The buffet is pretty good. Shame its getting kind of expensive. I would return again but its good if they keep the food fresher

Book club meeting - perfect venue. Parking easily accessible at rear of restaurant. Seated immediately by charming hostess. Sunil our server was attentive - not intrusive - and delightful. FOOD was excellent - freshly made, very tasty, good portions, flavour perfect with hint of spice - not overpowering at all. Dining area with no loud music, lovely lighting and beautifully appointed. I have found a new favourite! read more

The whole restaurant smells fragrant and very pleasant. The ambiance was very light and refreshing. The restaurant is very clean. Our plates and cutlery were still warm, freshly cleaned and the server handled them with a cloth napkin. This place is great for groups and large parties. They have many vegetarian options! They have some awesome Indian drink options that include different kinds of lassi, chai, maharaja shake. The naan portions are small, only 1 cut into halves. read more

My experience at Namskar has always been incredible! The menu is filled with a huge array of traditional cuisine. They also cater to those with special food needs as well. It's hot and fresh only using the best ingredients. Excellent pricing and with wonderful portion sizes. The atmosphere is warm and inviting...giving you a sense of family . The staff and owners are wonderful and I can't help but leave there with a smile on my face every time! I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys Indian cuisine and also to anyone who misses homemade cooking. Seriously, I love this place!!! :) read more

The food was excellent, the service was terrible. We were seated in a back corner which is no big deal as long as you don't immediately ignore/lose track of our table. This happened immediately at 5:30. It was a birthday dinner, on a Saturday and they were SMOKED, which is a good thing for them. Every time we needed something, we had to either flag down a staff member, or actually leave our seats to make inquiries. The owner did what she could to make us happy (deleted one poorly cooked item, replaced it with a complimentary dish) but nothing really takes away the sting of not being attended to while watching several large parties get seated and served before we got to order. The missed opportunities to sell additional beverages, to inquire as to how the food was, to remove all the dirty empty glasses and dishes..... it takes away from the experience for sure. Covid has been hard on everyone, and they clearly were understaffed that night. We do understand that. Due to the quality of the food and the attempts to make it better, we will go back..... Just not for supper on a Saturday ‍ House vegetable, butter chicken, mango chicken, pakoras, curried goat, saffron rice, mango lassi. The only miss was the butter shrimp was was overcooked (heat lamp, clearly) to the point of being inedible read more

We were returning from Banff and decided to dine in Calgary. Picked Namaskar based on good reviews so gave it a try, glad we picked the place. Good ambience, great tasting food and most of all best customer service. The staff were very friendly. Definitely you will love it. Arif was awesome. read more

We always drive by this place and thought we would try the food here. Ordered the lamb vindaloo and the chicken madras for me and my gf here. Super salty was all sauce and literally has 5 pieces of meat in there with bones. Service was decent. Was worth a try but not coming back. It has a parking in the back but would rather travel to the NE end of the city to enjoy some good quality Indian food. read more

Great curry, rice and Naan. If you're looking for an authentic Indian cuisine, you have found your place. We ordered the butter chicken, mango chicken and a vegetarian dish, the aloogobi. It is a stir fry of potatoes, tomatoes, cauliflower and spices. The rice was basmati and tricolored. The butter chicken was very authentic in a tomato sauce and meat was very tender and mouth melting. Combine the curry with rice and garlic Naan, delicious. The mango chicken curry was on the sweeter side but compliments the rice and Naan very nicely. The service is also very quick and nice. They explain the menu well and say the food that is delivered. For 8 people we ordered 2 rice, 5 Naan, and 3 curries. It was the perfect amount for all of us who were moderately hungry. read more

