This is what Kheer should look like!
David C.

Went for lunch...they were offering a special "Thali Goat" ...An Indian thali comprises - main-course gravy, dal or curry, sabzi or stir fry, condiments like raita, chutney, pickle, salad, papadum, and side dishes like roti, naan, chapati, paratha, or rice-- all served on a cool multi-section platter or tray. It was fantastic and delicious. Awesome goat curry, beautiful fluffy rice, naan. Service was excellent, place was meticulously clean, prices very reasonable. I would have given 5 stars were it not for the finish which was an Indian staple dessert (rice pudding) called Kheer. Yuck-very poorly made, lousy ingredients. (A good Kheer is luscious and creamy white---this was grey and tasted totally artificial) I would go back in an instant!

Rasmalai

This was my first time here. Service was fast and they also gave us a complimentary mango lassi on our first visit! We ordered samosas, cheese naan, malai chicken boti and rasmalai for dessert. Samosas and malai chicken were yum! Cheese naan needed a bit more salt but was hot and cheesy. The food was really good overall and well cooked. I liked that the rasmalai was creamy and didn't feel like someone just warmed up the frozen one as most restaurants do! Ambiance is just okay like every other Indian place, but we visit these places for the food!

Butter Chicken

I'm soo happy that we finally got an Indian place in Woonsocket. Before I would drive 30 minutes to get Indian. This spot is better than the others I've had. 100% authentic. I like the chicken tiki masala because it has onions and peppers in it. Yes you have to pay $2 for rice but their prices are still cheaper than other places that include the rice. Veg samosas and garlic naan is amazing. Butter chicken is also good. I'm looking forward to trying other dishes. Everyone is very friendly and they offer online ordering. Very cute inside.

I love this place!! I make sure to visit every time I am in the area. As a lover of Indian street…read morefood and dosa, this place hits the spot every time. I have to make sure to come on an empty stomach because the food is so delicious and filling (and the menu has a great variety so I always find myself trying different foods). The menu is varied and changes slightly daily. It is a bit of a lowkey spot, and has the nicest owners! They are so accommodating, nice, and helpful. Every time I have come here I am met with gracious hospitality. The pani puri is a classic - note that it is served with peas rather than potato. But it's still delicious, it has a tasty tomato daal flavor that pairs well with the pani puri water and onions. The pani puri was great and I can be obnoxious about how I like my pani puri. The paneer tikka hot dogs are also a MUST TRY!! They are so good and flavorful, especially nice and hot. Not too much cheese and a nice, satisfying, soft bread pull. We also wanted to try the mirchi bhaji (fried pepper with toppings like roasted peanuts and chopped red onion) so they kindly gave us one. Finally had the delicious Gadbad ice cream, which I always make sure to get. It is ice cream with fruits and nuts and makes for the perfect finish to your meal.

I'm not even sure How I can describe how terrible this dining experience was. Being a fan of South…read moreIndian food, although not being from the South Indian states, is what led me to this place And I also love to support local businesses. I don't even think I could call this a legit business. Seems more like a bootleg operation. The owner, while very nice, has no clue how to run a restaurant. This is essentially a converted office and will be difficult to find. The entrance is in the back. There was no attempt made to renovate the interior so that it could have any kind of semblance of a true dining experience or even a fast food establishment. The menu is not printed. Rather it is on the owners WhatsApp messages. Refer to picture which I had to take in order to review the menu at the behest of the owner. Noted that there is a lack of pricing unless you ask him directly what things cost. Also there are no pictures of the menu or any description of the size. What we ended consuming were masala doses which came with a coconut poppy seed chutney as well as Idli.The Idlis themselves were okay. However they also came with sambar which is the traditional South Indian soup. This soup was something I normally look forward to and one of the main reasons I come to South Indian restaurants. In a word it was terrible. It's pre-made which I don't necessarily have a problem with however the ingredients are lacking. It has no flavor and is very thin. It also came with a ton of cilantro which I'd asked if they could make without but apparently because it is pre-made there is no way to avoid this. Regardless, the quality of the actual soup was bad. In fact we threw a bowl of it away because none of us enjoyed it. The dosa itself was actually not bad however it was severely underfilled. Usually after eating one of those I have no room for anything else because it's filled with the lovely stuffing of potato onion and peas. This had no peas and was severely underfilled. This is a very bare-boned operation. And the service is reflective of that. There is one bathroom and it is labeled employees only. When we were served we did not get any cutlery and had to request it on multiple times. I got a paper towel along with a spoon. Nothing else. The other two diners got a fork and a spoon as well as a paper towel. The paper towel was a half ply. And because there were three of us they gave us three half plies of paper towel. I wish I could make up this story but it is really quite ridiculous. On top of that the dining table itself which I picked was filthy. I asked the owner to wipe it off and he obliged but that is completely unacceptable in a dining establishment which was not crowded at all. This is something that should be maintained. Also we did not get any water from the tap. It wasn't even offered. If one wants to consume water, you would have to buy a bottle from them. Again, very bizarre and I suspect there's something wrong with their drinking water if they're not able to even offer tap water. Parking is in the back and that is free. I'm not sure how long this establishment will be around but I wouldn't be surprised if they went out of business, soon.

