Incredibly authentic Indian food that's sometimes too spicy for us, we've gone here a few times and…read morealways been happy with the food. I want to try the mango coconut curry when we next visit, but before I've had the railway mutton curry, chili baby corn, and lamb seekh kebab. They do not skimp on the spice, you have to be very bold or very stupid like me to eat the peppers that come with the chili baby corn. My family doesn't go here often enough to get every server, but when we have we've always had a polite waiter. The Indian music contributes to a wholesome ambiance, and overall I recommend going!

We've been here many times. 5 stars for food and service always. 1 star this time for service. We…read morehad 2 servers today. 1 of them was cordial, like all the others we've had before. But 1 of them ABSOLUTELY SHOULD NOT BE A WAITER OR SERVICE PERSON. He never looked us in the eye - ever. He threw the plates and take out boxes at us. If we never come back, he will be the reason. He needs a different job. Not built for this. He seemed VERY VERY UNHAPPY. EDIT: I see some previous reviews talking about poor service. People can disagree on food quality, but poor service is universal. You need to fix this or go out of business. Put a smile on your face, be polite, act interested in the job and your customers. Or suffer the consequences of losing business due to poor service reviews. Just think how much more business you'd get IF you served your customers correctly. RECOMMEND: Aahaar. Always polite. Always seem happy. Don't eat an average or even great meal at India Belly with rude staff if you can drive a few miles to Aahaar and get greeted with smiles and politeness the whole meal.

I always look forward to interacting with their wonderful, welcoming staff. The food has an authentic Kerala and Tamil Nadu ( Indian States )touch that sets it apart. Favorites: My son is a huge fan of their perfectly made idli, dosa, and vada. Their fried idlis are also incredibly tasty and a fun twist on the classic! The variety: They have an incredible selection of dosas on the regular menu, and the Aviyal dish here is very good and highly recommended. Special treats: Aside from the regular staples, I am a big fan of their thalis on special occasions--they are a must-try! Bonus tip: Its location makes it perfect to combine with a trip to Snoqualmie Falls for a fantastic day out! If you are looking for top-tier South Indian cuisine with great vibes, this is the spot. Highly recommended!

We came in for lunch and got the Fried Fish, Mutton Varuthakari, Parotta, Iddiyappam, Dahi Sev Poori, two desserts, and a Chicken Biryani to take home. Everything was delicious -- the curry was excellent, with flavorful mutton and plenty of spice. The fish was especially delicious: crispy, spicy, and juicy, and probably the star of the meal. The Sev Poori was fun too, and the Parotta and Iddiyappam were quite good as well. The desserts were lovely. The Chakka Pradhaman was great, with the jackfruit flavor present but not overpowering, and the gulab jamun was nice as well. The biryani was also amazing. It's a very wholesome biryani and it hits a particular spot for us Malayalis (the cashews and the small grain rice are a part of that), and will keep us coming back many more times. Everything was top notch, and you could sense an attention to detail that separates Aahaar from many other restaurants. This was reflected in the warm, friendly staff and in the high degree of quality across all of the dishes. Overall, a lovely experience. We recommend Aahaar highly!

A lot of the plate dishes that you order will probably be boxed up from the buffet. There are also quite a few burgers on the menu. I have not tried the burgers, but I tried a few items from the buffet, and the taste of everything was very good. There was a lack of vegetarian options, though there were several chicken dishes, but only shahi paneer and matar paneer for the vegetarians. They said that some days they also make dal. There was also some veg soup choices in the buffet. The chicken tikka masala tasted like the chicken tikka had been made in the tandoor and it tasted good. The chicken malai tikka was also pretty decent, even though heavy on the cream. I liked the basmati zeera rice and the raita. The shahi paneer was good but the matar paneer was too red and weird although the taste wasn't bad. The salad vegetables seemed like they had been sitting out all day and were all wilted. I would not eat the raw vegetables. The gulab jamun in buffet was ok but a little dense. The chai was tasty but totally cold. I was there at 5:30 PM so it was off peak time so that may be the reason. I ordered a samosa chaat. The samosas were good and hot, but chutneys left a lot to be desired. The green chutney tasted more like pesto, and the tamarind chutney tasted completely off. The yogurt was decent. The chole (chickpea curry) that came on the samosa chart was quite spicy and more like a curry rather than a chaat item. I would avoid the chat items at this place until they improve the taste of their chutneys. There are only two guys in the restaurant they are doing everything from cooking to cleaning to being the servers and cashiers. They are very friendly, but very busy, so you may not get attention if you need water or something else to be served to.you. The owner Jassy needs to hire more people if he wants this restaurant to provide proper service! It is a pretty big space so it has a lot of potential, if they can improve on the service and the atmosphere. Overall, I am giving it four stars, because a place like this was needed in North Bend, and the taste of their buffet was pretty good. However, they need to improve some aspects for this place to flourish.

Visiting from Northern Virginia, I came to Masala Melody in Maple Valley directly after landing at…read moreSeaTac. I was in town to run the Iron Horse Half Marathon that weekend and wanted a solid meal after the flight. I ordered the chicken tikka masala, which came with basmati rice, and after a few moments of thought, added the garlic naan. For the price, both the quality and quantity of the food were excellent. The chicken tikka masala was really flavorful, buttery, and delicious. I asked for the highest spice level, and while it wasn't overwhelmingly spicy, it had a good amount of heat. Paired with the garlic naan, it was sublime. I hadn't eaten breakfast that day, and the meal filled me up enough that I didn't even end up having dinner. The guy there was also nice enough to throw in a mango lassi after I promised to do him a favor. The lassi wasn't my favorite, but I still appreciated the gesture. One other thing I really liked was the serving ware. They seemed to use bamboo, wood, or similar materials for most things rather than a bunch of disposable plastic. As someone who tries to limit unnecessary plastic use, I appreciated that. Aside from the bottled water, it felt like they put some thought into both the food and the customer experience. All in all, a great Indian spot with tasty food, generous portions, and friendly service. I'd definitely come back if I'm in Maple Valley or the Seattle area again. 4/5 stars Last visited: August 28, 2026

They hadn't been open long for that day so there was only one table being served and maybe 2 takeout orders. I got there too early, but the employee was lovely to chat with so I really didn't mind. I went with the tandoori jackfruit. I don't recall ever seeing something like it so I just had to try it! Overall it was really, really good on its own and even better with the sauce they included. I do wish it was a touch spicier, but I'm definitely going to order that again. They have a lot of intriguing menu items and the prices are fantastic compared with other restaurants - zero complaints and pretty close to where I'm currently living?
