Nice Indian buffet in Berkeley downtown. The atmosphere is very calm, it is not usually crowed and the food is good and prices are fare. Service was pleasant. I will come back with my family. I’d would like to see more non-spicy options in the...Read More

This place has suddenly gone downhill. I don't know if it has changed hands or something else has happened. The buffet is terrible, the service is nonexistent, and the empty tables at lunch on Sunday show the result. They will be closing soon from the...Read More

Typically with restaurants that have North and South Indian dishes, only one excellent and the other so-so. This is the case here. The south Indian dishes were excellent. The samosas were also excellent. We went on a Friday night and they were out of papad...Read More

A spacious and peaceful venue coupled with attentive and friendly staff makes the initial experience super appealing. However, the food itself is largely forgettable with minimal flavor, even down to the rice which is quite a feat.

Amazing food, amazing service, and incredible atmosphere. Tastes like home cooked food—not too oily, right spice level, and made with fresh ingredients. Vikas was our server and brought us free gulag jamuns for dessert! I highly recommend you come here for dinner lunch or anything...Read More