Namaskar is one of my local favourites. Unfortunately my experience this time around was not the 4-5 star I have come to expect from them. We were a party of ten with reservations. Service was slow and disorganized with no one serving water or checking on drinks. We ordered appetizers and they were served promptly but no serving plates and we had to ask for it. The butter chicken was too sweet. The other items we ordered were palak lamb which was okay and not outstanding as we have come to expect. The naan bread and tandoori roti were cooked well and we enjoyed them. Namaskar veggie mix and veggie Manchurian and chilli chicken were below average in taste and freshness. I wanted to provide feedback to the owner but he was not around that night. Sad to see the food quality drop in one of my favourites. read more

This was our first time here! The boys and I came in at 12:30pm and the place was packed! It's a good thing we made reservations online. Our server was very pleasant and seated us immediately. We wasted no time and ordered mango lassis-- yum... they were thick, creamy and not too sweet. Having just come off a ten-day diet (mostly veggies, fruit, nuts, fish, eggs, cheeses), I needed carbs... badly... !! We made a mad dash to the lunch buffet (the a la carte menu is only available at dinner time). I was pleasantly surprised that they also had a Greek-style salad (complete with black olives, sans feta) as well as the regular red onion and green lettuce salads. The goat curry was absolutely divine. The meat was tender and falling off the bone; it was bathed in a mildly spiced, flavorful curry. However, I was fishing around in the chafing dish for more goat meat (there were mostly pieces of spine and neck bone), but I guess the kitchen had to use up all parts of their goat eventually... Strangely enough, the naan (covered by a large cloth) was out on a heated tray at the buffet. At most of the Indian restaurants we've been to, the servers brought out the naan separately to each table to avoid it drying out at the buffet. Sure enough, the edges of the naan on top of the stack were curling a bit... The cabbage and peas were delicious, and so were the masala turnips. The butter chicken was meltingly tender and the sauce was seasoned perfectly. A white gourd curry was also available--I didn't get a chance to try it. I also didn't have room for rice pudding or fruit salad. We will definitely be back sometime for dinner! There are some great choices on their online menu! read more

We went there on a Thursday night and as soon as I entered I was surprised by the crowd. The restaurant was 80% full which is impressive for a weeknight considering the fact that the location also does not attract a lot of walk ins. We had the appetizer platter and the house wine to start. The house wine is terrible but I was not expecting anything better in an Indian restaurant. It was our own fault ordering wine, not a good pairing at all. Most items on appetizer platter was tasty but my favorite was the Pakora. Very delicious and fried to perfection. Also it came with two dipping sauces/chutney which was fantastic. I am sure if they bottle them most customer will buy it on their way out. For the main course I tried, the lamb Vindaloo and the Dal. Both of them were very good. However, the Dal was something special. Probably the best Dal I had in Alberta. I normally try to avoid vegetarian dishes but if every vegetarian dish tastes like this Dal, I may convert ;). Also on the side, we ordered saffron rice and garlic bread. The bread was freshly baked and tasty. On the other hand, the saffron rice did not taste like saffron at all. I really prefer the Persian version of the saffron rice which is more generous on the Saffron :D I will definitely go back there to try other items on the menu but I am sure whatever I order, I will have the Dal also. read more

Namskar never fails to deliver delicious food and great service; truly sets themselves apart from other restaurants. My favourite dishes to order here is Daal, Lamb Masala, Butter Chicken and of course their Chai yum! I've never had to wait to be seated, sometimes it feels like it takes long to get the food, but its always because I am super hungry by the time I get here! haha I've been eating here since 2005 and the quality has never changed but the service has consistently improved. I'm a regular at Namskar, for good reason! read more

