Came to support a local, family owned business, and ended up finding my new favorite place to get…read moreIndian food! Let's start with the atmosphere, this place is amazingly mom and pop and charmingly decorated. Unlike the place up the road, you don't feel like you're in a restaurant that used to be SOMETHING else. Then the food. We started with vegetable samosas and they came out quick, hot, and delicious. Two were enough for us but I wished I could have had more. For my main, I got the butter lamb done as hot as they could make it, while my guest had the chicken tikka masala at medium. I love super spicy and was not disappointed, it caused some serious forehead sweat but wasn't panic inducing. The food was all served hot, fresh, and had amazing flavor. It came paired with basmati rice that was also fresh and aromatic. On the side we tried the roti and the fresh garlic naan and were not disappointed at either, but have to say the puffy and flaky naan was hands down the best side of the evening. I never once had to wait for a drink refill and was treated extremely well by the wait staff. Do yourself a favor and come support local Indian food in your community, you won't be disappointed!

It looks like they may have a cafeteria-style lunch buffet, but for dinner it is table service. Our party of 5 adults and 2 children got a large table. The staff was extra attentive and tried to keep the kids satisfied. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, along with naan and rice. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food (various curries, etc.). The only minor negative was the heat - it was quite hot outside and they had to bring in a fan to keep our area cool (which worked). They do not offer beer / wine. If I lived in the area, I'd consider returning here.

Updating my review of Red Fort, I made the original review the first week they opened and they were…read moredefinitely still getting their bearings. We have been back DOZENS of times since and have always had a great experience. Red fort is our favorite Indian place in Utah by far.

They seem to have renamed themselves "The Fort," judging by their sign out front. I came here…read morebefore my book signing in Layton because of all the vegan options, and it was mid. There was also a ton of incense burning everywhere (not advertised online), so I won't come back. The naan was good, but didn't remind me of normal naan. It was just a flat, oily bread, in my opinion. It was the best part of the meal. The Chana masala was mid, as was the rice. Neither were anything special, and the rice was not just plain rice like at a lot of other places. The lady talked me down from spice level 5 to 4, but I'm glad that she accidentally put it in as a 5 (judging by the receipt). I'm a habanero person, and I need to stop listening to people who talk me down. I still needed to add habanero flakes. If I ever go back, I'd get it a level 6 (above the normal scale). The hot sauce they gave me had no discernible spice whatsoever and just tasted like mango. I don't recommend asking for that unless you like mild/no-spice liquidy mango sauce. All in all, it's a mid restaurant with a lot of incense everywhere. It's not BAD food and the portions are great, but I've had far better. There's another Indian place basically across the street which may or may not have better food--I haven't been.

The short: A cute…read moreIndian restaurant right off 22nd with cute elevator music, FANTASTIC naan, and good curry The longer: This place is hidden gem in downtown Ogden, I came here because I was curious and haven't seen this place before. One of my favorite parts about the atmosphere was elevator like music with the cute decor, had a lot of that old brick building vibe that Ogden is known for and it all work together pretty nicely. I don't particularly remember what care I got, but I got it with lamb and a hot level spice. I usually can hold my spice pretty well, but this push the limit on that, so for those out there, you will probably want something mild or lower as it was pretty intense, but really good! Now, for my favorite part, the naan was absolutely fantastic. Sometimes you get naan that is really dry and overcooked, but this one was soft buttery and added to the meal to an extreme level . And with it being downtown, you could eat here and walk anywhere in ogden. It's right next to the junction and everything on 25th St. All in all, I definitely recommend as there's not many places like this in the Ogden area. The food in the apps are really good and the general aesthetic was very laid-back. Overall: 4.25/5 $15-$21/meal

I am an Indian cuisine novice but I came here with some friends and had an even better experience…read morethan I anticipated. I'm not a huge fan of Indian flavors, and so I don't typically choose Indian food, but the invitation from our friends who really love it was the perfect opportunity to open our palette a bit more. And I have to say, I have a feeling that this was the perfect place to try Indian food, since most of the time, when someone doesn't like a certain food, it's usually because they've never had it prepared correctly or well. I wanted to be a tad bit adventurous with Indian cuisine without sacrificing my butthole and the Saag Shorba soup was the perfect place to venture. I had no idea what this soup was but man it was very very delicious. I am not even sure what the spice concoction was, but it was heavenly. Then my husband and I split an entree of butter chicken because I knew that would also be safe for us white people who don't need to sit through Jurassic park with a burnt tongue or upset tummy. And it was very delicious. I love foods that are super flavorful without being overpowered by the heat that spices can sometimes bring. The jasmine rice that came with it was lightly seasoned and sooo good when slathered with the saucy butter chicken. We also got a side of garlic naan which was obviously a must. And everything together just hit the spot in my tummy that I didnt even know Indian food could deliver for me. We also ordered a mango yogurt drink. I didnt know that it had yogurt, so my initial reaction to it was that it seemed too warm to be a mango smoothie for how thick it was. But once I realized that it was supposed to be not freezing, my brain made better sense of it. It was very delicious. The host and servers were all super kind, and helped steer us away from dishes that would have been TOO spicy adventurous for us (like the lamb vindaloo). The seating was very nice. Super clean, and served water in stemware. It gives a more upscale, intimate vibe that was really nice for being on a double date with best friends and not having a grip of kids with us like we normally do. I still don't know how much I will personally ever crave Indian food. But I reckon if there ever was a place to make me seek it out, Red Fort will be the culprit.
