| - Flavors of India proves my old adage, "the best joints for ethnic food are little holes in the wall". From the outside, the restaurant doesn't look like much, just another business in the middle of a strip-mall on suburban side road, but don't let appearances deter you.
My review is for their lunch buffet only, so take that as a caveat as I've never ordered off the menu. But also, don't let the term 'lunch buffet' deter you either, this isn't some huge Chinese buffet with fried rice sitting around for hours under a heat lamp. Their lunch buffet is small but freshly prepared from the kitchen and has all the standards you'd expect from an Indian restaurant; curries, rices, and noodles. I did my due diligence, or was just really hungry and loving Indian food- you decide, and tried every dish that was available. Everything I had was great, fresh tasting, and flavorful. If you have Indian food and it's bland, then they're a poor imitation - Flavors of India does not have this problem and adheres to it's name.
My surprise favorite every time? Their Indian Curried Lo Mein - absolutely fantastic and a nice spin on the staple. If you're in the area during and want a quick lunch (or in my case, off work for the day and near my fiancèe's office) you'll get a good Indian fix with this joint.
