REVIEWS OF Persis Biryani Indian Grill IN South Carolina

Jman Pfluger

I was gonna take pictures but it disappeared... in my mouth... because I ate it... for those pepperheads out there they have some great spicy food, and I cranked it all the way up and my nose was runnin' the whole time, though they do offer milder options and the flavor was outstanding! I am confused why it's also labeled as a Mexican restaurant so do not be confused by the sign, this is a very authentic Indian restaurant.

Ordered pickup and had issues with the employee and myself hearing each other. The employee went out of there way to call me back to try again. Also allowed me to try different lassi while I waited for my food. As well as called after I left to ensure I got everything I ordered. Top notch service.

Dhiren Bhatt

Three Star for biryani... Lost starts for North Indian curries. Don't go for North Indian...! Service was good, they accommodated to take order on phone and keep things ready for us ...!

Sourav Kumar

Amazing food.must try chicken 65 biryani. Nan and as almond chicken thumbs up.

Star Unlimited

Amazing food! Great flavor.

Raj

In one line I can sum up my experience. Worst food, rude customer service, more pricey menu. C rating restaurant, my friend also mentioned he felt like vomiting after eating food at Persis Indian grill. I will never visit this restaurant again.

Bobby Weatherford

Love this restaurant. Always a graciously maintained buffet for lunch with tasty Indian food. My favorite when the urge for Indian cuisine hits me.

kishore konduri

Thank you @Anthony for the service...you are awesome as well as the food...

Brian Kelly

My family and I have been eating here since they opened. Their food and service are excellent. They not only have a large number of entrees but the customer can get these according to their spice tolerance. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Kelsey Pickett

I loved the Chicken 65, it was well season and the taste was marvelous. I would recommend this restaurant to my friends and co-workers.

Amanda Rae Cobb

Great lunch buffet.

Pravin

Staff here is seriously pretty much humble and good. They always happy to help you . No doubt about food taste and quality :)

christian skarli

Love this place! Food is always fantastic. Service is always good, but this time we had Tony and he was incredible!

Dave S

Every experience has been accompanied with an outstanding foodl and always great service! It's all good!

Bhavesh Panchal

I ordered online almost 30 minute before I get there and they says they don't take any orders on lunch time. I didn't get my food and I have called 3rd party for my refund. Don't order from online guys!!

The Extroverted introvert

I was so confused on what I was about to eat. I ended up putting goat brains on my plate, yuck!! They do label the buffet, but it is only the Indian name. They should put the English explanation. If you are adventurous and don't care what you eat, this is the place for you. After researching what the food was, what I ate was good. Their sign says India and Mexican dishes, but I didn't see anything Mexican.

Lawrence Ireton

I don't know much about Indain food, but I found the food very good an flavorful. Will come back again

E T

Havent tasted the food, but I am starting to want to indulge. Love the culture here. Love being around something different. Around different people.

Barbara Givens

Food was good. Recommend if you like India food.

Vino Hako

The best Indian restaurant I have been, well keep and clean restrooms and excellent food. Buffet had good choices

Sharne Niblock

Great food. I’m not Indian but I do love to eat here. My favorite is lamb Rohan josh. I would advise to be careful because bones fall off the meat in to the dish. Also mango lassi is great to cool the toungue because the dishes are spicy

Casey Lee

On the outside the signage says "Persis Biryani Indian Mexican Grill". I thought it was some place that served neither good Indian nor Mexican. However, they only serve Indian food and it is delicious. I see mostly Indians that eat there so I'm guessing it is quite authentic. They have a nice buffet. My favorite is getting their individual entrees. Any of their goat or lamb dishes are delicious. Our favorite Indian restaurant in town!

Aravind Thyagarajan

Decent quality food

Marina Hada

We were a little skeptical at first but it turned out to be a good experience. Ambiance is good, food is great. Staff is nice. I recommend this place to Indian food lovers

Ganeson Kandasamy

Great food.. good varieties.. good mixture of North and South Indian dishes.

J Mae

Love this place!! Awesome buffet, short commute from downtown, easy parking, very friendly staff. Great new addition to Columbia!

