    Paneer Butter Masala
    Wafa I.

    If you know good Indian food, then you know that this is the best place locally, if not the best Indian food I've ever had and that's saying a lot coming from me. If you don't know good Indian food, then you're about to learn today. I am so happy we found this place. We love our meals every single time. Try their butter chicken, obviously. And give the samosas a try too. My husband loves their naan as well. The guys here are very friendly and always make you feel welcome. It's takeout only right now but don't worry, it tastes just as good at home. I cannot recommend this place enough!

    Malai Kofta (vegetarian dumplings in a mild cashew sauce), Plain Naan
    Surelyne L.

    This is an unassuming place in a nondescript strip mall but appearances definitely are deceiving. It's not fancy but the food is delicious, service was attentive and portions are generous. We ordered malai kofta , paneer mutter & bagara bainghan along with plain naan. Everything was well spiced and very flavorful. We ordered everything mild but the bainghan definitely had some heat to it. We had enough leftovers for another meal! This is a hidden gem!

    Service was exceptional! Food was really fresh I'll definitely be retuning to try more of the menu

    I did take out from them via uber eats and it was DELICIOUS. I have not eaten here before and wanted to try something different. It did NOT disappoint. My fiancé and I split an order of butter chicken, aloo gobi masala, and the cheese stuffed naan. There was enough for us both to have lunch the following day! It was also incredibly reasonably priced for the quality of the food! I can't wait to be able to go here and check out the inside!

    Goat/lamb Korma
    Kay M.

    Great find! We stumbled upon this spot almost by accident while looking for a place to eat last night. When you open the door, it smells so good! It's a small place, but the staff is so very polite and attentive. I had goat/lamb korma, and our table shared garlic naan. Food was tasty and fresh, generously portioned and the spice level was great; the meat especially was tender. We'll be back to try their biryani!

    Goat Biryani, Chicken 65, Butter Chicken, and Garlic Naan
    Shadi S.

    We have had Biryani Xprx a few times now and have really enjoyed it. The items we liked the most there have been their Goat and Chicken Biryani dishes and the Chicken 65 with garlic naan. Very flavorful and tastes fresh. The kids enjoy the butter chicken which we order mild for them. We have only done carry out here and everyone working has been extremely nice and accommodating to us . Would definitely recommend if you are craving some Indian food!

    Navaratan Korma and Chicken Curry (Boneless)
    Dahlia W.

    My boyfriend and I LOVE this place! We have been here 3-4 times and we can't get enough of it. I'm 7 months pregnant so I can't have super spicy food and they always accommodate my needs. Today one of the guys suggested I try the Navaratan Korma and it was perfect! Creamy and the vegetables were great. The portions are great and the garlic naan has been good every time we've been here. I truly don't have one complaint about this restaurant or the staff.

    Skimp buttered chicken portion
    Rex B.

    I ordered buttered chicken at $11.99. It contained 9 little pieces of chicken. For that price, I expect more chicken. Plus, the nana at an additional $1.99 was not done, quite doughy. After taking a few bites, I hit raw meat. You should never receive raw chicken.

    Trying take out.

    I've never had a bad experience in this part of Cary and their 'ethnic' restaurants. Biryani has a very large dining room, but we got takeout. While we waited, had a great chat with a truck driver that comes in every week for his 'fix.' He recommend a couple of dishes, and they did NOT disappoint. Don't judge this book by its cover.

    We were in the area, and wanted Buffet style meal. Close by is Dhanarani Express. The interior is…read morecomfy, and there is plenty of seating. It' directly parallel to the Direct Auto Insurance if you don't see it right away pulling in. They offer take out and a full menu other than their buffet. I love Indian food so I said yes. Got here first thing at 11:30 and were immediately let in and led to our table. Our server told us to give them ten minutes to have the full buffet up. We patiently waited, and it was WORTH the wait. Everything you see on my plate was delicious, flavorful, and a tad spicy. To be expected though. They get great reviews for a reason.

    The server for buffet over the weekend brought me a placemat that was dirty from plates collected…read morefrom a previous patron's table. I set that aside and tried to avoid the moisture on the napkin my silverware was wrapped in. When I went to get food, most of it was covered which I guess is good, but to get to the food, it was awkward balancing the covers or having to place them on another covered tray to be able to serve myself. When I compare the food and environment here to other places that offer Indian cuisine buffets, for the $20 with tax I'd rather go to Kabab and Curry not too far from here on Hillsborough St. There is more food available, it is fresher, the environment overall seems more hygienic and well-organized, and the food has better flavor and seems less greasy at Kabab and Curry. The only difference is having to pay for parking or parking a bit further away for a free spot--but for what you pay at Curry Club and they only offer buffet over the weekend, Kabab and Curry is better and offers more value and is where I will probably go from now on. The only way Curry Club's buffet would make sense is if they brought the price down. I'd put their food quality about on par with China Queen's weekday Chinese buffet, but China Queen has the better sense to charge less for the quality and experience they offer their customers. If you're already in the plaza and it's convenient to drop in over the weekend, give Curry Club a try, but if you can make it a little further north, Kabab and Curry is the better place. It is worth noting that Curry Club has interesting theme days and specials that may offer more value and culinary enjoyment than what I was able to experience while I was there including weekend breakfast combos, and weeknight dosa, biryani, and rice deals. They also have momos and spring rolls that look delicious (though I can't vouch yet). They stock authentic items like frozen Shahi Kulfi (not included in the buffet), and beverages like Delhi Darling, Thumsup, and Limca. If I go back, it'll be to sample dosas at Dosa Night or see what I think about the momos and spring rolls. I'll update when and if I find out and get to sample more.

    Beware of the high yelp rating!…read more We were starving and excited to try this place after a couple hour hike at Umstead yesterday. We LOVE northern Indian and Nepalese food and were lured by the high yelp rating. I'll start with the good. The server was kind and efficient. The chili chicken momo were delicious. The rice and garlic naan were average to good as well. However, our butter chicken and our chicken korma tasted like nothing. It was very strange. There was texture and you could kind of taste the chicken itself but the sauces tasted like nothing. You could almost only tell the two apart based on color and texture. We ordered one of them medium spice and one mild. Even the medium spiced dish had zero flavor. I kind of thought to myself that something was off when the colors looked bright but we couldn't taste a thing. I kept thinking maybe the flavor or heat will build. It never did. Nevertheless we ate everything bc we were starving, but we were definitely disappointed in the lack of flavor. Not long after we left, our stomachs were kind of on edge but we figured this was simply from eating too much. This morning we both woke up ILL. Even though we discussed coming back for the chili momo only in the future, we have since changed our tune. I love locally-owned businesses and hate to leave a bad review but we truly did not have a 4+ star experience here. We won't be back.

The website is easy to navigate and place takeout orders. The menu items are described well and are accompanied by beautiful pictures. We appreciated the February coupon code that popped up when viewing the online menu. We also received complimentary gulab jamun which was very generous of them. Everest is located in a shopping center off Maynard and Harrison with ample parking. Our order was ready upon arrival and accurate. We ordered tandoori mixed grill, chicken coconut madras, tadka dal, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, and pulao rice.