Namskar, you're the very first Indian restaurant in Calgary I ever ate at. You were my friend Ruth's favourite. Since then, you've been a pretty solid choice for me as well. Great service inside, right on top of things for take-out.. You've got your game figured out. Tonight, I popped in to grab some vegetarian friendly options. I love that your menu makes this easy to do! read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED I was invited for a birthday celebration to this wonderful place. It was the first time I tried Indian traditional meals in restaurant. My friends who are from India and Pakistan confirmed that the food served in Namskar is really like home made. After trying it and seeing there several Indian families I am 100% sure that it is true. We came exactly at 2pm when Namskar opens and the place got busy very soon. Namskar is beautiful bright place with simple but appealing nicely decorated and welcoming interior. We were served by our friend Arif. Knowing Arif I knew that he will be very warm and friendly because that is simply his nature. However I was very surprised that on top of that he was highly professional. Arif did not take our friendship for granted. He answered all my questions about their menu, served us promptly and he regularly checked our table the same way as any other tables. The food was supreme and served in beautiful dishes and the menu contained lots of choices. We ordered appetizer, two vegetarian dishes and one dish with lamb. I do not like too spicy so I asked what are the options. On top of non spicy meals Arif also let us know that they can make some other dishes medium so we had even more options to choose from. The three of us were not even able to finish this super delicious food because of a very generous amount. The prices are surprisingly affordable and we all agreed that Namskar definitely deserves 5 stars. We will be back for sure. Go there and enjoy read more

I came here for the all you can eat lunch buffet and I was excited because I love Indian food! It is only $16.95, which is pretty reasonable for all you can eat. They had an assortment of food. I had some rice, naan bread, assorted vegetables, and of course, butter chicken! I personally love spicy food and I found the butter chicken to have no spice to it at all, which was disappointing, but it was still very good. The sauce that was on the assorted vegetables had some spice to it so I dipped my naan bread in that! For dessert I tried their fruit creme, which is basically assorted fruits with a mango sauce on top, and that was yummy. The staff are very friendly and the restaurant itself was very nice. I would definitely come back! read more

Food was very delicious . Food tasted fresh Host was excellent. great ambience , courteous service. highly recommend this place .

About to eat here. Coming from North Americas largest Indian population in Brampton Ontario I am almost part East Indian. Let's see! read more

I came here after much hemming and hawing about whether this place would offer a true east Indian dining experience, and although it was ok, it certainly wasn't authentic. Flavours were totally muted and obviously catered to western pallets as the spice and heat were totally lacking. Ambiance didn't really strike me as Indian and actually looked quite dated. Service was adequate and nothing stood out to me as being spectacular except for the naan. Parking lot is very small as well, so you might have to find street parking nearby. Everything was just meh. If you want true authentic east Indian stick to the deep north east behind Castleridge Safeway. read more

We live in the greater Washington DC area. And this is as good as any Indian food we have ever had. Authentic, good atmosphere, clean, and kind service. Can't recommend it enough read more

It's official: In terms of Indian restaurants in Calgary, Namskar is my favourite. Not to discriminate, but coming from a brown person, commenting on brown food, it's safe to say that my opinion on this holds a certain amount of clout. The restaurant itself is better kept than a number of Indian restaurants in the city and the food is DELICIOUS. I could go there and JUST eat the milai kofta with naan and be one happy camper. Milai kofta is my absolute FAVOURITE thing and for some unknown profound reason, the milai kofta that Namskar makes tastes better than any milai kofta I've ever had. I also highly recommend the mattar paneer and the navrattan korma. Their onion naan is to die for, as is their laccha prantha. For dessert, I highly recommend their ras milai. Their desserts are mostly dairy based so if you're lactose intolerant, you may have to stick to the gulab jamuns. All in all, Namskar has delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere and great service. What more could you ask for? I salute you Namskar; Thank you for existing. read more

Easily the best Indian food in Calgary. My gf is Vegetarian so it is a giant pain finding good food we can both enjoy. So Namskar is a godsend! We have had good service in restaurant, although we usually go with take out. Take out is ready in less than the quoted time quite often, and almost never longer. The food is always awesome, and the portions are very good for the money. We usually have left enough left overs for lunch the next day. read more

