Ive patronized this place a few times for the all-you-can-eat, self-serve lunch buffet offering typical India fare and condiments, which is still a reasonable $9.95. Their team of attendants often bestow your table with naan and water, and remove your finished plates. I havent experienced food poisoning; I trust a place whose staff come out of the kitchen on break to serve themselves from the same buffet we eat - that means its not recycled! Also, most of their patrons are Indian :). Very interesting India music videos are shown sometimes. Theyre CLOSED a couple hrs between lunch & dinner, but you may remain seated during that time. The only drawback for me was that they stopped including lamb in the lunch buffet (now served during dinner), but still offer boney goat meat (this time it hadnt been slow-cooked enough as the meat was dark red close to the bone & too tough to easily separate). Their restrooms are kept super clean and fresh; 2 stalls in the females.

Had dinner this evening at India Kitchen on Red Hill Avenue in Tustin. Food was outstanding! We started with Pakoras that were wonderfully seasoned and served with Tamarind and Green Chili Chutney sauces. Then we shared Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Curry, Tamarind Rice with hot chili peppers and peanuts, and of course Naan. Everything was seasoned to our preference - hot. Outstanding! The food was so delightful, that we ordered take out Masala Dosa and Idly (a form of steamed rice and lentil bread) served with Sambhar. I cook Indian food and the food at India Kitchen is as good as eating in an Indian home. Pure delight! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting good tasty food and a wonderful atmosphere. The waiters are very polite and diligent - we never had to wait for water or service. If you want a taste of heaven, this is the place to go!

Best in class and service. Its an absolute class, the way they take care of you. Unlike many other restaurants, they take it to heart, on how you rate their food. I had ordered Aloo Mattar a little spicy and it came out as little too spicy which by the way I liked it as it was. Seeing it was too spicy for my wife, they gave her a complete new plate with medium spicy and not only didnt charge for it, they gave us a free mango pudding dessert as well. Where in this world we will get this kind of treatment. Food quality should be praised to the maximum. Try it once and you will never think of any other ... Kudos guys .. You are awesome. Keep up your good work.

If you are craving Indian food then look no more than this place. They have a excellent lunch buffet for like $9. They bring out garlic naan and if you are special dosas, They have all the basics, not ask me to name the dishes but the first section has samosas and fried goods, the next is vegetarian, then meats dishes and then finally dessert. My favorite was the butter chicken. Small dining area around the buffet table but the have other seating areas in the restaurant. Good food, but for how long? They have only been open for a few weeks, lets hope they keep the high standards of fresh and delicious food.

Service is always good. I have only opted for the AYCE buffet. 5 stars for Indian food is very tough because Im very picky (being of Indian heritage) but I can testify this is one of the better places in OC that isnt extremely fancy. Id recommend despite the location being a bit rough. Their chicken tandoori is very good for buffet (many places go cheap here). The garlic naan is great. They tend to the buffet if its busy or slow. Their gulab jamin is awesome for a buffet. When calculating in the 10 price point, I would passionately recommend this place. Great value.

Decent place for dinner. We came here with a groupon deal one night for dinner and ordered 2 entrees with a side of naan. The food was tasty, portions are medium to smaller sized including the rice. The naan is also smaller as well and a bit dry. The service was nice, absent at times, drinks not refilled. The menu is pretty standard Indian food with popular options, prices are average and reasonable for the area. Their lunch buffet special seems to be a much better option than ordering a la carte during dinner. Bathrooms are clean and parking was very easy.

Instagram: @koganei037 1st Impression: Upon entering the restaurant, it it quite spacious. The left side was open during lunch while the right side, the more fancier side was closed. My guess its that it would be open during dinner time. Food Impression: I was there for the lunch buffet for $9.99. There was plenty of different types of food and they all smelled great, and tasted even better. Mango Lassi was also good. Conclusion: I would definitely come back here for their lunch buffet. Price and quality of food, very worth it.

Our family had a wonderful lunch at this place. We had a vary good taste of indian food with blended mix of Indian spices and ingredients that simply added value to varieties of food including goat meat, chicken chilly, dosa, briyani and so forth. We really enjoyed the utmost hospitality and professional customer service .Every penny you will spend will be note worthy !!! We highly recommend India kitchen if you are interested in Indian food in Tustin, CA.

I love this restaurant. Its quiet and elegant. The service is perfect. The food is fresh, spicy and full of flavor. We tried a couple of the Indochinese dishes tonight and found them great. Hot and sour soup held an array of almost unrecognizable flavors. Very good. The chicken vindaloo was great in flavor but needed more chicken. Be careful how spicy you order your food. Spicy means Very Spicy to these folks.

Excellent Indian food from the salad and Samosas to the main dishes and desserts. Seldom have I seen such an excellent variety of food. Many times Indian buffets are full of potatoes, etc. but not this one. Excellent high quality food with plenty of the higher priced items included in the buffet. Plus the place is clean and the waiters are gracious and competent. My husband and I will definitely come again and again!

Great deal on a lunch buffet. Food was fresh and flavorful and the staff was on top of getting me a drink. I just wish the curry was a bit better... The butter chicken was just ok and had small bones that were missed when the chicken was prepped that i discovered while chewing. Granted this could happen anywhere and that was the only bite that had erroneous bits in it.

I was in Tustin, CA for my vacation and my cousin recommended me this restaurant. Best food I have had in a long time. It felt like home. Great customer service. They have variety of dishes on buffet with extremely reasonable price of $9.95. Trust me, its totally worth it. I went there couple of times during my week long stay in Tustin, it was that good.
