★★★★★ Brilliant chicken tikka masala. Ate there a few times. Loved it. Slightly expensive but worth it. Posted on August 15, 2019

★☆☆☆☆ Very expensive place. They charged me $ 5.99 for my 3 year old. Food is bland & tasteless 😟 Posted on March 27, 2019

NR We tried biryani and chicken tikka masala but Posted on April 13, 2018

★★★★☆ Loved the halal food. Decent quality. Pricing were high. Nice place and staff were very good in explaining and serving. Service has opportunity. Posted on January 2, 2017

★★☆☆☆ Prices are touching the sky. Food was good. Customer service is appropriate. Posted on June 1, 2016

★★★★★ Good food I recommend it the chicken beryani was delicious and goat masala .. Clean place i will visit it again that for sure! Posted on January 2, 2016

★★★★☆ Good Halaal Indian food Tried the butter chicken and tandoori chicken and was good. Kids enjoyed the food Posted on December 18, 2015

NR Amazing food and good servers, friendly... Posted on September 5, 2015

NR Great food, taste of buffet items was yumm...all items in buffet was fresh .great service , great sitting place decorated well...I love this place Posted on June 17, 2014

★★★★★ very tasty good food,love their tandoori and enjoyed the buffet,,keep going guys... Posted on December 21, 2013

★★★★★ I ate from the menue not from the buffet. The food was excellent Posted on November 16, 2013

★★☆☆☆ 18% gratuity even if you take buffet! Post sign to notify guests. Would not have eaten there if knew ahead of time. Generic food selection in buffet. Taste was fine. Active location. Posted on September 23, 2013

★★★★★ This place is so nice! the inside is so clean. and their buffet is amazing! Posted on September 6, 2013

★★★★★ I have been here many times for lunch buffet, staff is friendly the price is reasonable and the food is great! The buffet has a small selection but it covers all the bases! Well worth it! Posted on January 12, 2013

★☆☆☆☆ Place is neat and clean but good is average. Posted on November 28, 2012

★☆☆☆☆ i am sorry but portion sizes were dissapointingly small during my last family orders of take away. and most foods have a western mindset of taste.like you find in the UK..yes it is a clean restaurant and most people working there are friendly..and you can find great deal on lunch buffet, but i come for dinner for the family and we end up being hungry because there portions for strictly 1 person..not ever enough to share but prices are like other places that are halal where you can at least share with 1 other person but not here. Posted on November 21, 2012

★★★★☆ Passing through Orlando I stumbled upon this clean, large and friendly place. Food was good, however was extremely disappointed in the portion size of the grilled platter. Almost $14 and it did not even fill the small oval plate they serve it in. Tikka Biryani was delicious and serving size was generous. Will come back for the boneless Biryani. Posted on October 27, 2012

NR Food was good and so was the service - the interior atmosphere is actually one of the best I've seen. I would recommend this restaurant Posted on September 8, 2012

★★★★★ The food and service was really great. we had chicken tikka masala, chicken biryani which was really amazing. Recommend this place to All. Posted on September 7, 2012

★★★★☆ When I first walked into this restaurant I was actually quiet suprised. It looked clean and spacious. Judging from the outside I wasn't expecting something like that. But I guess you should never judge a book by its cover. The food wasn't anything out of this world, but I really had nothing to complain about. I see a lot of people complaining about portions, I feel as if I got my moneys worth. My wife and I shared a chicken Tikka Masala and a chicken kabab roll. We were more than full. Best of luck gys. Posted on September 4, 2012

★☆☆☆☆ i recently visited this restuarant after a long hiatus, hoping things had improved, the restaurant is clean and spacious, and they did a good remodel, however, the entree i ordered of kebab was probably the worlds SMALLEST portion for the price i paid..it was around 10 dollars, but the tiny morsels were'nt worth it all!!..plus it came with a side of NOTHING..i remember in the past, they gave me some white basmati..this time, i got a napkin instead..buyer beware, u will be hungry and it's more of a kids meal. Posted on August 18, 2012

★☆☆☆☆ I agree with others it is not worth your money. Distasteful food little portions burnt Naans and bones in butter chicken Will not recommend Posted on May 11, 2012

★★★★★ the have a great lunch buffet with tandoori chicken, goat korma and fresh naan even sometimes biryani rice Posted on April 30, 2012

