As usual, I like to arrive just as soon as a place opens. In this case 11:30am. I was greeted by a…read morepleasant fellow and I was told that I had to wait 5 short minutes for the lunch buffet to be ready, no problem there......it'll be nice and fresh! I've read other reviews that mentioned poor lighting, it seemed more than adequate to me even though it was during a sunny day. I grabbed a plate a got to it. I'd like to mention I really don't know anything about Indian food whatsoever, but I do know what tastes good and what is well made. I sampled everything offered on the buffet line at least once, some items several times. My favorite items were the Tandoori chicken, Veggie Pakora, Chicken Tikka Masala, as well as the Lamb Keema Matar and of course the Butter Naan. They offered Kheer Badam a sort of runny pudding for dessert, which was a lighter perfect choice and tasty for the end of my meal! Overall, the food was delicious and enjoyable. The Veggie Chana Masala and the Veggie Curry trays were cold, I'm not 100% sure but I'm thinking those two choices should have been warm. I ate them anyway however! The service was adequate, initially but later I was never asked for a refill of my soda, or water with two empty glasses sitting for some time in front of me. As well as having to ask for extra napkins.........which you'll definitely want to have! Paying your check was an interesting electronic payment experience. No paper bill at all, but a card reader is brought to your table and you pay and tip right there. Interestingly convenient I guess. Pintu's was definitely worth a visit and a great way to try numerous different kinds of Indian cuisine if you're not familiar. The bottom line is I left full and happy I stopped by. Mission accomplished!

I have to tell you, I have eaten in a lot of Indian restaurants--all over the country. (Not in…read moreIndia, lol). You remember I was a food critic in CA and was actually paid for my opinion. :) So when I say that Pintu's Indian Restaurant stands tall among them all, I am not exaggerating. The food is excellent, all made from scratch, highly refined and complex, and amazingly delicious. Happily, except for the fried chicken, there are no industrial seed oils, no Canola. They use butter for naan, ghee for sauces, and tandoori has no oil at all. Yay! Once we tried the buffet and especially enjoyed the tandoori and the chicken masala. I love their rice pudding. A very refreshing meal topper. Our favorites--Nav Ratan Korma, a delicious vegetarian concoction of nine veggies and pureed nuts in a memorable cream sauce, and Lamb Muglai Korma (I'm thinking Korma must mean vegetables), with tender chunks of lamb, simmered with nuts and raisins in a creamy curry sauce---to die for. And, of course, naan--this time a perfect roasted garlic naan, great for sopping up those cream sauces, so not one drop is wasted. Pintu Chawla, the owner, was gracious and friendly (I read some people said he is rude. I suspect they were the ones initiating rudeness). Our servers, Hemanth and Brian were helpful and kind. It takes a lot to make a success of running restaurants these days--more than usual even. Pintu knows what he's doing. His staff is well managed. And, even the Indian music and comfy booths make the stay very pleasant. If there were tablecloths, china, and crystal, it would rival any five-star restaurant out there. But I give it five anyway for the reasons stated. This will be our new favorite for Indian food--which we absolutely love when it's done well.

I've even mentioned it to his son at the Longmeadow establishment and he didn't seem to care. Disappointing for a long time and loyal customer.

I would pass on the soup next time, no lentils. Kind of a cream soup, just a lentil flavor.

I liked that they had an actual drink menu with classics whiskey, vodka, and other regular cocktails. I almost ordered a pomegranate whiskey sour but decided not to drink tonight. Instead I got a pineapple juice drink that was really refreshing. We kept it pretty simple with chicken tikka masala and garlic naan (which I forgot to take pictures of), and it was good. Nothing over-the-top, but definitely enjoyable. I also went a little out of my comfort zone and ordered the pepper shrimp in a coconut sauce. That ended up being my favorite. It was really good, and I'd definitely order that again. Our waiter was very kind. There was a slight language barrier, but he was so patient and still explained things to us. I even learned that the traditional clay oven a lot of Indian dishes are cooked in is called a tandoor. Overall, a really nice dinner. I love Indian food, and I'd go back.

When I first walked in, the strong smell of Indian spices hit me like a wave. Immediately I could tell they cook their food fresh and it was going to be flavorful. The waiter was very attentive. The menu was extensive. Lots of appetizers and main dishes. I also saw a lot of vegetarian choices so it would be good for vegetarians too. We got the meat sampler as an appetizer, garlic naan, goat curry and shrimp tikka masala. It was good size portions and we had enough for lunch the next day. The goat meat was tender and just like I predicted, very flavorful. The shrimp was done just right. The tikka masala sauce was on point! The dishes were very mild so I wish they could've added more spiciness to them! I like a bit of spicy in my Indian food! Overall the bill was just over $80 for 2 entrees, garlic naan and an appetizer. I would definitely come here again!