Due to circumstances, I always expect Indian Food to be cheaper unless drastically varies from the traditional: fusion cuisine and the like. Namskar is delicious but it comes with a price tag for very good, very traditional food. You have your standard Kormas, Masalas, Vindaloos - only the quality distinguishes it from similar restaurants. I do think they are justified in pricing higher, but considering the size of the portions I always end up feeling a little ripped off (minus one star). Everything truly is delicious. I haven't eaten lunch here, but it is an excellent dinner venue. It is classy without being overly formal, and the lack of a buffet is a good thing for dinner. The naan is delicious, delicious enough that I order a few to go when I eat there! The ingredients are all top notch, and the dishes well presented. I recommend going in a group and eating family style to truly savour the excellent mix of spiced flavours that they offer. read more

I am an Indian food lover. My recent visit to Namskar with a couple friends, didn't disappoint! My friends had never had Indian food before and they choose this restaurant. The place itself has a great decor. The area we were sitting in did seem to get pretty packed, but it wasn't noisy. The waiter was friendly enough, but seemed to be rushing us in making our decisions, so I just ordered for everyone. We had one vegetarian dish, 3 meat dishes, roti and naan and each couple had their own rice. The servings are small, but each dish was enough for 4 people if you don't hog it all. The food was very fresh and not, not greasy, the meat was tender. The bill including drinks was about $50 a couple. Namskar is a nice dinner out, its a bit tough on the wallet for the portion sizes, but trust me you will be full none the less! I highly recommend giving Namskar a try! read more

The owners are actually from Europe (with an Indian background) so I dunno how really authentic their food is as I have not yet been to India. However, having lived in the UK where there's an abundance of good (and equally bad) Indian places, Namskar is probably one of the best in Calgary to represent that style of cooking. The best deal is probably their lunch buffets, a bit more limited selection but what they have is done very well. Dinner is best but I agree that their prices are a little higher than other places with portions lacking slightly. I'd have to rate Clay Oven and Namskar as my go to places for Indian of all the places in Calgary. read more

I took my daughter here on a lunch date and was pleased to have a nice, quiet, experience that also involved tasty food. It was the lunch buffet that can sometimes come at a really low quality but I was impressed by how often they topped up their dishes and how, even near the end of the buffet time, they still provided fresh naan and other staples. The service was prompt and non-intrusive, and my daughter was never left with an empty glass of water. The only down side of the experience was the rice pudding. For years I have made my own rice pudding and absolutely love the stuff, I found this one to taste merely like rice and milk. It lacked flavour, body, and mouth appeal. All in all though I would go back for the buffet and will one day go in for the dinner menu to see what they have to offer. read more

Everything was delicious . I ordered the Paneer Mahkani and Saffron rice, and my bf ordered the Lamb Biryani. We loved every bite and can't wait to try more! The garlic naan was also super garlicky which I appreciated, I feel like a lot of garlic naan breads don't really have that much garlic. read more

Full disclosure: I came here on Father's Day. I'm not sure if it's correlated but the service was so slow that day. It took a long time for our appy to arrive and even longer for our entrees. I usually order dessert but we had somewhere to be after dinner! For the appy, we ordered the paneer pakora, which is home made cottage cheese fried in chick pea batter. I usually love me some cheese pakora but it was rather bland and a bit rubbery. The mint chutney that came with it sure livened it up. For the main, I ordered the chicken lababdar while hubby ordered the beef korma. They were very good in very distinct ways. The chicken lababdar was similar to a butter chicken but with more spices and depth of flavour. I wanted to lick the bowl clean. The korma was a mild and creamy yellow curry which went perfectly with the garlic naan. We also had the saffron rice. Yum. I'll definitely be back but I'll skip the paneer pakora next time. read more

This place is great. Good for pick up and eat in. A lot of really nice texture and flavours. The Saag Paneer is lovely. read more