★★★☆☆ this is middle tier, mass produced style food, the 3 piece tandoori chicken dinner i had was plain aweful, it did'nt even taste like it came from a tandoor, and it was "warm" seriously doubt it was fresh, but the tandoori shrimp was splended, so was also the beef pasanda, all served with white rice, nice service, nice decor, some mediocore food, some good food, unfortunatley not counting the lunch buffet, the dinner portion sizes come up a little short, just a bit smaller then your average place, for the prices asked. Posted on January 12, 2012

★★★★★ Great food, decent place for families. Good service also. Tasty food! Posted on January 10, 2012

★★★☆☆ Good place to go with family. We also like the food and not too expensive. Posted on December 27, 2011

★★★★★ Nothing but praised for this resturant.we are a group of 8 people visiting from Canada and it's always a pleasure going here as a matter of fact we include this establishment as part of our vacation, it's a family run business always professional and get this they will even accomodate you by stay open if you call them ahead of time from the theme park. something we often do since we visit this resturant alot and when most would be closed early.If you in the Orlando area you owe it to yourself to pay them a visit.the only complaint here I wish they renovate the restrooms...the resturant authmosphere is inviting. Posted on December 12, 2011

★★★★☆ Lunch buffet was really nice. Posted on December 5, 2011

★★☆☆☆ the portions need to be bigger for dinner..the dinner items sometimes tastes like it was warmed up left overs from the buffet items..speaking of buffet..it definitely has legs, and for the price the lunch buffet is great..i'm sorry to say the dinner portions are dissapointing, especially the meat entrees, for what your getting and what prices you are paying..please improve dinner portions, otherwise we'll keep skipping during the dinner hour for elsewhere, love your lunch buffet, although too bad can't make it much due to job timings.i'm rating poor for dinner experience and above average for lunch buffet. Posted on December 2, 2011

★★★★☆ I love coming for the buffet here. It' really is worth it. But you gotta work on the chicken kabab roll. Thanks for the amazing buffet food you guys! Posted on November 29, 2011

★★★★☆ I also initially hesitated but the food was fantastic, tasty and spiced just right. The nan was soft which was a plus. Portions are little small to what we use to in the uk. Definitely give it a go. Posted on October 2, 2011

★★★★★ After reviewing previous reviews I hesitated to go to this place, but once I gave it a chance I fell in love with their chicken tikka masala. I like mine extra spicy. :D I also enjoy their buffet! And the food is affordable. This is my current favorite Indian restaurant. Posted on September 22, 2011

★★★★★ I really enjoyed the chicken biryani and the shrimp korma at Ahmeds. They also have delicious samosas. The prices are very reasonable, the portions were adequate, and service on point. My wife and I enjoyed our meal and we would recommend Ahmed's Indian Restaurant. Posted on July 6, 2011

★★☆☆☆ the prices are astronomical to what you are receiving at the dinner table...i would even go as far as saying some of the entrees were the smallest portions i have seen...my daughter who is only 8 years old even felt hungry after eating what was an "adult" meal,..so basically the food is run of the mill,..nothing special...but not bad either..but the prices are way out of line..again..because of my career i can't go and try the lunch buffets, which as advertised looks like a great deal for what u r getting..but dinner leaves you hungry and hits your purse hard. Posted on May 26, 2011

★★★☆☆ the food served to me was NOT warm at all..it might have been prepared,..then set out for maybe 10 or 15 mins before handed over to me...rather unpleasant,..only because they were not busy at all on that particular weeknight..they can learn a thing or two from other establishments about running the food out as quickly as possible. Posted on March 22, 2011

★★★☆☆ the tandoori chicken tikka here is pretty underwhelming akin to pasting it on and cooking it.my partner had the beef pasanda and they say it was very good and tender, but i won't eat red meat if i can help it so i can't review that meal but mines was no better than what i can cook up at home, the saving grace was the shrimps. real tasty but overpriced. Posted on January 9, 2011

★★☆☆☆ This is not a good place for Indian food. I am writing this review while I am waiting for my bill at Ahmad's. If you go there, do not expect high quality of Indian food. Posted on December 29, 2010

★★☆☆☆ dissapointing in terms of quality and taste, very bland and generic curry flavour for every dish. Posted on December 27, 2010

