Always great Indian food. I only wish they would bring the color and ambiance of India to the decor. I love the food but definitely a place for takeout. read more

Hands down the best Indian restaurant in town. I was in yesterday and the food was so delicious. The garlic naan was especially tasty and the paneer in my dish was the perfect texture. So glad you all are here! read more

Whenever I come back to my hometown in Ohio, I take my best friend to Cafe India. The pakoras are amazing, and there's always fast and friendly service. I also appreciate the wide variety of vegan options! I would definitely give it a go if you like Indian food. read more

Amazing food! We were visiting from California and often eat at Indian restaurants. IMO Cafe India is an authentic Indian food. We had the samosas, tandoori, naan, paratha, and buttered chicken. We definitely will go back! read more

This place is AMAZING! Located in a strip mall so parking is pretty easy. Thai is my go to place in the area for Indian food. We don't live in the area which is sad because I crave Cafe India. I have not found a single place that comes close to the taste of the food here. The portion sizes are massive and easy shareable dishes. Everything I've ever had here has been amazing but if I had to pick one thing to try it would be the goat biryani! read more

Secret menu must: vegetable Mongolian. Paneer app was really good too. Was hoping for more with the chicken Rogan Josh... it was really red when I was expecting yogurt in the sauce. Bf asked for Indian hot, and came out exactly like my 'mild plus'. So I'm going to see what their more sechwan kind of stuff is like, but maybe not the Indian?... read more

Nice gem in Boardman, Grabbed the Chicken Masala and Veggie Samosas. Both were absolute . Customer service is always great. The food is flavorful and the portions are more than enough! Nice atmosphere and lighting inside for those that enjoy a dine in experience. read more

A wonderful restaurant friendly atmosphere great food. The buffet is well served with excellent choices. Staff always ready to be of service. Prices very reasonable if you never eaten authentic Indian cuisine I suggest you try it here. It's always a pleasure to have lunch here. read more

This is a nice little quiet spot in a strip mall. The menu is extensive, offering some fusion style recipes. We ordered chicken curry, a shrimp/spinach dish, and garlic naan. Everything was delish, and the service was great. They even offer a buffet, but it wasn't up at the time we visited on a Sunday. Overall, great experience, great food. read more

l've been going here for a couple of years now and they haven't missed once. Every time I come back to town this is the first food spot I hit and they never disappoint. The Cafe India special is always my go to and the amount of food you get is crazy; the Garlic naan is amazing, the chicken tiki masala is juicy, the curry is perfect, and the korma is delicious. My servers name was Rose and she was awesome and recommended beers for me. read more

My daughter and I had a lovely lunch at Cafe India the other day. I am cautious these days, and the Cafe's efforts to reduce risks was clearly evident. Tables were spaced and our server was masked. Everything sparkled it was so clean. Lunch was fantastic! We started with the Aloo Tikki Chaat which was very yummy. I never can decide what to order, so because dining Stan Indian restaurant is always a special treat I ordered two entrees. Hey - leftovers are delicious! My order was the Chicken Rogan Josh to try something new and Chicken Korma to get one of my favorite Indian dishes. My daughter got her favorite - Chicken Tikka Masala, and we sampled each other's treats. All were delicious and perfectly spiced. Dessert (you bet we ordered dessert) was Pistachio Kulfi. Yes, we were stuffed and had enough for a second lunch the next day. There was only one server, but I didn't mind. That's fewer people and more distancing and the restaurant is a smallish space. But be sure to take that into consideration when dining in as you might have a bit longer wait. But even so, things were pretty quick. I would love to return when their buffet is reopened. Really good food and worth the trip for us. read more

The food and service was so good. They did a great job of taking care of our large party of 12. The staff is so nice and was really good at getting the perfect spice level for each of us. Offered complimentary desert at the. Again so nice! read more

I love the food and service. It's such a cosy atmosphere. Definitely going an again soon!!

Was in the area from Cleveland. The lunch buffet was $12.99 - sign on the door but the website does not give the price. We arrived at 11:30 a.m on this Saturday and the setup on the buffet was being completed. The restaurant is clean and the staff is polite. There were plenty of options. Not a ton of spice, samosas were just good - lacking some flavor. But for the price, you will leave satisfied. Support your local businesses. read more

Excellent food and service All dishes we've eaten so far were excellent. We're lucky to have an Indian restaurant in our area. Luckier that food is authentic. read more

Amazing food. Each dish we ordered and shared was perfect. We also got the bread basket and thoroughly enjoyed the 3 kinds of Naan. Service was excellent but non-intrusive. I will definitely go out of my way to eat here next time I'm driving thru on the turnpike! read more

I ordered a plate of momos, but they were served undercooked. I thought it happens, not a big deal, and politely asked if they could steam them for a few more minutes. I tore a small part of the momo wrapper to show them it was not chewable. However, they returned after a couple of minutes and insisted that "momos are supposed to be that way." They offered me the option to order something else if I didn't like it, but I didn't want to wait another 20 minutes for a replacement order. The people who work there seemed nice, but I think whoever works in the kitchen spoils the experience. read more

The best Indian food in the area by a mile. Never had a bad meal there. Plan on going back.

Super cozy atmosphere with a plethora of different dishes. Came for the buffet because I like to try things I normally wouldn't order. This is the place to do it!! read more

Exceptional food & service 10/10. Picked up some take out. Was simple amazing. Just what we wanted. The garlic naan was awesome. The korma so good. read more

Food was good. Service was poor. Would like to go back on a weekend and try the buffet. I believe it is $13.

