Our Valuable Reviews

OMG!!! Soooooooooo Delicious!
And yup, attached to a gas station! Odd location but yummy food, great attentive staff. We sat outside. Went for lunch. Ordered an appetizer & 2 entrees with the Garlic Rosemary Naan.. I find this to be VERY Authentic as I have traveled to several areas of India. They even offer different regional dishes. Can't wait to go again & try something different. So Yummy!!!

The food was delicious and great quality
This place is amazing! The food was delicious and great quality, service was excellent, and restaurant was comfortable. We came for the lunch buffet and everything was delicious. My favorites were the vegetable Korma and Chicken Tikki Masala. They also had two desserts on the buffet and both were really food. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes.

Lakelands best Indian food
Lakelands best Indian food. Great portions and it tastes incredible I always get the butter chicken, the chicken tikka masala, the samosas and the chicken biryani. All 10/10

DELICIOUS!
I came here with an Indian friend who never eats out and he gave the place his blessing. This place is located right next to a gas station so don’t let that deter you from trying this place out. Some of the best Indian food I’ve had were located at gas stations! We even sat outside and it was fine. What can I say? The food was delicious, the meats were tender and juicy. The sauces were very tasty and had perfect spiciness levels. I will definitely be back!

My absolute favorite Indian restaurant!!!
My absolute favorite Indian restaurant!!! You get so much for your money, and the flavors are incredible. The staff is very kind as well. Definitely try the lunch buffet on the weekend!