★☆☆☆☆ ..be sure to doublecheck and triple check your orders that you leave the restuarant with and do not wait until you arrive home to see if you are getting taken. The menu clearly states the entrees are accompanied with plain basmati rice..i placed 3 separate entree orders to go (curries) along with 3 keema naans..the basmati rice count should have been 3.since i have paid in advance for them..my basmati rice count in the bag? ZERO!.(can i not even have one?)..this is unacceptable and there is no excuse for cheating customers out of what is rightfully there's and prepaid for.now is it the customer's responsibility to drive all the way back to the restuarant? or should have the kitchen staff or servers verified everything is as stated?..this is a rhetorical question..may allah guide you in doing fairness with your loyal customers. Posted on November 8, 2010

★☆☆☆☆ Visited with family in first week of August and was very disappointed. While the waiter (named MOHAN) was nice and friendly, the food quality was horrible. The serving size is very small compared to price. The worst part was that they charged over $10 mandatory service fee for serving my wife and I and three children (ages 7 and 10). When I complained he said parties of 4 or more are charged mandatory service fee. I felt they cheated me ... unless someone can verify that as their policy. Posted on August 7, 2010

★★★★☆ I really love the service and the owners of this establishment very good food and ppl ! Posted on July 27, 2010

★★★☆☆ ..my favorite part about this place is the service..they are really attentitive and do their best...the food is so-so...i can recommend the lamb chops as they were nicely sized portions..however the meat currie dish was kinda "cold" and tasted like leftovers warmed up..stick with the BBQ items and fresh breads and you should leave happy. Posted on June 23, 2010

★★★★☆ Good food and professional service Posted on May 30, 2010

★★★★★ I ate at this restaurant few days ago. you pay 10 USD for a nice selection of lunch buffet. I liked the food in this place, and I'll defiantly visit it again when I am around. I liked that they don't serve alcohol. this is a big thing for me. Go on Ahmad, May Allah bless them. Posted on May 16, 2010

★★★☆☆ The food is average, probably "Auntie" can cook better at home :) Service is good. Overall it's worth trying, but nothing special about this place. Posted on January 20, 2010

★★★★☆ Very good food and prices reasonable. People from south India Muslims. Service was good. Whatever we ordered was very good. Posted on December 30, 2009

★★★★★ Went on a Sunday night and ordered passion fruit lassi, mango lassi, samosa chaat, chicken jalfrazi, seekh kebab, and whole wheat paratha (total was $33). Everything was excellent. Especially the kebabs. The jalfrazi had whole pieces of cardamom which I'm not much for. Some people like it though so I'm not taking points off for that. Staff was nice and food arrived fast. Would recommend again. Only downside is the area doesn't appear to be very nice (neighborhood is a little run down). Posted on November 8, 2009

★★★★★ our family is from south africa,, we had dinner there last night and it was great, service, food and owners, i would highly recommend this place to all our people back home. Posted on June 27, 2009

★★★★☆ We are Canadians who recently spent a month in Orlando and as we were eating out daily, we tried many halal resturants . We ate at this resturant many many times, and found the owners as well as most of the staff very cutomer oriented. The food and service are excellent, and the new owners make every effort to make sure you are well served. Their servers pick and serve your plates with a napkin and never touch the glass from the rim, which is great from a health point of view. Food is well priced and plenty for each person's serving. We understand that present owners are relatively new, and so in fairness, they should be rated for their own performance. The previous reviews should not be a consideration, in fairness to the new owners ,who are working so hard to present a positive image. Highly recommended for a fair value and taste! Posted on March 9, 2009

★★★★★ new owners.. food is a thousand times better.. awesome buffet, the staff is very attentive and nice.. AMAZING mango lassi as well as goat curry... again lunch buffet everyday I try to go as much as I can.. always satisfying and fulfilling. Posted on February 22, 2009

★★★★★ Sat Day Buffet $ 8.99 all halal food.All Muslim should go there.Good food & good 2 guy. Posted on October 12, 2008

★★★★★ good halal food n good pricing we were there for 10 days n we use to go every other day Posted on October 7, 2008

★★★★★ This establishment has just been taken over by a family from Trinidad (?). they are very nice ppl and they are very attentive to service. The food is very good and they have a buffet which is so worth the price. The chicken tandoori used to be super good, but the recipe has slightly changed. With this new take over, i think their ratings will go up, and all luck to them. They really try to make it better. Posted on August 13, 2008

