They now have a buffet, as of July 1, 2024. Today they sent out a special 50% off coupon on Facebook ---and I decided to give them another chance, and I was very satisfied with the Lunch Buffet. All of the dishes that I sampled were excellent, including the goat curry! read more

Very tasty dishes I hadn't had one before in any other Indian restaurant. Not sure what it was called but it was a light gravy with balls of some kind super good. We ordered five or six different things and they were all tasty. read more

This is a nice spot for a quiet, special kind of dinner. The service was attentive and the food was great. We were impressed by the generous portions too! A great addition to the Auburn food scene. read more

The food was good but they had different menus with different prices so instead of paying $18 for six pieces of chicken I paid $20 and once I showed him that the menu was different. He just said oh the price went up they must not know and he didn't refund my two dollars. Also, if you get food to go you get less than if you eat it in so sit a minute, get your food and then get containers. I will double check everything here from now on. read more

I absolutely love this place. !! The Buffett at lunchtime is awesome. Their food is always so fresh and hot and delicious. Even my boys love it. read more

The food here is good. But don't try to order online for pick up. They love to ignore the notifications they get so you'll get there, tell them you have an order and they won't even know about it. The customer service is lackluster... Not so much as an apology for the wait. At least it only took about 15 minutes to get the food out to us. But we could have been home in that time. If you're going to eat here, eat inside. This review would be 1-star if the food wasn't good but is, so they have that going for them. read more

This is our fourth time at this wonderful place. The food is delicious if a bit pricey. We ordered two dishes that came with rice, two orders of garlic naan and a glass of wine. Our lunch (not including tip) was $56 and change. We did have enough leftovers for a second (large!) meal though. It was very good and the service was just exceptional. I would say it was well worth the price. The restaurant is nice inside and not overly loud. I completely enjoyed my meal. I would absolutley recommend this place for anyone who appreciates good Indian food and excellent servicesl. read more

The food is sooo good at this place. The guys running it are super nice and polite. It's decorated really good and is very clean. It's a little pricey but well worth it. I go at least once a week. I'm addicted!! The Butter Chicken is my favorite read more

What a surprise. We stopped here because we needed dinner for later. I wasn't expecting anything other than the usual. This place was definitely above the usual. The coconut curry and butter chicken were soooo good. The spice level was on point for what we asked. The chicken was so moist. We also had aloo mattar, which was packed with veggies (lots of veggie options on the menu). Everything tasted so healthy. I cannot wait to go back. read more

First time to eat here and the food did not disappoint. The menu has quite a variety to pick from and is very descriptive. Everything on the menu sounds delicious. The presentation of each dish looks very appetizing. The service is friendly; attentive and very good. This place is beautifully decorated and clean. I highly recommend this place if you like or would like to try Indian food. read more

So good! The service was really nice and the food was really good, we got the lamb curry the spicy one it was so flavorful and had a kick. I got the yellow daal, it was served hot and was really yummy. I got it to go so I don't have any pictures, but the inside of the restaurant was classy read more

Good food, fast, courteous service. Very clean and nicely appointed inside. We had Takeout the other day and it was well packed. Mild spice is just right for folks not used to more. There is plenty of flavor, you can find the nice spice chunks in every dish! read more

Excellent food & great service!!! Glad you've come to Auburn! I need to try allll the things, we will definitely be back!!!

Absolutely love this place. Quality food and a great atmosphere. Fresh, clean and inviting with great staff. No matter how many times I eat here, the quality is perfect. Never had a bad experience or even a bad dish. Thanks guys! Appreciate the great Indian food. read more

High quality Indian food served in pleasant surroundings. Good size portions, good service.

This review is for the food, not for the service since I didn't dine in. We had the butter chicken, basmati rice and garlic naan. It was delicious!!!! I know prices are somewhat steep but as is with everything these days... could have shared an order between the two of us but glad we have leftovers and plenty of sauce to go with the extra naan I bought lol read more

Outstanding food and service! This place has some of the best Indian food have eaten. Had the veggie samosas-they were outstanding, flavorful and not any trace of grease. They were fried but not oily. Dipping sauces were amazing-my favorite was the mint... lamb curry entree and I had it spicy-a good kick of heat but not overpowering at all! Service was attentive and kind. Will definitely go back! read more

Indian oven cooks the best Indian food I've ever tasted. I have gone there five times now and always try something new. Everything that I've tried so far has been delicious. Their dishes are amazing. I usually don't leave reviews, but this place was so good I had to. read more

