Delicious Indian food in Wake Forest!…read more Super kind staff and quick service. Our favorites here are the chicken Korma, the paneer palak, and the garlic naan. They do a 1-10 spice level which I love. I think a 5 has a good building heat and there are plenty of options to go hotter or more mild from there. Great for takeout or in person.

Instead, a very kind man greeted me and escorted me to a table. The restaurant is very bright inside and a little industrial, but decorated in standard well-worn Indian fare. Their menu is filled with familiar favorites and a couple surprise stand-outs like momo and some Afghani dishes. And to my very pleasant surprise, they offer goat as an option in several dishes. I love goat meat, and can't get it very often, since hardly anyone offers it. So I delighted ordered goat curry, 7 on the spicy scale, and a side of raita, in case the kitchen has a sense of humor. As it turns out, I thought the 7 was fairly med-mild, but my spice level in near super-human. But the kind waitress brought me "Spicy Sauce@ which added a delightful kick!! The curry came with rice and a nice papadaam/chutney set-up. And portions were large enough that I took half home and enjoyed it the next day (when it was even better!!). So definitely an A+ experience. Highly recommended!! Will definitely be back!!!

It was not busy when I walked in…read more(noting that I visited this college town during the summer), but business picked up to the point where the one person working the front got busy rather quickly. I was not in a hurry but they could stand to hire some help. Their menu included a chole bhature, and they did a very credible rendition. Even at a medium spice level, it hit noticeably. More importantly, my fried bread and chickpeas came with pickled sides that made for a great flavor contrast in addition to the zingy herbal chickpea curry. I experienced no disappointment in what I ordered. Their menu includes markings for vegan and gf concerns, and their open kitchen offers to customize orders as needed. I also received an excellent papadum set to start with no fewer than six accompaniments. I was a bit surprised their menu didn't include anything in the way of a light soup or salad, mostly heavy comfort food. Having said that, I think they're doing a solid job and will likely be busy when the university is in season.

The host was on the phone taking orders so we had to wait for a few minutes before we got seated. The restaurant has a cozy yet classy feel. Mango lassi was great. Sweet and rich. Aaam panna was refreshing. Vegetable platter was a good one to sample a lot of the appetizers. It had 2 pieces of the following vegetable samosa, spring roll, paneer pakora, vegetable pakora, and gobhi pakora. The lamb biryani was delicious. Service was awesome and everyone was warm. We were well taken care of. Highly recommend.

I'm not sure what was going on outside the restaurant, but there was a very unpleasant odor. Had we not already placed our order, I might have gotten right back in the car. Fortunately, the smell didn't carry inside. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, with lovely blue hues and modern accents that create a welcoming atmosphere. Our food was hot and ready at the promised time. I liked the menu setup, which allows you to choose your protein or vegetables, sauce, and preferred spice level. The mild Tikka Masala with tilapia was excellent. The mild Chicken Saag was a bit spicier than expected, and the spinach is puréed more thoroughly than at some restaurants where the greens remain more distinct. That said, it was very flavorful, and the chicken was exceptionally moist. The Lachha Parantha, described as a flaky bread, was a little overdone and chewy. On the other hand, the kheer (rice pudding) was rich, flavorful, and pleasantly thick. Overall, Lazeez serves fantastic Indian food in Rocky Mount. Despite a couple of minor issues, we'd happily order from them again.

Walking into the restaurant it'll feel bright, airy, and welcoming. To be seated we checked in with the host and were seated quickly. During the week Masala House runs a lunch special from 11 am - 2:30 pm (Monday - Friday) which includes an entree, vegetable soup, naan, rice, and dessert. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and my partner ordered the butter chicken. I definitely prefer the butter chicken as chicken thigh meat was used vs. chicken breast in the chicken tikka masala. Both dishes were excellent and had great flavor. The rice and naan being included was also a nice touch. The vegetable soup at the beginning of the meal was also hot when it arrived and full of flavor. For dessert I ordered the rice pudding which was excellent and not too sweet. If I'm in the north Raleigh area again I'll definitely be stopping by Masala House for lunch.

