My friend says she eats here almost once a week after she suggested that we give this place a try for a lunch date. Im not the biggest fan of Indian food, but the reviews for New Flavor of India definitely looked promising. This AYCE buffet is located in the Target plaza by the Starbucks/Subway group of stores. And plenty of parking, so you definitely dont have to worry about that. Ambience is pretty nice. They have very dim lighting (although the lights shining over the food are super bright!) making for a very pleasant dining experience. As soon as youre seated, youre able to grab a plate and head to the buffet line. I think the best thing about this place is their garlic naan bread - super light, with crispy edges, but once you get to the middle, it becomes softer and a bit thicker. I could sit there and eat several basketfuls! Theres a good number of items that are served in the buffet area, but my favorite items were definitely the tandoori chicken, chicken curry, and butter chicken. The rice was pretty flavorful as well! The butter chicken was probably my favorite out of all three - super creamy and soft, going amazing with the rice. They also have several dessert items, but I opted to try the rice pudding, which was so good! I love tapioca pudding, and the taste definitely reminded me of tapioca pudding, just with a different consistency. I was full pretty quickly (probably from all that naan bread). tl;dr - Service was really great - workers were constantly coming by to clear our plates and give us more naan if needed. Overall, a solid place to go for Indian food - and you cant beat the $9.99 AYCE lunch buffet deal! Im not sure about their dinner prices, but coming here for lunch is a great bargain!

The food here was good, the best part was the NAAN, now i did only pick up my food to go so I may have to give them another shot but I my experience wasnt the smoothest. When i got home I realized they had not given me the Naan bread so I called them, they person who answered the phone said he remembered me and told me to return for my bread. When i came back with my receipt he told me he knew the bread was in the bag, he never checked the contents of the bag, someone in the back brought it out. To make a long story short I had to go back and forth with 3 of the employees there (1 of which i had never seen the first time i was there) before they agreed to give me any bread. It didnt leave me feeling too good about the bread, considering I paid over 60 dollars for my dinners and the naan was extra and I wasnt asking for anything for the inconvenience. I wasnt too thrilled with my experience that is why i gave them a low rating they got the second star because the food was decent. There were tiny pieces of bones in the butter chicken which i also didnt really like

I have only eaten from their lunch buffet because i like variety and the price. The naan is really great, but you have to remember to ask for garlic naan when you enter, otherwise they will serve you the plain. I think a lot of people do not like garlic and returned it. I think they should ask as you get seated but its just an idea. The butter chicken is my favorite but every once in a while it is a little dry. My fiance loves the red chicken...i dont know the name but it looks like chicken marinated in a red sauce and then grilled. They one they make usually comes out moist. I have gone to places where it dries up. So thumbs up for the chief. I also like the lamb when they have it, just becareful eating the seeds because they are only to flavor the sauce. The seeds have a strong taste. The waiters are polite and make sure you have water with you food during your whole meal. This is still our favorite spot to go even tho we have to drive 30 minutes further. Bottom line. You should try this place out. Im not sure if it is authentic but i enjoy their food.

Edit : I visited again and found that place is going down in standards. Servers are rude now. Definitely some training wont hurt them. When I asked them that Dal tadka doesnt look right, he suddenly became too possesive about dal and started correcting us by saying "this is how dal looks, maybe you guys are eating it for the first time." and yes, this is not how dal looks like and it was definitely not our first time (were Indian, our meal is not over without having dal and rice) , even google will show you nice photos then the daal you served us. If its made wrong then its fine, accept it. we just wanted it to be served right next time. There was no need to be so possesive about dal, it was just dal.

1). Will not recommend this restaurant! Worst service .! They dont have knowledge how to treat a customer. They said initially for buffet will get one drink coke/ any other drink, my friend took a buffet with coke. That asking my friend dont drink coke those who took the buffet they are only have to had that drink other wise they will going to charge extra coke chargeable. It doesnt matter who drunk the coke restaurant have that system that buffet with drink drink.. 2). We order biryani they gave us one small portion of raitha we asked some more they told us like they are going to charge for extra raitha this is how they are giving service to the customers

BEWARE, DO NOT VISIT THIS RESTAURANT. I would not even give 1 rating for this. There were very few items, just one item in dessert. They charged $5 for my 2 year old daughter. When I questioned them that no hotel charges for buffet for a 2 year old, they told me that she ate a piece of fruit from my wifes plate. And it was more disgusting for him to tell me that next time do not come to eat with your children. After a lot of argument finally he removed the $5 charge. I have never seen such rude and inhuman staff. I would suggest better go to some other restaurant than paying and getting insulted by some ruthless morons.

Superb Indian food. But you better know what you are expecting and be vocal about it. On one occasion, we received aloo palak instead of makai palak. The koftas in the malai were still frozen. The server was apologetic and adjusted, however this happened in one night. The naan is not the best as it does not bubble-up and is not fluffy but rather flat. The rest of the food, dal makhani, dal tadka (ok), chilli paneer (the highlight) bhindi masala (ok), paneer kadai and vegetable jalfrezi were enjoyable.

Great taste, freindly staff, excellent ambeince ! Had lunch buffet today with family. I give five stars to this restaurant as the food was amzingly fresh and mouth watering...esp butter chicken, dal makhani, potato cabbage, tandoori chicken, chicken chilly. The samosa, spring rolls and pakoras were great to start with. Reasonably priced and lots of dishes. Would recommened strongly for Lunch.

Not a good option...waste of time and money..... We ordered veg Appetizers, tandoori chicken and lamb biriyani... They served veg appetizers prob made two days back which was heated again and again than served....full of oil...same with tandoori... Its not freash...its not worth spending so much amount on this food which is not freash.... Lamb biriyani is ok