VINAY KUMAR

I found a roach in my water and that was completely normal for the staff

Neha Agarwal

Awsoem Indian delicacies bets in town

Shri Nivas

Our family was in Columbia,SC for spring break and was looking for some great Indian food. We pulled out our phones to see what social media recommended and Persis Indian Grill was listed #1 so we made a call. Our friend mentioned that Persis Indian grill was their personal favorite. Upon arrival, they were packed but we were seated immediately. The service was great, they had a large menu selection and many specials. You can also customize your order based on your spice level. I recommend asking for baby mild, if you are not great with spice. We ordered Indian Beer(very good), Mango Lassi(My personal favorite), Pomfret fish Fry, Persis Tikka masala and a few other items in the menu. I would strongly recommend this restaurant for its food, drinks and service.

prapti patel

Staff was so rude.. and i saw the old couple they came for dinner and might be they don't know much English and they try to explain something to the staff and the staff was laughing at them which is ridiculous.. i mean who does that.!! They have some really bad staff they don't know how to treat customer.. that was so disrespectful..the way that staff was laughing at them that couple was feeling so bad. Might be they are not gonna come back if you guys keep doing it..

Jazz

A+ for food. Absolutely delicious, heated to perfection. Best Indian food I know of here. C- for service. The two ladies who helped me get seated and take my order were very sweet. However as I waited at the bar, the bartender never even bothered to look or say hello to me even though I was the only one seated. Another girl refused to look my way or smile. Mediocre service at best. Best bet is to order take-out.

Chaitanya Krishna

Rating :: Negative rating/5 . As i couldnt post without clicking a star above , i jus selected one star. Worst food. Brought 2-3 times and it was not even a cooked food and completely frozen Again yesterday i brought cut mirchi, paneer paratha, paneer tikka persis special and naan’s STOMACHs UPSET FOR WHOLE FAMILY Cut mirchi - completely dipped in oil, no salt in the batter , not fresh even .. i could see oil floating out when i crushed mirchi .. Simply thrown into trash Paneer paratha - last time ordered the same with spicy where they simply splitted lot of hot chilli powder. And for current order , it simply looks as frozen paratha jus heated and very dried looks very very thicker. Naan- nothing but completely frozen stuff heated. Paneer tikka persis special - i could see mixture of some boiled paneer mixed in some pasta sauce thats it .. added more color which tastes worst Called today to complaint 1. Listened my above complaint and told will call back 2. Called back and i conveyed the same .. He apologized saying “Yes sir, yesterday night food was not good in our restaurant” . I was shocked and asked then why did u serve for me/other customers . No answer from him, told will cal back again. 3. Got a call from manager , he was trying to convince that we will compensate next time and ensure will provide good food . I was asking current situation and will never order again, going to write review .. He told OK

Sara C Jordan

Absolutely delicious food! We stopped here in the middle of a trip and I am so happy we did. Staff is very friendly and nice and the atmosphere is very relaxed. But the food is the real star. Wish I live closer so I could try more dishes!

Tony Kinard

I had an excellent experience. The food was very good, and the people were friendly.

Midlands REIA

Delicious food, excellent service. Highly recommend this restaurant.

arischa conner

Food was very good. It's also spicy. They have 3 levels of spice so be prepared before you go. I didn't realize it would be so spicy and my mouth was on fire. But the food was very tasty

Pytell Floyd

Just go. Its Indian buffet.

adithya g

Tasty and quality!

Chintan Patel

Great place to bring the family. Good variety, well prepared.

Edmund Lavesh

Great variety. Food tasted good. Was a bit put off by sign saying it was "Mexican too"... But the Indian food turned out to be very nice for a buffet.

Sweety Patel

Food is great! Need to work on their service. Y'all need some extra help though!

Danielle C

Wow, where do I start? The phone was ringing loudly nonstop, no one ever answered it. It wasn't a normal ring either, it said the words "call from (phone number)" over and over. The bathroom was disgusting and toilets overflowing. The service was terrible! Waited an hour and a half, told the staff that we didn't have food, we learned later that the waitress NEVER PUT IN THE ORDER, not that they mentioned that to us. Apparently there was only one person working the kitchen that night, but again, no one told us anything. Mind you, there were only a handful of people in the restaurant at this time. How do you forget about 1 table out of 4?! So we asked for the food to go. Another half hour goes by. We get what we assume is our food - it's all wrapped up in plastic wrap so we couldn't see it. No apologies made, no attempt to give a discount or anything. So, I recommend the food, but I really really don't advise you to eat in at this time.