★★★☆☆ NEVER eat-in at this place. Only take out or have it catered. They are famous for catering at desi functions, and the food is pretty good! but they will take more than an hour(or even longer) to serve you food if you ever decide to sit in. Besides, the food is pretty expensive. Posted on June 19, 2008

★★☆☆☆ I dont recommend this place for a family dine-in especially.food does not taste all that,they charge for alot of unreasonable things like 2 ppl's gratuity, i'ld still not mind paying it,only if the service wasn't this dissappointing.i definitely suggest the "other" place across the street. Salaam Posted on December 2, 2007

★☆☆☆☆ we were a family of 8 they were 3 adult and 5 kids which barely eat,,just from the theme park when we get there we noticed that they had all all u can eat buffet for $7.99,when we approach the resturant we were rudely told that buffet is over even though they were still 20 minutes for the buffet to b over,,,we went cause we were from Canada and were looking for Halal food, the waiter remove foods from the buffet counter limiting our variety.at the end the kids were charged same price as the 3 adults ,,,soda were charged full price for refils...will never recomend this establishment to anyone. Posted on August 22, 2007

★★★☆☆ Food was so-so, but service was not that great and prices were resasonable enough, not cheap but not quite as high as I-drive prices. We went once and left indifferent. Posted on August 19, 2007

★★★★★ biryani was ok but chicken jalfarezee was terrible in tatse. Posted on October 14, 2006

★★★☆☆ the quality has detorriated and the prices have shot up..they insist on 15% gratuity even for one person and charge extra for water, they use "generic" bottled water, a small 12 oz bottle and charge upwards of $1.25 for it, and the waiter was "english" had'nt the slightest idea of the food on the menu, this was nice quaint place when it was a take out not a full service resturant, also the prices were nearly half of what is it now. Posted on September 16, 2006

★☆☆☆☆ visited this establishment last yeer. terrible service. food was ok but will not visit again. people at next table had take-out from another place...go figure! Posted on August 4, 2006

★☆☆☆☆ Very bad and old food. Will never go there. Posted on July 4, 2006

NR We ordered take out on the way back from disney world. It was good. No complaints. I'd recommend it. Posted on March 10, 2006

★★★★☆ food was OK- I would say 7/10 the portions that are served are quite small though.The decor however is really gorgeous.Excellent service/very clean and feels like you are eating at a 5-star restaurant.There is a beautiful fish tank that the kids just loved.It kept them busy for a while.There are draped curtains too and clean bathrooms too/well if your in for a night of five star decor in halaal restaurant and well 7/10 food I would say this is a must then Posted on December 31, 2005

★★★★☆ Nice food. Good service. Food was tasteful, naans were fresh and bihari kabab was good. I would not recommend desserts at the place. Posted on November 27, 2005

★★★☆☆ this resturant was o.k. it was not to good, but not to bad Posted on November 12, 2005

★★☆☆☆ Food was of poor quality. Service was very slow. Posted on August 16, 2005

★★★☆☆ Food was okay, not the greatest by any means. Ambience could be worked on. The service was actually not bad. Prices are reasonable. They do add on gratuity so dont double tip. Posted on August 2, 2005

★★★★☆ Good food, and low prices. Service is slow though. Posted on June 4, 2005

★★★★☆ Good Resturant with good pricing. Service was kind of slow, but Biryani and other items were very goood Posted on May 31, 2005

★☆☆☆☆ I have been eating at this place for last 4 years and it has one of the best bihari kababs and biryani but lately since they moved to bigger place the quality of food has gone down.Even the waiter their was complaining that the quality of food has gone in past month . Posted on December 9, 2004

★★★★★ Delicious Halal food at very good prices. Ahmed has been the spot for halal food in Orlando for years. Posted on December 2, 2004

★★★★☆ Back in Orlando for meetings and visited Ahmed for Iftaar. Customer service has improved a lot. Food preparation is good. Goat biryani was just ok. I also ordered carry out for Suhur. I ended up giving tip twice, they add 15% gratuity and then leave the tip section blank. Posted on November 8, 2004

★★★★★ just moved into orlando, food was very good .. the owner is a very nice pakistani , and the service was exceptional!.. Posted on November 3, 2004

★★★★★ Simply the best paki food in Orlando! love it! Posted on October 24, 2004

★★★★★ This place is nice rarity Great food and nice atmoshere and good value. They moved into a nicer place now and their prices still reasonable. All food tried was excellent and decent portions. Very good South asian dishes. We went there for lunch and dinner for half of our whole Orlando trip Posted on August 13, 2004

