Recommended a couple of items for my wife, myself, and both our kids. Hospitable? One of the staff brought us a sample plate to ensure that our palate would be able to handle the spice. Someone, please tell me what other restaurant has taken the initiative to do this for their customers? The naan was soft and made beautifully. The Tikka Masala and the chicken Makhani were made with such tender chicken covered in flavorful sauces and served with a side of rice and choices of naan (we picked the garlic naan and it was delicious). My wife and I are so excited to come back!

Happy to see this addition in Gilbert! We had been going to Curry Corner for years in Tempe before…read morewe moved further away. They have a pretty straight forward Indian food menu with the traditional non-vegetarian and vegetarian curries, biryani, etc. The first time my husband and I dined here, we got the tikka masala fries appetizer and a vegetarian & a non-vegetarian thali. The fries were okay, but could've been fried crispier so they wouldn't have gotten as soggy with the tikka masala sauce. The thali items were good too. Of all the dishes, the Chicken Makhani was my favorite. This was pretty much all I had gotten in Tempe so I was excited that the flavors were still there. I also like that they offer the choice of naan or rice with all their curry dishes. They have plenty of seating. Service was slower when we went but they were new, so hopefully just working out the kinks. If you're in the area, stop by!

I was looking for some quick Indian food and saw this place on Yelp. It was empty when I arrived,…read morebut it was a bit early for lunch on a Saturday. While I was there, it started to fill up and there were quite a few food delivery service drivers picking up orders. That's a good sign. I imagine this food is well suited for takeout. The place is on the small side but clean and well-lit. I ordered a bowl with rice and naan at the counter and pulled a rose lassi from the case. I had paneer with spinach masala and a side of Shack Naan (topped with garlic, cilantro and cheese!!!). My food arrived quickly and was hot (temperature). No complaints. The paneer was firm and the masala had a good texture and depth of flavor. The house spice level wasn't really spicy at all for this dish, but I wanted a baseline. Some Indian places start on the high end and only get painful from there. That's not the case here; I'll definitely go Hot next time. My food disappeared nearly as fast as it showed up... I will be back, even if just for some Shack Naan to snack on.

I would likely go mild next time... it be like that sometimes! Service was quick and we were all happy with our meals! Great for takeout too, I'm sure! :-)

I have had a lot of Indian food, and this is still some of my favorite in Arizona. My go-to order here is usually between the malai kofta, shahi paneer, lamb korma (please try this), and the chicken 65. I find medium spice to be the perfect level of heat. The depth of flavor in their curries are incredible. The shahi paneer in particular is a great example of how precise their process must be. You can genuinely taste the combination of every spice used, and it feels like they used the perfect ratio. There are so many different notes of flavor and not a single one seems to be drowning out the other. The same can even be said about the chicken 65, but the curry is where this really shines. Also they've been really good about their rice, it was the perfect texture the last few times we've been. I can't comment on the service in-restaurant since my girlfriend and I are the kind of people to get takeout and watch a movie, but I will say the carryout ordering process has gotten significantly smoother. Ordering on the phone seems to be the way to go, and I have not had any of my orders messed up. I have had a couple times where I was awkwardly waiting for someone to be ready to help me get my order, but the wait time has generally been WAY better (like literal seconds), and staff are friendlier. Overall I would probably give a 4.5. Due to how good it is, and more importantly, how *consistently* good it's been, we've pretty much gone here every time we want Indian.

When the young gentleman came to our table, we could barely hear him as he was talking low & mumbling. When we told him we were not there for the buffet, he seemed disappointed, almost as if he was thinking "now I have to do more work". We ordered from the menu, doing our best to listen & understand what he was saying / mumbling. This go visit we ordered a couple different samosas, gotta have me some naan!, chicken biryani, chicken mugulai soup, and some lassi drinks. The mango lassi was def the better one, the other was too salty. For dessert we ordered the kheer & rasmalai. The food was still good, but the service was ... well, it could have been much better. Not just the quiet, mumbling server, but having the dirty empty dishes (that we piled up on the corner of the table) sit there for far too long. And no, at that time of day, it was not full of patrons. Of the few others that were in there, they were all eating from the buffet; they didn't need a lot of service.

