    Chicken Tikka Marsala (takeout)
    Kelly M.

    Ordering online was easy. The staff made pickup simple. It was only $0.99 extra to make a dish dairy free which is nice for our son with a dairy allergy. The dish was clearly marked "dairy free" on the outside which I appreciated. The chicken tikka was flavorful and filling. This dish is my comfort food!

    Disappointing - food all tasted the same. Food coloring was in everything, lassi and all entrees. Naan was good! Service was fine.

    I was completely blown away by this place. The service was impeccable. And the food was amazing. I ordered the chicken madras curry medium, and it was the perfect amount of spice with sooo much flavor. The garlic naan was hot and the perfect combination of crunchy and chewy. I was not expecting this from a small restaurant with "express" in the name, but it is definitely worth a try if you love Indian food.

    We have picked up India express for our family twice this year. We are impressed by their ability to have food ready for pick up orders on time and they have not made a mistake on any of our orders! We appreciate the full suite of mods that can be made on the online ordering platform, including making various dishes dairy free (which is so, so nice given we have a child who is allergic to dairy!). The flavors hit the spot, but one recommendation I would say is to clarify that peas come in the Saffron/Yellow Rice.

    Honestly quite impressed with this place!! we stopped in on Diwali, and the restaurant was SO kind as to give us free papad, chai, and free dessert. It was nice coming from somewhere else and still having some place to celebrate Diwali. Really happy about that! He also was very kind enough to ask us exactly what our spice level was, whether we wanted spicy or Indian spicy. It was refreshing and even though we said just normal spicy the food came out extremely spicy for us still! We got the gobi manchurian, paneer tikka masala, garlic naan, and rice! The garlic naan was delicious, on the thinner side but well flavored with big portions. The paneer tikka masala was also delicious, well flavored and wasn't lacking anything. The gobi manchurian was just okay, I felt it tasted quite oily with too thick of a batter so the cauliflower was lacking. Additionally the sauce felt very dry and caked making it dry rather than being moist. Overall I'm really happy I found this place, the ambiance is relaxing with Indian music playing in the background. it's causal yet you can still come with a family for a sit down dinner. I would definitely come back here if I was craving Indian food and I'm happy to have this restaurant in the neighborhood!

    I thought it was about time for an updated review... 10 years later. Still to this day, after all this time, this is my favorite spot for chicken tikka masala. After I tried to find my favorite tikka masala, in 8 different countries, this is still my favorite. I am not aware of the buffet anymore but I will add the lunch chicken tikka masala stuffed me full. It is possible to share an order if you are able to be selfless with your masala. I am selfishly in love with this dish, so I don't often share. Stop driving by and stop wondering, go and see for yourself! Yums!

    Garlic cheese naan
    Daisy D.

    I've been looking for an Indian food restaurant in my neighborhood and I think I found the winner here. First off, as soon as I walked in through the door, I was greeted so kindly and that was consistent throughout my entire time here. The server brought us chai and was very knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations. Both the chicken korma and the chicken tikka masala were creamy and flavorful. The chicken was tender. I can't wait to come back and try out some other items off their extensive menu!

    BUTTER CHICKEN
    Sara R.

    The best Indian food I've had in colorado so far. Delicious butter chicken, dal soup, and saag paneer. Flavorful, warm, complex. Nice service, and I enjoyed the bowls the food was platted in. It wasn't fancy by any means, but a great quick easy meal. Probably wonderful for takeout. Great garlic naan too!

    I feel like I've driven by this restaurant so many times and have just never tried it. The service was absolutely wonderful - everyone was so friendly and attentive. The food arrived quickly which was nice, as we had limited time during our lunch break. We ordered a couple of dishes and although all of them were delicious, the chow chow noodles were probably the best. We'll definitely be back and we're looking forward to trying different things!

    Tikka masala paneer
    Deborah M.

    Stopped in here for. Quick lunch and food was delicious! Service was fast and friendly, they even brought me a complimentary chai! Ambiance was super chill.

    Butter Chicken and Bullet Naan - amazing!!
    Airplane G.

    Wonderfully inviting interior. We visited on a chilly bluster Saturday afternoon and were the only customers. Service was very attentive. We ordered Butter Chicken, Bullet Naan, Chicken Tiki Masala, and Butter Naan. Both Naan versions were wonderfully! I got the Butter Chicken in medium spice and it was just enough to get my nose running a bit. And the Tiki Masala in mild was heavenly!