★★★★★ Very neat and clean halal restaurant with prompt service. Very tasty desi style food at reasonable price. A must visit restaurant when you are in Orlando. Posted on July 27, 2004

★★★★☆ Vey good food, reasonably priced and good service. Was slightly vary after reading some reviews before my trip but totally unfounded. Highly recomend it to anyone looking for authentic halal food..more authentic than some of the places i regularly visit in Rusholme, Manchester... Posted on June 18, 2004

★★★★★ Great experience. Good food. Prices very reasonable. The service was exceptional. The dining area was clean and well decorated. Chicken biryani was very tasty and is highly recommended. Also don't forget to try papadam ( we call it "papar" in pakistan) as appetizer. Owners are muslims. Food was fresh and did not have to wait long. We ordered food for three; appetizers were served in 10 minuted and entrees within 20 minutes. Will definitely go there again. Posted on June 7, 2004

★★★★☆ Excellent halal food. Low prices. Much better atmosphere than Golden Dynasty (which is just round the corner). The owners also own the sari shop next door. Only strange thing is that a lot of the meat is on the bone (even in the biryani!), which I'm not that good at eating. One of the few "Indian" restaurants I've been to that does beef dishes. Posted on June 5, 2004

★★★☆☆ Very bad customer service. The cashier girl at entrance is the crude and unfriendly lady. Waiters are frustrated ready to yell at customers. Must be a family run business with no customer service etiquette. Goat biryani was very good everything else is average. The parathas are from frozen packets - stay away. Yes even after putting up with bad customer service, I do want to thank owners for catering halal food, may Allah reward them, Ameen. Posted on June 5, 2004

★★★★★ Yuo have to visit this for excellent quality of food, unavailable in any indian restaurant. The taste is just like in "Indian" resturants in London. The chef is a Bangladeshi from Sylhet. All food is certified Halal. Definitely the best place to eat in Orlando. Posted on May 28, 2004

★★★★★ al-hamdullilah there's a fully halal restaurant and the food there is extremely tasty and beautiful dinning area as well friendly service. I would only recommand this restaurant. Posted on May 21, 2004

★★★★★ Ahlhamdolillah, another halal restaurnt run by Bangladeshi sunni muslim borther. Here food is good but the service is bad/slow.... You've to wait a few hours to get the food. Waiters & waitress are very rude. But you'll go there again and again for the taste food they serve. Posted on May 19, 2004

★★★★★ Al-hamdullillah, the best and taste Indian halal restaurant in Central Florida. Clean-unassuming home style food....not heavily spiced. Service is excellent and the stuff are very friendly. Prices are very low. You are going to like this place. Only 2 miles east from **sea world** Posted on May 19, 2004

★★★★★ Nice restaurnat. Excellent food. Courteous service. Reasonable prices. Posted on May 19, 2004

★★★☆☆ Great food - bad service. Chef's mix of spices and cooking are near perfect (yummmm) AND offers a large menu selection. Dining area is nice specially for family outings but the service is near pathetic. Would have rated it above average but the service just sucks!! Posted on May 10, 2004

★★☆☆☆ very bad service and presentation. in the end they will ask u 15% tip for no service provided Posted on April 18, 2004

★★★★★ This is the best place in Orlando!!! When you go there ask for Jaahid... Tell him Sameer sent you! You will get special service! Posted on April 14, 2004

★★★★☆ This restaurant serves very tasty halal food at reasonable prices. Two thumbs up! Posted on February 29, 2004

★★★★★ I had a chance to eat Goat biriani, It was really good. Owner told me that soon they will be moving to a bigger place next to Bombay Bazar. Posted on February 12, 2004

★★★☆☆ Had to carry-out, food was ok, service was pretty pathetic. Posted on February 8, 2004

★★★★★ 100% Halal food and very low prices. Posted on December 28, 2003

★★★★☆ Excellent Haleem, Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken. But Biryani was dissapointing. Meat is Zabihah/Halal. Posted on December 27, 2003

★★★☆☆ Very tasty food but NOT for the weak stomached. The restaurant can be a lot cleaner as well. Prices are fair, and food is pretty good. Posted on November 20, 2003

★★★★☆ Very good and cheap Restaurant...I recommend trying it when in Orlando...Close to the Masjid also ;-) Posted on October 30, 2003
