Delicious! All well-seasoned except the saag paneer was one of the less flavorful ones I have tried. Loved the garlic naan, chicken madras, pickle, raita, and rice. Will note that many of the items on the menu were not available. Would go again when in Anaheim!

Came here on a Sunday around 2pm for lunch. First thing I would like to preface is that the food tasted really good, packed with a lot of flavor. However, when we arrived, they still had their lunch buffet which isn't your typical buffet layout, just a long table with a few staple dishes. We're not sure if because we came a bit late? But the food at the buffet looked like it had been sitting out for a long time and wasn't refilled. When we went up to get food, a lot of the sustenance was pretty much gone, just sauce/curry at that point and had gone cold. The restaurant didn't have many customers so maybe that's why they didn't refill? We got Garlic Naan and it was pretty good, came out fresh and hot. We asked our server if the naan was unlimited and she said it was. However she didn't ask if we wanted a refill and we were left empty. We also ordered Mango Lassis but didn't receive any. I understand the mindset of "not good service means great food" however all I ask is for our order served She ended up checking up on other tables around us. Keep in mind, the restaurant had 3 parties including ours. Since we were disappointed, we left earlier than we anticipated. Probably were there for around 30 min. When we went to go pay the bill, I visibly saw our server eyed and gestured to the front staff to make sure we wouldn't dash (maybe I interpreted it wrong ‍) When I got my receipt, our Mango Lassis never got put in as an order. No wonder. For $22-23/per person for the "buffet" I'm disappointed. We do want to try going again but in the morning to see if it'll be better.

Chicken Tikka Masala and Rice
Howie C.

Tasty Indian food that's open late! I came late in the evening on Wednesday it was not busy inside. They have a big screen with Bollywood music videos playing and many tables. Chicken Tikka Masala - This was spicy and mildly creamy. I asked for medium spicy and it just had the lightest kick so it's very safe you want middling heat. If you want to feel something go with hot. The large bowl had sauce a plenty and large chunks of tender, juicy white meat. I thought it was just fine. Garlic Naan - I loved their garlic naan. It was a large piece, thin, crisp on the edges and slathered with a ton of garlic and butter. It was more on the medium to thinner side, which I like better than being too thick. On a hungry day I would definitely be ordering two orders of this for myself. Basmati Rice - This does not automatically come with your dish so you need to order it separately. A single $4.99 order can be split between two people. Service was quick. This restaurant is located next to the famous La Casa Garcia, across the street from the Target center. I would definitely come back, especially late at night for an Indian food fix!

The remains of Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken, and Lamb Curry. The Garlic Naan was also incredible, not a spec of that left.

Fantastic food. I'd love to show photos but there was no chance that we were stopping to take pictures. Mahavilr and Prabh were our servers. They were sweet and relatively attentive. Chef Preet made the food that we practically inhaled. Ambiance is very fun too. Great place!!

Palak pakora

Food was way too oily! Most greasy food i've ever tried. Flavor was good, but we couldn't even finish the food because of the amount of oil sitting on top of it

The food was very tasty. It was the first time I had eaten such food in America Today we had Kadhi Paneer Saag Paneer Fish Pakora and garlic naan which were very tasty.Chef Preet made the food very tasty. And Prabh served us very well. He has a very good personality.we will come again

We craved for Indian food and so we went to this place. Huge place and seating area as well, but just one waiter who was taking orders, getting food, and hence we almost waited for 10-15 mins just to get water and to be taken order. We were at a point to leave the restaurant even. Coming to the food, it was fine, not the best of all; however, the waiter, who was a kid, just didn't have courteous communication. Not a very appealing experience here, and moreover, the restrooms were very dirty, and I can't give kudos for any hygiene here.

Chicken Beryani
Gen G.

This is very near our office and our team decided to visit the place. Loved their buffet! I had a little of everything and almost all item I had was just delicious..just the right amount of flavor for us who just want to dabble in different cuisines, including Indian. At $23 per person, we all left happy and content. Came back at another time for lunch to have some Chicken Beryani and it was, as I expected, very delectable with plenty of chicken -- not all-rice like the others. Their serving is quite large for $18, too. Ambiance is okay, service is okay. Will definitely come back to try their other items.

Buffet - chicken tikka masala, navratan korma, palak paneer, and more!

Awesome buffet Friday-Sunday. Came in Sunday and champagne is included! Highly recommend and thank you Prabh for great service!

First time eating here and we had Chicken Korma and Chicken Curry with Garlic Naan bread and they know how to make real Indian food.

Food was ok this time im wondering if the they changed management or ownership. The Tika Masala tasted like mostly tomato juice and a lack of yogurt in the mix. I was brought the wrong dish altogether but i ate it anyway even though it was way to spicy and i asked for mild. The Nan was the best part. It was a hot day and we were served warm water so i asked for ice. Our server guy doesn't speak any English he only knows the menu so it was hard to order. Prices were ok but noticeably increasing so they better start making the food right for the Indian customers that know the food very well. Not the best dinner here but just ok.

SUPER YUMMY! Everything was super well-seasoned, I can't even describe how delicious it was. Came…read moreon a Wednesday night around 8:30pm and food was still HOT and fresh. We got Black Pepper Chicken, Chicken Curry, and Chicken Tikka Masala. If I had to rank my favorites in order (pretty difficult because they bring something different), I would say: 1. Black Pepper Chicken 2. Chicken Tikka Masala 3. Chicken Curry I didn't expect the Black Pepper Chicken to taste creamy but spicy. Chicken Tikka Masala was pretty standard. Chicken Curry is good if you want salty and less cream. All of the chicken in the dishes was tender and not dry at all! Mango Lassi is premade, in their fridge. Very delicious and fresh. I would 100% come back again.

This is a review I never thought I'd have to write. I've…read morebeen coming to Orange Curry regularly for the last couple of years since they first opened, and up until last night, I had never had a bad experience. In fact, I've recommended this place to friends and family and have always enjoyed the food. That's why this review is especially disappointing for me to leave. Last night, I stopped by to grab takeout for my girlfriend and myself. I ordered an Aloo Gobi bowl for her, and for myself, I ordered the chili chicken. Anyone who frequents Orange Curry knows that their chili chicken on Fridays and Saturdays is usually one of the most popular items on the menu. When I arrived, I was told they had run out and needed to make another batch, which would take about 15 minutes. No problem at all--I waited patiently in my car, picked up my order, and headed home. The food tasted fine, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary while I was eating. However, less than an hour later, I started feeling extremely sick. The nausea hit first, followed by sweating, stomach pain, and repeated trips to the bathroom. I couldn't keep anything down for the rest of the night. I became so pale that my girlfriend was genuinely concerned, and I spent hours trying to recover. I didn't start feeling remotely normal again until around 4:30 or 5:00 the next morning. To be clear, I can't say with certainty what caused it, but I can say that this was my experience after eating the meal I purchased that evening. Given how severe the symptoms were and how quickly they came on, I felt it was important to share what happened. It genuinely pains me to leave a one-star review because this has been one of my go-to spots for years. I've had many positive experiences here, which makes this situation even more surprising. My hope is that management takes this feedback seriously and looks into whether there may have been an issue with that particular batch of food. I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, but I would feel guilty staying silent after an experience like this. I sincerely hope no one else has to go through what I went through that night.
