Amazing food. Top two in AZ for Indian [other being Star of India in Ahwatukee]. I love that they have paneer tikka masala on the buffet every day. Butter/Tomato sauce and you get to enjoy it if you're a vegetarian! Sooo good. They also usually have delicious renditions oif Saag Paneer, Daal Mahrani[sp] Chicken Vindaloo and Chicken Tikka Masala. I try not to eat commodity meat so I tend to avoid the chicken. Sometimes I cannot help myself and I go for the Vindaloo sauce which has sad-chicken juices in it... So tasty :\
The biggest drawback to the place is the service. Don't get me wrong, it's very friendly and well intentioned. But it totally lacks in that fluid, excellent service that can elevate a restaurant experience. The owners handle the service [as well as seemingly everything else] and this can lead to occasional long waits to get your check, or have your card run. There's also a language gap, which would make it difficult for somebody who doesn't know Indian cuisine to get informed answers to questions about the menu.
It's also, as other have mentioned, a bit of a bummer to me that they have a FULL bar, and yet I cannot imagine that if I ordered a drink other than a rum and coke they'd possibly get it right. I know most people don't go to Indian food to get sauced but it's always nice to have the option, particularly if they're going to have the full bar.
Despite all these negatives, I still rate the place tops, second only to Star of India [where the food is at least as good, if not slightly better, and everybody speaks English fluently]
I recently moved very close to this place, which has been a real trial of temptation. So far I've limited myself to no more than twice a month but I'm not sure how long I can keep up that level of restraint :]
