This place is a gem. While it's not too hard to find good Indian food in the area, what sets this place apart is the owner's genuine gift of hospitality. If you're like me and would pick a handmade piece of pottery over a mug from Target, this is probably a place you need to try at least once. This is a place where you can see the heart and warmth and personality of the people who run it, and that's so refreshing in a day and age where everything else seems to be a chain. (They also have really good food.) We've loved it for years and it never disappoints. We will continue to go back again and again! read more

Excellent food and even better service. The people here are a treasure. Been here multiple times and have had a consistently fantastic experience. read more

We haven't been here in a few years but we were there for lunch today and Mr Singh is still as personable and funny as ever. The food is still incredible. Onion naan and saag paneer and chicken tika masala along with basmati rice and too much to finish. No buffet but way better than the Indian buffets in the area. read more

This is IT!! Wow!! Reddit said this was the best Indian food in KC. We were NOT disappointed!!! The staff here is amazing! They are SO friendly and kind. They showered us with attention and little treats. My wife and I ordered the mint naan and she got the tandoori chicken which she enjoyed very much. I got the Chicken Goa Curry at the suggestion of the owner. She was very right. It was magnificent!! This is a small family place in OP. Everyone was working on this July evening: Mom, Dad, daughter, sons...so cool. My wife is normally very sensitive to spice. She ordered hers mild and even had a few bites of my medium dish. It didn't hurt her. The mango lassi was a nice touch. Rice pudding too. We can't wait to return! What a GEM this place is. Just GO!! read more

Used to be one of our favorite Indian restaurants in all of KC, but things have changed dramatically. Our group of 5 ordered a variety of popular dishes and appetizers and we were ALL rather shocked at the low quality ingredients and flavors. All our various entrees were chicken, and the meat was consistently dark and tough. The sauces tasted store-bought, and not even the 'good' ones. The naan was the best part of the dinner, which was really too bad. Should have known by the single table that was occupied when we arrived at what should have been peak dinner time. Korma Sutra that we've known and loved so long is no more... read more

This restaurant is a true dining experience. This was my first time trying Indian food, so although I cannot speak to the authenticity and quality of the food - I will share my opinions. First, the chai is delicious. It was warm and very tasty. Staff brought out a variety of appetizers which were all good and set the standard for the meal. I ordered the chicken tikka saag and enjoyed the meal. I enjoyed the desserts, a mango ice cream and sweet bread. After dinner, they assisted us with washing our hands at the table to clean off the spiciness from the meal. Two other words: apple juice. Service was attentive, fun, and personalized. It makes me want to go back! Parking lot. read more

Excellent service. Try the chai and the mango lassi. The mango chutney was fantastic. The Korma sutra special naan was very good.

Korma Sutra very unexpectedly became one of my very favorite Indian restaurants in KC. It's nestled in a little Lenexa strip mall and appears very unassuming. I'd heard great things but didn't get a chance to go until this past year. When you walk in it's not a whole lot to look at. Pretty standard fair. However, when you get seated that's when the party really starts! The ownership is very inviting and personable. They offer you fun treats throughout your meal at no cost (at least the time I went, but I've heard this wasn't an isolated experience) and the food itself is great. I got the fish tikka masala and it was amazing. The garlic naan is TO DIE FOR as well. I dare say this is my favorite Indian restaurant in KC! Excited to go back. read more

Korma Sutra continues to be a delicious restaurant. I highly recommend it as a way to try different food options if Indian food is new to you. The service is fantastic and they are very friendly. read more

Korma Sutra has likely been my most frequented restaurant of 2024! The staff are The Best. So welcoming and they love to share lil bites and sips of their favorite things throughout your meal. The naan, the curries and the chai tea keep me coming back! PS order extra so you have leftovers to take home. One of my KC go-to dinner spots! read more

We placed an online order, and we had to wait just a little bit for our order. While we waited we were served complementary chai, which was delicious. And some other small portions of items off their menu. The service was amazing and we were sent with chai to go. Food was fresh, and delicious!! Vibe was fantastic! We love korma read more

First of all the staff is incredibly kind, they were very attentive, and engaged and provided excellent table side service. They must have overheard me talking about how I was torn between Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken because we were brought a serving of Tikka Masala on the house. The food is also delicious, I ate far too much and had tons left over. It was quiet and everyone there seemed to be enjoying themselves and it was somewhere you could just go and relax and enjoy good food and good people. It honestly felt like being at a family dinner read more

