    I would say foods are good with plenty of quantity. The thing l don’t like is that if you order chicken Saag or chicken curry, all the solids are chicken, or more precisely chicken breast, no any other vegetables at all. I would prefer to have some kinds of vegs. So if you are not a total meat eater, order veg type.

    Returned after a few months away and was devastated to find that Taste of India purchased this beloved gem and implemented so many changes for the worse. The quality and flavor of the food is a sad mockery of what it used to be only a few months ago, so many amazing favorites just removed off the menu. A vindaloo that used to be dense and delicious is now watery and depressing. Saag that used to be full of spinach is replaced by a generic puree. My partner, who lost her favorite shrimp malai, described her food as "eating a premade meal" which I couldn't un-perceive after hearing it. All this for food that was 20-30% more expensive than it used to be in the past. Suffice to say a much anticipated return visit turned into bitter disappointment. As it stands, I could not recommend this new Exotic India as I would've eagerly done for the old one.

    I’ve been eating at Exotic India for over a decade, and through location changes and ownership transitions, it always maintained an incredible standard. The rich buttery sauces, perfectly seasoned tandoori chicken, and overall consistency kept us coming back almost weekly. Unfortunately, our most recent visit was a complete disappointment. Nearly 40% of our longtime favorites have disappeared from the menu, and the dishes that remain are shadows of what they once were. The flavors, quality, and attention to detail that made this place special are simply gone. The other recent reviews are accurate. This feels like an entirely different restaurant built on the name of a great one. Cheaper ingredients, less care, and a dramatically worse experience. It’s a real shame—and an entirely avoidable one. We hope ownership finds a way to bring back the recipes and standards that made Exotic India a local favorite. Until then, we won’t be returning.

    My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at Exotic India for lunch today. We enjoyed chai tea, split an order of shrimp biryanis, & naan. Absolutely delish! Love that with each chai tea ordered, you receive one free refill. The service was attentive but not overly so. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere with gorgeous pictures, artwork, and Indian music. The aroma walking in was just as amazing as the food! Highly recommend - and can’t wait til’ we have a chance to go back!

    Exotic India used to be our go-to restaurant. We went several times a month, but recently they got bought out and the food has gone downhill. They no longer serve their amazing exotic curry. The naan is smaller and not as soft. The chai is overly sweet and not as strong. The meat is chewy, not tender. I'm so disheartened because this used to be my comfort meal and I was always so delighted by the food before. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be returned again since the menu and quality has changed.
