    Just saw Chef Ravi welcoming people with his brilliant smile and Namaste. The Lota AYCE buffet looks great too!

    Absolutely amazing food! With dishes I have not seen anywhere else. I will definitely be returning!…read moreThe goat shorma soup was delicious and the goat was bone in and the tenderest I have ever had. The Mutton Ra Ta Pulav was also delicious, and surprisingly it was boneless. This definitely a dish I would try again and I really enjoyed the sauce on the side it was served with. The street noodles were also really tasty, and the slightly sweet spicy sauce they served on the side was definitely a plus. It also tasted homemade, it didn't taste like any other similar jarred sweet chili sauce I've ever had. I was really impressed with the beer, and it says that it's specifically brewed to pair with spicy food. I got all Of my dishes 4/5 on the spice level. I also want to note that the majority of customers were Indian which tells you alot about how good the food is. I was actually shocked to learn that this restaurant is actually a small chain out of Texas, because it tastes like it's family owned!

    Great Indian food! Stopped here for lunch and had never been before. Service was fast and friendly…read moreand ordering was easy. The food was very good but the spice levels were a little off. We ordered a chicken biryani at 2/5 that was a perfect spicy but my lamb tikka masala was very mild (ordered a 4/5). My only other complaint is the chicken which seemed to be chicken breast instead of thighs. While it was still good, using thighs would have been much more tender. Overall great place, average dish is $15-17 and enough for 1 adult. I'll be back to try some more dishes!

Little spinach cakes were good. The sweet super hot sauce was wonderful. Not wild about the shrimp wrap, which was just too huge for me to eat ever in multiple meals. Really great delivery experience.

The menu has been streamlined, parking is plentiful, and the exterior has been freshly painted white, giving the place a clean, updated look before you even walk in. Inside, the space has been beautifully remodeled. It's bright, white, modern, and spotless, with tasteful accents that make it feel welcoming without being overdone. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the visit. I missed their weekend buffet (which I'd love to try next time), but ordered the tandoori chicken with a side of garlic naan. The tandoori chicken was outstanding--deep, authentic flavor with just the right amount of spice. Enough heat to lightly tingle your lips, but not overpowering or lingering. Easily one of the most flavorful tandoori chickens I've ever had. The garlic naan was absolute perfection. If I lived closer, this would be a regular stop, especially to catch the buffet on a weekend. Highly recommended--definitely worth checking out.

    Falafel King is a small restaurant attached to a gas station at the corner of Harden Street and…read moreGervais Street in Columbia SC. It's been here for a few years but I'm not a regular customer. I ordered the King Special pizza and King side salad. The salad was very fresh and flavorful with a nice crunch to it. The pizza was one of the best I've ever had in my 58 years. And the service was very friendly, the restaurant clean and bright. I highly recommend you try it out. I was the only customer here throughout my entire meal from ordering, to eating, to posting this. All during lunchtime on a Monday. So this small business needs a resurgence of customers.

I have to admit, I was a little skeptical when I first pulled up because it appeared to be inside a gas station. Thankfully, I quickly realized they were separate businesses, and the clean environment immediately put my mind at ease. The falafel wrap was exactly what I was looking for fresh, flavorful, and made to order. The falafel was seasoned well with a nice texture. I would have preferred more topping options but the tzatziki sauce complemented it beautifully and the chickpea salad was a great side. It was definitely worth the stop, and I'll be back the next time I'm in town.
