…read more Let's start off with Service. Room for improvement for sure. I've never had a waiter answer a call mid way from ordering. I found it odd but after a while, it made sense. I think a bulk of their business comes from takeout orders since I was the only there dining in. No water refill even after giving eye contact (awkward) Now for the food. I ordered momos as an appetizer, garlic naan, chicken tikki masala w/rice and aloo golbi. The food was great. I loved that some of their non- veg dishes automatically come with rice rather to have order it separately. The moms were the only thing I found to be dreadful. Way too much cumin added and the sauces were questionable. It came with ketchup and ranch and I thought it came with some sort of Asian sauce like a sesame sauce or ginger chili. Other than that, would I dine in again? No. I would just stick to doing takeout. Price was reasonable too.

    This is a great little family restaurant. We ordered butter chicken, garlic naan, and tandoori…read morechicken. Excellent flavors. The rice is fragrant and delicious. The butter chicken was the star: full of flavors, very mild heat, creamy and very fulfilling. I read the negative reviews on Yelp and can only say we were very happy with our whole meal and experience. Fresh Indian food is not fast food and if you frequent any of the local restaurants, you are already prepared for it to take a minute. We will definitely return and try other dishes as well.

Pepperoni pizza was ok, nothing spectacular. The other pizza was delicious! So much flavor! If you enjoy Indian food you have to try TP. I would definitely return. I highly recommend TP if you're wanting to try something different. Best pizza in town!

    We went to the lunch buffet. It's a good deal. It's $10.99 without a drink and $11.99 with a drink…read more Buffet comes with a salad bar and Pizza bar. The day we arrived there were two small (10 inch pizzas out). One was pepperoni. This was disappointing since we went here to try tandoori pizza. We know what pepperoni pizza taste like. The salad bar was limited and the carrots were not fresh. You could tell that they were old because they were not orange. They were mostly white. You know, what they look like when you've had them in the refrigerator too long. The lady that helped us put in an order for an additional Pizza. It took about 20 minutes for that to be cooked and put into the pizza bar. Again, the reason you eat at a buffet is for convenience and speed (get in and out). One of the people in our party does not eat pizza. That person ordered two orders of chicken wings. They ate the first ones and they were tasty. When the person bite into the second order of wings, they were cold. They were cooked, but they were cold. Cold like in just out of the refrigerator cold. Very unappealing. 6 wings cost $11.95. We went and told the lady that the wings were cold. She asked what other flavor we would like and we gave her flavor. We waited about 15 to 20 minutes and she came out with one wing. They come in an order of six..we returned six. I'm not quite sure what she wanted us to do. Anyway, we ended up asking for our money back for the six wings because we were given one wing but turned back six cold wings. We not offered the other five. It was odd. So, with the lack of Pizza choices, the white carrots, and the cold wings we will not be back. There were some good moments. The lady working was very pleasant. She seemed to be doing it all because after we ordered, she disappeared into the kitchen. The restaurant was very clean. Even the windowsills were clean. They had several TVs with different things on (TV cartoons, below deck, and a car race). You paid an extra dollar for soda and it was unlimited soda. The tandoori pizza was delicious. And because there was nobody in the restaurant parking was good.

    We truly enjoy coming here, love the convenience of close to home and they are quick with cooking…read moretimes. Everything we have gotten has been wonderful, our last visit stuck out the most. Usually we take it home but we sat out front and got wonderful family style service from the cook/staff. They even brought us out some Gulab Jamun for dessert. We asked for spice level 12 (not on the menu) and they cane through for us. Didn't loose the flavor and had such a wonderful enjoyable spice.

However, what sounded great on paper didn't quite translate in reality. We placed an order over the phone and saw that the truck was listed as being in Manteca, about a 25-minute drive from us. But when we arrived at the given address, the truck was nowhere to be found. A quick call revealed that they had actually moved to Modesto nearly three months ago--something that was not updated on Yelp. So, after an unexpected road trip across the Central Valley, we finally got our takeout. We ordered chole bhature and aloo tikki chaat. While the chole bhature had good flavor, the aloo tikki chaat was a huge letdown--it tasted like it was made with packaged hash browns rather than fresh aloo tikkis. On the bright side, the staff was kind, and the person at the counter generously offered a free mango lassi, which was much appreciated. I really wanted to love this place--the idea of Punjabi street food is exciting--but after this experience, I'm not sure if I'd make the trip again.

From what I understand, they had some building issues they were working through, and then their landlord passed away.

They've added a lunch buffet, there's a lot more seating, and the new space looks really nice while still having that familiar feel. Sean got his usual chicken tikka masala, and I decided to try the veggie tikka masala this time. Both were absolutely excellent...packed with that rich, delicious Indian flavor we love. We also got the garlic naan, and everyone at the table enjoyed the whole meal. We're so happy they're back! If you love Indian food, definitely give Taste of Himalaya a try. We'll be back every time we're in town!
