Sad News, my fellow NIBers. The buffet has been discontinued indefinitely.:-( I was surprised and disappointed to discover this today when my sister and I went there for lunch. A couple different boring combo plates are now available, with some variations possible. Of course, there is still their delicious chaat menu and their regular menu. Lunch business was nearly non-existent, not surprisingly At least one group, that we recognized as regulars, left when they discovered the buffet was not available. No doubt, others did as well. read more

Chicken Tikka masala sauce was super runny like soup, and I didn't get the sweet red sauce with my samosas. Nothing great or outstanding o report about this place..... read more

I used to come here at least once per month on weekends, food was OK not great by any means, i stopped coming here as every time i went to this establishment the customer service was beyond bad, before going to this restaurant i suggest you look at all reviews you will tell the owner doesnt care for its customers and acts like they are doing you a favor in serving you. I know spend my money at flavors of india , much better food and customer service. read more

Awesome food. Never knew this gem was so close to me downtown. Loved it! Chicken curry was so good. Be careful. Mild is pretty spicy medium is very spicy. read more

This place is awesome. It's my new favorite Indian restaurant. My boyfriend and I eat here so much we worry that the owners will think we're stalking them. My favorite new discovery there is the Samosa Chaat. I'm extremely picky about Indian food and am rarely impressed, so for this place to be right in my own neighborhood is a dream come true. read more

The food was ok nothing special and I missed the part of the description that said bad for kids....which is very true.. The food is way too spicy..for kids. Aside from that I would get take out from them if I was in the area looking for Indian food. read more

Fantastic food! VERY flavorful, great variety, quite inexpensive. Perhaps the third best India food we've had, at any price. Don't be put off by the decor, which is thoroughly strip mall-y, thrift shop-y, and makeshift (the dining room is around back of the grocery). The food arrived quickly and the staff was responsive. (It was 7pm on a Tuesday, with fewer than 10 other customers, all Indian-American.) We'll definitely be back! read more

The food was good but the portions were too small. Also the ambiance could be improved and the place could use a little cleaning. I might be back in a month or two to see if they've gotten better. read more

Have been here a couple of times. The food is great and so is the service. Love this place.

I stumbled across this place when my go-to Indian restaurant was closed, and I couldn't be happier I found this place! Seriously tasty, and a huge amount of food. read more

There is no more lunch buffet. They still serve the same food, but now you have to pick between two and three dishes, depending on which combo plate you pick. This means your variety is very much limited. What used to be a solid four-star buffet, is now a three-star Panda Express like experience. Sadly, I will not return. This was a very poor business decision. read more

Over priced under spiced and lacking thickness in the sauce. I am british and have always been a big fan of indian cuisine. This is a pass for me in future added to being cold on delivery. Not many options on good indian food in phoenix......shame... read more

This is one of my favorite places. The food is delicious and very affordable. The food does not come out fast, but it is well worth it!! I almost didn't want to write a review for selfish reasons, but I would also be very sad if this place didn't stick around for lack of support. This cafe/market is a Coronado 7th st GEM!! read more

I love this place we order food once every two weeks consistently. Great flavor and good prices.

I don't know what they put in that butter chicken, but man it has me hooked!! So spicy, aromatic and delicious. The naan is great too. The food is always hot and freshly made. This was only my second time - I'm not big on Indian food because I don't like curry, but I have also tried the Tandoori chicken, and that's good too. Combo prices are pretty reasonable. I only give four stars because their customer service needs work. I asked for the combo bowl, the lady asked me what size I wanted, I said 16 oz. because there was no indication that the combo bowl was a specific size. When she rang it up and I questioned the price, she got irritated and said "You said 16 oz, not bowl. Next time tell me bowl." Okay, well...next time listen, because I did say "bowl." I get that there's a bit of a language barrier, but politeness never hurt anyone regardless. Luckily the food is delicious enough to bring me back. ;) read more

Guys, I have lived in different states, tried different Indian restaurants. Being from India, I also know what they are cooking and how their food tastes like. I must say food is 2 out of 5 stars. They had buffet and greed took over them and now they serve you small quantity of food for 7 bucks and also 9 bucks. If you pay by credit card you will get a stink eye------ Beware. I DO NOT recommended this restaurant. I also have doubts that they just say its a Indian restaurant but in actual it isn't. read more

