I try to take my out-of-town company here, because it is inCREDible. The lunch buffet has a rich variety of delicious vegetarian AND meat-containing dishes. Everything is great, but the vegetarian dishes sparkle the most brightly. Spinach and lentils never had it so good. Honestly, you will NOT go wrong here!!! Price ridiculously reasonable.

The buffet has a large selection and it is excellent food, well prepared not just leftovers thrown over burners. Best Indian we've had!

Out of all Indian Restaurants in Greenville, this one is my favorite. Their weekend buffet is just awesome. I was surprised to see chole-kulche( my favorite). The dinner options are great too. Must try malai kofta and samosa.

It is truly a great deal for the money. It is a buffet place with nice varieties of Indian dishes. The food is made with a variety of spices which give a fantastic flavors but the food is not hot to the taste. The real deal is very luring because the price is under $8/meal per person.

I love going to this quiet Indian food restaurant. The options are great, never had bad service. You can try individual dishes or just try the dinner for two. Go with the lamb...always tender and tasty! They have a lunch buffet that I would love to try! One of my favorite restaurants!

This was our first experience with Indian food. We have always been a bit leery to try it due to a fear of it being too spicy. Tonight we finally decided to give it a try. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the pleasant aroma of food cooking (not the smell of curry that many people associate... More

Pleanty of foot traffic including Indian population as well, was noted. Always a good sign for authentic food. Restaurant is nicely decorated in black and white with gold tone artwork and big brass elephants; crisp, clean look. We enjoyed the buffet on a Sunday afternoon. It was noted that people were ordering off of the main menu as well. I... More

We love Indian food for all the explosive flavors. I don't mean hot. Good spicy food here is not hot (that's what tobasco is for), it is flavorful. The buffet is varied with many different regions of India covered. I do not profess to know just how authentic everything is... I am not Indian, nor have I lived there. I... More