My favorite Indian restaurant! The servers are always so happy and passionate about the food. You get more than just what you ordered- samples, desserts, tea and a handwashing at the end makes this restaurant really stand out and you start to feel like family. Always my go to for Indian food! read more

Korma Sutra - Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken, Garlic naan - Indian Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

Everything was fabulous!! The food, the service, all the extras they brought like chai tea, rice pudding, and ice cream. We are rolling out of here but we will be back! read more

Food and service was excellent. Portions a bit small for the price. I guess you come for the show from the owner. He gives you a lot of little treats and a small glass of Chai tea. Later he asks if you'd like more without telling you there's a charge. My butter chicken dish and naan was supposed to be $25. It jumped to $37. I confronted him and said why so much. He said for the Chai tea. He offered to take it off. But I already drank it. Just not coming back. Not a fan of deceptive marketing. read more

Incredible food, above and beyond service. Cannot say enough nice things, our daughter was so happy with the interactions with staff and treats. Will absolutely return! read more

What an awesome and friendly spot for some of the best Indian food I've had in Kansas City! My wife and I went here on a random night where we did not want to cook and were craving some good butter chicken and Korma Sutra did not disappoint! We really loved the Tandoori Chicken and Butter Chicken, But the hospitality is the one key thing to note, it's like you're getting welcomed into the family or seeing family after a long time! They served us mango lassi and the most amazing chai tea and rice pudding I've ever had that warmed my soul and let us wash our hands with limes and fresh warm water. It was amazing, and made me feel welcomed. We will most certainly be back! read more

Their food is always amazing! They always give plenty of food. Their food is savory and always made fresh. This is by far my favorite. They even made an extra effort to give my toddler samosas that we didn't order so she can try and the mango lassie. Very tasty! read more

Food is amazing. Service was quick and efficient. I went during the time is wasn't as busy so I was in and out. Very clean environment.

I dined alone during a business trip to the area. I was greeted as I entered and offered a seat near the window. The ambiance of the restaurant is light-hearted and all of the staff are working with a sense of urgency. It took a few minutes for anyone to greet me after I was seated, but when they did, they brought an attractive menu with a full selection of items. I chose the Korma Sutra Biryani with Naan bread and a Chai. The Chai came immediately along with a sample of Mango Chutney with Pompadam, which was a nice Starter. The Biryani was flavorful and had medium spice and it was enough for 3-4 people. She offered to bring me some Raitta, which I gladly accepted. An older man brought me a sample of the Chicken Tikka Marsala which had a very nice flavor and I would order it next time. At the end of my meal, she offered me a Mango Lasse, which was sweet, but not salty as I expected, so just a nice dessert drink. I enjoyed my solo dining experience and will return when I visit Kansas City again. read more

The service was absolutely exceptional. They tended to every detail, it felt like we were at a 5 star restaurant. The food was amazing too! Cannot recommend Korma Sutra enough. read more

Honestly, we eat here often. Live this place. The food is always amazing and you get a lot. The owner is always dancing around making people laugh. Sometimes they offer up extra dishes for you to try. I've waddled out more times than I want to admit. Order up a Mango Lasse. Dessert of loose rice milk/pudding and a frozen mango scewer are always included. Up end the meal with traditional hand wash and Chai. Pay attending to the time because they do close for a couple hours between lunch and dinner. read more

You can expect very good food at this Indian restaurant. The owner is delightful and entertaining. The menu selections are plentiful and the portions are enough to share. It appears to be a family run business, an extended family run business as the ages of the staff indicate three generations, and change periodically. They often bring free samples of various dishes for your group to try. If you leave hungry, it's not because they didn't try to feed you. read more

I had the makhani masala awhile back, the sauce was rich, however I felt the texture was a bit off and maybe not quite so flavorful. I also had the garlic naan which was not bad. I think maybe an off night for the kitchen though. I've heard such great things about Korma Sutra so I was surprised my experience did not align with others. The staff were friendly and gave us tea as we waited for our to go order. Inside is quiet and would make for a relaxing dinner out. I will definitely have to try it again soon. read more

Food is always excellent. Mr Singh is an experience you cannot miss. He is the happiest person in the restaurant business.. I have enjoyed every dish I have had there. Butter Chicken is my favorite. The garlic naan is a treat. read more

Amazing service, the owner is so nice! Amazingly good food! Would definitely recommend to a friend!

