    Rice
    Dakota M.

    Best Indian food I've had so far. Excellent veggie samosas, garlic naan, and butter chicken. The servings are actually a decent amount, and the butter chicken comes with a side of rice! Very very good.

    I've been here about 4-5x now for dinner as well as lunch buffet. Each time we've had great service, delicious food & a lovely experience overall. I can't believe I forgot to review in the past as we'd been before they renovated as well. Just wish it was closer so we could dine here more often. Staff is always attentive & friendly.

    Parm was such a sweetheart! As soon as I walked in, it was hit with a wonderful aroma, I'm not even a huge eater of Indian food, but I was excited to try the lunch buffet. It did not disappoint. The buffet had shredded lettuce and when I let Parm know I don't love shredded lettuce. he brought me regular lettuce from the kitchen. I love tasting all the different flavors, and definitely overloaded my plate so I could get a few bites of everything. The complementary flavored naan options were amazing! The lamb stew was incredible! Truly everything was great! This belly ache is so worth it!

    Saturday Lunch Buffet
    Shannon L.

    I came Wednesday night and asked did they have buffet. Tempe is my home city and their food restaurants are amazing. Various ethnic groups in Tempe provide a foodies dream. Tempe housed my go to Indian buffet on Rural and university for over 20 years and it closed. The other night picking up a marketplace find I passed this restaurant. I live in central Phoenix and pulled up my favorite app on the way home Yelp popped the restaurant in the app great reviews. Long work day Wednesday so stopped for dinner mind blown. Yup I'll be back for lunch. Saturday head for Lunch buffet the place is packed and the food was amazing. Nothing from the buffet was bad. Again if you see the ethnic culture eating there usually a good sign your taste buds are about to get very happy with your choice. My new Indian food spot & yes I drive 20 minutes to get here. Fluffy Grandma Recommends. Get the mango drink it tastes like a liquid creamsicle it's addictive.

    butter chicken

    Love the authentic and rich Indian food here every time. They give you just the right portion and can even be shared if you're feeling up for it. 10/10 place to come visit or order takeout from.

    Chicken Tikka

    The owner, refused to accept that the chicken was pinkish in color. Instead of apologizing and offering to remake it or make it right somehow like other restaurants/ cuisines in the country, he said there was nothing he could do and said it would be nearly impossible since they "double" cook their meat. I'm sorry, but mistakes do happen. Not the service he provided or the chicken coming out the way it did was right. Giving this place two stars since the rice was fine and the flavor or the sauce was good. Hopefully he is receptive of any issues in the future.

    Tried India's Flame in Tempe and it was amazing! Everything tasted super fresh and flavorful, not heavy or oily like some other places can be. The spice level was perfect--enough kick to bring out the flavor without being overpowering. You can tell they use quality ingredients. I just moved here and I was very worried I wouldnt find a quality indian food restaurant. It looks like they might offer a buffet, but I didnt get a chance to ask. I'll definitely be back soon!

When you walk in, the buffet is right there behind the front desk. Yes, it was mostly a chinese buffet but there's one item on the array of foods that I liked a lot. It was a bit too spicy for me and it was Cajun sauce with potatoes and I poured the sauce in a container and made my way and grabbed some snow crab legs and crawfish and made my own seafood boil lol Pros: They stack the crab legs and crawfish Although the Crawfish didn't have any flavor (I would suggest dumping it in the cajun sauce with potatoes) Cons: It was an hr drive to PHX and the traffic.. The parking situation: It was packed. Some people stood and secured their space.. which I think is unfair but do what you must. Just luckily we found parking in front of the entrance. Best to back up park, so you can easily get out of the complex

I forgot if the reservation was for 10AM or 10:30AM so I called to confirm. Another representative working today (Thursday) told me that they don't do reservations, it's first come, first served. I asked to speak to the person I spoke to on Tuesday who told me I had a reservation but they aren't there today. Real nice, Mission Grille... If you record your calls, I would recommend you go back and figure out who told me that I had a reservation and listen to the conversation because now it's three days before Mother's Day and I've lost the past two days to try to book someplace nice to take my mom and wife because I thought I had a reservation with you...

My party of 5 was sat in a higher vantage point area so we could really see the hustle and bustle of this place. They took our drinks down right away and we all walked off to grab our plates. I typically learn towards sushi at buffets so I grabbed a couple pieces of yellowtail rolls, cooked salmon and seafood casserole. All of it was super tasty and pretty fresh.

    SENTRY - WATCHING RESTAURANTS…read more Lin's Grand Buffet 3955 E. Baseline Road Phoenix, 85042+ Companion and I wanted to try a new Chinese buffet, and Lin's came to mind. We had heard both positives and negatives about it so it was about time to make up my own mind. We arrived at 5:00 and were seated immediately. The buffet looked interesting with about 6 rows of items to peruse. Companion went first and when he returned I got a plate and began my tour. First item on my plate was the seafood boil. Crawdads, shrimp, mussels, corn on cob, potatoes and lots of cajun spice. If it had been hotter it would have been wonderful. Next I started down a row of hotel pans, picking those items that seemed interesting to me. Shrimp in various incarnations, beef and broccoli, pork egg roll, potsticker, sticky pork rib, velveted pepper steak with onions, and a couple of pieces of sushi. The shrimp was nicely cooked and the pepper steak was tender and properly cooked. The sushi was unremarkable and the egg roll was soggy and without merit. The potsticker was nice as was a piece of fried banana. Sanitation in the food areas was excellent with counters being wiped down as needed. I also noted one of the chefs in the Mongolian BBQ area wiping down the tiles on the wall, which was quite impressive. However, not all was great. Food was tepid at best and while I did not have a thermometer with me my estimate was that none of the food was over 100 degrees. The restrooms were a different story. The ladies room was properly clean and appointed with nothing but a few drops of water on the floor by the sink. However, companion went into the men's room and took a picture for me. It could not pass any type of inspection by any person. Normally I would have handed my companion my ultra violet light which I use when checking bathrooms, but why waste the batteries? The place was filthy and the toilets were terrible. No use to stand upon the seat, the crabs in here can jump six feet! Companion remarked that it was disgusting and he forgoed using the facility. Our bill for 2 was $36.11, which is about what other buffet charge, however, I've eaten at much better buffets for this amount. 3 stars

The grilled section most of the meat is extremely tough or really chewy now , it's like the grade of meat has gone down and lacks flavor. The sushi area didn't have a variety like they use to and the front half was closed down. From the time we got there a little before 7:00 p.m. to when we left around 8:45, the crab legs were empty til about 8:30. So in the almost two hour time frame, the crab legs got restocked ONCE. Such a disappointment, esp since everyone rushed to grab some, so alot of people didn't get a chance to eat any. Luckily my son was able to get four clusters for the table to share. Our server wasn't attentive at all, had to ask him for napkins multiple times, ask for water refills , and no crab leg crackers or anything was given to us. Although I guess that last one didn't matter too much this time since there weren't really any crab legs that were offered. Our bill was around $76 for two adults two kids and this time definitely did not feel like it was worth it. Sucks to see with the beautiful remodel, the food quality and quantity has gone downhill.
