We tried their buffet, and it had plenty of items to choose from. All the dishes were rich in flavor, and they even served fresh naan based on our preference, which was a nice touch. The appetizers were good overall. The fish pakora and railway cutlet stood out they were flavorful and well prepared. However, the chili parotta was a little hard and difficult to eat. For the main course, both the chicken tikka masala and dhaba curry tasted quite similar, but the richness in flavor was definitely there. The Malabar fish curry was good and nicely balanced. The veg pulao paired with mushroom masala curry was absolutely amazing one of the best combinations on the buffet. Coming to desserts, the gulab jamun was very soft and perfectly made, and the rice pudding was just right not too sweet and well balanced with dry nuts. The ambience is one of the best parts of the place very comfortable and pleasant for dining. At $19.99 for the buffet, the price is pretty decent considering the variety and quality they offer. Overall, a great spot if you’re looking for rich flavored Indian buffet options.
