Food was amazing. We loved the atmosphere, it was very relaxed and comfortable. The service was great, the man was so respectful and he gave food to a hopeless man that walked by. 10/10. read more

It was an unplanned experience on Cinco de Mayo! A favorite restaurant for years by our Hosts (good neighbors, Tony and Stephanie), and a very good segue from a crowded space of revelers at our Club. The Service was excellent. The ambiance was low-key and simple, and the food exceptionally good. My only distraction was the low seat in the booth where I was seated. I felt like I had fallen into a hole! Otherwise, the food and relaxed evening meal service was very good. We felt "at home" in a safe, comfortable, and pleasingly simple environment.

They dont how to behave with customers. Food was bland. For vegetarians its a waste of money.

My delivery took TWO HOURS! and when I called after 90 minutes to ask how long it'd be, he was RUDE, immediately blamed it on door dash when they hadn't even picked up my order yet. As I was on the phone with him I got a DoorDash message saying that they confirmed the order, something tells me he forgot and tried to fix it while we were on the phone. When I finally got my food it was mid and way overpriced for what it is. Never again. Terrible service. read more

My husband and I came in for dinner service and ordered a variety of things, overall we really enjoyed our experience and the food! The man who helped us (i'm assuming the owner) was very attentive and diligent. The food tasted great and we left feeling fulfilled. We got goat curry, butter chicken, vegetable samosas, aloo gobi and would highly recommend it all! read more

THIS PLACE WAS SO GOOD! Nice guy who greeted us and the place is so clean and quiet! The food was also really flavorful and good!

I was traveling cross country and got a room for the night but far away. I had a need. A need that would only be filled by chicken tika massala. I called in my order with a heat level of 7 and a side of garlic naan. Parking is a problem. Even for take out. I had to get dropped off and picked back up after receiving my order. The man who met me at the counter was polite and quite concerned over a recent injury I had. We chatted a few minutes before my order was ready, and I was on my way. After making back to the hotel, I dove in. It was a delicious dish with decent heat. I would say it was a 7 but closer to 5 or 6. I'd probably bump it up to 9 for myself. The garlic naan was tasty as well. I'd highly recommend just be prepared to walk after parking. read more

This restaurant just left my wife and daughter sitting for 90 minutes with no food, while the same food they ordered were served to people who had been there for as little as 15 minutes. Every time they asked about time they were told 5 more minutes usually with a repeat of the excuse that they were an employee short. They left other people waiting with online orders, many of whom also gave up and left. It isn't clear how who got food or who didn't was chosen. Random? Maybe. Friends of staff? Who knows. Point is I'd avoid this place like the plague. read more

Not good, food took way too long even though it was empty. Pricy and owner demanded high percentage tip at the end. Never coming back. No spicy option available. Owner screaming to employee on the shift, rude, and not polite to service... Stay away... read more

Easily our favorite Indian restaurant in town!! Always nice, quick service. Never disappointed with the food, always make an effort to try new things each time we go. read more

This is one (if not the only) local Indian spot and the food did not disappoint! The garlic cheese naan was delish, and the cheese tikka misala chicken was divine! Only down side to this spot is the wait time! They're longer and not accurate (even confirmed by an employee). read more

Delicious food! We enjoyed the chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, and Dahl mahkani! The naan, chai, and rice were phenomenal! Loved it

They've done a fantastic job of handling the COVID-19 pandemic, and I've loved every take-out experience I've had with India's House throughout the past year (and, considering my love for Indian food, this has been a pretty frequent occurrence). I've discovered my new love for the malai kofta, which is essentially fried vegetable fritters in a lovely, creamy sauce, and am continuing to cultivate my adoration for mango lassi. Each entree can honestly last you 1-3 meals, depending on how much you eat, which is another factor that makes this stop a great deal. You can order online or via phone, and the waits are perfectly reasonable. The only downside is that if you plan to pick food up, you won't be able to wait inside, but that's a great opportunity to wander around downtown Columbia and explore. All around a really solid choice for Indian food in Columbia! read more

I had lunch here today and it was horrible. Chicken Tikka Marsala, garlic naan and a mango drink was $25+. Prices on menu did not match web prices. Chicken had zero flavor (sauce was good but the chicken was not). The garlic naan was about like biting off jerky and the rice was plain white rice with zero flavor. My drink was thin and tasted almost like flavored water. I won't be going back there, ever. read more

This review is my today's experience with the take out food - I have no idea of their buffet. Saw good reviews, stopped, ordered, paid over $100 but turned out a complete disappointment. Good service, worst place to have Indian food. Shrimp Korma had 6 medium sized shrimp. Butter chicken had 1 spoon of shredded chicken in it. Lamb curry was most likely the left over from the lunch buffet - 8 small chunks of lamb in the cold curry. Complete disgrace and shameful! read more

we had a change of plans and I called to cancel my upcoming order. the owner literally called to yell and me and said he'd report me.

