My wife suggested me to try this place after checking some options. We really liked and enjoyed. The all you can eat buffet is $15.99 per person. The menu includes Samosa, pakoras, tandoori chicken, panneer butter masala, chicken butter masala, palak paneer, chicken biryani, goat curry, gulab jamun and mango pudding – goat curry and pudding was awesome, don’t miss trying these. I have added pics of menu. The staffs were polite and respectful. I certainly would recommend this place.

Amazing food and service. Let us sit outside with the dog and we were able to order off the menu while the buffet was closed. Very popular place with people coming in and out the entire time we were there with takeout. Waiter was super attentive and the food was absolutely phenomenal, best curry in the region.

Great lunch buffet 11am to 3pm for 16 bucks! You can get in and out for a quick weekday lunch and be plenty stuffed. Their naan is delicious, desserts are great and curries are perfect! They have butter chicken, chicken curry, chicken Tikka and then some vegetarian offerings. Highly recommend for any fan of Indian buffets.

I was visiting LA and had stopped for Tesla super charging. India Gate Restaurant was in the same complex. So we decided to have lunch there. Thank god, the food was extremely good. It was a buffet lunch. I never had such good tandoori roti, the chicken biryani and wow, the mutton was super soft. What I liked and observed even more was the staff. What a coordination!! There were I believe 3 on floor and may be 1 more on and off filling up the chafing dishes. Though the place was full, the staff were extremely attentive to everyone. We did not have to wait for anything at all. Overall this place is Tooooo Good and I highly recommend you give it. A try. I loved this place and the hospitality, I saw an equal number of non Indians who were enjoying the cuisine.

As a business traveler, I like to try new restaurants I drive by. The lots of parking was inviting, the space very clean, there was a hospitable customer service staff, and super fresh and excellent food. I would definitely love to bring my friends and family back next time I am in town. Thank you!

I discovered this place 5-6 months ago and for the first few times I ordered from the food quality was top notch. But for whatever reason, the food I’ve gotten with my recent orders have been poor in quality. Today, I received cold and bland food. So, my 5 star review will be changed to 1 star simply because this has been a consistent experience over the last few orders and not an isolated incident. Such a shame! Though I found a good local Indian restaurant.
