Ive moved to US recently and been hunting for good Indian restaurant. So far the experience been pretty disappointing but five rivers lifted the spirit of eating Indian food here again. We ordered lassi n samosa and while there was less of sugar and chili respectively they were good. Chicken tikka was served like a sizzler but tasted yummy as the ones Ive eaten in Bangalore. Quantity wise some comments been bad but I can say it is not bad. Tikka standard large chicken chunks, shahi paneer and dal makahni was more for two of us and we had to pack stuff home. Each dish was served with rice and if you like rice for sure it is a cheaper option here. Shahi paneer had raisin and cashew nuts and gravy was really yummy. Daal makhani has too great taste. Overall $50 worth spend for our family. Few negatives: they dont switch rice with roti, the staff moves around with utensil to back off shop through the customer shop, some people were complaining of service though we didnt have any problem.

This is semi my first Indian restaurant so here goes. The butter chicken was absolutely delicious!!! The only and probably crucial downside was the tendon I found. I did NOT expect to chew on tendon/cartilage. I appreciate restaurants who use quality meats, or cut up their meats with the best quality and intention in mind. This was not a one time occurrence either, so I figured it needed to be mentioned. There are also four level of spiciness to choose from, I thought that was neat. Very spicy, spicy, medium, and mild. Spicy for me and mild for the bf!! Overall: 1. I will come back! 2. The butter chicken is AMAZING, a must try. 3. If there werent any tendon pieces in the butter chicken, I would have given this another star!! 4. Nice and friendly people.

I walked into the restaurant with my boyfriend thinking we were going to have a delicious feast because were so hungry. They told us to take a seat so we picked a table and sat next to each other like we usually do. The manager came to the table and told us to go to a two person table but there was no one in the restaurant so we didnt think it was necessary. Then he ignored us for 15 minutes even though we were ready to order. He came to the table and said we cant sit there because its a 4 person table. I cant believe the management was so rude! We were going to order a lot of food and needed space for it! There was no one in the restaurant and he wouldnt let us sit at a bigger table? We walked out. Cant stand rude customer service. Never coming back.

Walked out. Told to have a seat in a nearly empty restaurant and then ignored for 10 minutes.. Finally a totally silent waiter drops a menu and glass of water in front of me and walks off. Everyone stood around then for 15 minutes ignoring me and not taking the order. Food was fairly expense and the few plates I saw seemed average Indian fare. I finally gave up after 30 minutes and walked out. Informing the staff why got no response. I think they were not very interested in selling food. Odd for a restaurant. Very, very skipable experience.

We came here late Friday night, this place we filled and there was about 3 groups ahead of us. We waited about 20 minutes from a table, debating if we should get take out or wait for a table. We opted to wait because the parties ahead of us were quickly seated an other table we getting ready to clear out. We got several dishes, our staple is chicken tikka masala, we got salmon tikka masala, tandori chicken and lots of butter naan. That night they ran out of chai tea and we had sad faces until our delicious food came.

Small portion food. Nothing special for 20 dollars and little portion. They hurry you out of their if youre eating by yourself. Will not come back and I would not recommend this to anyone. As you can see, only indians are giving this place good rating. Well, they dont treat you special if youre NOT indian. Go figure. They do not respect whites or any other race other than Indians. This place should be closed.

So. Good. I ordered from GrubHub delivery. I first felt it took a while, so I was feeling impatient. Then I took the first bite, and it was worth it! I can see why it took time, theyre thorough with the cooking and spices. Everything was carefully wrapped when I received the order, bigger portions than I expected and, yes, delicious! So good

The buffet food is held below acceptable and safe food temperatures. This is extremely dangerous in terms of food safety. When they do cook new food, they pour the hot food into the same container with the cold food. The food is flat out cold. There are five people working and no one to collect dishes. Not sure how its getting 4 stars.

We ordered delivery from here for the first time and really enjoyed it. We love Indian cuisine and these guys left us satisfied! Their spicy is prob a medium; but their mild is actually mild, something for everyone. We got the aloo gobi, veg korma, pakoras, and the Punjab-e nan. They are def going to be a regular in our house! Yum!

I am very disappointed. I asked for Lamb Biryani and told them please make it spicy but I got some rice with lamb meat without spicy. I am disappointed because not only for spicy but also taste of the Biryani. It was rice over lamb not a Biryani. By the way, I didnt eat it but paid.

Consistently Great Indian Food! This is my third time eating here, the first two being their lunch buffet and the last being takeaway dinner. Spices are always the right amount, friendly staff, and very clean eating area. Highly recommended!!

My go-to place for consistently great tasting Indian food. My girlfriend and I regularly get their Tikka masala, samosas, beryani rice, paneer masala, and other dishes and have never had a complaint. Their garlic Naan is also pretty great!

Excellent food. We ordered take out. Chicken tikka masala was great. My only problem was with their website design. Once I made selection for an item, there was no option to edit and make changes to the quantity. I was stuck.