Food was great, definitely satisfied our cravings. We ordered takeout and it was ready within 45 min. Wish we could do the Indian lunch buffets, but obviously not safe during COVID - Chicken Tikka Masala (4.5/5): yummy, not too greasy. Always my go to. - Garlic Naan (5/5): LOVE when the naan is dough-y. My favorite. Perfection - Beef Biryani (4/5): good flavor, but this was pretty greasy. read more

owner of the restaurant harassed me that i didn't pay and then made me pay twice. extremely mean and rude. food is amazing but will not be supporting this restaurant anymore. read more

I used to visit this restaurant many times a few years ago. They had a fantastic lunch buffet at a very reasonable price. The service was excellent. You were immediately seated and water brought to your table. You would go pick up a plate fill it from the buffet and have a fantastic meal and a good experience. The restaurant was sold to another owner and you can only order off a menu, no buffet available even though their website still shows buffet the front of the restaurant on the window talks about and mentions buffet, but that doesn't exist. Not sure why they still try to advertise something that they don't have. i've eaten there once since they reopened. I was shocked by how small the portions were and how expensive the food is. The ambience is fine, but I'm afraid they won't be open very long because there was no one in the restaurant besides myself and my wife when we went. I'm afraid it's back to Kansas City or St. Louis for really good Indian food. What a shame Columbia doesn't have a great restaurant. read more

My friend took me here when I was visiting for a weekend, and this was literally the most amazing Indian food I've ever had. All the workers were lovely, the food was wonderful, everything clean and organized. Even though we were there a little later, the staff was wonderful and super timely. No complaints, we definitely plan on coming here as part of our normal routine. read more

This place does not do authentic Indian cuisine. Ordered biriyani and it was more like fried rice. No Indian spices whatsoever. This is NOT indian cuisine read more

What a great spot! It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the service was amazing, the food was so good I'm at a loss for words, and the portions were enough to take leftovers home. Seriously, so delicious. read more

Had the butter chicken, garlic and onion naan, the appetizer sampler, and the strawberry lassi! Food was overall pretty good - butter naan was delicious but the strawberry lassi wasn't my fave (my friend had the mango one which was pretty good and is what i usually get!) read more

I cannot believe you can get good (Americanized) Indian food in Columbia for this price! It's a $10.99 lunch buffet every day, and the food is hot, plenty, and has a large variety. We went in on a Saturday at lunch time, and the place was packed. Seat yourself, but by the time we were leaving there was a little wait. It seemed that all the Indian people who came in were getting take out off the menu, but the food in the buffet was good enough for me! read more

The food was okay. I have had better tasting chicken tikamasala at the curry n grill in Jefferson City. The Service was not that great. The guy was really rude and said to leave a tip after charging me almost $30 for small portions of food. I was one person.... The Ambiance was okay. The music was nice, but it was hot inside the restaurant. I don't think I'll go back after that experience. Not much flavor and over priced for very little flavor and portions. read more

Wow, pretty sad to know I had the last good meal here ever last year. THIS PLACE IS UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Prices are now nearly 60% higher than before. I ordered 3 different entrees. My order was wrong for all three. It tasted like there was 1/4 of the spice and flavor as before. It seemed like they just dumped tomato paste and cream on chicken and called it a day. The tandoori chicken is absolutely horrible now, they are using cheaper gross cuts of meat. It was 80% bone and had zero flavor. It used to come with seasoning on a bed of grilled onions. Now it's just a lime and some greenery as if you got cheap Mexican food from a food stand. The naan was soggy and horrible. I hate to be this negative and dramatic. I ate here all the time with the old owners, it was some of the best food in Columbia for a good while. Sad to see it go. This place is so far off from what it was when the original owners were there. Overpriced, gross, and made me sick. read more

Great food. Great price. No frills location. Nondescript environment. Good fast service. 4.5 stars

