Steve S.

I had been a long time regular here under the previous ownership. Admittedly I hadn't been back in years. Mostly the pandemic took me away from here and I just hadn't returned. Plus hearing some people say the food had become inconsistent made me hesitate. But reading up on it today and learning about the new owner, it was time to see if they could win me back. They have. Compared to what I used to get here on the buffet, the tandoori chicken now seems to have more flavor. More of it is definitely hotter spice, but I did notice a fruity tang as well. I'm not complaining. I used to eat the tandoori chicken here regularly and I consider this upgraded. The vegetable pakora stood out. That dish definitely improved. It had a great crispiness and robust seasoning without being too overpowering. That got a second helping. I used to eat the pakora here all the time and I'd pick this over what I used to get. The paneer makhani tasted more like a korma sauce to me. It was more cream-based than tomato. I'm good with that because I love korma. You may judge accordingly. The chicken tikka masala was a little more basic to me. But it's a basic dish in general. Nothing really wrong with it, but it wouldn't be memorable to experienced Indian food lovers. The mango lassi used to be a little thin and more sweet than fruity. Now it's thicker and more of a mango taste. Upgrade. I also used to love the kheer here. Somehow I think I love it more now. Another upgrade. My taste for Indian has evolved over the years. I've just eaten it a lot and I've tried a lot more local places. There are places that are serving more authentic food out there. This is still slightly tailored to more novice eaters I believe. It always was in my mind. But that's not a bad thing. They're back in my Indian rotation.

Nice Indian buffet in the area! I believe it's $15.99 Tuesdays-Thursdays and then $17.99 the other days. It is definitely fairly priced for what you're getting/what the buffet has to offer. There is hot food along with a cold bar of fruits and salad. The service was nice and fast. The inside was clean and they had nice ambient music playing.

What a great surprise this place was. Stumbled upon it when going to the pinball game room and put it on my list to go back to and I'm sure glad I did. The food is so good! Perfect spice, perfect flavor and perfect portion sizes. We had the appetizer sampler platter, chicken curry, chicken tikka masala and chicken biryani. The server first bought us a salad and a plate of pita. The salad was interesting, some veggies with what tasted like ranch dip in the center of the plate. The complimentary pita is so good. I've never been to an Indian restaurant that offers free pita. We were the only people in the restaurant surprised by that because I heard another family call the server over to let her know they hadn't ordered pita. We started with the Himalayan special appetizer. I enjoyed everything on it, but one thing that looked like battered and fried paneer. Not sure what it was, but just left that on the plate. Next we had the chicken curry, chicken tikka masala and the chicken biryani. The server asked what spice level and I was hesitant to say medium, because I've been at other restaurants that lessened the spice level and then it seemed like the flavor was just too bland. Not the case here. Not too spicy and still very flavorful. Oh yeah, we also had the garlic naan. So, so good! Their naan is light and delicate. Haven't had naan like that before or nearly as good. There was just one server, but she was attentive. Plus, it's a BYOB. We had enough food for left overs the next day and it all was just as good reheated. I'll be back again and again!

"Another Indian rest .. nothing special except their hospitality" Shifted to Pa last month and was eager to try Indian buffet. So far, I found cinnamon from Nj Is best one in this business Anyway. the ambiance was good. Staffs were courteous, but buffet it was not that good. Not many options in nonveg appetizers. drumstick was a total fail in starters, coloured in red (to the owner- mixing red color will not make it kabab or tandoori) Similarly not many options in the main course, Chicken tikka masala (which only Americans ll like) and one mutton entree. There was fish biryani which was more like pulav with fried fish pieces. Kadhi pakora, desserts (4-5 options), stuffed paratha and mango juice. I liked it Overall 5.5/10

Bhej puri ordered and got the stapler pin for FREE!! Luckily, I survived. Woohooo!!

CAUTION FOR THE FOOD LOVERS!! I will not write a lengthy post or anything. I posted a photograph of what I received when I ordered bhel puri. There was a stapler pin which I had almost swallowed, luckily I found it in my mouth. I was saved from a total disaster! Be cautious, if you choose to go to this place.

