    soup, Samosa, papadum
    Margaret T.

    4.5 stars. My son came here on a Tuesday afternoon. There was a very large group, but despite that, our 5-course lunch specials came out with 30 minutes. Although they don't have a lunch buffet like other another excellent Indian restaurant in the area, they do have a reasonably-priced ($12-14) lunch menu with about 6 different curries to choose from and your choice of meat, cheese, or vegetable. The lunch set comes with papadam and chutney, a samosa, naan, curry and rice, and rice pudding for dessert. The food was tasty, but the spice level was a tad on the hot side. I ordered mild, and it tasted medium to me, which was perfect. My son's medium-spice level was too much for me. If I'm ever beachside in Ormond again, I would go back.

    What a beautiful surprise in Ormond Beach! This place is absolutely stunning inside--modern, clean, and thoughtfully decorated. The dining area feels bright and welcoming, with elegant lighting and a fresh atmosphere (see photo). The food is Indian, and it really stands out as something unique for the Ormond Beach area. Fresh flavors, beautifully presented, and everything tasted authentic and carefully prepared. The mango lassi (in the photo) was smooth, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. Service was top-notch. The staff was professional, attentive, and very welcoming without being overbearing. It's clear they take pride in providing a great dining experience.

    Loved this place!! The lunch options were amazing! I had the butter chicken it had a nice slightly sweet cashew curry sauce and peppers. The lunch dish came with naan, a samosa, lentil soup and a dessert which was rice pudding that day! I'm also ordered a masala chai that was delicious. If you're down in ormond beach this place is a great stop!! Also my friend is gluten and dairy free and the staff was super helpful in checking with the kitchen and communicating which items would be safe for her. Decor is very nice all adding to a great dining experience

    Incredibly different Indian motif...quite modern with beautiful lighting. Lamb tandoori AMAZING! Chicken tandoor very yummy! Wait staff fantastic and very helpful. Does it sound like we liked it here? If anywhere nearby, I'd recommend you come here on your first night in town so that you can repeat your visit before leaving the area!

    It was mine and my boyfriend's first time trying Indian food and it was so delicious, I got the butter chicken and he got chicken biryani. I went for mild spice but definitely could have gone for medium and will next time!

    We went early, 5ish because we had the little ones. The service was very considerate and understanding. They happily divided the mango lassi into two cups and served each half in a lidded cup with a straw. The looks on those kids' faces when they tasted the lassi! I wish I could post them here. Anyhow the ambiance there is upscale, quite nice, but not snooty. There is booth and table seating and large parties can be accommodated. It appears that in nice weather there will be outdoor seating as well. The place settings were beautiful, with the flatware being especially remarkable. Plates were served appropriate to the course and cleared promptly. Beer (Kingfisher is my favorite) was served with a frosted mug. We started with the Manchurian cauliflower and the samosas. The samosas were freshly made, crispy on the outside and a title spicy on the inside. The kids enjoyed the crusts. The cauliflower was really good! The breading was very light and it was cooked perfectly. The portion was more than enough for the 4 of us adults to share. For entrees we got saag paneer, tikka masala chicken and the tandoori sampler. The sampler was a little chicken-heavy, but it arrived on a sizzling platter and was a great value at $28 for all that meat. The basil chicken was a little dry but the other dishes were all succulent. The tandoori chicken was exceptional. The shrimp I'd get again. The other adults loved the lamb and it was overcooked to me. But the seasonings were very nice. The saag paneer was saucy, with probably homemade paneer chunks. The tikka masala chicken was also excellent with tender chunks of chicken and lots of delicious sauce. Everything came with Basmati rice, another favorite of the kids. We got a double order of garlic naan and between the 6 of us (including kids) we almost finished it. The garlic naan was perfectly and freshly made, not greasy and not overly seasoned, just right. This restaurant has only been open a couple of weeks and they are off to a great start! Other diners were arriving as we were leaving and take out orders were being picked up. Imli, we will be back! Give them a try.

    Lamb vindaloo
    Carol W.

    Well, this is a gift to the Ormond Beach area!! The restaurant just opened a few days ago, which can sometimes be dicey, but they have their act together. A lovely restaurant, very clean, open, light & area; booths are very comfortable. (Check out the handles on the bathroom doors - attention to detail!!) Service was excellent! Avi was our waiter - very attentive, friendly & professional, and checked back often (but not too often) to see if we needed anything. Alexi and Raj (owner and chef) came by to see how everything was as well - nice! The food is AMAZING! Fresh, flavorful, beautifully spiced. We both had the lunch special, which includes lentil soup, entree, and appetizer and dessert of the day - todays appetizer was a lovely samosa and dessert was a tasty rice pudding. Hubs had the lamb vindaloo (spicy level) and I had paneer korma (between mild to medium spice). Lunch also comes with naan but we ordered garlic naan which we love - pillowy, fluffy, garlicky and not greasy - best naan I've had recently! All of the food was so good and we can't wait to come back and work our way through the menu.

