This is not an angry review. This restaurant actually deserves one star. We went there with only three tables occupied at the time. We ordered our food within 5 minutes of being seated there. The waiter had no idea of what was on the menu, we are quite familiar with the cuisine and had a clear idea what to order but had to repeatedly point to the menu to make him understand. Then the long wait... oh the wait! As already stated, the place was barely filled but still, it took them 50 minutes to bring food to the table. Most importantly, the food was bad, like really bad. I am an Indian and I know when the food is average but it was not, it was bad. We were so hungry that we had it anyways. The service was pathetic, the food was inedible. We needed water but after keeping food on the table, we had a hard time finding the waiter. I even waited around 10 minutes and finally had to walk to the cash register to let them know that we wanted to pay. Think twice before going there, there are a lot of other options nearby, or better still, get a frozen pizza from the Freshfarm nearby and enjoy at home. Will save you a lot of frustration and money.

We were looking for a catering service for our Picnic event. We looked at few places and given order finally to Siri. 1. Staff are very friendly and attentive 2. We had onsite Poori stall, it was big hit taste and execution wise. 3. Delivered all food as they committed 4. The way they put all food stands ,food burners , name tags and got spoons also at picnic place, I never seen any Resturant executing at picnic site like private event.... I was Fidda for this point. 5. Food was very taste, arrived on time to the picnic site 6. Delivered wonderful Tea in flasks 7. Very reasonable rates.... 8. All in all, they did great. Bottom line, they are passionate folks and dreaming big.... If they give service the way they are doing today.... in no time there dreams will come true.

A lovely restaurant with delicious food and great service. We had a large group of 10 adults and several children and ordered everything family style. This allowed us to taste so many different items on the menu. Its difficult to name favorites but I highly recommend the cashew chicken appetizer, tandoori chicken and the bosa. The bread basket with various curries - also exceptional. We had great recommendations from our waiter and the owner. I especially appreciated that the waiter was able to walk me through the menu and ensure I didnt order anything with MSG as I am quite allergic. The restaurant itself is elegant, crisp, and clean. The minimalist design is offset by dramatic original artwork (which is also for sale). A great experience, we will be back!

I cannot say enough good things about Siri Indian restaurant. I went there for their lunch buffet (I am obsessed with Indian food) and I left feeling like I was part of a family and like I had made new friends. I came near the end of the buffet and the staff treated me like royalty. They showed me how to eat pani puri, recommended different sauces and taught me more that I didnt know about Indian cuisine and culture. The vegetarian offerings are ample and inventive. I encountered several dishes that I have not tried yet in my longstanding obsession with Indian food. They told me there is a dosa night on Tuesday, so Ill be back there next week! This place is amazing. I want to live there.

We live close by and love Indian cuisine. Really hoping that this could be our spot, but alas it will not be. The service was ok. All of the servers were very attentive but communication was diffucult and actual delivery of food and drink was slower. I love very spicy food and after many attempts to explain I would like my food just below "Indian hot" everything was mild. The wine selection was poor and glassware dirty. The actual food was decent, but nothing spectacular. Maybe the lunch buffet is better? I will try again in a few months because of the proximity, but for better experiences Ill stay with my other Indian restaurants.

This was one of my worst experiences at an Indian restaurant in the US. The owner doesnt know how to talk to customers. I asked him about the taxes on my bill and I was genuinely concerned about it I didnt want to get ripped. He told me that the tax rate that he had applied was aligned with it was. Thats fine but he was being extremely arrogant about it and actually told me that if I wanted more info about it then I would need to pay him more because he was spending me. I think these kind of restaurants with such arrogant businessmen should be boycotted. That guy was acting he was doing a favor serving food!

Saw you at Long Grove Chocolate fest and thought a fresh fried Samosa with maybe some sort of chutney would be wonderful so I stopped by the booth. What I received was a frozen Samosa microwaved for 40 seconds and a packet of sriracha. The Samosa was soggy and tasted mostly like bland potato. When every other vender is serving fresh food from fryers and grills and you only have 2 microwaved at your booth, you need to step your game up. Pretty disappointing. 2 stars because it wasnt the worst thing I have ever eaten, but I could have gotten a better Samosa from Jewel.

One of the worst indian restaurants I have been to. After many of my friends praised the food, we finally went there and here is my review: 1. Only 1 startedr for veg and non veg and idli was the veg starter, comparing to other places where there is some 2-3 starters. 2. Nan were not properly cooked. 3. All curries were too sour..only daal makhni was good. 4. Gulqb jamun were cold..and hard 5. Biryani / rice were too dry.. 6. The raita was sour and turned bad (slimy) Overall i will not suggest anyone to go to this place..!!

If you are going to order takeout, please be mindful that the dishes may not be the way you ordered them. For instance, the level of spiciness or oiliness of the food. I was specific as to keep them both to the minimal levels possible. However, the caller at their end persuaded (Although, I had only requested for a suggestion from their end) to go for the Andhra chicken curry, which was exact opposite of mild. We were unable to consume the food and had to re-order from another Indian restaurant.

We have excellent experience with Siri recently. Siri is one of the best indian restaurants in the area and their food is awesome. Of all the restaurants we tried so far, Siri is best. We had catering at our place for 60+ people along with onsite Dosa. I cannot say enough good things about great experience that we had. Ramesh was there all the time and took care of every aspect of catering. On top of that the delivery is FREE. Absolutely free delivery, no strings. Wonderful experience.

Food is okay, can get better food at different restaurants in the area. Service was really really slow. There were only 5 people in the restaurant (all from 1 family) and had to wait 30-45 minutes for the food to come to us. Naan was not cook properly and the waiter didnt know what was his duty. We had to ask him to clear our table and bring dinner plates as the dinner was ready on the table and was getting clod. Not worth the price to wait so long for okay food.
