Well, right after it opened the food was really tasty and very authentic. Weve since gone back 4 more times and each time has been sadly, progressively worse. The first chef is long gone, the place is almost always empty, the owner insists on trying to do everything himself with very mixed results and the layout of the place does not help. The upstairs is a bar and he and one woman who is very slow in service have to trudge up and down the stairs for any drink orders which bring the service to a crawl. Often they bring the wrong order to you and once when that happened the owner actually told us "no matter, it is all similar." Weve seen people come in get ignored and leave and people come in to place to go orders and are told to wait for 15 minutes just to take their order when the place had 4, count em 4, other guests in total. Bottom-line, unless you have an hour or more to waste go to "A Passage to India" on the other side of town. I give it 6 months at most until the place is bought and turned into yet another "Wings" bar.

I would have given 5 stars if the service was prompt or if they had more staff. As a Indian I felt like this place is more like a road side Dhaba. We stopped here on our way back to Atlanta from Florida. Dont go by the exterior or interior of the place. We place our order on phone and glad that we did that as they were short of staff and only two people present were handling restaurant though they told us same on phone. Now about the food it was authentic dhaba style food. Awesome chicken dishes and it was like homemade. If you happen to travel in this area must stop here for a quick bite. Make sure you call in advance and place your order to avoid delay. One suggestion to owner it will be great if you treat customers with some courtesy as the way you handled order of other customers that we saw when we were there was not good. If you are short of staff you can tell them upfront and I am sure customers will be happy and not complain about the same.

WOW!!! Holy shocker!!! I am in the process of eatting and had to write this while doing so, unbelievably good! We stopped for the evening and my family ordered pizza. Ive never had Indian food...so why not. Approaching the building made me rethink my choice, and when I went in it was quiet and empty aside from some locals...again rethinking. I let an incredibly nice man there know I was unsure what to order and told him my likes and he said no worries, it will be ready in 15 min. Back to the hotel with my food, and I cannot speak highly enough about this place. Incredible, and I think I may become an addict. I am shocked the line was not out the door!

I had a very delicious chicken Tikka Masala and mango lassi. Unfortunately, the lunch buffet that was advertised wasnt available so a large portion of the same thing wore me down. I believe the garlic naan I had was under cooked. It was chewy instead of crispy and tender and the garlic on top of it was raw. I was the only one in the whole place so service was excellent.

05.14.2017 Typical north Indian taste or should say a Dhaba style cooking. We tried Malai Kofta, Dal fry, bullet and garlic Nan at mild level. If you are a spice lover you can go for Spicy. Overall nice food, big Parking. Exterior and interior are old and its run by family of 2, so please expect bit delay if its a rush time but you will be glad to dine here.

best indian food ever, even though only 2 people working there, the chef is very friendly, you should totally go there. And to the people writing bad reviews - you know you cant manage a place like this alone, so instead of saying bad things, recite the good things that happened during your visit to help promote their business! :)

Very Good Food. Owner is very nice. My family and I came in a little skeptical DO NOT WORRY might not be the best looking place But the food is AMAZING. We were not sure what to order the owner who is also the chef said "let me order your food, if you dont like you do not have to pay " we loved every bit!

The food was really amazing!! On our way to Florida from Georgia, we had our dinner at this restaurant. I read reviews on google and chose this place and it turned out to be so good! Everyone loved the food and the service too!! It reminded us of the food we used to have in India..

We had a lovely meal here recently. The service was attentive and helpful. When they found out I had a food allergy, they went out of their way to adjust several dishes to accommodate me. And the food was fantastic! Some of the best Indian food Ive ever eaten!

Definitely a hidden gem. Some of the best Indian weve had. Lamb rogan josh and chicken Tikki Masala were so rich and tender. The Naan is amazing and fresh. Great prices and the owner is so friendly. More people need to know about this place.

Best indian food Ive ever eaten in my life. The service is a little slow but its because theres only two people. The owner is an extremely nice guy , so go give a local business a chance. Very fairly priced. I would eat there again.

Deserves waiting your dish. I went to India 2007, and I have got the same experience at this restaurant! It is not Americanized Indian Restaurant, it is a real Indian restaurant.

I have lived all over the Southeast, Seattle, and Chicago and this is my favorite Indian restaurant. Surprising that something this good is in little ol Valdosta.

Was nervous to go in but the food tasted amazing and the guy was very friendly and helpful. Dont be discouraged by the lack of traffic, definitely recommend.

pros: good tasty food, hospitality and fast service Cons: expensive and the quantity of food is less, plate of biryani will be less for 1 person
