| - I went for their lunch buffet and must say that I was disappointed... First of all, I love Indian food and really wanted to like this place... But alas, it was unfortunate....
First of all, the place was nicely located at the end of the plaza and easy enough to get to. Lots of parking lot is always a plus. The inside was nice and clean with a children play area near the restroom. My waiter was very nice, polite and helpful. And for what I can see, all the staff are very nice as well.
Let's talk about the food. Granted I came for the lunch buffet and was told that they were running a back to school, $7.99 special. Sweet deal right!!! Uhmm well let's see.... The buffet has limited selection, which I guess for the price ... It's okay. However, most of the food are lacking in spice (we are not even talking about heat here, just spice) and left me with something to be desired......
My selections were the pakora, which was okay. Then there's the runny eggplant masala, the under seasoned Bombay aloo, and the also runny with almost none left chicken curry (chickie pieces are almost gone) and perhaps the only decent selection of the bunch albeit also left something to be desired, chicken tandoori. The meal comes with a quartered naan... Which again, was only okay. My favorite was the raita with plenty of veggies included.
I also ordered a chai tea ($3) which was definitely the savior of my meal, even though it was on the pricier side. The chai tea had just the right amount of spices and milk. It also came unsweetened so one can add as much sugar as one wants. Definitely the highlight of my lunch.
All in all, I was hoping that I would like this place, but was disappointed at the food quality. Maybe if I had chosen from the regular menu, I will not be as disappointed? But as of right now I do not think that I will come back. Which was a bummer since this place was closer to my place than some of the other Indian restaurant.