This is a favorite place for basic Indian food at night, or a fairly substantial lunch buffet. It is also interesting and entertaining to walk around the market and make unusual purchases. It is never crowded in the evening and it's fun to watch the Bollywood musicals on the televisions. read more

Beauty is soooo nice to me and my family. My mom is in a wheelchair so most tables are too low that she can't reach her food from her wheelchair's height but beauty is always nice enough to bring a box to elevate my mother's plate. Food is amazing!!! They have already changed their serving ways and it is now back to being a buffet!! There is always fresh and warm naan. Can be a little pricy depending on how many people but it is sooooo worth it! Don't let the looks on the outside fool you. Also, there is a grocery store but I can't give any review on that since I haven't bought anything there myself. However, I have taken a look around and there is a VARIETY of things. From spices to teas. read more

Not only did they get the order wrong, the food for those non toufu items that we could eat were terrible. No recourse with the delivery by doordasher so I only highly suggest you not try this flavourless place especially if you are having it delivered. read more

Great little market with attached restaurant (or dining hall). Weekdays they have a buffet, which is always well stocked with the usual Indian fare, incl. veggie and meat dishes as well as salad and desert. You get free Naan and they make a very good and strong iced tea. It's in walking distance from where I live, so I am lucky and get to stop by often... :) read more

Went for the buffet. Great meat and veg choices. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I will be back.

Really authentic Indian food! The food was great, and for the first time in my life the waitress gave us a few extra dollars that we left for a tip because it was 'too much.' Will be going back soon! read more

I love it. The butter chicken, korma, and other dinners and sauces are so good they must put drugs in them. It is very affordable, especially considering how expensive Indian food is in phoenix. It is relaxed, low stress, with Bollywood style videos playing quietly. The waitress we always get will scowl at you if you make a bad choice so you'll always know you're getting good food. The soda is usually a bit flat though :/ no real complaints otherwise! read more

Great, tasty Indian food. I love this little buffet. It is hard to find better in the Phoenix metro area,.

My wife and I picked up Samosas and Rasmalai for a quick lunch today. And this was my worst experience in a long long time. I opened the samosa to find a big lump of uncooked flour, took it out and continued eating. My wife bite a piece of nail...vomitted inside out and became very sick. I took some pictures which I intend to forward to the health department. read more

RIP OFF! I ordered takeout from this place, and the amount of food they give you for an "entree" is pathetic. Not even enough to fit in a small cereal bowl. Their prices are high too, which would be fine if the food portions were adequate. read more

Good tea and they have great sweets here! Whenever I go here I plan to get drowned by their tea!

Was disappointed to find that the buffet was discontinued. Would come here at least once a month. Restaurant was empty. Can't see them staying in business much longer with the current concept. read more

Oh wow. We went to this place Tuesday, November 17th 2015. The grocery store looked average, and the environment smelled very authentic. Upon entering, I noticed that out of the 20 or so tables in the restaurant, only one was occupied. This was a little surprising considering it was right around 5-6pm; perhaps that was during their dinner lull in business. My friend and I were told by a gentleman there to have any seat. As we walked towards a table, the hostess (I'm guessing) told us to sit at a specific table, near the end, right next to the other occupied table. I would have preferred to have some space, and there was plenty of it in the restaurant. Oh well, no problems. After being seated, and looking over the menu, I placed my order for Chicken Tikka Masala, with the option of their Thali dinner. I don't remember everything that was listed on the menu the the dinner contained, but I do remember being excited about the pickle in particular. My friend went to order, and the waitress just gave her a death stare, and suggested she tried something else. Anyhow, an amount of time passes and the waitress brings out our food. We each ordered the full dinner, and it was delivered on what appeared to be a stainless steel dinner tray, more commonly used in the Army or in prison. There was no pickle to be found, but a strange assortment of extra items. Some mysterious white sauce (pudding?), which tasted strange. Some type of sweet potatoes, which was alright. A very very sparse, generic "salad" consisting of one slice of cucumber, one cherry tomato, a couple rings of onion and a few pieces of lettuce. There was also something I'm not sure what it was, some sort of nut thing with a vinegar-type sauce? Tasted awful. But my main order, the chicken tikka masala was acceptable, and the naan was very good. When we asked what the mysterious foods were, the hostess completely ignored our question. I asked for the check, and the hostess asked why I wasn't going to eat the rest of my food. I told her I needed to get on the road and I had eaten everything I wanted, and the food was very good. She then told me I should try to buffet then, and pointed over towards an empty buffet that closed a number of hours earlier. I was confused by this. The hostess brings out the check for my friend and I (Separate checks). My friend puts cash in hers, and I put my credit card in mine, and we wait for a while for the hostess to come collect these and finish our business. Some time passes, and the hostess brings my friend's book back with change in it, but we notice she is also palming a $20 - the same $20 my friend originally was paying with. My check was MIA, perhaps the credit card machine is taking a while to process? The hostess just wandered past us to the back of the store, where the $20 in her hand disappeared, and she just continued hovering around us giving us bad looks. Perhaps 5 minutes later the hostess finally brings my card and receipt back, and then proceeds to stand there (With her hands full of our used dishes) and waits for me to fill out the credit card slip. I was not going to fill it out in front of her, and I've never had such odd service in my life. After waiting and realizing she isn't going to leave, I just scribble in a small tip, close the book, make sure to grab my receipt and we get ready to leave. As we proceed out, we noticed two cockroaches (live) on the floor under the table next to us. They most likely watched us eat our entire meal. All in all, the food was alright for what I ordered, the vibe and atmosphere was terrible (although the chair was not uncomfortable), the hostess was the center of my review though - she spent more time sending hateful gazes at us than anything. And then ignoring our questions, and just saying odd things, coupled with the overall odd feel of the place (no one else came into the restaurant in the over hour we were there), I would absolutely not recommend going here unless you want a story to tell. The service took a while, especially considering the other table had their food by the time we were seated. It took us over an hour overall for the entire dining experience, and it did not take us but a minute to figure out what we were going to order. TL, DR: main course was alright; super weird and slow service, weird vibe, and lack of cleanliness = an experience to remember. read more