Absolutely worth the hype. We also ordered the birria short rib and hickory smoked picanha, and both were solid choices. The shrimp and corn grits were amazing, and I really loved the aged cheddar mac and cheese. Other dishes like the chickpea croquettes and the chili relleno were also pretty good and rounded out the meal nicely. The wait staff was fantastic. Super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The restaurant itself has a cool, lively vibe. The only minor downside was that the outdoor heaters were a bit too hot, but that's a very small nitpick. Overall, an easy 5 out of 5 stars. Great food, great service, and a place I'd happily come back to.

    We have recently started buying the entrees. Wow! Can't say enough good things about them. My…read morefavorite is the Classic Meatloaf. 2nd is a variety of Italian dishes; pizza, calzone, & baked ziti (combo cream and tomato sauce) with sausage. I love basically anything with their marinara sauce in it. The flavor is fantastic! 3rd is probably the bagels with the Everything bagel and the 3 Cheese bagels being my top two. Although the Jalapeño and Cheese bagel is up there if I could tolerate the spice. After that I love the Orange Chicken. It is breaded chicken with great orange sauce that I add stir fry veggies to. Sweet and Sour Chicken is good also. Can't forget to mention the delicious enchiladas which I eat with a salad to make more of a taco salad. For most things we add our own veggies to make a complete meal. The cooking instructions have been good except we've had trouble getting the pizza crust to cook through. What seems to work after much trial and error is 20 min. at 425 in our oven style airfryer on the metal pan. Pizza should look fully cooked and cheese browning in the center. Remove, add our own toppings and then 10 more min. at 425. The second bake could probably be longer so I will try that next time. Pic attached of the end result pizza. While the very outside of the crust gets a little charred the bottom is fine and this second bake seems to help get the crust cooked. Did a calzone this morning and since it is prebaked the heating instructions worked just fine. It was deliciously crisp and could be eaten as a finger food. We also liked the spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread but the garlic bread isn't wrapped well in the foil so was soggy. The apple bacon french toast was fantastic but I would prefer no bacon on it. The bacon is thick cut so just ends up being soggy. Apple topped french toast alone would be A+. In terms of other sweets I can't have Xanthan Gum so am limited to their donuts and danishes. The filled donuts are excellent but the regular, while not being cake style (which is a plus) have a taste to the grease that I don't care for. The filled are fried the same but because of the delicious filling you don't taste the grease. The danishes are a favorite but they all come with cheese filling in addition to the fruit so make sure you choose a fruit that goes with their cheesecake like cheese filling. I had gotten tired of eating my own food and am so happy that I have Blue Hummingbird's entrees to fall back on.

    I love Esters.

Their salads are also always so good. The produce is super fresh and their combos are usually surprising.

The Oneida park spot is really cute. I love the interior and they have a great covered patio for more all-weather seating. Parking is always fairly easy as you can park in the nearby neighborhoods if needed.

    We stopped by Esters Oneida Park on a Friday evening around 6 p.m., and the place was pretty busy…read more There was about a 20-minute wait, but it went by quickly since we were able to grab drinks at the bar and hang out outside while waiting for our table. The whole atmosphere here is very family-friendly. There's a large open outdoor area where kids were running around and playing, and being right next to a soft serve spot makes it even better for families. Inside, it had a great sports bar vibe without feeling overwhelming. They had all the NBA and NHL playoff games on, and I could easily see myself coming back here to catch a game and grab food with friends. The beer selection was also solid, with a nice variety of local breweries and ciders. For food, we started with the roni rolls, which were really good. The portion isn't huge, but it's perfect for sharing between 2-4 people. The menu mentions allowing extra time for them to come out, but ours arrived surprisingly quickly. We also split a half Caesar salad, which was pretty standard but worked well as a lighter course between appetizers and pizza. The highlight was definitely the Catapult pizza -- really flavorful and absolutely worth ordering. Would definitely recommend the pizzas here overall. For dessert, we went with the brownie skillet sundae based on our waiter's recommendation. It's basically like a smaller brownie version of a pizookie. The edges were a little overdone from the hot skillet, but overall it was still really good. If you're a brownie fan or just have a sweet tooth, it's definitely worth trying. Great energy, great setup for families and sports fans alike, and a place I'd happily come back to.
