One of my favorite Indian spots in the bay! I've been here for both the AYCE lunch buffet and dinner and both are great experiences! AYCE Lunch buffet: There were about 6 choices of curries, a salad bar, tandoori chicken, a bunch of seasoned veggies, and various rice dishes. I'm not sure if they rotate their options, but the day I went everything was so tasty! I appreciate how well seasoned and fresh everything was. We were also given the option of plain or garlic naan to have with the curries they were serving. It's all self serve, but all of the employees are there to help you get more water and explain what everything is if you're curious. It can get super busy, though, so you may have to wait to get some of their more popular dishes like the tandoori chicken. Loved the experience because it allowed me to try things I normally wouldn't order. The total for all you can eat was about $15-16, totally worth it! Dinner: Dinner is not buffet style. You order off of their menu like normal. Also a great option if you know what you like! Some of my favorites are saag paneer, chicken tiki masala, and lamb vindaloo. The chai tea is always amazing and perfectly spiced. Service is always fast and friendly and there almost never a wait because of how efficient the restaurant is. Overall: Quick, great food, good service. Would recommend!

There's so many Indian food places around here that may have better quality food or service... BUT what makes this place special is the lunch buffet. I went in for the first time and I must say this is one of the better Indian food BUFFETS we have here in the peninsula. The workers set you up with 3 types of Naan (Regular, Butter, or Garlic), come around regularly to refill any water, and the rest of the experience is determined by how well you navigate the many items on the buffet. The best part of all this, the entire experience including tip cost me around $20. So you can expect me back here another day for the buffet.

When my husband found out that they served lunch buffets on weekends now, we immediately came back to give it another try. And I am so glad we did because everything was delicious! Will definitely be a returning customer now. Clean, fresh, hot delicious yummy Indian buffet!

Buffet review Taste: Fine to Very Good Service: Adequate Value: Excellent Ambiance: Adequate (or Irrelevant?) Very² Good: Matar mushroom curry. You should try this. You will understand regardless of your flavor profile bias. Very³ Good: Vindaloo curry. This recipe included a minor citrus flavor and wow³, it works. Conventional vindaloo is my jam but I will come back for this particular vindaloo. You may or may not care and that's fine. Most people are not ready to receive the Curry Truth.