I had some really great take-out from Namskar earlier this year. In fact, the food smelled so good that I sped home to eat it... and got a photo radar ticket in the mail a few weeks later! I ordered my standard vegetarian takeout order: vegetable samosas, palak paneer, aloo gobhi and dal masoor. Oh, and some rice of course! I had a friend over for dinner that night and then I ate the rest of the food as leftovers: these dishes provided enough food for four large meals. Everything was nicely seasoned, fresh-tasting (and fresh-looking!) and just plain good. I will definitely continue getting take-out from Namskar in the future. You can also eat at Namskar, and I'm sure they have a buffet (maybe at lunch?). My one annoyance would be that their website opens with a painfully slow welcome video, with no option to skip it, so I'm not going to bother checking to find out details about eating in. You can visit their website yourself to find out! read more

Most of the Indian restaurants in town are not bad, tend to make the same ol' stuff like butter chicken and so on as they specialize in northern westernized cuisine. Namskar is no different in this aspect. What makes them uniquely different simply that they are. The food is made fresh, it's tastes better and the service is top notch. Unlike many of the other places I've been in (yes, I'm looking at you unnamed place in Mission, other place on Macleod and especially now closed place on 36 St), I've never once felt unwelcome or even looked down upon. If anything, the staff and the resto is inviting, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is... well... not perfect, but still decent (at least the music seemed right as opposed to Cirque de Soleil or Jack FM). My only complaint was that the kid of one of the staff was running around in the place and it was a little distracting. Restaurants are for the clients, not a day care centre. I also had my first lesson in vindaloo... that is, there are definate levels of hot. When we say vindaloo, we expect hot... but that's western hot. You can actually say vindaloo vindaloo (double ) or just say hot as the regulars or so. Now THAT's how it's supposed to be, with sweat pooling at my ankles as I struggle with glasses of water and plates of rice to try and compensate for the chili heat of the food melting large portions of my taste buds off. They don't advertise it, but I saw it done, and was told by the waiter that it can be done and then warned me against it. As each time I've been there so far, my guests are lightweights in heat, I haven't had the chance... but one day... ONE DAY.... muhahahahhhaaaaaa.... (whoops, losing control of myself...) The nan is made in house, and a definate must. The only annoyance I have with this place is really just the parking. As it's just off the very busy 16th Ave SE, you really have to park on a side street. But that's just minor and barely worth mentioning. Oh, and there's stuff for vegetarians of course. Not being one myself, I have no idea how they taste, but fellow yelpers have said they loved it, so take a gander at their words of joy, pleasure and veggie love. Review #6 of Yelp's 30 Day Challenge 2012 read more

This is my new favourite Indian delivery place. It's a little more pricey than the other Indian places but totally worth it. They have online delivery ($4!) through SkiptheDishes and I've never had any issues with my order. Firstly, my current favourite dishes are: the peas and mushroom rice, butter chicken, garlic naan and the vegetable pakora. But... they are so good that I have to admit that I haven't tried too many other menu items. What I love: - The chicken is really good chicken breast quality and I'm never scared of getting a grissly bit. - The sauces - I could just eat the butter chicken sauce and rice. If I had to. - The garlic naan. Seriously. I currently buy as many pieces as I will have individual meals from my delivery. I've been reliably told that the cheese naan ($7) is not as good as the garlic naan ($3). A cold or rainy day and need some comfort food? This is a great option. The website says 30 - 60 minutes for delivery and you can track the delivery which is super handy - it usually takes around an hour from experience. read more

Would love to give this five stars - food really is awesome and very authentic tasting. Couldn't be happier with it except the Laksha Paratha which is thicker than a quarter pounder with extra cheese. But the veggie options and the daal makhani are excellent as is the tandoor roti. Unfortunately the service is appalling. Downright rude, unfriendly and unhelpful. Well not totally. One of the three waiters was really nice, one was ok (but if there is a coat on the floor which you are stepping over there is no harm in telling the customer so she can put it back on the chair) and one waiter was downright hostile. Weird guy didn't even look Indian. Wasn't sure why he was there and the way he behaved, I am guessing he wasn't sure why he was there either. Owners / mangers of the restaurant should have ironed out their service issues (they all seemed to be present at the restaurant) but they seemed too aloof to be able or willing to do so. Conclusion: get home delivery and you will be in for a treat. Turn up and well...at the least the food will be hotter. Oh it is somewhat expensive for what you get but personally I would pay the extra 25% for the food (to be eaten at home)! read more

