Ok, I'm not one to give good reviews, but holy crap this place is good. Granted I never had real Indian food before so this was a first. Start off first with the restaurant. Looks clean. Does have boxes and stuff out, but nothing horrible. Second, friendliness, the man that took my order-- super friendly and very helpful. While sitting there all I heard from the customers was how great this place was. Third seeing I didn't eat there I took no pictures of the food. I didn't want to do an injustice to it. The taste and flavor however was awesome. I got mine medium in heat. I tried the Lamb and Goat. The goat still had the bone , so be tentative not to bite to hard. Last, yes, a little pricey. Two dishes or items for around 53$ and I would have liked more than what they gave. Portions were a little lite. Would I get it again though? Oh hell yes!!! I'd rather have this over Chinese food. So if your looking for something new, or have had Indian food and want to try authentic Indian food now. This is worth the price. Last, last, the garlic Naan. Freakin great. read more

Incredible tandoori chicken! So good with the Cilantro and Mint Chutney and Naan. Very friendly staff and attentive. read more

I came here for the first time a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed myself. It's a quaint place and the staff is wonderful! They were super helpful with answering questions. The food came out quick and was delicious. It was reasonably priced. My only drawback that it was quiet there because no music was playing. read more

Best Indian food in the area!! The restaurant is immaculately clean and the service was top notch . I have had real Indian food before and this is as an authentic as I have seen. The spices are well balanced, the ingredients fresh, and the taste is wonderful. read more

Nirvana Indian Bistro - Chana Masala - Indian Near Me - Wyomissing, Pennsylvania

I decided to go to Nirvana for lunch today to try it out. I had an app and a main with bread and everything was good. The waiter was quick and attentive. He suggested medium spicy which was fine. I'll have to return again to try more items from the large menu. read more

2nd time here. Again, so delicious!! Give them a try. Great service. They do not skimp on shrimp in the biryani or tender morsels of lamb. read more

We ordered Chicken Vindaloo and Butter Chicken takeout and weren't impressed with our dishes. Additionally, the rice wasn't well cooked, a lot of hard pieces. Both dishes were very salty. Chicken Vindaloo: The chicken wasn't dry and the potatoes were cooked through. However, the sauce was just really tomatoey and salty. Butter Chicken: The curry had a smokey, charcoal flavor. read more

Great food, made to your request. Hot or spicy? Don't like an ingredient? Sure we can do that for you. Very pleasant service and food was very tasty. I will try medium spice next time. Had my usual, chicken tikka masala and veggie korma with deconstructed samosas. read more

This place is so consistent! Recently tried the Lamb Roganjosh and it was fabulous! Loads of flavor, lamb perfectly cooked & so much sauce to dip my garlic naan in *drool*. I order the Butter Chicken every time I order and it tastes exactly the same each time.. delicious! read more

The food was so salty we couldn't even finish it. Little to no flavor aside from the salt. Had the vindaloo chicken and tikka masala and they weren't spicy at all (ordered medium spice level). The naan had some burnt portions. Pretty disappointing for the price and the fact we won't even save the leftovers. On the plus side the order was ready on time and hot. read more

Closed! Sign on the door. Please update your hours on Yelp! People plan their day. Sheesh.

The food here is absolutely fantastic, and the service is always great. If you're vegan like me, I highly recommend the Baingan Bharta. Amazing! I'd suggest to the owner that they add tofu to their menu, but other than that alone this place is five stars all the way. I always feel so nourished after one of their meals. So, so good. read more

2nd time here and even better than the first, we met another couple and ordered Starters of Vegetable Samosa and Gobi Manchurian. Samosa was good but Gobi was Amazing! Entrees were Shrimp Vindaloo, Chicken Tikka Masala, Tiger Shrimp, and Goat Curry. The Goat melted in your mouth and was the star, and the Tikka Masala was a close second but all were great. The Mango Lassi was great along with their homemade Orange Kulfi for dessert, we will be back! read more

