| - I have only ever been here for the lunch buffet, but I have out of the five other lunch buffets I have tried so far in Pittsburgh, this one is by far my favorite. I can't say much for the off-menu items, but as long as the buffet keeps putting out a tasty selection, that's what I'll be returning for, because it's hard to pick just one main dish!
The buffet always has naan, plain basmati rice, some kind of biryani, veggie pakoras, and tandoori chicken. There is almost always chicken tikka masala, and chana masala (chickpeas). The rest of the selection changes a bit week by week...usually there is some kind of lentil dish and some kind of potato dish present, and then one more type of chicken. It's not the biggest selection, but I am usually a fan of every dish, so that's fine with me. The flavors of each dish tend to be quite strong, which I love, as many buffets seem to skimp on or water down the flavor of buffet items. Nothing is every really that spicy, but that's how buffets usually are.
The ambiance is cozy - I don't know for sure, but it seems like it's just a family running the restaurant. The front door looks like the front door of my mom's house, and the inside has maybe 9-10 tables seating 2 or 4. There is always just one waiter, and he keeps our water glasses full and clears plates as needed, so no complaints there. Sometimes there are Bollywood videos running on the TV at the front of the restaurant. I tend to enjoy them.
The dessert selection is meh for the buffet, but my obsession with Indian food is directed at curry, so that doesn't make a difference for me.
