Unfortunately, this was quite disappointing. We ordered butter chicken and tikka masala, and ran into several issues. First, they mixed up the spice levels on our dishes - not a huge deal, but confusing when you're expecting a certain heat level. The bigger problem was the butter chicken. There was barely any chicken in the dish, and the few pieces that were there were extremely dry. Both curries had very watery sauce consistency, which made them feel more like soup than proper curry. Garlic naan was also whatever read more

Ordered Lamb Biryani Togo and it was ready to go by the time I arrived - SO fast. The Biryani and naan were great. Look forward to coming back! read more

The meal for two is an amazing deal with a lot of GREAT food. You get to try a little bit of everything. The service here is always fast, and they are quick to get you seated. I recommend this spot! read more

Grateful to the Asiana staff for being so welcoming/accommodating for a family with kiddos and friends from out of town (who had no idea what to order!). Staff recommended some good dishes for those didn't want spice, and some better dishes for those of us who know that spice is life. Would definitely get the extra garlic naan options or pakora- these were both great to share. Most of the mains are ~$15, so very reasonable for comparable restaurants nearby. Would like to come back again to try a few more things on the menu! Plenty of parking and great music to accompany lunch or dinner. read more

The service was okay and one of our water had a black spec in there. The vindaloo wasn't spicy at all and lacked flavor but the korma was delicious!! It's a good place for a quick meal. read more

We had been here on a weekend for lunch en route to Austin. This Indian restaurant was very nice, spacious with lots of parking space. The taste was delicious and the service was nice. The naan was especially good. read more

I ate lunch with a friend today and we were wowed! The extensive menu has something for any taste. I like nondairy mildly spiced food, my friend likes spicy and doesn't mind dairy. We split an order of samosas--just spicy enough to be pleasant for me. The sweet sauce was the perfect compliment. I ordered the shrimp tandoori-- a delicious light dish of pan fried shrimp with delicate spices on a bed of shredded greens. My friend ordered lamb Tikka Masada. Not too spicy for me ( she ordered it mild), and so tender it cut with the side of a fork. What a feast! The service was attentive and polite, and we easily finished out lunch in an hour. A truly divine experience! We will return soon. read more

Asiana is a respectable option if one is seeking fresh Indian food in South Austin. Every time we've gone it seems like the dining room was mostly empty, but several people came in and out to pick up their to-go orders. To be fair, every time we visited, it was after lunch time and before dinner time, usually mid-afternoon, so that could explain why there were so few diners. The food though is good and prices are fair. I remember particularly liking their lunch time thali plate which features many of their specialties. It's a great way to sample a new place and their offerings without breaking the bank. Their curries are good and the service was quick and polite. The place has been clean every time we visited. Portions are generous and we ended up with leftovers. Nothing negative to report! I recommend it if you're in the area. This is an Indian place that won't disappoint. read more

Excellent Indian cusuine. We had dinner there the other night and the service was great. Every single item we had was just terrific. Food was fresh and tasty. You can appreciate how much effort goes into such well prepared food. Highly recommend! read more

My wife and I ordered from Asiana and honestly this was terrible. The garlic naan was completely flat, soaked in oil, and had zero flavor. My chicken tikka masala came with maybe five tiny pieces of chicken for almost eighteen dollars. The sauce was watery, had no taste at all, and the rice just drowned in it. I've had Indian food all over and never had sauce this bad. They even messed up the spice levels, made the butter chicken medium and the tikka masala mild when I ordered the opposite. I was so disappointed. The only decent thing was that the food arrived warm, but that doesn't make up for how bad everything else was. I don't recommend this place. read more

* 4.5 stars * Excellent choice for Indian food in South Austin! Run don't walk! Spacious restaurant with plenty of parking in the plaza. Great location off I35. Service was attentive, quick and water was never empty. Biryani was one of the best we've had. Garlic naan came with 4 big pieces - YUM. We saw plenty of to-go orders. Would definitely come again! read more

By far the worst Indian food I've ever tasted. I ordered the Sambar and there was no lentils in it only vegetables. It lacked flavor so I ordered some traditional Dal and although it had yellow lentils it wasn't any better than the Sambar. It lacked a lot of flavor, it was extremely liquefied. It wasn't thick and none of the food had spices. The basmati rice was bland and dry. The wait service pretty okay, there was this chubby guy that asked us 10 thousand times how we were to the point it made the experience bad because he was bothering us. I asked him for water. He came back to the table with the water in his hands then asked if I needed water. I was thinking, okay this guy must be tired because I just asked for some. I think the food lacks flavor because the main clientele. The food is terrible and if you don't enjoy spice or flavor just blandness definitely come here. Even the gobi Manchurian was awful. I won't be returning and not recommending. Even my African friend kept emphasizing that this was the worst Indian food she has ever tasted. read more

