What I was supposed to get..thanks Uber Eats for NOTHING.
Courtney B.

I ordered food from this location via Uber Eats yesterday (and I never received my food). While I am more than annoyed about this, it's not on Nala, that's on Uber, and I get that. However, I decided to go into the establishment today and purchase a few of the items I was supposed to receive yesterday, today. Today, I re-order the shrimp vindaloo with rice. *Public service announcement* For the folks who don't know, vindaloo is made up of vindaloo sauce, which is usually made from caramelized onions, curry paste, coconut milk, vinegar, ginger, chilies, jalapeno, garlic, chickpeas, lentils, and other spices like salt, pepper, paprika, and turmeric. The vindaloo from the establishment was heavy on chili flakes which was a let down because the chilies in dishes like these are supposed to be simmered down to create the vindaloo itself. Because of this, the vindaloo lacked the punch that one comes to expect. For me, this dish was mediocre at best 2.5/5 I also re-ordered the Aloo Bonda. These were soggy, and that just wont do for a snack like this. The consistency of this snack alone made it unappealing to eat. 2/5

A lunch plate  -mammoth portions!
Susan W.

Some really good flavors, but personally, I prefer the whole spices be removed before being served, but not sure that is tradition. I was a bit put off after chomping into s few. One thing for sure, you won't go hungry here. I had a lunch plate. I chose the non veg meal. It came with several "small dishes" of accompaniment and an adequate amount of white rice. Here is the actual description from the menu. I enjoy Indian Food but am far from an expert. It didn't come with any naan which added to my disappointment. I did have a Lassi which was delicious. Description: WEEKDAY NON VEG MEALS Sweet, Chapati/Poori, Chicken Curry, Fish Curry, Rasam, Rice, 1 Non-Veg Side, 1 Veg Sides, Curd, Appalam and Pickle $11.00 WEEKDAY VEG MEALS Description: Sweet, Chapati/Poori, Sambar, Rasam, Vatha Kulambu, Rice, 2 Veg Sides, Curd, Appalam and Pickle $10.00 I need to return as I feel like when experience really wasn't enough to help me see the quality Indian food that is likely served. I will post an update when that happens....

Indian and Chinese restaurants are getting hit doubly hard right now because of the pandemic and the unjustified hate coming from ignorance. They need your patronage more than ever right now. Napa's also is handling covid precautions well and packages their food very nicely. In Monday's they have a BOGO free special entree deal. We BOGO'd (that's now a word) the Hyderabad chicken biryani, the chicken tikka masala, and the tandoor chicken. We also go some garlic naan and gulab jamun. This all fed 4 hungry people. Don't be afraid of the food being spicy because none of it is. The naan didn't have much flavor, but it got the job done. I do not recommend the chicken tikka masala. The sauce is very underwhelming with an almost chef Boyardee vibe. I think they tailor this to the Texan taste bud. I added some spicy chili sauce at home and that helped. The biryani was tasty! Each tray came with an entire piece of chicken in the middle and it had much for spice and flavor than the masala. I do wish they had served limes though. Luckily I had some at home. The tandoori chicken had good char marks and was moist on the inside. I wish they had kheer for dessert, but instead we got the $4 order of 3 gulab jamun. They were sweet and soft on the inside. If you're near by, this place isn't bad. I just wish they'd spice things up a bit.

Pepper Chicken( supposed to be appetizer) and family size dosa
Sudeshna B.

Ordered pepper chicken (appetizer) and a family size dosa for to-go. Came back home saw the pepper chicken had loads of gravy, they made it as an entre. In the menu, the family size dosa has a picture with potato fillings in the bowl. The one we got didn't have any potato fillings. The food was okay, dosa chutneys were great. But, I just don't like when restaurants mess up my order.

This is such a disgusting experience, I placed a pick up order from door-dash for idly with chutney and sambar and when I was about to taste the sambar from the container there was a big green fly floating, first I taught it some veggie or something coz they do put some veggies in sambar and to my shock it ended up being a big fly. When restaurants provide with food like this and what if I ate the fly without noticing it ? As this is a restaurant near by my place due to bad rains I taught it picking it up and had to face such horrible incident.

Veg combo meal
Bhoopesh K.

One of the best tasting Indian restaurants in the area. Their veg and non veg combo is the best deal for money. You can also get add ons for the combo. Salon, who helped us with the order, gave suggestions on how each the dishes would be and how much quantity it would be. If you want to get authentic Indian taste and also not to spend too much on your budget, this is the place. Taste 5/5 Ambience 3.5/5 Service 4.5/5

Nice Indian restaurant with a variety of dishes. They accommodate newbies. I requested the dish not be too spicy and they were very kind and offered advice on what to order.

