INCREDIBLE FOOD!! The flavors in these dishes are so incredible and authentic, they have 100 dishes on their menu, and every one we’ve tried has been incredible! The staff is very kind and this place has never disappointed. Prices are very reasonable and the restaurant is nice, quiet, and clean. Highly recommend!!!
Worth a stop for a $15 weekend buffet I’ve had better Indian food maybe because this was Himalayan, but it didn’t seem to have the taste. It was healthy though. Even the dessert didn’t have that much taste to it . The fresh was really good.
I’ve been here a few times now, and every visit has been consistently delicious! Highly recommend trying the spicy chicken tikka masala, butter chicken and the Tandoori chicken - all fantastic. Their naan is pretty filling, and don’t miss out on the veggie samosas- they’re one of our favorites!
Love the food. It was the closest to what we eat in India. I don’t know if I have found any better place than this in San Diego before, it opened only five months ago. Must give it a try if you are looking for authentic food place. Also if you are from northern India, you might not like their Momos as it has too much turmeric for me, but we had Malai kofta Garlic naan vegetables momo and onion kulcha and Everything was good except the momos for me. Our bill came to about $40.
We found this place on the way back from Mission Trails, and it’s definitely going to be our new favorite Indian food spot! We really missed the Indian lunch buffets in San Diego, most of which disappeared during COVID. So glad to have one back! We had the lunch buffet for $15. The buffet spread included classic Indian curries like tandoori chicken curry, tikka masala, saag paneer, and veggie korma. They serve one naan per person, freshly made and super good. Our favorite curries were the tikka masala and veggie korma. The place is newly opened, clean, and not too crowded, no wait for a table. The service was great. Our server looked a bit intimidating at first, but they were polite and quick. 5/5 we’ll definitely be back!
Very good Indian buffet. They have a nice selection of vegetarian and chicken selections. Nothing has a higher than mild heat, so no worries for those that can't handle hot. The chicken in all the selections was tender and juicy. Plus, they serve freshly made garlic naan at your table. The chicken curry had chunks of chicken with bones, but was very tasty.
Finding good affordable Indian food is not easy...believe me I've tried. This place checks all the boxes...great food, freshly made and a great variety. You can either order from menu or they have a great lunch buffet. I will make this my go to for great food.
Don’t let the quiet exterior fool you. This place has amazing food and I’m shocked it is not more packed. The dishes are so incredibly flavorful - apparently I was just yelling yum the whole time I was eating (per my husband haha). Great portions and quality for the price. Fast service and no wait. Ambiance is more relaxed so great for simple weeknight date. Would highly recommend! Already planning when I can try their lunch buffet.
