A little defense for this place. Just moved here from Pittsburgh--we had 10 Indian places within 5 miles (FYI Taj Majal was the best), and I feel confident saying I know Indian food. This was our first venture into Indian cuisine in Chapel Hill and I took a gamble on it, figuring I'd try the one with the worst rating so I could only go up from there (perhaps odd you may think, but whatever). We had takeout so can't comment on the service. The food was decent. They had a buffet at night ($6 for kids>5 and $12 for adults), with which I am not accustomed. The place was packed--I've never seen that either. I spoke with a woman there who said she has tried every Indian restaurant in the RTP area and this one has them all beat. In summary, not the Taj Mahal in Pittsburgh, but decent chow--we'll go back.
underwhelming. extremely disappointing, worst indian food we've ever eaten. would not recommend ordering off the menu or doing the buffet.
EAT HERE!. I disagree with other reviews citing food as bland. It is truly far from it. The staff & owver are cheerful and courteous. While eating in a basement is not the best, the owner has done a wonderful job remodeling. Try this place...you'll return for more. Also, best Indian takeout in the area.
The mighty fall.
Used to be the spot... it has slippe din 10 years.
Bland food, go here for the nostalgia if you are a UNC grad like me who scraped together $6 every week for the buffet on Saturday. You will be disappointed though.