We were craving some authentic Indian food, and this for sure hit the spot. Sunday at 4 pm it was…read moreempty, but we were a party of 8, so it worked out perfectly. It is a smaller place, and they have only one high chair, heads up. We ordered a few different things to get a sense of how their flavor profile is. We ordered the following: Vegetable Samosa - great ratio of dough and filling; the green side sauce is so fresh and amazing. Butter Chicken - amazing, buttery, flavorful chicken. Vegetable Biryani - very flavorful and just the right amount of vegetables. Spicy Chicken Kodai - this was a fantastic one of our favorites. Mix Vegetable Curry - this was yummy as well but nothing special. Butter , Chili, and Garlic Naan. The naans are great, but if you love a kick, get the chili one. Overall, we really enjoyed this place. I think we have now found our go-to Indian spot in this area. Their menu items do say which region the food is from. We will be back to try other menu items.

First visit, on a Monday, so pretty quiet dining. Pretty basic setup with menus and drinks,…read morefriendly staff was attentive and welcoming. The Hop Queen ordered the non-veg lunch special, butter chicken, and I ordered the Vindaloo (spicy), as this is my usual litmus test for a new Indian restaurant. Everything was prepared fresh for us, nothing tasted like it had been prepped before we arrived. Lots of fresh spice flavour, and the naan was a bit different (in a good way) from other places - nice texture and crunch with the flavour. Lots of interesting looking items on menu, it was a nice touch that almost all were ID'd with a specific region in India. Would be fun to work through the menu and try different items!

This place is right around the corner so I decided to give it a whirl…read more I ordered online, and got there to pick up at the time it said it would be ready. There was one customer waiting, and not another person. I waited about ten minutes. My son loves chicken Tikka masala, so we ordered him some. It is spicy. I'm into a moderate spice, and this is burning my lips as I type. There was no option when ordering online to determine level of spice so we weren't ready for that. Beyond the spice the chicken was tough, so even if the spice was toned down the chicken wasn't great. The tandoori chicken is nice and flavorful and tender. $17 for three drumsticks and two thighs might be a bit steep. Overall not an overwhelmingly good experience.

I went to Tamarind Indian Cuisine on the last day of my Daniel Fast. A Yelp friend suggested that…read moreI try the Marsala dosa, which had potatoes and peas inside. Quite honestly, it was better than the onion dosa...more filling. The Marsala dosa was not as crisp on the outside with folded ends. The potato and peas mixture was fragrant and perfectly seasoned with spices. I savored every bite. This meal was so enjoyable to eat. My server was very attentive bringing me a menu to the table and offering me water to drink. She was very friendly and personable. Only one person came into the restaurant while I dined there. He was getting his food to do. Otherwise, it was extremely quite with virtually the entire restaurant to myself. I was having a early lunch. Overall, very chill environment.

First time to check out Naga's this past weekend and I wasn't aware it was a buffet only experience…read moreon the weekends. They had so many good food choices on the buffet! Vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Plus sweets. If you are someone who can eat a lot (I can't) then probably a good value for the $25 per person ($31 ish after tax + tip) for a lunch buffet otherwise may be better to go when you can order off the menu and take any leftovers home. I appreciated the variety and wished I could take even more than a taste of each item. I was able to try many of them and it was nicely done and well spiced.

Recently, I went to two buffets. One of them was at Naga's Indian Cuisine. At first, we didn't plan…read moreto have a buffet, but since it was Saturday at noon, the restaurant only offered a buffet. The restaurant was quite big, with many tables. The buffet dishes were varied, including different kinds of biryani, naan, curries, appetizers, meats, herbs, masalas, desserts, ice cream, juice drinks, and masala chai (Indian hot tea). They also had freshly baked dosas and pani puris. It was an experience to try so much Indian food at one time. However, to my surprise, there were too many customers, and it seemed that the restaurant couldn't handle the crowd. Customers stood in front of the empty tandoori chicken tray for more than 15 minutes. When the tandoori chicken tray finally came out, people rushed to get it, and the tray was empty again within five minutes. Besides, empty plates were stacked on the tables, and even the young waiters were already very busy cleaning them up. As for the food, most of the dishes were carbohydrates (biryani) or fried foods (fried fish, fried potatoes, fried sweet potatoes, etc.). I can't say that I enjoyed the meal. Perhaps I should avoid going during buffet hours and give it another try.

We were the only ones outside with this kind of order. The chicken was okay, fried no spice or flavor. Apollo fish was friend in beans batter or something. Again was okay. Goat pulao tasted quite bland however both rice and meat was cooked well. The chicken biryani was also okay. Overall food wasn't great and lacked flavor. We ended up going because the weather was great and we wanted to sit outside. Not a lot of Indian places offer that. It's in a quiet neighborhood so that was good. Nothing to see.

Aug 13, 2025 review for PARMER branch location…read more ---- I understand that this is the page for Leander Location but I'm leaving the review here since they don't have the yelp page created yet for PARMER location. We went there on a weekday dinner around 8pm. They just had the grand opening couple of days ago. We ordered masala dosa and veg uttpam. Both items came quickly. I was really amazed to see their plate and utensils. Sambhar came in a really big bowl and all 3 chutneys (coconut, peanut, tomato) were also good. The waitress came to check in on us after few mins. We provided her feedback. Restaurant is spacious and restrooms were clean. Location is good as lot of Indian families in this area but good competition as well with other south Indian restaurant. They also have bunch of pastry and snacks options pre made and available at the counter. Its a women owned restaurant. Really nice to see another good restaurant in this area.