    Mango lassi!

    A true Ormond Beach gem. A MUST try! The food is authentic and delicious. Their menu is easy to understand, even for first timers. Our go to is butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, paneer, lots of homemade naan and of course mango lassis. We were blown away with the quality and taste of this meal! The staff is exceptional and ready to ensure you have the best dining experience. Restaurant is spotless and well decorated. Can't wait to go back. Will definitely become a regular here with my family!

    Excellent food, and service! Perfect for a date night, or evening out with friends! The Phaal Goat was delicious, and so was the chicken Tika! (it was gone before I could remember to take a picture) Must try the pistachio Kulfi (Indian ice cream) refreshing and delicious. Great way to end the meal.

    Peshwari Naan (sweet with nut filling)

    I took my friend who was born in India and she absolutely LOVED IT! We were impressed by the tasteful decor and the cleanliness! Water was brought out in a pretty glass bottle. She ordered the Korma it was so good! I had the Butter Chicken it was amazing! Chicken was so tender and the sauce was perfection generous portions. We also had Garlic Naan and Peshawar Naan both very good. We couldn't leave without trying Kheer and Gulab Jamun. Honest assessment. I was hoping for a raisin or a piece of pistachio in the Kheer, but had good flavor! The Gulab Jumon needed to be hot. Service was excellent, kind and attentive. If you like Indian food. You absolutely need to try this place! Authentic and delicious! This place is a hidden gem! We'll be back!

    Food was OK. 1. Dal makhani was yummy…read more 2. Baigun bharta had lemony taste to it ( didn't taste that good ). 3. Masala dosa came with cold Sambhar, which they heat when told. Dishes come with rice on side. Ambiance is welcoming.

My family and I were a little skeptical because the parking lot was empty. I'm so glad we decided to still give it a try!!!! I said well let's look at it in a different light, that we got a whole restaurant to ourselves! The service and food were amazing from beginning to end!!! The flavors were so AMAZING!!!! The only thing that wasn't what we thought was the lychee martinis. There were no lychee's but the pour was strong. We ordered some mango juice and it made it good! All the food was fresh and flavorful. Everything came out hot. The best naan we've ever tasted. We had to order two baskets! Tried the chili fried corn! OMG we have never tasted anything like it. It's hard to explain! The vibe and decor is everything!! Me and my daughter were grooving in our chairs the whole time enjoying the food and their cultural music. We will definitely be back to support! We actually prayed for this business to be successful so we can try everything on the menu!! And before we left many people started coming in. Fine Indian dining!!!

He said it was great food, he is Indian, I'm American , but, you know, you have to find out for yourself, right? and I love Indian food. As we drove in from our phone order between St Augustine and Palm Coast we picked it up right on time.at 45 minutes. I just have to say...like the dad from "Every body loves Raymond" HOLY CRAP! Man it was awesome . So fresh, tasty, on time and very friendly staff!! We all loved it! Flavors were excellent, take out portions were good, enough to share. Bt 4 of us we split Bartha (spelling), Dahl, Tika Masala, n 4 samosa, and dessert, with leftovers. Long story short we ordered the same 2 days later, same service, same quality, same flavors, delicious!!!

    Fifth Element Indian Kitchen 1448 W International Speedway…read moreBlvd, Daytona Beach, FL 32114 I really wanted to like Fifth Element Indian Kitchen, but this visit was a complete letdown. We ordered the Thali expecting a well-rounded, flavorful Indian meal--but what arrived at the table was far from it. The food was served cold, which immediately set the tone. Naan, which should be soft, warm, and slightly crisp on the edges, was instead leathery and overly chewy, almost as if it had been sitting out far too long. The Thali was supposed to include chicken biryani and chicken curry, but both dishes missed the mark entirely. The chicken served was dark thigh meat, which in itself isn't an issue when cooked right--but here, it lacked any depth or proper preparation. More disappointing was the complete absence of flavor. Indian cuisine is known for its rich layers of spices and aromas, but everything on the plate felt bland and lifeless, as if the spices were an afterthought rather than the heart of the dish. Adding to the disappointment, the interior decor felt very dated and gloomy, lacking the warmth or vibrancy you'd hope for in a dining space. The bathrooms were also filthy, which only made the overall experience worse. Having dined at several Indian restaurants, we know what a good Thali should taste like--balanced, vibrant, and satisfying. This was none of that. It felt rushed, poorly executed, and lacking the care that defines authentic Indian cooking. Unfortunately, this experience was disappointing enough that we won't be returning.