Parking isn't that great and the decor is totally outdated. Outside of that, there's not much to gripe about. The staff is friendly, the service is pretty reasonable as far as the wait time goes and the food is good. The garlic naan is exceptionally tasty as is the rest of their naan however, I'd suggest dining in if you're going to eat it as it tends to get a bit soggy if you get it to go. All in all, I would recommend eating here. read more

Hidden Gem, amazing food! Happy that family run restaurants are still possible. We need to support places like this , and reasonable prices.

Great authentic Indian food. I've had lots of different entrees, and everything is always very good. Whenever I get carry out, the food is always ready on time. read more

This is a very good place. We ordered yellow dal, shahi paneer and Chicken haka noodles. Every Indian dish tastes on the spot from a panjabi. This is what it should taste like back in north India. I wish I ordered vegetable haka noodles instead of chicken noodles though. The chicken is grilled, sliced and stir fried in the noodles. I felt it doesn't belong to the noodles. Haka noodles is some form of fusion that has its own soul now, but as a person who is still having a Chinese tongue, would prefer to have meat stir fried, not grilled in the "magic" wok. read more

Cafe India - haka noodles - Indian Near Me - Boardman, Ohio

I've ordered from here before for delivery and really loved the food, but today I actually went into the location for the first time and was blown away. The already-great food was incredible when fresh (especially the naan and the tamarind sauce that came with our samosa appetizer). The service was top-notch; super friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and quick. Very comfortable decor with great music. We were told they're going to be branching out into more cocktails soon, including ones inspired by Indian food, and I'm looking forward to going back! read more

Good for the only Indian place within 30 a minute drive. I'll take what I can get. Coming from Columbus OH where there are 30 Indian places within 20 mins. It's not great but it's also not terrible. I definitely eat this at-least once a month. read more

Love this place good food good service price is good love the Sunday buffet good price nice place to eat I go 6-7 a month my whole family loves this place as week I definitely recommend this place read more

Chicken Korma, veggie samosas and the chicken tikka masala are phenomenal. Even reheated the next day, everything I've ever ordered here has been fantastic. I want to try more things on the menu, but the korma is so good I usually can't get anything else read more

Excellent food and service very nice place to eat!! Our server explained the dishes and did not get upset at our questions. We will definitely be back! read more

We went here for the first time today and it was definitely one of the best Indian restaurants I've been to. All of the food is delicious and fragrant. The art and decor inside is colorful and comforting, they play really nice calming music, and the staff is very inviting and friendly. It's definitely worth a lot more than we paid. And every time I come north to visit my family in the future, I'm gonna have to make a stop here. read more

This is a fantastic little restaurant! Their buffet is wonderful, full of variety and the staff is always friendly. Tastes just like the food at home in India, and that's exactly what I was looking for! Just wish the lunch hours were a little longer...however if you are there close to the end of lunch, they DO let you stay...they never ask you to leave. read more

If you want authentic food from the subcontinent, then Cafe India is the place you order from. From Vindaloos to Tandoori oven-baked meats and naan, you will have the taste of India here. Dilse Indian! read more

I tried the Combo for 2. The food was really good!! I loved the chicken curry and the naan. Tasted just like the amazing Indian food I tried in NYC. I'll be coming back for sure! Very friendly family service. read more

We came to this location about 5 years ago and were not impressed. Recently, a neighbor suggested we go back, as they changed ownership about 2 years ago. Thank God we did...it was much improved! Great value on the pricing, friendly staff. The food in the lunch buffet was very impressive. Hot, flavorful and delicious. The Naan bread was wonderful. Best yet was that we were introduced to a few new dishes, which is unusual for us. If you've never had Indian food, this is a great place to get an introduction as the food here is lightly spiced. There is a shaker of Cayenne pepper on the table, to kick it up, which is probably good for appealing to a wider customer group. We are die-hard Indian restaurant foodies, and stop at all Indian restaurants we've encountered throughout the U.S., and this was a shinning star! We're so happy that this location is a reasonable 30-min drive from our house. read more

Terrible experience. Over priced, tasteless food. The place is filthy, my shoes were sticking to the floor. Cramped if two peopke are at buffet its crowded. Staff was rude. Dont waste your time or money....i would gove no stars but you have to give one. read more

While doing HORRIBLE at driving range, my bestie golf pal and I went to drown our sorrows in food...lol. Let's try Indian. She found this joint in Boardman, SO off we went. Nifty little, peaceful place. Relaxing. We both ordered the very generous house salad. My chickpal ordered the stuffed mild peppers loaded with cilantro. I loved them. She, not a cilantro fan. And, she also ordered the little veggie filled, like Indian perogies. Really good, lots of ginger. Two sauces to dip. One sweet one, she liked. Myself, not so much but DID like the hot/spicy one. YUM! I ordered a lamb dish called Saag Gosht, that was OUTSTANDING, 2 bites, SO GOOD! couldn't eat anymore - was full. (If I don't eat something that doesn't make my nose/eyes either run or bleed, I'm eating at the wrong joint) This place is on our weekly golf list! Will take pic next time. read more

Lunch Buffett is great. Highly recommended if you're looking for Indian flavor. I've never tried anything besides the buffet, but it has all the good stuff. read more

Cafe India - Chicken tiki Marsala and other stuff - Indian Near Me - Boardman, Ohio

Stopped for the lunch Buffett. Very reasonably priced at 8.99. The hostess was very welcoming. The offerings were typical Indian buffet- tikka, dal, saag, several vegetable dishes, another type of chicken, and the usual sides like naan, Raita, chutney, green salad, dessert, etc. I found the food to be hot, fresh, and well seasoned. So many Indian restaurants adapt to American tastes and aren't highly seasoned. The food here was very flavorful and you could taste fresh spices. Not too hot, if you're worried, just full of spicy flavor. Will definitely come back if in the area again! read more
