The vibe is nothing fancy just a simple dine in Desi restaurant with Indian music on the background. Our waitress served us some masala chai and Alu Tikki on the house. ( We figured this later when the bill came. Thank you it was a nice surprise.) Since it's a Nepali owned restaurant we asked them if they had Momo and they did! So we got the chicken steam Momo with Keema Naan and Chicken Hakka Noodles. The masala and spice was less with simple flavors like any Nepali household. It was like home cooked flavors. The food was fresh and came hot. I loved the noodles and naan. The Mo:Mo was okay, like any other Nepali restaurant they were frozen and steamed later! But the chutney did the magic for Mo:Mo. We got some extra chutney for to go! Would love to come back and try some curry and Naan items. If you like Indian food with minimal spice and solid flavors, give this place a try! We didn't feel bloated or anything that night so we knew the food quality of the food was good. Good luck.

Appetizers: * Samosas - warm and creamy filling; crunchy outside, just like you would expect * Paneer Pakoda - creamy and cheesy * Masala Dosa - absolutely the BEST with the sauces and soup We were stuffed after eating appetizers but pressed on! Main: * Chicken Tikka Masala - an old favorite, exactly what you want in Tikka * Utappam - fluffy savory pancake * Lamb Rogan Josh - the lamb melts away like it's been braised into submission; so perfect. * naan, rice and sauces all perfect And even though we were too stuffed to move... Dessert: * Rice Pudding - served cold and creamy * Gulab Jamison - the syrup was even made fresh! * Rasamalai - cheesy and the pistachio made it balanced A few other things: * hospitality is amazing, so kind and attentive * incredible attention to allergy, just let them know * don't be deceived...you can't walk out, it's more of a waddle ENJOY!

We ate onion bhaje, vegetable samosas, and lentil soup for appetizers. After, we feasted on buttered chicken and tikka masala with rice and garlic naan. At the end, we were brought a complimentary rice pudding each. Without a doubt the food was a 10/10. Thank you so much for having us! Not only is the inside clean, neatly decorated, and spacious, but the man who owns the business is really kind. Before we arrived, I called the restaurant to ask a few questions and I already had a really positive feeling about the place based on the call. When we finally arrived, he stopped and chatted with us briefly and made us feel really welcome. He answered all of our questions about the menu and the food and we even got to take advantage of the lunch special prices. What was really cool is that I'm from Los Angeles and he has a cousin who owns a restaurant there too - that felt like a nice happenstance and synchronicity. I hope anyone reading this supports this man and his business - it made our day!

I was worried when the parking lot was empty, but we were eating early for dinner that I blamed it on the time on a Tuesday. Now that we have tried their food, I really hope the crowds show up later because they deserve it. The food was fresh, piping hot and tasted (almost) like homemade. The aromas when you enter the restaurant let you know that they care about quality. The restaurant was set meticulously at small and large tables. The service was friendly and quick. The carryout was packed well and ready about 15 minutes after my online order. They do have a drive-thru, if that interests you. The chicken dishes were fantastic and came with Basmati. The Garlic Naan was fresh amd tasty. I am excited to branch out and try other entrees. I really hope they continue to thrive because their quality and service deserve it! If you like

We were surprised to see a lunch bar as we have not eaten at a bar since COVID. The selections looked plentiful and delicious so we decided to try it. I filled my plate with many savory rice, vegetarian and meat dishes: The flavors were varied and wonderful. The garlic naan was made fresh when we sat down and brought to our table. It was amazing: flavorful, thin and slightly crispy. We deducted one star because the temperature of the food was not hot enough for our taste, especially for a food bar. I also thought several of the chicken dishes had too many bones though they were tasty. The staff were all attentive and pleasant.

The hosts were delightfully friendly and attentive, regularly checking on us to make sure we were satisfied. We ordered butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, lamb korma and chicken biryani, plus meat samosas and garlic naan. Their chutneys were amazingly delicious, complimenting all the foods. Butter chicken was richly creamy, tikka masala had great flavor but it was the lamb korma that stole the show. They don't serve alcohol, but there's a bottle shop almost right across the street so we were about to BYOB to enjoy alongside the meal. Can't wait to go back to this restaurant to try more items!

They had a bank of TVs on, which did not really fit with the vibe of an Indian restaurant, but the sound was off, so it was OK. When we first entered - on the late side, for us - the place was not very crowded. However, the number of patrons increased, and it was quite full by the time we were partway through our meal. Now, the food. I got the Lamb Kadi, which was something a bit different for me. A good mix of lamb, tomatoes, onions, garlic, bell pepper and seasoning. Generous portion, and quite tasty - I took some home. The co-diner got his go-to entree, the chicken saag. He found it a bit of a departure from the saag he has had elsewhere, but enjoyable. Service was quite efficient, despite the fact that the establishment was operating short-handed, and the owner had to step in and help. All ini all, we were glad to have discovered Royal Oak Masala, and would be glad to come back and further explore its offerings.
