"Great South Indian food - Ordered several times and we like the Chicken Biriyani, Indo Chinese Szechuan fried rice, Chicken 65 among other things. Some things have increased in price dramatically like Garlic Naan - It's almost 2X the price of most top competitors - so we buy North Indian else where now."
"No complaints on the food. Very authentic South Indian/ Chettinad style cuisine. The problem is the cost v/s. quantity of food. Very pricey and not enough food at all. I ordered the porotta combo w/ chicken curry and there was barely enough for 1 person for 1 time let alone leftovers. Lollipops are my favorite, but 16$ for 5 small pieces, not worth it imo. "

"The Lamb Biryani was soooo herby and tasty, 10/10, love. The Chana Masala I selected - Mild - just the right amount of heat level for me, delicious! I had it the second day with salmon, for dinner last night, omnom nom that was good. Also, I saw something about Indian Resturants that if they have the proper yogurt that it should be more sour than say yogurt in tzatziki sauce and it did not disappoint in that aspect, it's really cool to experience cultural food that tastes like the food-travelers describe it to taste like! The Mango Lassi was really nice just like it's described with the yogurt on the more sour side, so cool! How can you go wrong with Garlic Naan, mmmm! Yum! Thanks Sattva! Thumbs up!"

"Hands down the best Indian food in the area. Each dish tastes fresh and unique. The Shahi Paneer was slightly sweet from the cashews and the Dal Makhani was earthy and well-spiced. I also appreciate the variety of breads. I opted for a lighter Tandoori Roti over naan (which is also good)."
"I would love this restaurant even more if they change the portion for Veg Manchurian. It is a small appetizer portion with entree price which I don't think it makes sense at all. Love the dish but I get always disappointed to find out how small the portion is for the price. Also, I hope they will be more consistent with their rice portion per number of entrees that I order as well.

"It was worst indian food I ever had.
Chicken Tandoori was burnt.

"Everything was so delicious as usual. Today we had butter chicken, palak paneer and the vegetable fried noodles. Of course we had plain basmati rice and plain naan. No ginger on the noodles. Rice was so perfectly cooked, hot & fresh. Butter chicken was so tender and cooked to perfection. Palak paneer was spiced perfectly and so much cheese! Finally. That was always my biggest frustration. All of it was good and so fresh. I just wish they would add the chutneys to DD as an option. Called the restaurant and wanted the green mint chutney and the tamarind and they said ok they would add to the order but only gotrhe green one. Too spicy for me but my daughter loved it. Overall, we love this place. "

"The food was fantastic! The lamb curry had plenty of meatballs and very tasty. CTM, was different from what iam used to in a good way. Appreciated the chicken tikka on top instaedof mixed in. The rice and naan were delicious, I only wish there was more of both cause the 2 main dishes each could use a thing of rice. Looking forward to my next meal here and trying the lentil soup. "
"This is oneof my new favs and i've ordered freque the recently. In fact, I had left overs in fridge from last time, so easy comparison. Today my Curry: Mixed Vegetable Korma (G) was smaller. Not a lnch size - sane price as previous order. There was ONE piece of califlower, and maybe 6 pieces of potato. Rest was all sauce. Last time thry gave me 4 Samosas...today was 2. Sauces were smaller, and my yogurt sauce was small (paid same price as previous), and just liquid. No flavor. No option on DD for "I got tiny sizes and paid same as last week on DD", so no help there. Also, paid extra for rice as their dishes don't just come with it.
Today was a real turn-off for me. Paid $38 for 1 califlower and some sauce. Honestly...even Garl Naan (N)ic felt microwaved. "

"I ordered the butter chicken and garlic naan from BASANTI and it was honestly amazing. The butter chicken was cooked perfectly — tender, juicy, and full of flavor. I’ve had butter chicken from so many other places where the chicken comes out dry and overcooked, but this was a total step above. The garlic naan was soft, fluffy, and nicely garlicky too.
What really impressed me was the great value and how well everything was packaged. It arrived hot and fresh, which made a big difference. This is easily some of the best Indian takeout I’ve had in a while. Already looking forward to ordering again!"