The decor consists of partially empty convenience store shelves, which I suppose have items like candy, toothpaste, and other snacks which I suppose you could buy. But you didn't arrive for convenience. You came to have some darn good lip-smacking food. (I do believe they also have a popsicle or ice cream freezer last time I checked, as well as a neon sign that can be seen from the road.) Of the many times I have ordered takeout from this establishment (I have never eaten there), out of the last few times I went, they had mentioned a tweaked menu, and dare I say, the service may have improved? As in, if you had never been here previously, and you walked in as I had done my first time there, you would have been confused as to what the exact protocol was: where do you place your order? Who do you talk to? Where do you pay? At least now there is a semblance of someone greeting you, which is an improvement. But even without that, I would still come here to grab several bites to bring home: soft, fluffy, delicious samosas (something about their dough and seasoning is just right), chicken 65, ghobi 65, and of course all their other flavorful dishes on their menu (which has changed few times).

Truly one of the worst dining out experiences I have had in recent memory. I have eaten lots of…read moreIndian food (yes...including South Indian) in restaurants from Providence to Boston to New York to London, and I cannot remember food so bland and uninteresting. The decor was almost a joke, but I was willing to overlook it if the food had been good. The service was abysmal. It probably took 45 minutes between when we ordered and when the first dish arrived. And there was over half an hour between when the first person received their dish and the last. At one point, a second waiter came over to bring one dish and asked us who it was for. We asked what it was and he pointed to a dish already on the table and said "I think the same as that." When we told him no one else had ordered that dish, he said "I don't know what it is" and just put it on the table and walked away. The food all tasted like it had been dusted in cinnamon and little else. The clientele consisted exclusively of families with young children who were allowed to yell and scream and run around the place. There was nothing redeeming about this place.

You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu, but I'd like to highlight one dish - Chicken Tandoori Fries! These fries are crispy, loaded with flavor with a bunch of chicken and cheese on it. I got this dish to share, but I truly needed my own to enjoy it thoroughly. The dining room is absolutely massive and I'm sure it could fit a large number of people, so I don't think making a reservation is ever necessary. It is strange that I never see many people dine in, but you could see they're very busy with takeout orders. The staff are always friendly, timely and knowledgeable about their menu. This spot is worth a try and you just might get hooked like I am. -ODL Connect with me! IG & YouTube: @AOEAT

The staff was extremely nice and attentive, it was a Friday night and the place was full with many families dining in which was cool to see. With that, service was a bit slower but we were checked on consistently which was appreciated. For apps we got samosas and the fried onion dish. Both delicious. The green (mint-yogurt?) sauce that came with the samosas was delicious. The fried onion dish was good, I enjoyed the curry leaves and spices in them, they essentially felt like the Indian street food version of onion rings. The curry: I got Goat Chettinad and my friend got Lamb Rogan Josh. Both delicious. Goat Chettinad has a thick curry with coconut milk in the base with turmeric, ginger and all the other great spices that come along. The goat pieces were a little lackluster, not as much meat and a lot of bone. I would get a different meat next time, though, I'm sure this is variable from order to order as goat usually is. The lamb rogan Josh, which I was able to try, was delicious. Bright flavor, tangy, deep ruby red curry and the lamb pieces were plentiful and tender. A slight smokiness from black cardamom, packed with Kashmiri chili, it had such great depth of flavor. Eaten along with some garlic naan which was light, fluffy and had some slight charring around the edges which is exactly how I like it. Also, the parathas. If you haven't had these before, order them. Flakey, buttery and delicious. I've made them at home before and these are better than anything i can muster up! (Probably on account of more butter.. Makes everything better). The curry was quite heavy on the oil/ghee, so be mindful if you're sensitive to that. Also, I enjoy spice, but for rogan Josh which has a kashmiri chili paste base, be careful ordering "spicy". Or if you're a medium person, you may want to go mild. I liked their "medium" for rogan Josh and the "spicy" for the Chettinad but I enjoy spice. I'd recommend trying this spot out, I'll definitely be back.

5 enthusiastic stars for GREAT Indian delivery food that was very vegetarian-friendly!…read more We were ordering in and the reviews had us convinced that India Restaurant was the way to go. Things we loved: - the naan is LEGIT. And the order came with a very hefty amount of it. - veggie and tofu biryani: I put a note for it to be mild and it was! The star of this dish (other than the perfect rice and sauce) were the little raisins or currants that gave the perfect sweet surprise in many bites. - masala curry with tofu: Again, I requested mild and it was mild. My esophagus thanks them! This came over a bed of rice and the rich sauce was so delicious that we used the naan to sop it all up at the end. No scraps or crumbs left behind! Truly this was a great Indian meal. Though I wish we would've been able to eat at the restaurant, the delivery was faultless and the food traveled very well.

The diversity of color, taste, and presentation has me exploring new items every single time I go. It holds a special place in my heart. However, their service has been a pain point for at least the better part of a year. This has happened at least 2 or 3 times in my most recent experiences here. I have made a reservation, showed up a few minutes early. Then, I get shuffled around others who are waiting. It takes 15-20 minutes for them to get a table for the reservation. Then, the tables are not either cleaned or set, or it takes another 15 minutes for someone to offer water or a menu. Unfortunately, I did run a timer the last time I was here and it took about 35 minutes from entering to receiving a glass of water. Their front of house works very hard and she is amazing. I would argue that they shouldn't have open reservations if they know they can't fill them. It makes the overall experience sour and takes away from the amazing food. If this was a one off, I'd understand, but this has happened too frequently and consistently in my last several visits. Overall, the food and hospitality is amazing. I'll keep coming back, but they need to fix their reservation system and staffing.
