"I have been going to this restaurant for over 5 years and is the only option when I am craving Indian cuisine! I am from up North and have to say it has been very hard to find GOOD authentic food that is not traditionally southern, since I moved here. However, this place does not/will not disappoint. The flavor, spices and care that goes into making this food is commendable. I know good food and consider myself a "foodie" and anyone who says the food is bland, must not have taste buds! Luv this place and was so happy they brought back the buffet on Sat evenings! The Chef, who is the owner, comes to your table and asks how everything was and I can always say, "delicious", that shows that he actually cares about his customers experience and is not just about the money as a few other posters claimed!"

"I was eating the chicken biryani and there was near a foot long hair in it and part of this filthy thing had made it into my mouth. No, resolution was given, I only received some vague apology if that’s what they want to call it. Seriously, it was right at a foot long. I was disgusted by it. I never thought that their service was strong at all, but they failed miserably here as they charged me full price for the meal without any hesitation. I guess they charged me for the hair too."

"If you definitely want to eat the curry-flavored buffet, then lunch is a great option! Note that buffet is only open at noon. Their chicken curry is very good, whether it is hot or not, it is delicious! There's still a bun to eat! I highly recommend it. My lunch bill and tip came to $20."

"Great food, great service, clean and friendly! What a great place. I looked for Indian food with good reviews. They did not disappoint. Walked in, sat down, ordered, served, ate (burped… excuse me), paid and left. Perfect! Also had some friendly conversation with the server. Real nice guy. Anyway, come eat this food! I had the Chicken Tikka Marsala and Garlic Nan. Wow! Good! I like my food spicy hot. When they asked how hot I want it, I was tempted to say extra hot. The server was right to guide me to “medium”. This was perfect for me, and I like it hot. It was hot! Perfect! Great flavor, great taste. Stop reading this long, dumb, convoluted, but true, honest review, and go eat this food! Go… Stop reading this and go…. Go! Enjoy!"

"Alan was an excellent server - very attentive and helpful. The food is good quality with rich and authentic flavors. It’s hands down the best Indian restaurant in Cola"
