The chef even speaks in pahari Hindi and mentioned they don't use red chili for spice, but rely on actual garam masala. The chole bhature was unmistakably North Indian dhaba style--extra spicy, just like I ordered. Devoured within minutes, yet somehow it transported me years back--to sitting on a charpai, enjoying a roadside meal in quintessential dhabaas.

My favorites were the Dal Bukhara and Butter Chicken. I appreciated the clear labeling at the buffet, I always knew exactly what I was putting on my plate. Nothing was overly spicy, but the seasoning and flavor on every dish were great. I also loved that they bring fresh naan to your table instead of letting it sit out at the buffet (where it can get stale or overcooked). The lunch buffet was about $22 per person, pre-tip, on a Sunday. Well worth the price! Our server was fantastic. He even pointed out that they have separate street food dishes included with the buffet (not just what's on the main line). The Kurkuri Aloo Tikki Chaat (potato cake) was delicious! I wish I'd tried their lunch buffet sooner. It's excellent, and I live so close!

We paired dinner with the Dragonita and Smoky Hollow cocktails--both tequila based and absolutely delicious. One thing I appreciated was the thoughtful layout.

It was packed for Friday evening with consistent footfalls as well as takeouts. The service was slow to begin with, as well had to call the server to our table.

The biryani was tasty and the Rogan Josh had tender meat as well. The kids enjoyed the pista kulfi and the mango rasmalai which had just the right amount of sweet. Overall, good place to try.

Biryani? More like Mango Masala Mystery…read more Walked into Indian Bawarchi in Apex expecting biryani... walked out questioning my life choices. Ordered the boneless chicken biryani--was it Hyderabadi? North Indian? Nope. It was something entirely new: Sour Surprise Biryani, featuring what felt like a handful of amchur (dried mango powder) and a complete lack of actual biryani flavor. I'm convinced someone in the kitchen confused the spice rack with the candy shelf. Tandoori appetizer? Sizzling, yes. Memorable? Meh. Garlic naan was decent--if only naan could carry the whole meal on its doughy shoulders. Service: 3/5 Two waiters, two tables, one manager--sounds promising, right? Not really. We had to remind them we ordered biryani (you know, the main dish). "Oh, you ordered biryani?" Yes, my guy. That's kind of the whole point. Also had to clear our own table like it was a self-service picnic. Ambience: 4/5 Nice space, clean, decent vibe. Sadly, ambience doesn't come with a side of flavor. Total bill: $50 for a biryani, tandoori chicken, naan, and lime soda. Felt more like a fine-dine price for a college cafeteria meal. Verdict: Come for the naan, stay for... well, maybe just the naan. Biryani fans, enter at your own risk.

But I still saw fit to buy a dish as a single, a South Indian stew I hadn't seen before with tons of spices and a mix of dried berries. It was pretty out there, but the distinctive tangy and spicy combination that often comes with Tamil cuisine was much appreciated. My dal came with gongura leaves, a distinct and bitter vegetable that is probably good for you and does make for an interesting flavor in combination. Despite being billed as a two for one, my overall price to portion size on this order was okay but not great; the price for that one dal was high enough to make it so. While waiting, I saw some shakes in a fridge with some low-quality ice cream stored behind them, and was glad I didn't indulge, as I'd expect either something local or something imported. The quality of some of their core food items I suspect is higher. Most people were getting takeout, although there was a substantial dining area, one which could have been cleaner.
