Very nice dining environment. Good Indian buffet. Have been eating here more than ten years. One of the two Indian buffet I enjoy the most in OC area.
Pitty it was almost empty (weekend night). Customer service is one of the best I experienced, very good guy there. Food is very good. Big portions, you take leftovers home for sure.
Nice place. Clean. Looks like theatre. Love it there. Will be back.
Seriously the best Indian food in Southern California. The lunch buffet has lots of options for vegetarians and includes a drink like soda or mango lassi. But by far their Bharta is the best I've ever had.
I love eating Samosa, so that's one thing I try in most of the restaurant. Even though, it was served fresh and super hot, it tasted ok, not so great.
Its been almost a year, I had tried Bharta (roasted eggplant) at any restaurant as previous experiences were all bad. So thought of trying it here and it surprised me. It was amazing, really liked the taste. The quantity was also enough to serve two.
The hotel staff was really kind and helpful in selection. They made sure, you won't order multiple dishes with similar gravy.
Not a real busy place but the quality of the food was awesome and the bread was very very awesome. Wasn't sure if the food would be fresh but it was pretty good. The service was pretty good our waiter didn't seem too friendly but very straightforward but we like him. Overall a very good experience.
Nice Indian restaurant. Very good food. Also can do small parties. my opinion 60 to 80 guests easily. Lot of parking available. Also they do have a bar.
Worth giving 4 starts for Ambiance, Buffet, Hospitality, and for the Price.
We had a wonderful experience. The food choices and recommendations were fantastic. The flavors were some of the best I've tasted as far as Indian cuisine goes. The female owner(?) who took our order was knowledgeable, personable, and helpful. Particularly, when I found I had forgotten my purse at the restaurant after closing hours, I returned back the next day to discover it had been safely tucked away in their office with everything inside accounted for. I greatly appreciated their humanity in my stressful situation. We will definitely return back. We learned they offer catering services, so we plan to cater our daughter's graduation through them. We highly recommend this restaurant for quality Indian cuisine and service.
Still good food and a nice place for a family dinner
My family was all together for a sad occasion, the death of a family member. We decided to go out to eat so we could talk and exchange memories, and I remembered Saagar as someplace that was quiet, attractive and had good Indian food.
We weren't disappointed at all, and everyone was satisfied, from our vegetarian son who likes only very mild Indian food, to me, because of the extra dish of fiery hot sauce they provided. We had a huge assortment of delicious dishes, along with naan and plenty of condiments, and we could all hear each other speak -- a rarity in a restaurant nowadays.
The service was really prompt and excellent in every way. They were not busy -- unfortunate for them -- and maybe things aren't as great on a busy night, but our experience, including the food, was definitely still five star.
One of the best Indian restaurant in Newport Beach. Lots of vegetarian foods available here. Table service is very good. Ambiance is very good. Enough space for sitting. Staffs are very good. Parking is free and has enough space for that. I usually go for their lunch buffet. They have very good dishes for lunch buffet. I love to visit this place once again.