24 sept 2022 My rating is a definite zero star. I walked in today and ordered few items for take out. The food is worst here like other reviewers mentioned. This is nothing close to indian food. Waterered down food. Expensive high prices. Their biryani is a joke, i took it back and asked him if its biryani or fried rice and he was giving me attitude saying its same thing, biryani and fried rice same. This guy has no manners. If the food is not right, at-least own up to it. The take out containers of rice was half empty and cold. The paneer container was not full either. It seems like someone's left overs. DO NOT support this kind of business who doesn't know the meaning of indian food and no customer service. I tried places which served tasteless food but atleast the owner would own up to it and apologize or do something to make it right. I left the entire bag of food outside his door, he might serve you the same box i left out. BEWARE he definitely serves others left overs!!! read more

The food is okay, not the best Indian I've had but not the worst either. I've only gotten take out so can't speak about the service inside the store, but the person who takes the phone orders and is there for payment is the same and leaves much to be desired. At our last experience when we were picking up, we heard the total and were about to inquire about adding on a mango lassi. In the brief pause between hearing the total and opening our mouths to ask while pulling out the card, we were shouted at "Pay me, pay me, pay me!" Needless to say, we didn't ask for the lassi, and we'll only eat here if desperate for Indian. read more

Pretty bad "Indian" food. The owner and the chef are not Indian. Columbia, MO needs a couple of authentic Indian restaurants.

Favorite place in Columbia! Food is always always excellent. The owner is eccentric and it's a fun time. Garlic cheese naan is to die for. I made a reservation for my birthday dinner and it was great, they were very nice. read more

The interior looked old and a bit dirty. The food was limited and sub par. Mango lassis and chai tea were not included in the lunch buffet. It was super expensive ($9.17 including tax for a weekday, lunch buffet) and they opened late. I was there at 11 AM (opening time) and they didn't unlock the door until 11:08. Also, while I was eating, the woman manning the place sprayed air freshener! It kind of ruined my lunch since I could only smell the cheap flower smell. Furthermore, their water left a bad taste in my mouth. These are the dishes that I can remember them having for the lunch buffet. The names are not accurate since I can't remember the exact names. --chicken in curry (I don't think it was all white meat chicken. May have had some dark meat.) --tandoori chicken --vegetables in curry --vegetable pakora --plain naan (no garlic naan) --beef in curry --blended spinach --seasoned potatoes --gulab jamun --yogurt sauce --mint sauce --rice pudding I would not recommend this place, simply because for the quality of my experience, it was waaaaay too expensive. I might go there again if they miraculously change their price to $4, because that's all it was worth. read more

Food was great! The portion of the curry was smaller than I expected but it was enough for a nice meal. :)

Ordered the usual, but something seemed different. I think owners might have changed and with that cook. Veggie curry was horrible. Paneer Tikka Masala was not flavorful and spicy was not cooked out. Paneer pakora was tough and bland. Garlic cheese naan was good, but not soft like it used to be. I can't really recommend this place anymore. Sad. read more

The waiter was amazing and helped navigate through the menu. It was my sons first time trying a Indian cuisine and he loved it. Highly recommend!! read more

The service and food was amazing! Very helpful when asking for vegan menu items. Also very patient about it (l'm alway a little hesitant when trying new places). I ordered the vegan curry, they serve lots of rice but not as much curry. I will be sure to get more curry and veggies on my next order, which will probably be pretty soon! read more

Don't order take out. They are slow slow slow. Every time I order it takes forever. Multiple times I've ordered take out or Uber and it's taken an hour or more for the order to be ready. Food is good but I'm done with this place. My poor Uber driver shows up 45 minutes after it's ordered and still has to wait 20 minutes to pick up. Un real. I can butcher my own meat, harvest my own vegetables and cook it all before my order will be ready. read more

After one of my dad's business meetings, we went here for lunch on a quiet, rainy afternoon. He told me it was a good place to eat, and he was right! It was my first time trying Indian cuisine and I was definitely not disappointed. I don't remember the name of the host or the waiter we had, but both of them were very kind, especially the host. We had very engaging conversations with her, and she took care to check up on us in addition to going above and beyond in regard to service our whole stay. Upon my asking, both of those employees were also very helpful in showing me what was vegan on the menu. I settled on a tomato based curry dish with potatoes and peas called Aloo Matar. It was served with rice and was not bland in the least bit! It was also very filling and delicious with a piece of naan bread on the side. My dad opted for the lunch buffet, which he really enjoyed. Overall, I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for good food and awesome service! read more

Went on a date with my boyfriend, ordered the feast for two. Great prices, excellent service, and fantastic food! Definitely recommend!
