I was also given a cup of chai tea and a couple samples while I waited for my food.

Not tooting my own horn, just saying I've been exposed to tons of food I wouldn't have otherwise. This place is phenomenal. Excellent service, kind folks, and just absolutely wonderful food. I've had probably half the menu, and it's all amazing. Can't recommend this place enough. The prices are also phenomenal. You can't go wrong! The prices are great for what you get. Portions are fantastic. All the curries are phenomenal. I recommend trying something aside from the typical tikka masala or butter chicken, if that's all you've had as far as curries go, unless you want to give them a try on a pizza. The Chicken Karahi is something to behold. The saag of any type are amazing. But what I can't get enough of is the Chicken Doner/Shawarma, it's like shawarma if shawarma was made with chicken tandoori. Fantastic. The lamb doner is wonderful too, after all it's the namesake! Their Naan bread is fantastic too. You really can't go wrong. This place even turned my 70 year old father, who's not super quick to try new things, into an Indian food fanatic! If I could give them 10 stars out of 5, I would in a heartbeat.

I moved to Indianapolis a couple of years ago and found Spicy Doner on DoorDash. I was very…read moresurprised by how amazing the food was and have ordered from them many times since my first order. It had been a while since I last ordered, and today I was craving chicken tikka masala. I placed my usual order, and saying I was disappointed would be an understatement. Look at the salad photo I attached and compare it to the photo on the menu. They are not even close to being the same, and what I received was quite disgusting. The plain naan bread was unusually greasy. After being disappointed by the salad and bread, I do not know why I was surprised when the main dish was lacking as well and tasted nothing like my previous orders. DoorDash still lists the restaurant as Spicy Doner, but Yelp now shows the restaurant name as Punjabi. I can only assume the restaurant is under new management due to the name change and the dramatic decline in quality. Hopefully, I can find an alternative restaurant soon because I will not be ordering from here again.

The name sounded interesting so my husband and I decided to check it out. I had a feeling it was…read moreIndian and Mexican food, sure enough that's it. I really wanted to try something mixed, but the worker said it was mostly either or. I really thought there would be more fusion options, but on the menu - the left side was Indian dishes and the right side was Mexican dishes. We did order a chicken tikka taco (sort of Indian/mexican infused) and then decided on butter chicken in medium. For the taco, you can get corn or flour tortilla and we forgot to specify, but thankfully it came out on corn. The butter chicken came with rice and naan (I forgot to ask if I could make it garlic naan) so it comes with regular. For a drink, I got the mango lassi which is like a mango smoothie with yogurt and milk, and he got a mango jarrrito. Our meal came up to about $30, and we decided to dine in. I got my mango lassi very quickly, it was really smooth and creamy texture, very milky mango tasting. I liked it, but my husband didn't care for it. The jarrito has a bottle cap, and on the wall, there is a bottle opener. I didn't even notice it but my husband did, it's unique and convenient. It took about 15ish mins or so to get our food, we like that it's made fresh and was brought to our table. He gave us extra plates as we were sharing our order. The tikka taco was bland, didn't really have much flavor. He gave us two sauces, one green and one red (he said the red is spicy) and even with that it was just ok. It was however very filled. The regular naan was good, especially when I dipped it in the butter chicken sauce. As for the butter chicken, it was decent. We got it in medium spice and it wasn't very spicy to me. The rice paired well with the butter chicken. The food was enough for both of us to share and be full, plus we had leftovers. The inside was quiet, it wasn't busy when we came. They have tables and booths for dining in. They also offer drive thru service. The inside appeared clean. They have 2 restrooms towards the back of the restaurant, one for men and one for women. The women's restroom didn't have any toilet paper.

Then once restrictions eased in 2021 I tried to return and call in an order for my usual saves - Dosa and Chole + Bhature. The guy on the phone is like "we don't sell that". Wait huh?? "We don't sell South Indian food." He was super rude, and wrong as hell. All I can assume is a different family bought it but didn't change the name of the store. So yeah, with the whole no mask, no South Indian food, forget this place.

We went on a Friday night and I was super excited to try the buffet that I had heard so much about. Wonk, wonk no more buffet. I was super disappointed that I couldn't try lots of the delicious offerings. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and DH got the Sheekh kabob. The tikka was flavorful but the spices made my lips numb. A smidge hit. DH liked the kabob and the vegetables it came with had a nice acidic flavor and loved mopping the juice/sauce up with naan. They don't have a fountain for drinks and we didn't get ice for the drinks. Service was a little slow too. It's clean inside.