Awesome dining experience. The service is one of a kind - throughout our meal they brought different things to sample for free; from mango lassis, to chai tea, rice pudding, and more!! Everything was flavourful and delicious, and even medium spice level packed a punch. The meal concluded with an at table hand washing and even a lemony (I think vodka) shot lol. We left stuffed, with so many leftovers to enjoy at home. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! read more

As an Indian, I can assure you that Indian food does not taste as bad as the food they serve here. They don't even cook their food properly and seems like it is days old and was microwaved and served. The waiter also seems to have no manners or social skills. Very unprofessional. Gave me my dish without the sauce, and then when I was done eating gave me the sauce. The manager also was so obnoxiously loud and was wearing a balloon on his ear. What even is this place? read more

Great food and atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and food comes out exactly what you ordered. May not want to go at lunch when you have limited time to eat. Also, there is no longer a buffet. read more

Food was great however the up-charging was ridiculous. Our drinks were 3.99 - charged us more for them, uncharged the chai (that we weren't even going to order), and the servers were not very nice and a bit pushy. It was loud and not exactly the nicest ambiance. The guy that was goofy was nice though! read more

Great traditional Indian food. If you like spicy this is the place for you. The Chia tea was so light and delicious I would come just for that. Service was great when I had a problem with a dish the owner came and spoke with me and recommended dishes he likes for me to try. I had Goat and Lamb curry mild. I would definitely recommend either. read more

The food and service was top-tier! I ordered the chicken tikka saag and loved it. On top of our meal, they also brought us many other small dishes to eat. It is a little pricey (with the tikka saag and naan it was $27) so I wouldn't recommend going if you're wanting cheaper Indian food, but other than that everything was great. read more

Korma Sutra - Indian Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

The best Indian food in the city, and I don't just mean Lenexa. Absolutely delish! Make sure you have empty hands upon entering the restaurant to pick up carryout because while you wait you will be handed sample after sample. You will also likely walk away with a carryout drink in a styrofoam cup. I definitely prefer getting take away food to dining in. The vibe in the restaurant just isn't for me, but Korma has a nice dining room. This is my "go to" place when I want amazing curry! read more

They have gluten free naan. The food is so delish at this family restaurant. They took such good care of us. Everything was soooo good. I think it's the best Indian food in Kansas City. read more

This is one of my favorite places to go and get Indian food! The service is always excellent and super friendly. The food is always top notch delicious. My wife got our favorite meal, chicken goa curry. Really enjoy the spices with the sweet coconut sauce. Our kids got the butter chicken, which they snarfed right up! I had the chicken tikka masala which was excellent as always! Can't wait for our next stop in! read more

My wife and I just moved to the Lenexa area and were looking for a good Indian Restaurant. We found it at Korma Sutra. The food was excellent, and the service was fabulous. We were blessed with many free add-ons, like a separate side of Butter Chicken (no charge) so I could try it with some heat (my wife like it very mild), rice pudding, some kind of ice cream and they even had a hand washing at our table! The owner is very friendly and quite funny - you cannot help but leave the restaurant full and happy. We will be going back. read more

Great food. Amazing service. Good value. Wonderful experience and would come again. Got the vegetarian dinner for two and was pleased with the variety and portions. read more

Absolutely incredible! Best dining experience I've had in years. Personable staff, amazing food, wonderful service, light and inviting atmosphere. read more

Absolutely horrid takeout experience on multiple occasions. Currently writing this review as I wait in the restaurant. I was quoted 30 minutes for food, it's been 1 hour and still no food. I don't care how busy you are, to produce 3 items and a couple of Naans doesn't take that long. We have had this issue before(that's why we haven't come here in a while).. it's seems it hasn't gotten better. Ridiculous!! read more

We ordered the non-vegetarian dinner for two. It was wonderful and plenty of delicious food starting with crisps and curry,followed by soup and ground chicken stuffed pastry, then the delicious main dishes, one lamb dish and one chicken dish served with rice. In addition the hostess brought us two mango flavored yogurt drinks and rice pudding to cap off our meal. Wonderful! read more
