| - Indian food being my favorite food in the world, i have high standards when it comes to trying new restaurants. I have been to Indian restaurants all over the country, and even many in Europe, so i think it's fair to say i know my indian food! This place is, without question, GREAT! For starters, the atmosphere is wonderful which is such a HUGE breath of fresh air from all the other run-of-the-mill strip mall restaurants that do nothing to enhance their interior. Very tasteful and classy inside, beautiful decor and beautiful bathrooms. Another plus is that Indian music was playing throughout the speakers. Call me crazy, but i think that is wonderful. Many of the ethnic restaurants i have gone to in the west valley love to have large tv's blaring for some reason. It was nice to actually have some soothing calming native music playing while we ate. Waitstaff was fantastic and even offered us complimentary naan which we did not order.
I have been several times now, and this place never disappoints. Twice I have ordered off the menu for dinner, and twice I have eaten the buffet for lunch. This is, in my opinion, the best Indian restaurant in all of Phoenix, and i have been to many.
The food has always been very fresh. I am vegan so i can't speak for any of the meat dishes, but I've had a wide range of the vegetarian offerings and all have surpassed my expectations. This tastes like food I'd get in New York City.
For those that have commented on the language barrier, give me a break! What do you expect when you eat at an ethnic restaurant. Cut the waitstaff some slack. They have always been very generous and accommodating -- very friendly people. Make a little effort to get your order across to them, and you won't be disappointed.
