We went on a Friday night and I was super excited to try the buffet that I had heard so much about. Wonk, wonk no more buffet. I was super disappointed that I couldn't try lots of the delicious offerings. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and DH got the Sheekh kabob. The tikka was flavorful but the spices made my lips numb. A smidge hit. DH liked the kabob and the vegetables it came with had a nice acidic flavor and loved mopping the juice/sauce up with naan. They don't have a fountain for drinks and we didn't get ice for the drinks. Service was a little slow too. It's clean inside. I wish they still had the buffet but we will still be back to try other dishes.

They have ample seating and separate space for parties/larger group. (Ample private parking space btw) We were greeted and seated right away. With a hangry kid with us we requested to get mango lassi right away. But in handle full of minutes remaining order was placed too - Chole Bhature, Aloo Tikki Chat, Butter Naan and Malai Kofta. And then the long wait started. We got our lassi after about 10-12 minutes wait and CB and ATC in about another 25-30 minutes. So far after trying multiple restaurants in multiple cities, 5 star has better Chole taste than others. Bhature was average, we have had better Bhature. Aloo tikki chat tasted better once the hot tikki cooled down a little. Lassi had perfect sweetness but bit watered down than a bit of chunky consistency of lassi. The hostess did check on us in between and apologized about wait due to busy hour. We had easily waited good 30 minutes after finishing our appetizers. But! Finally the food arrived. And it was delicious for sure. Perfectly cooked naan, savory but little sweet kofta entree. The only thing lacking was we had ordered mild spice level but this was definitely a medium. Informed our hostess of this to get a response of well the Indian spices can be spruced down only so much. Agreed but not agreed! Women restroom was clean but out of paper towels, (no air dryer) stayed so till I was there. All in all, great food but too long and gaped of a wait for each item to arrive, okay-ish service. I am willing to give this place one more try and hopefully on a less busier hour before I set my review in stone for this restaurant.

The name sounded interesting so my husband and I decided to check it out. I had a feeling it was…read moreIndian and Mexican food, sure enough that's it. I really wanted to try something mixed, but the worker said it was mostly either or. I really thought there would be more fusion options, but on the menu - the left side was Indian dishes and the right side was Mexican dishes. We did order a chicken tikka taco (sort of Indian/mexican infused) and then decided on butter chicken in medium. For the taco, you can get corn or flour tortilla and we forgot to specify, but thankfully it came out on corn. The butter chicken came with rice and naan (I forgot to ask if I could make it garlic naan) so it comes with regular. For a drink, I got the mango lassi which is like a mango smoothie with yogurt and milk, and he got a mango jarrrito. Our meal came up to about $30, and we decided to dine in. I got my mango lassi very quickly, it was really smooth and creamy texture, very milky mango tasting. I liked it, but my husband didn't care for it. The jarrito has a bottle cap, and on the wall, there is a bottle opener. I didn't even notice it but my husband did, it's unique and convenient. It took about 15ish mins or so to get our food, we like that it's made fresh and was brought to our table. He gave us extra plates as we were sharing our order. The tikka taco was bland, didn't really have much flavor. He gave us two sauces, one green and one red (he said the red is spicy) and even with that it was just ok. It was however very filled. The regular naan was good, especially when I dipped it in the butter chicken sauce. As for the butter chicken, it was decent. We got it in medium spice and it wasn't very spicy to me. The rice paired well with the butter chicken. The food was enough for both of us to share and be full, plus we had leftovers. The inside was quiet, it wasn't busy when we came. They have tables and booths for dining in. They also offer drive thru service. The inside appeared clean. They have 2 restrooms towards the back of the restaurant, one for men and one for women. The women's restroom didn't have any toilet paper.

Authentic tasting and high quality Indian cuisine. Ordered chicken Tikka masala and Chana masala…read more Both dishes spiced well. Quality of chicken high. Portions above average. 16 Oz containers with good meat to gravy ratio. Rice plentiful, more than enough to go with the curries. I felt as if I was eating food from my ex favorite Indian joint in Bloomington while in college (which also was named Bombay Cafe). So similar in quality and taste. Menu smaller than most other Indian restaurants but not necessarily bad thing when they do what they do well. One "wish" they had chaats as they are difficult to come by anywhere other than north side of town. Highly recommend if in mood for delicious, well portioned Indian cuisine.

Then we weren't told that there's a charge for refills of unsweetened tea and she kept offering them and never said anything nor is there a notice on the sign/menu It's not until you get the bill and ask about the extra charge are you informed. There's also a fee for using a card that you don't know about if you pay at your table. All of that being said I can see why people just do carry out here. We ordered the bacon French bread. It wasn't overcooked and crunchy. Had a nice flavor. Dipping cups are very small and you do have to pay for any additional dipping sauces which is fine but based on the size of the cups I could see that being a problem for some The pizza was really good. The dough was light and airy. The pizza bbq sauce combo paired perfectly with the pineapple ham and bacon. Pizza seemed to come out pretty quickly. A medium was the perfect size for us. This place has potential and is in a prime location on Main Street with plenty of street parking. If we give them another try it'll be for carry out. I was torn between rating this a 3 or 4 star.