Food - DELICIOUS!! Service - great and not so great. I waited to be seated for 10 minutes while there were plenty of seats available because they thought I was picking up takeout, even after three people asked me and I told them I was waiting to be seated. After that, great service! Lamb Korma and Chicken Curry were both excellent with Saffron rice. The garlic naan was also perfect. We also shared a mango lassie which didn't have enough mango, but we were given another one on the house on a second attempt. The portions look small at first, but I definitely had enough left over for lunch the next day, and it was just as tasty as the night before! Prices are on the high end of $$, about $30 per person with 1 dish, rice, naan and a drink. read more

I'm Indian and I do know how a decent Paneer Butter Masala tastes. What they gave me today was just a sauce made of half cooked chopped onions and chopped tomatoes and chunks of paneer. Nothing about this dish connected with the name. Expected something great for the price and the reviews. Can't believe I paid $16 for something I could have made at home in less than 10 minutes. And, oh yeah the garlic spinach rice!!! Don't ger me started on that! Only relief, tandoori roti was nice. Yep, consolation. One big parting Namaskar to this place! read more

Horrid stuff pretending to be good Indian food. Not unlike at Rajdoot on 4th St. SW in Mission, the biggest rub is that these guys know what they are doing! But they also know their market: the bland insipid tastebuds of ignorant caucasians who haven't a clue about what is good food from any segment of the Indian sub-continent. Perhaps the naan bread if hot would be okay, but by the time I got up to make another stab at this stuff, I became so disgusted at being ripped off that I quickly paid half-full, and almost ran out, never to return! Trust me, this stuff not only sucks, but they are deceiving the public into thinking their deception is okay. Do you want REALLY good Indian food from owners and chefs who love their craft, and staff who will flex to accommodate any reasonable request? Let me make some suggestions...? 1. Research the good Indian restos in the city online via Google, Yelp here, Zomato, and Trip Advisor, and go to the restos with 4.5 stars or higher overall. 2. Ask your server to accent the spices without making it more hot? They will then understand that you won't settle with what they are used to serving caucasians, and will diligently work to satisfy you with flavour. 3. Please take a risk, skip the butter chicken, and dive into wonderfully-accented aromas and flavours that will more than just tease your palate. Trust me, good vindaloos, curries, biryanis, dosas and tandoori dishes made from scratch will kickstart a new relationship with this style of cuisine. 4. In general, it's quite possible to pay little more for great individual dishes that often are larger than your appetite, which means take-out for a couple lunches the next day averages down to about $12-15 per meal! Don't let inferior 'lunch buffet specials' trick you! In general, they are not inexpensive or special, and will more than likely represent short-cuts that incorporate food colouring and starches, fake flavours and fillers, cheap oils, sugars and MSG rather than what the kitchen produces on a dish-by-dish basis. In the end skip these types of restaurants and their buffets, and order the cheaper and more nutritious single dishes! 5. In any ethnic restaurant, before sitting down, check out how many suitable 'ethnic' faces are in the place: too many whites could mean bad news. 6. The nutritional and flavour goodness in any resto meal is all about the chef: if an excellent and creative chef is in charge, that MAKES the restaurant. If he or she leaves, often it's 'goodbye' to excellence! Hard to replace a person who has the touch... 7. Good indian food requires that they use 'pre-prepared' seasoned oil (spiced ghee), a special in-house base gravy, and marinated meats. All this takes time and only the best kitchens do this. Test-drive any 'new' resto by ordering any vindaloo! Please keep in mind that in general these principles apply to good Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Greek, Italian, and middle east cuisines. Want balance in quality, quantity and price...? 1. Check out any Raj Palace for good Tamil cooking from the southern India region where many of the best spices are grown: there are three Raj Palaces in the city: Harvest Hills area, Midnapore in the south, 112th Ave. in Royal Oaks. We favoured one cos the chef was superb, but sadly (!), he returned to India... Or try the similarly-good venues Madras Cafe on Memorial east, La Jawad up at McKnight & 56th, or Supreme Dosa along International Avenue SE. After asking for full flavours, no MSG, any curry, chicken tikka, fish dish, vindaloo, and garlic naan or paratha should impress. 2. Northwestern Punjabi? Try Mehtab in Cochrane for excellence. As with most dishes there, their vindaloos are delicious. Again, ask for full flavours. 3. North-central cuisine? Jaipur in Cochrane is good and also highly-recommended. 4. Wonderful Gujarati? 'Eat at Will' off Memorial at 28th Street. 5. Northern Indian/Himalayan? Try Himalayan on far-western 17th Ave. SW. Their lighter spices provide diversity. With your meal go with a quality basmati rice and an order or two of garlic naan, paratha, roti or chappati, and likely be pleased... As well, all of these are more than good representations of their regions, and while getting to know the front and kitchen staff even by name may further confirm some of the hands-down best Indian cuisine in western Canada (AB in general is not great food country). But steer clear of Namskar, and Rajdoot! Even the 'butter chicken' in their buffet - sth I seldom eat - tasted overly-sweet. And they can only continue to trot this bad to poor stuff out if ignorant people continue to buy it! I hate to see people waste money, time and energy on what they erroneously think is good Indian food... Like I said, try Mehtab in Cochrane, La Jawab in the NE, or any Raj Palace are: talk to the owner/servers, and insist on their best? Following the above suggestions, marvel at what good Indian cuisine is really like? read more