Got to the restaurant in Auburn with 20 minutes before closing of buffet lunch. Staff was very courteous and prompt service. Typical Indian restaurant ambience. Staff made sure we got what we wanted before they close down the buffet tables. Very nice of them! Food was excellent, even at the end of the buffet time. I highly recommend this place! read more

Our first time here and it was awesome! Beautifully decorated with extremely attentive staff. The food was delicious. Our new home for Indian food. read more

India Oven is mostly solid. My wife and I order to go from here often. Chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, shahi paneer and garlic naan are usually fire. Last time the chicken tikka masala was extremely bland and we generally don't care for the samosas. Folks at the front are always pleasant to interact with. I can't speak much to the service as we haven't dined in. Little restaurant is pleasant inside and always smells amazing. read more

Lovely new Indian place. Polite service, though my first time here they said the Aloo Tiki Chaat (potato patties) couldn't be made without yogurt. The second time they did and it was great. The channa masala (garbanzo beans in sauce) and ghobi Manchurian (cauliflower in a rock sauce) were great. Would recommend. Good ambiance for a date. read more

I wanted to have lunch there since my husband doesn't care for Indian food so I went with a friend instead. I had the Baingan Bharta with Basmati rice and my friend had the lamb with coconut curry. We both got a medium spice level. The food was excellent, and I'll be returning to try something else that I'm not familiar with. Since we were only 1 of 3 tables, service was excellent and the waiter very helpful and answered all of our questions. The ambiance, is quite lovely. Very comfortable and elegant. I look forward to a return visit. read more

We've been to the Indian Oven a few times now, and their curries are flat out the best in California! The staff are friendly and engaging without being intrusive, the ambiance is good. It's a must. It also rapidly becomes a regular outing! read more

I read the reviews had just had to try it out, also it rated 100 out 100 in food safety with no violations. The restaurant was beautiful and classy. My husband made a comment that this restaurant very impressive and he felt we where not in Auburn. The General Manager was very polite and attentive as was our waiter. The restaurant was very quite we ate around 8 pm, but take out orders where steady going out the door. The food and presentation was excellent. We will certainly return soon. read more

The food is very good. I am a food snob, so for me to say it's good, It really is. My only gripe is I wish there were 1/2 portion sizes for 1/2 the price. We like to try a variety of dishes when we go out to Indian cuisine. We had so much food left over, that it gave us an additional few nights of dinners. I felt like the prices are based on the large portion sizes which may be good for larger groups, but for a couple it was an over whelming amount of food. Smaller portions for a less price would make me come back 100% at least 1-2 times a week for dinner. But at those prices I may come back once every 3-4 months. Definitely great place to take a large group. Their food is better than the nearby competition. read more

Good food. Good Naan. Pretty solid Indian food fix. A little higher prices, but what isn't these days.

My husband and I love Indian food so we tried this for the first time night before last. The decor was beautiful. It was clean and the service was perfect! We saw 3 different people come to check on us and how was the food and did we need anything else. We ordered coconut curry chicken... let me tell you probably one of the best things I've ever eaten...top 10...so delicious! Served with basmati rice and we ordered the butter naan and the garlic naan. There was enough left over to have a 2nd meal the next night. We can't wait to go back and try new things. Found a new favorite place for sure!! read more

We were stuck on I-80 and were looking for a place to eat. We were very happy to discover this Indian restaurant. They have great food, great ambience and courteous staff. If you are vegan, try their bhindi masala and chhole with whole wheat roti. Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

I've not had in house service at India Oven but have ordered from them several times on DoorDash. The food is excellent and the portions are generous. My fave is the CTM with rice. Mmm... think I'll head there tonight. read more

Excellent Indian food! The best in our area, for sure. Beautiful restaurant and very attentive servers who will kindly tell you about ingredients we may not be familiar with. I had the Indian Oven Special Creamed Chicken with basmati rice and Garlic Nan bread. Scrumptious! I can't wait to go back and bring friends. read more

Food was amazing! After we ordered it was quickly brought out to us and very hot. No complaints!

Food was delicious nice temperature inside and really nice staff. Definitely try them!

Excellent food, service and ambiance. Thank you, we now have another restaurant to go to in the area.

Tried this place for the first time last night. Ordered to go biriyani, veggie korma, chicken vindaloo and Baingan Bharta. It was very expensive for the amount of food, almost $20 per item. The veggie korma unfortunately was flavorless and watery. The biryani was full of a variety of veg and had good flavor, but we were picking bits of spices out of the food left and right, like whole cloves. The vindaloo was very rich (probably the best dish we got) and the bharta was fine but it was almost a puree. Royal Indian will not be losing a customer! read more
