The wonderful buffet at the Indian Bistro on Fridays and Saturdays. Everything was delicious. Exceeded expectations!

The Indian Bistro on Ohio Pike near I-275 is a small, laid back casual restaurant run by some very pleasant people. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for their lunch buffet and found the restaurant very clean and bright inside. (So, my dear readers, just ignore the review below that will tell you otherwise.) This was a very nice dining experience. The buffet had a lot of Indian food options and our group probably sampled most of them. Virtually every type of food offered was top drawer....delicious. I would argue that the naan was the only item I experienced that was not excellent but merely fairly good. Everyone in our party left feeling full and well pleased. Rate our dining experience this afternoon around Four and a Quarter Stars...meaning very good. Loved it.

I never realized there were so many Indian restaurants in and nearby Anderson Township until I moved closer to the area. And thus far, I've had great experiences at each one. This particular one is definitely no exception. My boss and I decided to try this place out of lunch on a Thursday. The place itself definitely isn't huge but has plenty of seating. The owners, an older couple, are very polite and soft-spoken. Their menu is full of what you'd expect from an Indian restaurant but has a few items with a twist. One of which we tried on a whim. It was the special vegetable samosa. We ordered that along with some keema samosas. The keema samosas were packed with spicy beef goodness and went great with the accompanying sauces (especially the red one). The special vegetable samosa was unique, like a smashed vegetable samosa, loaded with chicken peas. It was very tasty too. After that, we ordered the chili chicken and chicken vindaloo along with some garlic naan. Their spice level is 0-4, so we did both dishes at a 2. We hardly waited long at all until both were ready. Everything was excellent, especially the chili chicken. The veggies were cooked just right so they kept a nice crisp crunch. Overall, I'd say we were both impressed. It's hard to pass up good Indian food and this place definitely makes it good. Now I just need to decide which one here is my favorite. I may have to bring my lady here to help me decide.

We had a large party of 19 people for a graduation party. We called a week ahead to let them know we were coming and we couldn't have been happier. The staff was amazing as usual the food was beyond. Incredible! There are no words for how accommodating and friendly everyone was. I'm so glad we chose Indian bistro for our family get together. As usual we will be coming back. This is one of our absolute favorite places and our favorite favorite favorite place to get Indian food.

Chicken Tikka masala

I'm honestly not an Indian cuisine expert because I literally order the same two things which are the chicken tikka masala and garlic naan. These two items are just my favorite and I can't help but order the same stuff haha Anywho, I was craving chicken tikka masala and found this establishment because it was literally only four miles away. It also had pretty good ratings, so why not give it a go. We came here on a Friday night and it was fairly busy. Even though our food took forever to come out (looks like a small family business) - the food was worth the wait. The chicken tikka masala was really good and the garlic naan was so delicious. Love eating the leftovers the next day as well, so good!

Ordered takeout yesterday from this place for the first time. Delicious food and great service. We got the chicken tikka masala, chili chicken and garlic naan The chicken tikka masala was perfection. The chili chicken was a bit oily for my taste, but it is a stir-fried dish so I should've expected it. The garlic naan was chewy perfection. Mounds of perfectly cooked cumin rice came with the entrees. We will be back. Support your local mall businesses during this pandemic!

5* food, 3* atmosphere, 4*experience! My wife and came out looking for some great Indian Food and the yelp reviews have this one rated pretty high. I will agree with my yelping allies, the food is hands down amazing and very affordable. We ordered chicken tiki masala at a medium (#2) spice level; it had just enough heat that your mouth tingled but did not take away from enjoying the meal. Also, the garlic nan was fantastic! We could have gotten away with one order and shared but we doubled it just for the left overs. The down side to the restaurant is that the decor is awful and pretty bland to look at. The place was clean but the menus were pretty filthy and could use a good wipe down. Overall, I would be able to endure the looks of this place just for the food! My wife and I will certainly be back and my hopes are that maybe the owners will update the place a bit. Regardless, genuinely happy with our meal and can't wait to try more on the menu. Might have to go on a buffet day!

Service was great and very friendly. You could tell this place was clean and very well maintained. My husband and I had lunch with a friend. They have a pretty extensive menu but it's not as extensive as a lot of other Indian restaurants. I think they managed to condense it down for most people. I have the chicken tikka McGreb which is close to the masala like stuff but it's full of mushrooms which I just love! The Jasmine rice it came with was also delicious underneath it. It came with garlic naan as well which was super nice because other places we go to, you have to pay more for garlic naan. My husband had more of a fried rice dish that also came with something that has creamy lentils. I can't remember what it is called. But it was delicious! We also shared an appetizer of samosas which came with spicy onions, tamarind, and a delicious green sauce. We finished off lunch with a gulab jamun dessert. The whole place served a great food and we are very much looking forward to coming back!

I came here on a day it was just starting to snow. I had…read moreerrands to do in the area and had been in the mood for Indian food to take home and eat during my snow days. They greeted me upon walking in and took my order. I sat in the waiting area. No one else was there besides a couple that arrived a few minutes after me that was dining in. It only took about 10-15 minutes for my order. I got the Lamb Saag at a level 2 and Chicken Tikka Masala at Level 3, plus both garlic and paneer naan. I enjoy spicy food, but opted for the low end because this was a new place for me and I was going off of the reviews I saw. The lamb had nice flavor but wasn't spicy at all. I would prefer a 3-4. I let my mother have the rest because she was very fond of it even though she's not as open to different cultures cuisines as I am. I preferred the chicken. Very tasty to me. Again, level 3 did have a bit more spice but I would go even higher next time. Both types of naan were great. I would have liked if the paneer naan had more cheese though. When I'm in the mood for Indian and in the area again as I often am, I'd surely go back.

Building could use some work, and the pick up area is dated. Service was a bit awkward…read more Ordered the chicken saag and rav korma at level 1. Both were flavorful and not spicy at all (which is ok because I have GERD). Seekh kabob and chicken biriyani at level 2. It had a healthy hint of spice and was also flavorful. Level 1 and 2 are very different on spice. The order came with 3 containers of rice. Chicken nan and plain nan both good. Not greasy. Overall it was a good meal but nothing we ate rushing back to. I think we prefer Shaan for more variety of options.