Pam Q

One of our favorite Indian restaurants in Columbia. Their buffet is a bargain and all of their items are absolutely delicious! I would like to commend their staff as well. We had a BiteSquad order that was missing some items and Persis told us we could pick up the replacement items the next day. Great customer service!

marked martin

The food is B.O.M.B!! if you have a craving for exotic food this is it. It is equal in taste with Bombay grill in Charlotte.

Dewayne Bowie

Great food

shanthan reddy

Great service!! Food is awesome.

Ankit Patel

Service is dropping all recent visit was awful, food was good enough to get them another chance but bad food service may ruin your dinner or lunch.

Darryl Roberts

This place was amazing. The food was very authentic and rich in flavor. The staff was extremely attentive and wholesome. I truly recommend you to go see for yourself. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Btw, you can't go wrong with the lamb chops or the butter chicken.

Manaal Bajwa

I LOVED IT LIKE CRAZY!!!!! The service.... AWESOME. The food came no longer than 5 minutes! The food was SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!!!!

Adam Jones

So good the butter chicken was life changing.

Kranthi Kumar Basaraju

Food is good, can expect better service and the buffet is not worth the money

Robin Dixon

Our first time eating Indian food and it was incredible. Absolutely delicious and the staff were so friendly and helpful.

Moshood Olowu

I placed an order online and it took almost 90 minutes to be ready and it got screwed up as well

Cat Lady

By far, the best Indian food in Columbia. I wish they could circulate the air better. Always smell like it when I leave.

Sreekanth Emani

Haleem is great i like most of the items at this place especially lamb chops and biryani . Great ambiance and depending in my mood i can customize the spice level and also appropriate drinks to go with them they do have a good selection of imported beers and to top it all off i get mango lassi at the end I enjoy going here would recommend for an authentic indian taste good to have a restaurant like this in columbia .

Aron Graterol

The food is okay and the service is horrible! The restaurant was half full and it took a while to be seated our waiter forgot to place my moms order after waiting for 20 mins for our food! she came by our table to ask again what we ordered and did not apologize for her mistake by the time my mom got her for I was done with mine. This restaurant needs to improve on the quality of service! I will take my money elsewhere.

Maria Labrador Harper

I’ve been wanting something completely different for a while and finally tried this place. We odered off the menu and it was absolutely delicious. The waiter was very helpful in my selection... I was clueless. Speaking of clues... there is water on the table for a reason. If you are not accustomed to spicey foods do yourself a favor and do not order the highest spice level. My “hot wing” loving husband could not finish his meal. The building has great bones but needs some sprucing up. It’s worth a visit. My meal was $12 and my husband and son got a delicacy at $14. It was a little odd that the waitress stood just staring but the water carafes kept coming.

Rafael Gonzalez

This place is not bad at all. It has it's good days and it's bad. One day the buffet is great, the next visit the food is just okay. Great atmosphere, the employees are welcoming and the place is spacious.

Tim Jacobson

Enjoyed meal very much. Great flavor.

will

My favorite Indian place in town. Would definitely recommend going at lunch for the buffet (I think they do Wednesday dinner buffet now too). They have a good sized spread and I always leave full but wishing I could have more!

Ant Fizzy

Great Indian food. It was about 7 of us and staff was nice and attentive. My second time in two weeks there. Korma is my fav so far.

Shanay Groves

On Easter Sunday I went to the lunch buffet. Food was great, service was horrible. The place was not clean.

Kedar Deshmukh

Excellent Restaurant. We were travelling to Atlanta from Florence and we stopped here for lunch. The food was awesome with lot of options in buffet. The food quality was really superb. Must visit place.

Toolika Singh

If I had to describe in one sentence , its foodies’s paradise indeed. We have been there twice. The choices of food in the lunch buffet is enormous, and not a single item was worthless.Pani puri was a bit disappointing, rest everything was gastronomical delight.

