  (Go to abhiruchi's instead and order the lamb Pasadena you will not be disappointed) Dissatisfied. There was a long black hair in the chicken curry just sitting there, and nobody bothered to fix it. On top of that, I found another black hair in my tandoori chicken. I came on a Sunday for their buffet, thinking that since Abhiruchi seems to be closed for the foreseeable future, I might as well see if this place was comparable. Sadly, it’s not. All the curries were oddly thin and watery, and most tasted bland. The buffet stand was half empty, and only after I said something did they bother to refill some of the items. The mint chutney I really enjoyed. The rice pudding was flat compared to Abhiruchi and was served cold maybe that’s just how they do it at this location. The gulab jamun was also cold but actually tasted quite good. The only redeeming quality was the price, which was around $18.50. I was hoping they’d offer more options something like a korma, goat curry, chicken pasanda, or at least a yogurt based sauce. Ultimately, it was......okay not gross, but also just “eh.” This spot would rank at the bottom of the Indian restaurants I’ve tried, with Abhiruchi and Bhuna at the top. Maybe it was just a bad day, but I expected more options, more flavor, and significantly less hair in my food.

  Used to be a go to date night spot. Partner and I were pleased with everything served. However, last summer, July 2024, when I ordered a dish with goat meat, I was literally spitting out shards of bone. Every bite. I could not enjoy the flavors because I was fighting bone fragments. It's like they took the lunch buffet dish and lazily served it at full dinner plate price. We'll never go back.

  Food is always delicious, but I ordered med spicy. I could have served this at a retirement home with zero talk about spicy. If you are going to charge extra for spicy then please make it so!

  While the food is delicious, I'm a bit frustrated because I came today for the supposed lunch buffet that claimed to be everyday on their website. To my surprise when I arrived there was no buffet and I was told it only on Friday and Saturday, yet their website clearly states it is everyday. I feel like they falsely advertise to get people on the door and then the people end up staying because they only have so long on their lunch break to then have to go find somewhere else to eat. It needs to be fixed or they need to honor their everyday lunch buffet they have advertised on their website.
