This was a fantastic meal…read more After being recommended this restaurant from a trusted friend, my finally agreed to give Indian food a chance. Our server was very friendly, and excited to find out it was my wife's first experience with Indian/Nepalese food. The Naan was perfect. The Murg Rara was very well seasoned and balanced, but could have used a little more heat for my taste. The pan fried chicken Momo's were fantastic and I throughly enjoyed the chutney they were served with. We did order a side of Raita as a milder sauce. The tika was excellent and the portion was large. Enough that we took over half of it home. The dining room was clean, modern, and inviting. We hadn't left the restaurant and were already talking about what to order on our next visit. Can't wait to go back! A true gem of a restaurant.

I'm a bit picky about my momos just because nothing compares to my favorite spot, but this is the…read moreonly place that's come close. I really enjoyed the vegetable momos I got here--the flavor and crunch from the onions was so pleasant, and there was a hint of bitterness in the flavoring which I surprisingly didn't mind. It was flavorful and so delicious and it was amazing with the sauces on the side. I also ordered the himalayan vegetarian thali set, but since this was my first time trying a thali set I'm not sure how it compares in general. It was a nice experience but I only really loved the curry with mushrooms. However, I had this later as leftovers and it surprisingly tasted even better that way. We also tried the paneer tika masala and I'm so glad we got that. It was delicious, full of flavor, and went really well with the garlic naan. I also liked how generous the one order of naan was.

I cannot believe I haven't reviewed this place yet…read more. (EDIT: I have, I just forgot lol) This is the only Indian restaurant I have been going to and will continue to go to. Alone the food is amazing. I've tried too many things and have been more than satisfied by everything I've ordered, so all I can say is, anything is great here. However if I can recommend something specific, it'd be the Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken, Vindaloo with Goat or Lamb, the spinach paneer, the sampler plate, the garlic naan, the paratha, the cauliflower... The list goes on. All that aside, the customer service is amazing. They remember everytime I walk in and ask how I am and/or my family if they aren't with me. The service is quick and very polite. 10/10 I highly recommend a visit.

The cashier was so kind and polite. He had a big smile on his face. Every time I looked at him he was smiling. While a few employees walked past me looked me dead on my face and didn't speak or offer a welcoming smile. I still left happy. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and rice and it was delicious. A dessert and a mango lassi. The spice level was perfect. The portion was generous. I was able to make 2 meals of my order.

As usual, the surface was top-tier, they constantly kept my glass filled and made sure I had everything I needed. I always love the artwork on the wall and the music is always very lively. If you've ever been to the buffet, I highly recommend you drop by for dinner.

They're known for their absolutely fantastic lunch and dinner buffet with prices that are hard to beat, especially in this economy! I don't eat there in person often, but it's one of our top go-to spots for takeout/delivery. I swear it's just as good delivered to your doorstep as it is at the restaurant itself. They really know how to securely pack up a to-go order, I'll tell you that. I know we don't live far away, but still. It always arrives piping hot. Besides the obvious and ever-beloved chicken tikka masala (insanely good), I'm a big fan of their Mulligatawny Mughlai Soup (lentil soup with rice and chicken). It's super savory with a little lemony brightness. Ultra comfort food! We're also big fans of their veggie biryani: super fragrant basmati rice all dolled up with fresh veggies, paneer, raisins, and almonds. We also love their Bombay potatoes (spicy potatoes with mustard seed) and their Chana Masala Punjabi: spicy chick peas, potatoes, and onions in a tomato and onion gravy. How good does that sound?!

The interiors are very pretty, with an emphasis on traditional pieces and decor from India. I loved the beautiful woodwork on some of the imported pieces they had. Service: The service was pretty slow, but that was fine with us! The server was the only person supporting the whole restaurant, take out, and bar. Food: The food was incredible! My husband and I ordered the mango chicken to share and the chili momos as an appetizer. The chili momos were not too spicy, but had a mild kick and banging with flavor. There were 4 pieces to the order, and the perfect amount of food for the appetizer. The mango chicken was made with real mangos and no additional sugar added to the dish, which we loved! The dish was very flavorful.

Star India has been in business for 25 years. We have been going there for about 17 years of that…read moretime. The 3.9 star Yelp average is too low for this business and is likely due to the petty complaints of entitled customers. We have had Indian food everywhere both in the USA and internationally except for India itself. We have also eaten homemade Indian food made by immigrants. In light of this experience, SI food is in the top 2 Indian food restaurants we have ever eaten at. On our visit on a Sat night around 6:00, they were moderately crowed with low to average noise level. The shared lot gets full but you can find parking further away in the lot. There are several other good restaurants in their strip mall. Sadly, the BUFFET is ONLY offered on WEEKENDS now. However, neither the items, quality, nor price has changed much recently. They have their take on the traditional and common Indian buffet items: chicken Marsala, vindaloo, paneer, etc. Consequently, the buffet pics I posted years ago are still accurate. This is a family owned business. The wife is hostess, waitress, and cashier. The husband makes the naan fresh while you eat and you can watch him through a window. It is a little thicker and fluffier than some other places and has less "toppings" (garlic etc.), but tastes great. The soup in the buffet changes periodically. We definitely recommend giving these guys a try. The buffet is a great value if you eat a lot or if you want to try their menu items to see which you like. The regular menu is great if you want takeout or know which items you like already.

Highly recommended! The owners are wonderful and the food is amazing! Their naan is the best of any…read moreIndian restaurant we've been to so far (and we've been to a lot) and I LOVE the butter chicken. This is our favorite go to spot for when we want to eat out!