Drayton Whitmore

A great place to eat the dosa is wonderful and the staff is outstanding. I will visit then again for sure

Daniel Roberts

Great food!

mamaj2005

This restaurant is AMAZING. Every dish I tried was wonderfully put together with perfect flavors and just the right amount of spice. My whole family enjoyed eating there, even the small, more finicky members. The buffet had plenty of options, including dessert and traditional drinks. Our family's favorite dish was the butter chicken. This was most likely the best Indian buffet I have ever been to. Oh & the staff were friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Phil Allison

My wife and I love this place for great Indian food. They do a lunch buffet during the week and on weekends, and have a great menu selection. If you do not know much about Indian food, I would recommend a little research before going. Their food is always fresh and very comforting. Sometimes service can be a little slow, but it's fresh.

Nicholas Klosterman

Loved the flavors and the ambience. Service was generally good but the specialty drinks took a minute. The buffet was great; lots of selection. The Nann was consistently out. ( this is always a problem at Indian buffets) Overall loved it and will come back. If it's consistently good will easily be a 5 star.

Aparna Achanta

Authentic and tasty Indian food . Attentive service and wide buffet spread with good vegetarian options. Best Indian restaurant in South Carolina!

Rich Williams

I absolutely love this place. Their standrds like Chicken Marsala are great but the varied dishes on the buffet bring me back every time. Highly recommended.

Brad F

Food and service were both mediocre. I'm a big fan of Indian food and have eaten a quite a variety of Indian restaurants around the U.S. We had the lamb saag with sauce which appeared to have an artificially bright green color and was uniform throughout. It was just mediocre. Butter chicken was on the same par. Staff was nice and friendly but rather slow.

Sierra Brown

Hands down the best Indian food in all of Columbia. I got two to go boxes from the buffet. Couldn't even wait till I got home to taste it because it smells so good. I 100% recommend this restaurant to everyone! Not only is the food amazing but the staff is very polite and helpful.

Alexia Nick Moreno

Food is delicious! Frankie was great. Very attentive and courteous! This was our second time and we will come back!

Travis Behnfeldt

I went there on a Wednesday and found out it was buffet night. The buffet wasn't in English so I didn't know what I was eating, but who the hell cares! The food was amazing! I came hungry and left happy!

Sandeep Burman

Best restaurant in the town for authentic Indian food.

Neetu Vishwanath

We have recently tried this Indian grill with my family while visiting our friends in Columbia. I must say that the food is very delicious. I felt it easy it so easy that they have certain spice levels for kids too as mine enjoyed most of the varieties instead of sticking to desserts only. Starters were too good and mouthwatering especially Lamb chops with exact spice levels and taste. Also the Dum biryani, as the name says it is the original Hyderabadi Dum Biryani. Visiting from California never made us miss the authentic indian food, glad we found them. Very friendly staff, excellent customer service and loved the environment. Must try, worth it!!

Gaurav Arora

Great Indian food... Only drawback is new staff is not that friendly...

Prakash Mehta

Good Indian buffet lunch. Great taste. Lots of variety.

UzmaA

Great food and fast service, even my picky kids loved their food and fast service and friendly atmosphere.

Matt Golden

So different, so delicious!

James Ackerman

Great food, but terrible service. We waited 30+ minutes for our food, our waiter checked in once before the food got there, and he didn't talk to us again until we were walking out the door. I had to ask for a box from another waiter, and for my check from someone else as well, 30 minutes after we were done eating. I do recommend the food though! Get it as take out, and your night will be joyful!

Douglas Spicer

Outstanding. The entire place has Indian folks happily eating (good sign), the food is very well done with abundant flavor, and the variety of the buffet was just right. The prices are reasonable too. I had the mango lassi (yogurt smoothie) and it was perfect. I found the customer service to be just fine. In my opinion, it is the best Indian cuisine in Columbia.

Rodreguiz Chatfield

My 1st time trying Indian food and this happened to be one of the best experiences. I will come back here at least once a week, the food the chicken was good and my bone was clean(lol) Anthony my server he is Awesome!!!go see Anthony

Sundip Patel

Consistently good food and service

Hana

Food was very good. However, the wait staff was not very attentive. The second person who took care of us were more accommodating. I will try again and see how they are.

Stephanie Castillo

My mother and I tried this restaurant and we were NOT disappointed. The food, atmosphere, and service were excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Indian cuisine or anyone looking to branch out and try something new.

Malik Tahiyat

The buffet takes too long to refill and does not taste as good as it used to before. Not recommended anymore.

rushikesh patel

Food is absolutely amazing, no doubts about it. Service can be improved slightly. Always give tip with cash. Servers may not receive tips if tip with credit card.

