The worst place ever. I wouldnt even give them one star. They are just ripping people off. We went there for Mothers Day with my family, first we were told that we needed a reservation. Then couple of minutes later we were placed for seating. We were told that it was buffet only. No one made us aware of the price for the buffet. There was no price posted anywhere. I went to put food on my kids plate. Had a instinct that I dont even know how much are we paying for this. I asked and they said "oh no one told you" I told the front receptionist that you are the one who placed us in our seat, you told us about the buffet but didnt mention any price. It was $29.95 per person. We were 7, I mean DAMN!!!! Its pricey, its not like a 5star restaurant. It was our first and our last time there. If we knew it was that pricey I wouldnt even gone. If we didnt ask the price, they would have given us a nice pricey surprise. The food was cold and the service was even worse. We ended up just feeding and paying for our kids. Be aware of the price and stay away. They ruined my Mothers Day dont let them ruin your special occasion. DO NOT GO THERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE RIPPED OFF!

Good food but I am quite unhappy with some of the staff. It seems like every time they have a good employee, you never see them again. There are some people that have been working there for sometime that have been great, others not so much. Ive been going to this place on and off since 2006. My waitress on Saturday night barely tended to us. When we ordered more Naan, it never came and we were charged for it. So many times my order has come out wrong. I have seen them have new management and employees time and time again. I have had some exceptional experiences there as well, especially with the older male waiter that has been there for sometime...but the bad is outweighing the good at this point. It has been 5 years that Ive been coming here and they should maintain some type of standard. Anyway, We paid for it because we were tired of her waiting to come up to our table and didnt want to wait another 45min just to pay our bill, and their auto tip for her was ridiculous... but I decided I just wont come back anymore. Its a great environment with good food, its a shame that they dont have enough good waiter/waitresses, just a handful..

We had heard a lot about this restaurant (Advertisement in every single Indian Newspaper ) The other day we visited for dinner as it was our Wedding anniversary ...BAD CHOICE.... 1st of all we were not given enough time to choose what we wanted to order, as the waiter was much more in hurry than us, and the food what we ordered was asked to be made "spicy" but - it turned out to be next to worst without any taste in it (non-spicy).We had ordered Roti which was completely forgotten and only after re-checking with the manager,he said we will try and check if its done.. When the manager asked us how is everything- we said NO not really - Nothing is good! The waiter never ever bothered to get back to us for the service once the food was served.(to check if we are doing good) Such a disgusting restaurant - never ever seen till now in my life so far. While paying the bill - we wrote clearly "BAD SERVICE" & "Zero" Tip .. why the hell on the earth will you really pay for such a poor service ...???? My single star is only for the Ambiance - thats it! Rest is "0" Our dinner was completely ruined .... Please do not visit this restaurant!!!!

First of all the service was very slow and it took forever for me to receive my food. Second of all it seems none of the waiters know anything themselves! I ask them multiple questions and they just say "Ill check with the manager." Finally I purchased a Groupon for this restraunt and everything was fine until I receive the bill. They charged me 18% gratuity even though the menu clearly states that only partys of 5 or more will be charged gratuity. I thought this was a mistake so kindly asked to speak with the manager. After 10 minutes he came and said the most bs explanation ever. Apparently Groupon customers no matter how big the party get charged gratuity (it never stated that on the Groupon). Then he proceeds to talk about how I should be happy Im giving the poor waiters tips even though he takes a large majority of it! If he really cared about the well being of his employees he would pay them more. Nanking is dishonest and scamming their customers!

Ive been here a couple of times and Ive always enjoyed it. I like the variety of the menus. If you dont feel like Indian then you can have Asian Fusion. The Indian dishes are the best in my opinion.The Asian dishes can be hit or miss hence the one star deduction. The lollipop chicken appetizer is amazing! My mouth is watering now just thinking about it. Other good dishes include the vindaloo, rogan josh, and chicken in hot garlic sauce.. Last night we had a wonderful waitress who was very happy to give suggestions and explanations. She was one of the best waitresses Ive had in long time, patient, attentive, efficient. The ambiance is also really great especially for a romantic time. I highly recommend it.

This is my second visit to this establishment . First time the food was good but the service was just OK. So we decided to give them another shot, this time the food was horrible. We didnt get the right food we ordered ,all the food we got tasted old. But the worst of all was the service .The waiter came in three time during the entire meal first to take the order then when the order came and finally with the check. Didnt ask how the food was or if we needed anything . and while the check was given the bus boy started cleaning the table while we still there..overall bad experience and will never go back or recommend to anyone.

I visited the restaurant two days ago, I had the worst experience ever, the restaurant smelled so awful, the smell from there bathroom area was smelled everywhere. The glasses on the table when we arrived had lipstick marks on it, cutlery was dirty. The server forgot half the stuff we ordered, The food quality was so bad, there was a party going on when we arrived, I believe they served us leftover from the party as everything was cold when we received it. Last but no the least, the restaurant is over priced. They really need to work on quality and service for the place..

Disappointed at the taste of food. The restaurant and party hall looks very nice and some what fancy. They have separate Chinese and Indian menu to choose from. I went to eat on a Saturday around 3pm and it was some what crowded. I ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Tandoori Chicken for 2 people. The Tandoori Chicken did not taste that great but Chicken Tikka Masala was better and the Nan bread was excellent. The Tandoori Chicken tasted "old" and not freshly cooked. (See photo)The service is ok, The bill without tip was $41 dollars.