Came here to treat some friends for helping me look for a house. We haven't found a house but we know we can always find a good meal here. I usually do takeaway and have only eaten inside the restaurant a few times so I was excited. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and seated. The restaurant wasn't crowded which made for a nice calm and quiet environment on a saturday afternoon lunch. I was given a glass of water while I waited for my friends. When they arrived we were serviced immediately. I got my usual (lamb rogan josh). What I didn't know that apparently the dine in menu is different from the takeaway menu. Maybe I just ordered wrong. But ordering my meal, I didn't know it didn't come as a complete meal with saag paneer, veggies, naan and rice. It was the lamb and rice with naan ordered separately. In any case, it was all DELICIOUS as usual. I'll definitely eat inside the restaurant more. read more

Sometimes when you walk into a restaurant that serves a cuisine you're not used to, the waiter makes you feel dumb. This was NOT the case here. When I admitted I wasn't well versed on the food, the waiter asked me a few questions about what kind of meat I liked, what heat level I would enjoy and took the time to explain the sides. It was as educational as it was delicious. I ended up choosing chicken as my protein and asked the waiter to bring me what he would order... and at a spice level that wasn't trying to kill me. And it was extremely delicious. Next time I'll add a little more heat... as I think he went a little easy on me. read more

I called before coming in to ask what brand chicken they use since they claim to be halal and the person who answered said he didn't know but he knows it's halal. How can you be sure it's halal but not know the brand?? Then he said he will ask the manager and came back and said the manager said we don't share those details but it's halal. Something is very FISHY. If you're looking for halal AVOID THIS PLACE. read more

The best masala dosa I've had in South Austin! The Lamb biryani was very flavorful, too. Great service! Our waitress was very helpful, attentive and friendly. I plan to go back next time I want Indian food! read more

Party of Six; everyone's God was great. Each plate was served at the requested heat level. Somosas were excellent; chai was very tasty. Nan was served hot. Service was exceptional. All questions were answered patiently. It was quiet but friendly atmosphere. Note: Separate tickets with tip included. We will return. read more

Glad that I overcame my reservation about the shopping plaza and the urge to order through an app. The dining area was a pleasing combo of open and stylish and the host was welcoming and knew the menu so our quick collab was fun. The order came out quickly and the food was blazing hot. Having ordered just a few items, leaving a review seems a bit premature but I will be back for naan or soup or samosas and more. read more

The server, manager, and cook were all super friendly and attentive without being annoying. The food was quick, fresh, hot, and DELICIOUS! We ordered lamb curry, lentil soup, samosas, butter chicken, and garlic naan. The portions for the price was great, and the space was very clean as well. Will definitely return :) read more

It was my first time visiting Asiana with my partner who was craving some quality Indian food and after reading online reviews we decided to check out Asiana. We ordered chicken curry and chicken tikka masala. The server helped me switch out the rice that comes with the tikka masala with plain naan without charge. The chicken curry was decent but the bigger blocks of chicken resulted in the interior being a little dry. I chopped up my chicken tikka masala to encourage more sauce absorption. I loved the combination of the chicken tikka masala with the naan! The tangy sauce and the nicely crisped naan were a match made in heaven. As someone who isn't naturally drawn towards Indian food, their tikka masala is definitely something I would want again. Their serving size was enough and good value for the cost. We ended up taking the chicken curry to go since we both worked on finishing the tikka masala (it's a lot of chicken!) We also ordered veggie samosa and while it also was a portion size befitting the price, it was a little more disappointing personally because the exterior wasn't as crisp. Overall it was a great first experience. The interior looked clean and the furniture looked new. The servers were also very accommodating. read more

Consistently outstanding vegetarian Indian food in Austin This was my second visit to Asiana Indian Cuisine, and it absolutely confirmed why I came back. I ordered the vegetarian special, which is a phenomenal value for the money--but more importantly, it's consistently delicious. Fresh, well-balanced flavors, generous portions, and clearly prepared with care rather than shortcuts. What really elevates the experience, though, is the staff. Everyone is warm and welcoming, and Brittany and Roja (apologies if I'm misspelling!) were especially wonderful--attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a great experience. It's rare to find a place that delivers both quality and value so reliably. Asiana has become a go-to for me, and I'll absolutely be back again. Highly recommend, especially if you're vegetarian read more

I ordered about $100 worth of food from here last night. I got the tandoori chicken, lamb chops, goat vindaloo, Palak Daal, rice and naan. It was the most disappointing meal I've ever had. It was unfortunate to spend so much for such poor quality food. The lamb chops were so dry and over cooked that it was not enjoyable. I could not even bite through the lamb chops. I couldn't rip a piece off of them. I am a lamb lover, tried lamb all over the world and this was the worst. The meat was gritty due to being over cooked and no amount of chewing let me get through the meat. I think they put yogurt on the meat but it just bubbled and looked unappetizing. The goat vindaloo was mostly bones. Like with the tiniest amount of meat on them. It may not have even been 1 oz of meat. It was a bowl of bones. I don't know why a restaurant would serve people this food. I do not recommend wasting your money here. I am not sure how they have the reviews that they do. Whoever was the cook last night should consider another career. This was the worst cooked food. I am not even sure how it was so bad. I've had well done lamb and this was not that. I still have most of the food. Please restaurant owners look at whatever was going on last night and never let it happen again. read more