Jolie Merchant

A friend of mine told me about Persis Biryani so my husband and I decided to try it. We are so glad we did because the food is delicious! They have a wide variety of savory and sweet dishes that are all seasoned to perfection. They also have unique beverages on the buffet. I will go there again soon and I'm taking my friends with me!

Arvind Iyer

The most amazing and delicious Indian lunch buffet in South Carolina period. I have absolutely enjoyed the food today and had an amazing experience.

Abraham Thomas

AVOID THIS PLACE !!! On our way through South Carolina. we wanted to have some Indian food for lunch. So we debated between Delhi Palace and Persis. Since it is close to the highway we decided to stop here. We got here at 1:43 and buffet closes at 2:30. Buffet was almost empty. The staff was not in a hurry to refresh it. They were even trying to avoid it. After request of many customers they brought 2-3 items after a long time. Staff have no clue what they are doing. There is no customer service here. No service at all. This place is an embarrassment to Indian community and what the elegance Of Indian food. The cleanliness of this place must improve dramatically. In six months this place will deteriorate. We are foodies. We have visited many Indian restaurants all over the US and internationally.in the last 2 weeks we were traveling through the US and had some amazing Indian food. So we know how the Indian food tastes like. But here this food was mediocre. Spicy and salty. You can taste the raw taste of the chicken. After eating this food our stomachs were hurting. If you cannot serve food with care and love please leave the food business. We will never come to this any way. This review is for the potential future victims. Hopefully you will not go to this place.

MrJinxTheKat

Great food !! I love this place .. Spicy goat is very good..

V. theDefiant

The food was great. Extremely tasty not too spicy. On their spicy meter of 1-6 6 being the hottest I ordered a 6 and it wasn't too spicy. The atmosphere is nice and the Indian music they play is modern and appropriate. They offer a 10% discount coupon on yelp which is helpful. The wait staff is really nice and helpful. I wish I was their for the Tuesday night buffet but I was their on a Wednesday. My husband and I will definitely be visiting again.

lync452

This place is absolutely phenomenal. We have been here time and time again and have never been disappointed. And we travel from the north east side to get here. Any and everything is amazing. Best Indian food in Columbia.

maria espadas

We just tried the food at this restaurant. The place is really nice, the people are incredibly friendly and kind. This was our first time trying Indian food and it was different for us. The food is good but a bit spicy even though they say it's not, fun to try. I loved the desserts. The only thing I didn't like, it is their sign outside in the building, it says Indian/Mexican, not Mexican at all. Many blessings!

Venu Mandulapalli

Best hyderabadi biryani ever had in a while!

Kim Harris

As an Uber Eats driver, this place was interesting. It smells amazing!!!

Antoinette Weir

The food was very good and different. I have to be careful in what I eat there!!! I'll go back!!!!

Dilip Boal

We look forward to dining in this restaurant, whenever we visit or pass thru Columbia. One of the few Indian restaurants, which serves authentic Indian food ( a bit spicy for non adventurous

Hardik Mehta

Excellent food...customer service is little bit slow. Overall food is tasty n yummyy

DEREE' STOBAUGH

Excellent food not too spicy

shiny s

We had food yesterday for dinner and my mother is down with diarria today. We ordered lamb Biriyani and what they served is some rice on top of lamp curry which is not at all Biriyani. They are fooling people who don't know about indian dishes. Whatever they serve is full of ajinomotto and after having food will feel sleepy and stomach upset throat dryness so much thirsty etc. Stay away from this bad place. I wonder where these good reviews come from. My guess is for sure they will cover any negative reviews with sugar coated good reviews. People who have food once here are never going to come back here.

Funky Fresh

This is the best Indian lunch buffet in town! So delicious. Incredible choices & flavors. I love this place. May not look like much from the outside, but do yourself a favor & give them a try.

Keiona C

I'm very pleased with my service today. Great food, great service and great atmosphere... Will be returning......

Sanket Patole

Good choice of main course in the buffet for vegetarians. Desserts could have been better as no one refilled the empty trays.

M.R. Hudson

Excellent buffet. Don’t mind the Mexican theme from the previous restaurant one bit... where they saved in image they make up for in a very high quality India food experience. Excellent price as well.

Thomas Beaty

I love this buffet so much. It's always incredible.