Don't know if the kitchen staff decided to be lazy today, but every bite of my butter chicken had bone or tendons in it. $21 for a small portion and you charge extra to add rice and naan.

"Paneer Tikka Masala is the best of the lot. Loved it super creamy and tasty. For both Dal and Chana Bhatura it would be better if they grind the vegetables (onion, tomatoes) into a puree so the curry tastes rich and creamy. It's a bit watery and chunky.

"the buffet here is AWESOME! The food is genuine Indian; the restaurant is spotless - which I'm very thankful for during covid. They supply gloves and hand sanitizer; and no one is allowed in without a mask. Waiters are on point and seem to know what you need before you even ask for it! For the price, you can't lose. Love the bharta and the saag panner - actually I love it all. For $15.95, per person, this is a great find. AYCE!"
"Really enjoy this place! The first time I ordered CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA CHICKEN TANDOORI SAAG ALOO all medium to medium +. If you are unfamiliar with Indian food, it leans spicy. That said, if you enjoy spice it's very flavorful spicy. I would rate the medium+ as spicy personally & I will adjust according to the dish. The GARLIC NAAN was great with the saucy CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA & SAAG ALOO . Can't go wrong with VEGETBALE SAMOSAS - crispy & delicious with the side sauces. I really appreciate that they wrap the food containers in plastic wrap, very thoughtful as sometimes even properly sealed saucy items can spill on the way. I appreciate the attention to detail in that respect. They also give you a side of lovely sauces & 2 small deserts (I do not know what they are called). The sauces were great! I loved the food from last night so much I ordered again tonight to try different items."

"The 5. Vegetable Korma was great & gave me 2 full meals, plus there was still a bunch of rice still left, which I made my own 3rd meal out of!!! I was a bit disappointed with how little naan I got for $6.50. I am looking forward to ordering additional dishes from them in the near future."
"I love this place! We finally found a great india restaurant that is close to our house. The 1. Chicken Tikka Masala was so yummy. The 5. Vegetable Korma had good size chunks of veggies. The 1. Samosa were perfectly crispy and spicy! All of the food had the strong flavors you crave when wanting Indian. They even gave us papadams! Highly recommended. "

Gracias Gracias Gracias!!!
PD: es lo que mi mamá expresó!!!"
"The food was bland, $22 for an order of curry?!? - didn't make sense but I took a chance, and i def regretted it. The Daal Makhani was watery instead of nice and rich and dark, no flavor. The Tofu Masala was sweet rather a rich savory curry, and the Vegetable Samosa were $6 for 2 small pieces! I'm giving two stars because someone did like the Vegetable Biryani, and by like I mean they didn't hate it. Also, they got my order wrong and missed some of my items. "

"Good quality food, but low quantity for the price in my opinion. The Uyghur Polo was pretty fried and unhealthy, and definitely not a meal in itself. The Uyghur Goshnaan was delicious. Korma Chop was alright and quite filling. The honey gave a very nice flavor to the Homemade Yogurt ."

"The food was delish! We had the chicken tender with onions and peppers and the meat was so moist and flavorful! We will definitely be ordering again!"
"I recently ordered from Shemroon and tried their Shish Chicken Kebab and Baghali Polo with Lamb Shank. The flavors were truly impressive—both dishes were well-seasoned and delicious. The chicken was juicy, and the lamb shank had great potential.
However, I did notice a few things that could be improved. The Baghali Polo had very few fava beans, which made it feel more like plain rice than the traditional dish. Also, unfortunately, the lamb shank arrived quite cold, which took away from the overall experience.
If the restaurant can pay a bit more attention to the packaging and temperature of the food upon delivery, I believe they could easily gain many loyal customers—including myself. I genuinely look forward to ordering again and seeing how they continue to improve."