I pride myself on being open and adventurous when it comes to trying out new spots to pig out at. This happened to be one of the experiences I would say wasn't bad but definitely a memorable one. Google maps suggested this as an Indian buffet... so I thought why not. Upon arriving we were greeted with a not so genuine hello accompanied with a not so genuine smile. The food was good but not worth visiting again since the service was not on par. As I am writing this wonderful review I and my lovely fiancé are still waiting for our naan bread. It is now going on 10 mins... in conclusion good food... not good atmosphere or vibes. read more

Shame on them!! Prices on groceries are almost double compared to other Indian stores in the valley. They charged me same item twice and when I called them, they hung up on me. I went to store and they kept me waiting while they went through the video as they did NOT believe the customer. They came back after a while and refunded the double charge. Did not bother to apologize either. Extreme insult to a customer tht spend over $50 and stood there to pass the video test. read more

Very bad Custmer service in Restorent. Your order something and gave you something else. The lady waiter she don't know how to smile how to take the order and serve on right table . I m not recommend to my friends and family. read more

Lunch buffet is medicore at best, def. better food to be had elsewhere. I usually only go there for the chaat. However, today we were informed that the restaurant wasn't taking any chaat orders as the kitchen was too busy, all after the waitress had already taken our order. Meanwhile, one or two other customers were given chaat orders to-go, I'm guessing they called ahead of time. read more

Try the samosa... these are really good! We got the chicken tikka, and lamb korma meals... both were fantastic. Definitely a great place that won't disappoint. read more

Great Indian food and good prices. Great store to buy all your Indian cooking needs ... Will be back.

Chicken curry and chicken korma were mediocre - very heavy on hot chili and tomato, light on other spices. I don't think we'd go back.

Awesome! Followed Pierre's review and ordered the Chaat. Great food. If they put the food in a high class restaurant they could charge double the price. The only downside in the atmosphere...it's kind of fast foodish being in the grocery store. read more

i still love woodlands the best but a lunchtime craving for indian food paid off when we went to new india! i got the palak paneer combo- the portions were great as was the food. the spicy chutney they served was amazing. the gobi was even better- spicy and not overloaded with sauce. the prices were decent and the service was great- i'm assuming it was the owners that were working. i really want to go back and try the buffet too! read more

What a great deal on great food. Of course, this 5 star rating is for a $7.99 buffet; I'm sure fancier restaurants would have better food. But the value is excellent and the staff are courteous and solicitous. I especially liked the tiki Marsala, yum yum. We are definitely adding this restaurant to our rotation! read more

I stopped in by chance and glad that I did. The Indian buffet was very good and fresh. The only thing I would change is to increase the heat level a bit. I will definitely be back. read more