Wisdom Domain

Nice setting good food

La'Kisha Greene

I've visited this restaurant twice. Once for dinner, where I had to order off the menu. My food came quickly and was delicious. I also went once for lunch when they had the buffet. The food on the buffet was hot and fresh.

Rizwan Khan

The food was bad and service was even worse! We drove all the way from Tennessee to try them out, after Curry and More in Sevierville TN told us about them. But we were so disappointed. We were there for the lunch buffet. The naans in the buffet were so old and stale. I asked the server to get us a fresh naan, he said there are some in the buffet. I went back to the buffet and they still had those old and stale naans. I asked the server (from Pakistan) to bring me a fresh naan and he said he will charge us. I said I’m paying for a buffet, I should at least get one fresh naan. The other server came there and asked him to get us a naan. I asked for the manager and discussed the issues with him. He started giving his own excuses. At the end when we were leaving and paying for our food, the same server (from Pakistan) charged me $3 for a naan. At that point, I just gave up and paid and left the restaurant. It’s not about the money, it’s about customer service and principles. Anyone who pays for a buffet, should at least be able to get a fresh naan if the ones in the buffet are too old. We have been sick with upset stomachs since we got back. I’m not sure what was bad, but something definitely made me and my wife both sick. I won’t be going back and wasting my time and money. I rather go to our local place in Sevierville TN ,who offer the best food and service to their customers.

Ken Reeves

Best customer service at a restaurant that I've had. The food (chicken Tika masala (sp?) was also great.

Sundar Lal Ch

The best biryani you get.

Tom Tanner

Truly enjoyed dining here today. The food was great and service was excellent.

Jonathan M

The buffet is good but having 4 or 5 types of rice is ridiculous especially at this price

Sandhya Prasad

We had lunch at Persis Biriyani at Columbia, SC. They had a special lunch buffet and there were so many items and variety, we loved it. Food was delicious.

David Hanson

Wonderful buffet. Chicken Curry is fantastic. We'll be back.

ed sim

Food was great. Nice staff. Will eat here again. They should incorporate thali platters.

Rajesh Kamineni

Delicious food and very neat place.

Leah Parks

Wasn't offered a menu when i walked into the establishment. hardly any choices on the buffet, everything was overcooked and over seasoned. hardly anything was labeled... just a very bad experience.

Eric Jones

I dont understand how this place recieved such high reviews... I came here at 6pm and sat at the bar. I ordered a margarita. The bartender that was there said he didn't know how to make mix drinks!!! I thought at first he was joking until he told me i could get whiskey straight or order beer. I didn't bother to stay for the food.

Maya Slade

All of their food is delicious. All of the staff is very friendly and great customer service. Santos, Amin & Anthony are all great. We love the manager Kaseem too!

arjun parameswaran

Great food at great prices!

Ilaisaane Parker

Great music, service and food !

Karen DeLeon

Price is not fair for the flavor. Biryani without spices is not a biryani (anise,cardamon, cinnamon flavors are missing), is a 14 dishes to choose from the buffet. But not main dishes more like sides. Outside of the building needs maintain, trash of cigarettes is all over the floor, close to the entrance. Building has potential. Needs more care.

Flossie Brockington

Great service. Food was delicious. Thank you Anthony. Go try them.

Curtis Allen

It was my first time eating Indian food and I tried everything and regret nothing

pooja gehani

A/c wasn't working and they argued when informed. We were amazed at 50+ people eating at 83 degrees inside where we felt suffocated. Please enquire about the age of kid for kid's lunch price as we were informed it's 5 year old and above......first crazy experience in an Indian restaurant, seems like the management has changed since we last visited, as we have loved Persis before that

Amber Brown

I bowl at AMF all the time and when I come out I always smelled something amazing I finally tried Persis Biryani tonight. Its was awesome. Spice level right on point. Servers were great and attentive. Definitely have to come back. Garlic Naan is a must get!!!!

hashimmom

One of the best restaurants I have ever been. The biggest buffet ever. Everything on the buffet was delicious. I will be going back, and back, and back.

Anjan Patel

Excellent, food was amazing and so was the staff

mir ata rabbi

good food and nice environment. Kabsa rice with lamb is the best.

