Amazing food! Went here last night for dinner around 6-7. OMG! I couldn't have had a better meal. It was so filling and flavourful~ I took many leftovers home

Delicious every time I go. I especially enjoy the tikka masala and saag. I generally go mild, but people I eat with have been happy with the spicier options. Portions are big enough that most people will get two meals out of each order.

I met a friend there recently- we always used to go there for the buffet pre-pandemic. Of course there's no buffet any longer, so that made choosing what to get a little more difficult. Friend and I got the same thing- his mild and mine spicy. When it arrived, mine was not spicy at all. I asked the server when he returned if it could be more spicy and he took it back to the kitchen and returned with it, spiced up. I could've had it even spicier, but I understand their hesitation as the average person in Indiana does not have great spice tolerance. The restaurant was very clean and quiet, and although we were the only ones dining in at the time, many delivery folks paraded through while we enjoyed our meal. As for the reviewer who said there were "rats everywhere", I'm quite confused. Is this the very best Indian food I've ever had? No, it's not. But it's good enough for the price, and if you tell them what you want (spicier!), they are accommodating. Making such a bizarre claim only hurts the reviewer, in my opinion, as it's simply unbelievable. If I were to make such a claim, I'd definitely post pictures, since if they were "everywhere" as claimed, pictures would be easy to get. Incredibly odd thing to lie about.

The food here was very delicious and the atmosphere was welcoming. The meats and curry were fresh and well spiced, but the wait to get them was long (~40 min). We arrived shortly after they opened in the evening, so that may have had something to do with the wait. 🤷‍♂️ Definitely worth a visit if you're into Indian food!

I enjoyed the goat curry very much, and the garlic naan is out of this world. Service was great and they have both indoor and outdoor dining. Try it on a weekend when they have the buffet open. There are so many delicious and fragrant items to choose from.

I've eaten a lot of Indian and this place is THE BEST. Staff is super friendly and place is clean and welcoming. If you're anywhere around Indy, definitely give them a try.

Very good! We dined in and husband got the lamb vindaloo, very spicy and I got the lamb tikka masala, medium spice. They came with basmati rice and we ordered a bread basket as well. Very flavorful and spicy! My medium spice was a little more than I could handle. The naan was great. We will definitely be back (and I'll watch my spice level).
