The beauty of phenomenal Indian restaurants is that you can order anything on the menu and know it will taste great. This visit I had the combo of chicken tikka, chicken vindaloo, daal tadaka, and of course this new shahi paneer that was a total game changer. All dishes were excellent. On the side I had the garlic and cheese naan with basmati rice. This place appears unassuming from outside but on the inside it has an upscale feel with cloth table tops and cloth napkins, glassware, and attentive dressed up staff that frequent your table often. I will be back. Perhaps even again this weekend!

Today I surprised my wife by asking her out to lunch, and we ended up back at Flavors Indian…read moreCuisine. She really enjoyed it on our last visit, and I wanted to give it another try. This time around, the experience was a little better. I ordered the curry chicken with a side of garlic naan, while my wife chose the aloo baingan. The food took about 25 minutes to come out, which felt a bit long for lunch but wasn't unreasonable. One thing I did notice was that a table that was seated after us (they arrived about 10 minutes after we were seated) received their food before we did, including another table that had a larger party. It wasn't a major issue, but it did stand out and is something the kitchen could and should improve on. They should really work to a FIFO (First in First Out) schedule. That said, the food itself was very enjoyable. My curry chicken, ordered at a medium spice level, was cooked and seasoned perfectly to my taste. The garlic naan was especially good--fresh, flavorful, and a great complement to my meal. Overall, this visit improved my impression compared to the first time around.

They were decently busy for dinner with takeout orders and had plenty of inside seating. Our wait staff was very friendly and attentive to every table, taking great care of us. The inside was very classic and spacious, with plenty of room between tables. My partner and I started with the Aloo Pakora, garlic cheese naan, and the onion kulcha. This was a great way to start our experience as the waiter explained each dish to us, as well as the different sauces we could enjoy with it! For our entree, we got a generous portion of lamb biryani and chicken tikka masala. They confirmed what spice level we would like (1-5, with 1 being not hot and 5 being spicy). We got the 3 and thought it was the perfect spice level for us, as people that frequently enjoy spicy foods. To end, we got a ras malai for dessert, which is a cold dessert with milk and pistachios. It was the perfect way to cool down our tongues after the meal. We had plenty of food leftover to have for a 2nd dinner the next day as well, which is a plus!

Is it the best Indian out there, no, but it's pretty good for the Midwest. They have the creamiest Mango Lassi's as well, but they're tiny for the price. The entrees aren't unreasonably priced.

The menu has a nice selection of vegetable, chicken, lamb, goat and seafood dishes as well as biryani, breads and a chaat menu. We ordered the Samosas, Vegetable Pakora, Poori, Chicken Tikki Masala and Lamb Curry. The Poori and appetizers came out promptly. Both appetizers were lightly dusted with a seasoning that was really flavorful. We asked what it was and its Chaat Masala. When the mains came out they looked great and tasted wonderful. I've eaten a lot of Indian food over the years and this is some of the best I've had. It's a family owned restaurant so maybe it's family recipes? The spice levels were good. The mild has a decent amount of heat and the medium is relatively hot. Prices are reasonable. No alcohol but the Mango Lassi is great. Service was also great.

The butter chicken was wonderfully buttery, tomatoey and embodied a really good butter chicken flavor but could have used some cream and less heat for a mild level. The butter naan was decent. The prices were reasonable. I'll definitely try again.

Not really conducive to eat in, it's not a totally comfortable vibe. But we did! As well as a few other people that came at the same time. The service was great! Server guy, I'm not sure what to call him, was extremely attentive, personable and did pretty much all the running around while we were there. He handled all the tables, handled the people picking up food for take out, and did it all smoothly. The food really was amazing. Again, see the pictures I posted. We over ordered, on purpose, to try a little of a lot of things. The corn soup was different, but good. Seems to be a mix of a few cans of cream corn, broth, and a few chicken bits (if you ordered chicken). We found it pleasant. The fried spinach was amazing. The yellow curry was amazing. The Mongolian beef was amazing. Thank you for the rice, there was quite a bit of it and the fried shrimp (I forget the official name...fried shrimp?) off the appetizer menu) was AMAZING. We will definitely go back. Even if it's just take out. I must say....we took the left overs home and they made the trip just fine and were still good as left overs. Highly recommend.

The restaurant was clean and featured a modern décor, which made for a nice atmosphere right from the start. We were seated immediately upon arrival, which is always a plus on a Friday night. To start, my wife ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, and I went with my usual--a Corona with a lime. For our meals, she chose the Veggie Biryani, while I went with the Tandoori Chicken, with a side of rice and garlic naan. Her Veggie Biryani had that classic slow-building heat you expect from Indian cuisine. I tried a bite myself, and it definitely had a nice kick without being overwhelming. My Tandoori Chicken was cooked perfectly--tender, flavorful, and very satisfying. The garlic naan was also a standout and paired well with everything. Overall, the food, service, and experience were all very good. We'll definitely be returning to Black Salt the next time we're craving Indian food.

In reading other reviews about Minerva, it sounded like the buffet offerings were extensive. We arrived at noon when they opened and when the buffet was scheduled to start. We were the first there. One worker told us it would be five minutes before the buffet was ready. The second worker told us it would be 10 minutes before the buffet was ready. But it was not ready for 20 minutes. By then other patrons had arrived and jumped the line. There was a lot of variety in both meat and vegetarian dishes. One stand out was the tandoori chicken. The chicken curry was also good. The chaat fixings were good. There was chai as part of the buffet. Ambience was a bit odd. Water was served in bottles as opposed to glasses of ice water like most Indian restaurants have. Paper plates, and plastic, forks, and spoons as well as low quality brown napkins were the order of the day. You bus your own table. It was not the gold standard of Indian buffets, but it's better than any post pandemic offering that I have been to.
