"I finally decided to give this restaurant a try after living in the area for years without visiting. I've been to several other restaurants offering similar cuisine, so I was eager to see their take on traditional dishes. The lamb dish I ordered was quite nice; the lamb was tender and well-seasoned. However, the garlic naan was just okay, and I felt the portion was a bit smaller than I had expected. The saffron rice was also a little mild for my taste. My partner's dish had a variety of different flavors, but I found that the curry here wasn't very spicy."

The butter chicken could use some improvement, but everything else that was served hot was fantastic. The cold dishes, which I think were the rascals, were lacking the cheese I was hoping to find. Additionally, the kheer could use a bit of cardamom for added flavor. Overall, I had a pleasant first experience, and our waiter was exceptional.

I visited the all-you-can-eat buffet specifically to try their chow mein noodles and kababs. They looked appealing and delicious, but unfortunately, when I sampled the noodles, they were hard and lacking in flavor. As for the kababs, they were quite dry and had a flavor that was predominantly just egg. I truly hope they can improve the quality of their dishes in the future.

As for the biryani, it was a mixed bag. I used the BOGO offer on UberEats, and while one portion came with five good-sized pieces of meat, the other only had three. The rice was quite oily, but the chicken pieces tasted alright. To ensure there were no unwanted ingredients, I transferred the biryani into a mixing bowl, as mentioned in previous reviews. Additionally, for $16, I expected at least some raita or salnah to accompany the biryani, but that was absent. Overall, I see no reason to return to this restaurant.