I believe this to be the best a Indian food in Austin. The restaurant itself is simple and functional - part of a strip mall, but very clean and attractive. But the food is transcendent and the menu has a lot of dishes you find nowhere else in this City. I wish more people knew of this restaurant. I can't imagine someone coming here for a meal and leaving disappointed. Oh, yes ... the chef here makes the best naan I have ever tasted, including what I had in a wonderful Indian restaurant in Giza, Egypt. The woman who took my order this evening said they were going to begin a weekend lunch buffet in February. I will be here often, make no mistake. Just wonderful food in a clean environment. Give it a try! read more

Food was delicious! We were 1 of 2 tables in the restaurant and it took a while for our food to come out, but that was probably because our food was being made with love in the back. Very satisfied! read more

Plenty of space and many to go orders. Food was great and decent portions too and tasty, never seen the orange soup come with so dipping that with my naan was different. Chicken 65 was nice and lean and kebabs was different as it had mozzarella on it but still tasty, was chunky if you like that. Food came one at a time and had to wait on the naan, usually comes together so best to mention that. read more

Decent Indian food and many options for North Indian and Indo Chinese cuisine. They used to have dosas too but have discontinued South Indian food for some reason. Gobi manchurian was a bit tasteless without any saucy coating. Veg noodles and paneer tikka (less paneer more veggies) were quite good. Service is quick and friendly. read more

Great Indian spot with good service! We ordered the onion pakoras, butter chicken and chicken biryani and everything had very good flavor. The portions were also huge. I would return for sure. The place also was not very full but there were quite a few takeout orders. read more

Food: 4/5 Asiana serves up some great curry and samosas at a decent price. Definitely worth stopping by for lunch since they won't be as busy as they are at dinner. Service: 5/5 They're on top of it here making sure our drinks were always full and explaining the menu well to help us make a decision. Environment: 4/5 Great chairs, but loud music and a bit empty feeling on the inside. read more

Service was slow. Water was slow. Check was slow. If you're running a but late do not recommend this place. Food was authentic and was worth the wait. Did not like the Sambar since it was too thick. Tomato & Coconut chutneys along with the Gun Powder were amazing. My order: Masala Dosa Ghee Roast Samosa Salt Lassi Loved the Samosa. It was fresh and good. The dosas were perfect! Ghee Roast was crisp to the point. read more

We came in on Saturday night on the Memorial Day weekend. Plenty of seating available. Service was good. Kadai paneer had too much of the tomato gravy, we prefer it to be bit more on the drier side. We have had better Kadai Paneer elsewhere. Dahl was quite simple just like homemade. Naan and kulfi were good read more

I used to like this place, going back to way before the Covid days. But the last two times have sucked. Bland, no flavor, I might as well have eaten the napkin. About as good as the stuff in the pouch from the grocery store. Gotta find me a new Indian joint.... read more

Placed Togo order, inside looked ok just empty at dinner time. Ordered chicken 65 and bone in goat biryani. The chicken 65 had to be thrown away, horribly dry and foul smelling chicken, tasted like raw breading and dry dry chicken, no flavor. This is perhaps the worst chicken 65 I've ever experienced. I am shocked and astounded they would even sell this product. When I called for a refund they refused and said to call back for a manager, can't get ahold of the manager. The goat biryani was ok just no bones and very little meat. Plenty of great Indian places in Austin, maybe this place was once good but they have fallen hard. Will not return and you should not patronage this place ever. read more

Asiana is a nice place to have South Indian dishes. We arrived around evening, and the owners and staff were very kind and accommodating. Inside, the restaurant was very neat and organized. The masala dosa was very good, perfectly crisped on the outside and the potato masala filling was also full of flavour. The red chutney and the sambar were a bit disappointing, however the coconut chutney made the dish. Unfortunately I did not try the other dishes, but I'm sure that it would be great. read more

This has to be the driest butter chicken I've ever had in my entire life. How could something be soooo dry when it is in a moist sauce? Saag Paneer was very liquidy and very creamy and not much seasoning. I do not know how this place get such high reviews. Also the cheese naan was like American cheese? It was like a grilled cheese sandwich in flavor. We waited for 15 minutes for them to get us our box and let us pay after we asked for the check. They were talking behind the counter for the entire time and there was only one table in the entire restaurant and no to go orders that I saw. read more

Solid! There's something stark about this spot, but I can't pinpoint what it is. It might just be the bright overhead lighting. That being said, it's clean, spacious, and pretty quiet. Although it was pretty empty when I went late in the evening on a weekday. I can't say anything about a busier time of business. The service is great here. Fast, friendly, and willing to offer suggestions. I dined with a vegan and they told us one of the naan options we were going to order actually had animal products in it, we had no clue. She even suggested another option which was pretty good. The food is solid. The Saag Paneer is not something I'd drive out of the way for, but I definitely would pop in if I'm in the area craving Indian food. I wouldn't say no to coming back, and I'd try something else. read more