So they had tandoori chicken, chicken kebabs, chicken tikka masala, and a goat curry. Dessert was tasty as well. I tried the galab jamun which was sitting nice and warm in its delicious syrup. I also tried the kheer (rice pudding). I was happy with it all. I've had better naans but they were a solid 4/5 and came made to order direct to your table. For $16.99 in this day and age, it can't be beat. If i wasn't watching my weight, I'd be here several times a month easily.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and cannot wait to come back. This is definitely a restaurant we will be recommending to others!

As more non-Indian people came in, the sat them directly next to us in a very cramped corner. So about 2/3s of the restaurant remained empty. In the about hour or so that we were there, not a single person came from the festival, so it was just a weird experience. The food was ok. I was a little surprised by how average it was with the reviews the restaurant has. The service wasn't particularly great either. I usually love naan but the garlic naan we had was pretty hard and dry. One thing that was really nice is that the restaurant gave my whole family a desert for my birthday, which is honestly what bumped my experience up from 2 to 3 stars.

Everyone was super friendly from the hostess, waitervl etc. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala at spice level 4, and it was absolutely delicious.

My husband ordered the House Special Chicken Biryani, which included both lamb and chicken, and he really enjoyed it. I'd say his dish was closer to a spicej that's level 3. Before our meal, we were served complimentary crackers and chutney, which were fantastic and a great introduction to the flavors we would enjoy throughout dinner. One thing that really stood out was the portion size. The servings were enormous! These days, with grocery and gas prices being what they are, it's refreshing to find a restaurant that gives you so much food for your money. We both had plenty left over to take home. Great food, generous portions, and a wonderful first Indian food experience. We'll definitely be back!

Indian cuisine is my favorite and…read moreI'm no stranger to the dishes both here in the US and in England, which is other level by the way. One day I will make it to India....but I digress... We were greeted and seated immediately upon entering and I was instantly in love with the decor and the friendliness of both the host and server. We began with water to drink, me skipping a mango lassi because I had decided I would have a dessert today since it had been awhile. My friend was a newbie to Indian food so I ordered for us and kept it simple. Palak Paneer and Chicken Mango Jalfreezie, with garlic naan. The papadoms and sauce were tasty and always a nice nibble while we wait for our dishes. Everything arrived hot and fresh and nicely presented. We were advised if we needed more rice to just ask. This is when the disappointment hit for me. While both dishes were good food, cooked well and nicely presented, the true Indian flavors were missing. I also did not detect mango in the dish that should have been flooded with that flavor. I do order my dishes mild, but I always do, and while that does impact the heat which I cannot tolerate, it has never once impacted the full flavor of all the spices. Until here. So sad, as someone who almost craves those flavors and had been looking forward to them all day. I've gone back and forth as to whether to give three or four stars, because everything really was nice but if I go to an Indian restaurant I really am hoping for Indian flavor. It was missing. If I could give 3.5 I would. My big question is always, would I return? I will not. I live in High Point and will continue to dine at the numerous Indian spots near home.

May be free lots close by as well but I was fortunate not to have to look very hard. There were three young men waiting at the front to assist. We were seated quickly. We got water and I ordered a Kingfisher to start my weekend early LOL. (Unfortunately they did not have it on draft, only in bottles, but it was still really good beer!) They brought us out some (I think) roti (crispy thin flat bread) with three different dipping sauces. A cilantro mint, a charred pepper, and a brown sauce. All pretty good. I ordered the Mulligatawny Soup and the Veggie Platter while my friend got the Chicken Tikka with a garden salad. The soup was just okay. It seemed to be very lacking in flavor at the restaurant. I took the rest of it home and ate it a couple of days later and it was much tastier. I guess it just need time for all the flavors to meld, I don't know. But the veggie platter was phenomenal. My favorites were the samosas (of course!) and the veg pakora. I would highly recommend those. My friend said her chicken tikka was just mid. Her garden salad was big and looked fresh and delicious. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the service either. The waiters constantly refilled our waters and the wait time was not long. They didn't even rush us when we spent an hour and a half at the table. The only reason this is a four and not a five is that there are other Indian restaurants close in this area that I enjoy the food more.
