"I like the food taste and the dishes here. The only problem is food packaging quality, the Sambar needs to be cooled a bit before being poured into the containers. The plastic container melts before it's delivered."
"very bad quality for the chutney, coconut chutney is diluted with a lot of water and has a bland taste. Podi Idli (2 pcs) feel like soft rubber.🫓 Poori (2) with Paneer Butter Masala the curry is very small portion. Benne Spicy Dosa is the only thing in my order that is decent. Overall not worth the price."

"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. "

"It was worst indian food I ever had.
Chicken Tandoori was burnt.
Paneer Shahi was below average.
Garlic Naan usually come 2 as meal it was just one and doesn't justify the price.
Kheer was horrible. It was the same boiled rice in sweetened milk.

"I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala a couple of times before. The flavor is on point but the amount of chicken, bell peppers and onions this time were less than usual.
It was my first time trying their Mango Lassi and it is really good. I would prefer if a wider straw was used tho since it's a mango/yogurt drink that's thicker in consistency."
"Everything was very delicious! The Vegetable Samosa (2Pcs) were out of this world so light and fluffy and deliciously crispy, packed with fresh herby flavor, mmm yum! They were out of Paan Ladoo (2pcs) , but DoorDash said it was purchaseable. Charminar gave me the Ras Malai dessert equating to the Paan Ladoo to make up for the order because DD wasn't responding on their end. I tried Ras Malai for a first time it was very nice, aromatic with the rosewater and nice texture/flavors of the milky cream dessert sauce. Thanks Charminar! Yum! =)"

"one of my favorite places to get indian food! the 2 Entrée Combination is honestly the best and the portion is amazing! chicken tikka is to die for and i love th garlic naan"
"Shrinkflation has definitely hit this place. I ordered the 1-item combo expecting a decent portion like the photos show, which appear to be a 1-compartment container with roughly half rice and half entree. Instead, my food arrived in a 3-compartment container where the rice took up the largest section, leaving just one small corner for the chicken tikka masala and the other small section completely empty.
For nearly $15, the portion of chicken is tiny. They don't seem to give a full single-item serving anymore, so if you actually want a reasonable amount of chicken tikka, you have to pay extra to order the 2-item combo and double up on it. Very disappointing value for the price."

"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. "

"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. "

"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.

"This place has good Indian food for at a great price. It is great value with their generous portion size and with regular offers you can't beat this. The chicken tikka Chicken Tikka Masala and Garlic Naan combo is solid in terms of flavor and spice. I have been ordering for a while now and it tastes great."
"I've been wanting to try this place and what a disappointment. Flavorless. Butter Chicken was slivers of chicken, I think, and not much of it at all. I ordered rice because i didn't see it mentioned as "comes with" I don't need to try it again. Trader Joe's Saag Paneer and Butter Chicken is better and far less expensive."

"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."

"WOW!!! Probably one of the best meals I've ever had! The Khao Soi Noodle seasoning and aromatic finish were beyond compare! The two chicken legs were big and done just right, and dipping them in the soup made them great-tasting!
The noodles were homemade and mixed perfectly with the ingredients in the soup! You do need to like onion, which I do, and there's plenty of them and other fresh vegetables. I got medium spicy which I really liked, but did have a pretty good kick, so be careful."

Thank you, Saffron Grill!"
"I had both the Avgolemono Soup and it tasted more like chicken noodle soup. With carrots, green onions parsley, etc. Not a hint of the creamy egg lemon flavor that is avgolemono.