First off we had a gem of a server which always makes the experience that much better. The dishes were very flavorful. A couple downsides: chicken in the vindaloo was quite tough, the samosas crust was a bit to much like pie crust . Awesome coconut rice and the best dang gulab jamun in the city read more

This place is delicious. Best Indian in Calgary for sure and we have tried basically every place in town. Get the daal tarka & vegetarian korma. read more

I didn't know you were allowed to substitute rubber for chicken! The chai was very nice, the sauce for the butter chicken was very nice, the naan was very nice.. but honestly, if you're going to charge me $16 for butter chicken, could you at least buy grade-A chicken? I love Indian food and if I go back, I'll opt for the paneer makhani. I would go back if they had a thali (assorted mini-dishes) plate. read more

Order on their website through their online order system which was "down" but he said he refreshed his browser and got the order after 1.25 hours after ordering and was assured they would be able to get it to us in thirty minutes. One hour later the delivery man showed up after hanging up on me two times as I told him where the building was. This was after I called and cancelled my order around the 2 hour mark. He tailgates into my building and shoved his foot against the door and was extremely confrontational had to tell him to take his foot out of the door as we had already starting cooking instant food. Very disappointing experience but a culmination of failures from the ordering system which required me to prepay which might need more work on their side monitoring and using it properly. The food is always good but the service was ridiculous for the price. Bottom line is I don't order food to get harassed by the delivery man and come about five minutes away from calling the police or having to drag them out of our building. read more

This is pretty much my favorite restaurant. I've found pretty much everything I've ordered to be excellent! I generally get the Butter Chicken but I've also ordered the Chicken, Beef and Lamb Vindaloo, and the Chicken Tikka. Their garlic naan is perfectly chewy and the pakora (both chicken and vegetable) are amazing. They are also very consistent. The food is always good and, to date, I have never had a bad or an off meal. When I eat in the service is always good. The staff are prompt and very friendly. When I get takeout, my food is always ready on time and I've never had them mess up my order. read more
