When I placed the order over the phone, I was told 25 minutes. My dad went to pick up the food and…read moreabout an hour and a half later it was ready. I ordered 5 tandoori leg quarts orders, butter naan, and 4 samosa chaat. I asked for no cilantro/parsely sprinkled on top: The tandoori leg quarts were BURNT!! They even had the burnt taste when eating. There was cilantro on top. The although the "naan" was really good, it didn't have butter on it, and it seemed like it was roti bought from the frozen section of a grocery store. The samosa chaat even had a little sprinkled on top. When I called them to tell them about the burnt chicken, the lady in the phone told me to come back and return the food and she can give me a refund. And I live about 30 minutes ago, I can't come back. And she began to say if you want a refund at a store you have to return the item. I began to say clearly you don't eat out at American restaurants because they would refund me right away and her response, this isn't an American restaurant this is a Pakistani restaurant. 5 minutes later, another man called. Saying the chef used a new masala and that's why it was the way it was. He than offered a 50% refund. I said sure that's fine. A few min later I got a receipt that refunded only 4 out of the 5 tandoori chicken (not even a 50% refund) I'm just highly disappointed because I had heard good things about this place and than to get food/service like this?

I ordered a chicken dish, samosa, and a strawberry tea. It was prepared timely. The chicken was good. Definitely spicy, even with me selecting the lowest level. The samosas were good and drink was really flavorful. There were families and individuals there eating. It was a nice atmosphere that was welcoming. There is also a banquet area and grocery connected. I will be back to try other menu items.

Here's a polished version of your review:…read more We recently visited Utsav to celebrate a friend's 40th birthday and had a wonderful experience. We started with a few drinks, and our waiter recommended several dishes, including the Chicken Alpino, Gobi, Chicken Pakora, and Keema Biryani for the main course. We ended the meal with Sweet Paan. The Chicken Alpino was absolutely delicious it was juicy, tender, and full of flavor. Everyone at our table loved it so much that we ordered another serving. It's a unique dish that's definitely worth trying. The Keema Biryani was also excellent, and the Sweet Paan was the perfect way to finish the meal. The service was outstanding, and our waiter made great recommendations throughout the evening. We'll definitely be visiting again and highly recommend trying the Chicken Alpino!

Okay something is not right with this place. The reviews suggested something entirely different…read morethan what this disaster ended up being. We ordered pani puri, wada pav, dabeli and mango lassi. All of it SUCKED. The pani puri looked nothing like the photos from Google or Yelp, and lacked flavor as well as skimpy filling. The dabeli had NO pomegranate. I've never encountered a dabeli without pomegranate, neither did it have any flavor. Same story with the wada pav. Severely lacking garlicky goodness. The mango lassi was good, but cost a whopping $4 for a tiny 6oz serving. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw what a small cup it came in. The location of this place sucks, with every picnic table splintering and dirty, every table either had its own share of bugs (fire ants, flies, wasps, mosquitos) or was dirty, and add a serving of weed smoke from the nearby smoke shop. Service was also terrible. Their ordering system wasn't working, some of the things on their menu were not coming up on online ordering and the lady taking my order manually struggled with the system with the Square reader not working multiple times. They also don't accept cash so that's not an option either. We cane to this place with such high hopes and left disappointed.

I had never been before and the lady serving me didn't provide much insight into my options. I just went to the buffet and filled up my plate. Everything was flavorful, something's like the potato's were undercooked but overall I was happy with my food. I think it's getting more traffic due to chick fil a being under construction and Essex closing but once those two spots are open again (Essex is changing to Mariposa) there will be less foot traffic. I don't know if I'd go again. I can't say I'm an Indian food fan in general but this is just my opinion. If you're curious, definitely give it a try and see what you think.

As an Indian food lover I am super pumped that there is a new lunch spot Uptown. Even better that…read moreit is a buffet! They are located in the overpass mall, so it might be hard to find unless you are familiar with the vast network of sky bridges that connects all of the Charlotte banks. I recommend entering near the corner of Trade and Tryon! The food is phenomenal and they always make sure it is well stocked and fresh so feel free to load up your plate. Upon entering you will be greeted, and can let them know if you plan to eat in or dine out. If you are dining out they will fill up your water and show you to your table. Then feel free to hit the buffet. After you are done just head to the register and pay. It's quick and easy! I believe there is a slight up charge for a to go box but that is pretty standard for buffets. This may be my new favorite Indian lunch spot!