This is restaurant week in the area from 5/15/26 to 5/24/26. We had the prix fix menu and it was outstanding as usual. The atmosphere definitely says Fine Dining. The service is excellent and our server, Angelica, was no exception to the many great servers we have met over the years. Her passionate input on our selections was extremely helpful. They have a full bar. On this trip, the $44 steal of a price included 3 courses and a side of rice or naan. We started with the Bhelpuri Avocado which is like a mix of puffed rice and avocado. The contrast of the crispy rice and flavorful and creamy avocado was a server suggestion and I am thrilled she did. The table next to us was also vocally registering their excitement with the dish. My wife went with the Parsi Lamb Keema which is like having the popular street food, Pav Bahji with a fantastically flavorful lamb stew with just the right amount of heat, served with buns like sliders. For the main courses we had the ever popular and best ever Butter Chicken made even more enjoyable with a dip of the Garlic Naan made fresh in house to order. Super tender naan. I went with the other server suggestion of Fish Curry which was an incredible mix of very crisp exterior yet moist interior sea bass swimming in a delicious curry. Never ordered before but again, thank you Angelica. Finally desert was the Gulab Jamon Cheesecake. Unique and very tasty ending to a fantastic meal. Even if you missed restaurant week, this is a must visit place for foodies.

We loved the plates and the serving dishes because of the charm we thought they had. Now they use these more American looking serving dishes that are just a huge bummer and look stale. But the reason why we came was because of the flavor, the seasoning was delicious. Now it tastes watered down. Like there is less cumin and a few other spices? Perhaps. Our favorite dish was the gobi Manchurian, we used to come because of how good it used to be. Now even that has lost its flavor. Even the cauliflower that was used today looked sad and watered down. With the prices that have gone up dramatically, the food losing its flavor, and the charm gone from the serving dishes I'm sad to say we won't come back. We were okay paying even double if it was just the same as before. Now you could NOT even pay me to eat here. I want to add that I think their customer service is great, the staff is always friendly, so it has nothing to do with that. Just the changes someone chose to make. My family and I are really sad because we feel like we've lost our favorite restaurant and now we have to find a new place. I hope everyone else enjoys the changes because we do not.

So when I say this place is the best, that means something. After 8 years of exploring Indian restaurants all across the Valley -- Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa -- Flavors of India consistently stands out above the rest. As a vegetarian, bold and complex flavors are everything to me. Without meat, you really need a kitchen that knows how to layer spices and build depth, and this place delivers every single time. The food is fresh, the flavors are rich and satisfying, the customer service is warm and attentive, and the prices are absolutely fair for the quality you're getting. This is my go-to, and it should be yours too. Hands down the best Indian food in the East Valley. I love the ambience. They're very welcoming and always clean.

Just be careful -- the heat builds up slowly, so if you're not used to spicy food, go lower on the scale!

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.

After my most recent visit, I don't think I'll be back. We went about an hour after they opened, and the buffet was already in bad shape. The chicken tikka masala tray was practically empty, and we had to fish around just to find a few small pieces of chicken. The rice was hard, like it had been sitting for a long time instead of being freshly made. They also got rid of the carrot dessert that used to be on the buffet (one of my favorites), so even the selection isn't the same anymore. The drinks and desserts were just as disappointing. The mango lassi was chunky and weird instead of smooth and creamy, and the rice pudding was so thin and liquidy it was almost like sweet milk. The only good thing was the naan bread, which was still warm and tasted fine. The staff has completely changed too. The younger guy with the beard and turban who used to be there is gone, and now it's a bunch of older guys who don't seem to know what they're doing. They weren't outright rude, but they seemed confused and not very engaged, and the buffet clearly wasn't being watched or refilled properly. This is not the India Oven I remember.

Everything was so subtle, home made, not too much of butter or cream and unwantedly rich. Indian cuisine has changed a lot in the recent years coz People started using too much of cream and butter and food coloring unnecessarily just to enhance the taste and the visual treat. Well here is the truth- it has become the most unhealthiest of all. Well this place is not gonna be finger licking good ddddelicious Coz it's totally purely simple and homemade. A good meal and you won't feel burping and feeling bloated for the whole day after that meal in an Indian restaurant. If you want finger licking this ain't the place. Bhel puri had so much layers of flavors Bursting thru the mouth Thali, naan and Panner gravy was good Naan was really soft. I am big time chaat fan of the place called little India. However the quality has gone down there. This is my new favorite going forward. All the best to the new owners. Wishing you guys good luck and success and hope you stay the same for years to come!
