There was great love put into our food. Great portions and fresh ingredients. I enjoyed our conversations with the owners. We could tell that they value what they are doing.If you’re in a rush, this may not be a place for you. This is not a complaint, but just a heads up that service was a little slow which we expect when dining in a great restaurant.

Edit: Multiple price increases noted as soon as another Indian restaurant closed it’s does. Service is lacking. Food however is still delicious. Hopefully they don’t price themselves out.

Had to wait with the family and child to be seated… finally someone came. He took the order … starters were brought but forgot to bring drinks first. Somebody else finished his order. Food was not bad 3 out of 4 were good. But service was totally bad. Too much waiting time. 3 table were waiting. One even had to knock the door so he can pay his bill and go.

Originally—after opening—everything about the restaurant was up to par and even surpassed standards. Food was wonderful and consistent, servers were fast and attentive, and prices were higher, but reasonable. Each aspect has nosedived and it has become noticeable. Each return to dine in was accompanied with price changes and longer waits, even during slow hours. Certain dishes have also changed considerably since the beginning as well, which is disappointing. Not sure whether to blame it on labor shortage or something else, but it is no longer as pleasant of a restaurant as it used to be.

This is mine and my husbands favorite Indian restaurant in town(yes, we tried them all). We love dining in when the music is on, the atmosphere is very calm. My only complaint would be how to-go orders are bagged. Everything is put together in one bag so both times we ordered pickup, our entrees tipped over and leaked everywhere. Not the worst thing that could happen, but is definitely worth noting. Either way, the food is fantastic every time.

The place is really nice with a lot of veg options. The appetizers are very nice and they serve it with awesome green chutney.

First time trying Destination India since they opened (had the lunch buffet so we could try a little bit of everything) Very happy with it! We are not very familiar with Indian cuisine, but the gentlemen working were very nice and helped explain some of the different options. Overall satisfied and would definitely recommend!

I can’t believe that it took me so long to eat here. My husband and I went this past weekend and absolutely loved it. The shrimp tikka masala, the cauliflower, 65 and the bread basket were incredible. We will absolutely be back. What makes it even better is that it’s owned by an incredibly wonderful family. It’s easy to support good food and good people.