Gary Topping

4 out if 5 for a couple of reasons. Some what slow service and the explanation of the food was not the greatest as we never had Indian food we were a little unsure. That being said the food was GREAT. My wife had the Butter Chicken and I had the Khorma (Lamb). I would definitely order this again! Next time I will try the Goat.

brandy lee

Super delicious authentic Indian food! Best I've had since I've moved from Cali.

Fantastic Family Amrutha Raam

Briyani and lunch buffet are very tasty

Kayla Chapman

Tried indian food for the first time at this place. And I must say it was amazing. The staff was extremely helpful and very polite and professional. I would highly reccomend to anyone. All in all I was very satisfied with my experience here.

Matt Mason

Enjoyed the buffet and ability to try new foods without having to commit to something I wasn’t sure I would like

Brandi Hammond

Food is great. Service is terrible. Lunch buffet is your best bet.

Jennifer - Marie Hill

We absolutely love our persis family... The food is always great and we love the staff also...

M H

Best Indian food in town. Butter chicken and samosa for the dang win.

Fitness Dreamz

If you really wanna try some Indian food with various items this the perfect place to eat. I just love it!! Thousand times better than Village of India.

Bryan Creel

They have excellent Indian food! The service was a bit slow when we came but that might have just been the time of day. I have several Indian co-workers who say it's the best in Columbia.

Saud Altaroti

It’s one of the greatest Indian restaurants I ever tried they provided variety of food specially authentic food with the Indian names

Eliesha Nick

Food was absolutely a-ma-zing. The service was even better thanks to our waiter Frankie. He made great recommendations.

Sylvia Adongo

Went for a birthday dinner with some family. Food was delicious and our waiter was okay, but towards the end it got kinda shady. They preferred cash over card, which is uncommon but not really that weird, but the way they went about it was what made it kinda sketchy. We were a group of seven and we didnt split the bill, so it was kinda weird handing over that much in cash, let alone without a folder thing or some kind of liaison. But whatever, it was still REALLY good food, so I'll probably end up going again

Sai Yaswanth

Me and my friend went on a friday night. The ambience was good and we were welcomed. We ordered Boneless Chicken and Vegetable Biryani, Cut Mirchi Bhajji as appetizer and Kingfisher Light Beer. This was the first time I saw KF lite beer in USA. The food tasted good and was adequate. Definitely would recommend others also to check this place out!

Brooks Wisnewski

This place is a hidden gem! I've grown up right down the road but never went here until a few weeks ago. I got samosas ($4), garlic naan ($3), and mild chicken Tikka masala ($12) and it was mind-blowing. I would recommend the mild, it was a nice amount of heat. It came with a good amount of rice as well. They do not have the buffet at dinner, so just plan accordingly. I wish I had known more entrees, but I imagine anything on their menu is good. Also, if you want to order takeout, do it on the phone and not online. The employees are really nice and it's a great place to eat. Even if you're with people who don't like to expand their culinary outlook (@my brother in-law), you can still find something (naan, oven-baked chicken, rice, anyone?).

Once I saw that the dining room was filled with Indians, I knew we were getting authentic Indian food. I'm fairly new to the cuisine, so I was delighted with my dinner and my companion enjoyed there's too. Our server was polite and happy to assist us in ordering. I'll definitely go back.

It is probably the best pure food I have had at a restaurant. They have an elaborate all you can eat Prix Fix three course menu that will leave your heart wanting more, but you can't stomach more. The service is top notch! Pricey but totally worth affair.

Very good but sometimes inconsistent with the spices. I went 1 time and it was spectacular and the next week I went again and ordered the same dish but it tasted completely different. The naan is super good

Good, saw even native Americans enjoying the dishes.

FAVORITE INDIAN RESTAURANT EVER. I have eaten Indian food all across the east coast, but this is still one of my favorite spots. I have only tried one entree here that I was absolutely fast about. — I have a peanut allergy, and the staff is always in the know about what’s in my food.

STAY CLEAR if you don't want food poisoning. I came here with my family of four and 3 of us came down with bloody diarrhea the next day. We are on treatment now and will hopefully recover soon. The restaurant has a "B" sanitary rating listed on the outside. I thought it would still be fine. Apparently not :/ . Food wasn't too bad, but you should value your health and stay clear.

One of the few halal restaurants in the area. Excellent taste, quality, portion size, and price! I have tried a few things on the menu, and they are all great. Authentic Indian food. Nice ambiance.