Buffet is good. Food could be hotter in temperature. Having to wait your own dishes is annoying.

One of the few places that are open late, after 9pm. So when we picked this after a long moving day…read morepain, I was not expecting too much. The external facade and parking didn't give me much confidence. However overall experience turned out to be great! Since it was close to 9pm when we entered, only couple of more tables were occupied. Menu was mix of north and South Indian food and we were not sure which way we should go. All were tired after a day of moving stuff and we decided to get Chana Masala and (forgot the name) pepper chicken. All entrees come with rice, so we ordered only couple of more garlic naans. Whole order was sufficient for 4 of us. Chana masala was South Indian style but was freshly made and tasty. Peeper chicken was cooked to perfection and was spicy, with a punch. The taste was unique. Best part was naan. Chef had prepared it fresh and was fluffy. I will even go back just for naans. Definitely worth a visit every time we are in neighborhood.

We have eaten at the restaurant for years now and my 2 year old loves their Dosa!! All the items we had in our menu were delicious... My personal favorites were the Apollo fish and the Malabar shrimp... The service was very very good.. Mr Amar was super helpful with all our requests and needs... With 2 little babies hosting an event there was so comfortable and wholesome due to their very friendly service and mouth watering food... Looking forward to hosting more parties there in the future...

I love Indian food. I married into an Indian family so I had better love it…read more Sometimes when I get Indian food for lunch at work, my wife gets jealous that I ate it without her. But when I tell her about this place, I'm guessing she might not care as much. I've been wanting to try it for a while. Today I rolled the dice. And I'd say my experience was decidedly mixed. Basically, the samosa was excellent. Knowing her she'd love that. The Gobi Manchurian, one of my favorite dishes, was decent but I've had better flavors elsewhere. But I'm not complaining about it. Knowing her, she'd say it was OK at best. The Chicken 65, another of my favorites, is something I'm complaining about. The flavor was just way off. All I could taste was hot spice and lemon, and nothing else. Knowing her, she'd want to throw it out. I ordered it mild, but a lot of places where I do that it doesn't affect the other flavors. Maybe it does here. I will say they had a pretty decent mango lassi. So a couple things kept me from making this review worse. I'd come back here if I craved a good samosa and lassi as a snack. It's hard for me to try anything else past that now.

Me too agree. Not sure why overall ratings so low…read more Excellent flavors. This is what I imagine more authentic Indian cooking unmodified or refined for Western tastes might taste like. Just delicious. Warning: heat is as advertised. So even medium is above average spicy for Western tongues, I think. This I MUST underline. I don't want you to be disappointed. Mild spicy is probably acceptable for most Western tastes unaccustomed to really spicy food. Korma was good. Bread was acceptable. Online, they use Clover and I tried but it failed, had to phone in the order. Menu a little confusing. Large number of offerings welcome but just a bit overwhelming. Clover and website / paper menus may also not be exactly the same. Website and paper menus list Southern Indians dishes like Dosa which I could not find on Clover. Tried a dish I had never tasted, Karvepaku Paneer, a curry and chili / pepper flavored dish, and it was good. Expect a lot of heat, like real Szechuan cuisine. Found it on the Clover menu but could not find it on the paper menu. Oh and they do kebabs too. Excited to try this place again in the near future. Apparently this is a chain.

Indian restaurants are usually a hit or miss but this one is worth the try! We got the Boneless…read moreChicken Biriyani (mild spicy), Chicken Lollipop, and Mango Lassi. The Biriyani was well spiced but a little salty, nevertheless it was tasty. I've gotten it in medium spice before and I'd suggest getting it so, if you're someone who can handle spice- the flavor are stronger and it's more tastier when it's more spicy. The Chicken Lollipop was good and it came with a green sauce which complimented the Lollipops. Finally the Mango Lassi was chilled and sweet- not overly sweet, which is perfect. The service was adequate and so was the atmosphere.
