“ Been coming here for years and stop by everytime I’m in the city. Wait times are not long and is in an accessible location. The best indian food I’ve ever tried and can’t even replicate it at home. The Paneer Makhani is so full of flavor, creamy, and silky. It’s perfectly balanced and not too overpowering. Perfect bit of savory and spiciness with amazing aromatics. Its a must. The rice is very fluffy with amazing flavor. Never knew plain rice could be so tasty. The garlic naan is amazing quality and a great edition for its price. Comes free during lunch. Best indian food in the country. ”
“ So delicious!! The place looks sketchy. But the food is amazing. The paneer chili was a bit too oily but the spice level was perfect. Can’t wait to try another dish here. Will update with more food pics soon. Spinach biryani was soo tasty. Wow ”
“ First time here. The food was delicious. Chicken Tikka Masals was great, lamb saag was good, but lamb a little chewy, lamb Korma was very good. Ordered garlic Nan, and they gave us free vegetable pakora on the side. Hubby was disappointed they didn't have hot onion chutney, but in its place had Frank's red hot in the triple condiment tray. However, the mint chutney and tamarind sauce were excellent. Mango Lassi was yummy, too. Our friend had goat curry, excellent choice with tender meat. Will return to get next time. Great food with great prices! ”
“ While visiting Cincinnati, I was specifically looking for great Indian food—and I’m so glad I found this spot. From the moment I stepped in, the aromas and atmosphere let me know I was in for something special. I ordered the butter chicken with garlic naan, and it was phenomenal. The sauce was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced—comforting without being too heavy. The chicken was tender and cooked to perfection, and the naan was warm, soft, and just the right amount of crispy on the edges. Even without ordering a drink or appetizer, the meal alone left a lasting impression. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve—every bite tasted thoughtful and authentic. This isn’t just a great Indian restaurant in Cincinnati—it’s one of the best I’ve had anywhere. Highly recommend to anyone craving a satisfying, delicious meal. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town. ”
“ We tried an Indian restaurant after a long time. And this was a very good one with delicious food. We had a chicken tikka masala and it comes with a free Naan. Yeah it was a BIG naan as you can see in the pictures! Also we had a chicken biriyani as well (came with Raita) For drinks we got a mango lassi and a mango milkshake. The milk shake was a little too sweet. This is a self service kinda restaurant. If you are looking for a less expensive but delicious food with a large portion sizes, this is highly recommended. ”