I've never been disappointed with this place. I've eaten in and taken out. Food is always tasty and comes out to the table very hot. The latest time I visited, we did takeout. Everything was packaged perfectly and still hot and delicious even after the 10 min drive home. When this place asks you how spicy you want something prepared, there are different levels. All I can say is if you order extra spicy, be very prepared for *extra* spicy. Phew! I break a sweat when chowing down, but I love it! read more

Food Is a 10-10 except for the waiter kept on refilling my water when it was half full. He said "How is it" about 10 times. Also the bathroom was dirty and the soap felt weird after using it. I got the orange chick garlic nan and Something I can't pronounce. I Recommend coming here. read more

Best Indian food in the whole reading area, without doubt. Nothing bad here: highly recommend the bel puri, samosa chat and cauliflower appetizers. Naan and bread options awesome, curries are packed with flavor too. read more

Excellent selection - great selections of naan; paneer, tandoori Ample servings and very good flavor. True value in flavor and value

I have been a devoted patron to this establishment it opened. Ordered at least 50 times. Unfortunately, I just picked up my last dinner from here. I was charged $5 for chutney and onions. Five dollars - I asked about the charge and was told "I put a lot of onions in your order". Okay - I just signed and left with my food without fuss even though I've never been charged any amount for this in the past. I then come home and find no onions. I call back and was offered a $1 refund next time I come in. There will be no next time. Unfortunately management has changed several times and they must be struggling to have the audacity to charge for what is essentially Indian salt, pepper and ketchup. And for the record, I am Indian and the 2 stars is for the food. Zero stars for management and nickel and diming its patrons. read more

Nice little restaurant in the strip mall. Staff and owner were friendly, they were willing to cater to special requests. BYOB. Menu is pretty big and has a good variety. We had the chili paneer, Chili chicken, chicken 65, Paneer tikka masala, vegetable jalfrazie, malai kofta, chicken vindaloo, and paneer tikka masala with garlic naan were great. They also had a special naan that wasn't on the menu which was like a chili garlic naan which was great too. read more

Our new go-to place for Indian food! We always get samosas, malai kofta, dal and naan. Great option if you're vegetarian or vegan. We always do take out, and they are right on time with their promised time! read more

Update: Please ask about their rice since so many people have told me about cow milk being in it. Not sure if they have addressed it. No one would even think to ask about that. Who puts milk in rice? === This new place was formerly East Wok, right beside Walmart in the same shopping center as Thaiwat. They have completely redone the interior, so the inside is now a real restaurant rather than a takeout place, though they do a TON of takeout. There is more vegan on the menu than the two other Indian places in town, hurray! I am surprised that they are so close to Laxmi's, but I think Berks County can support a few Indian restaurants. They are open daily with a lunch buffet. The large vegetarian menu is about one-third vegan, including some new dishes we had not seen before, like spinach and potatoes. Very friendly service. Not too many vegan appetizers, so I wish they would mark them and add more. We had the fried cauliflower, and it was delicious. We will get the grilled mushrooms next time. Since the pakoras are not vegan here, how are they made vegan at Laxmi's, hmmm? For some reason, I liked that the papadum were in little circles like chips, which is easier to eat. The green mint sauce here is made without yogurt, the owner said. This is the second or third location. Make sure to grab a menu for the coupons inside. read more

Food was excellent! Well spiced and greatly prepared! Restaurant is well set up , clean and charming! The waiter was knowledgeable and very nice! Highly recommend it! read more

I stopped in here for the lunch buffet and I was very pleased. Great selection and it was regularly refilled while we were here. The steam table is appreciated. It definitely keeps the stuff hotter than Laxmi's setup. They bring the naan out in a basket to each table which is a better way than having that sit on the buffet. I am a little surprised that none of the other reviews mention saltiness though. We were here a few weeks ago for dinner and the pakoras were so salty they were almost unenjoyable. You could see the salt on them, so it was like they threw that on after cooking. One or two of the things I tried today was a bit salty too. Will definitely return.

The food here is outstanding. I've always ordered take out but they've always been friendly when I go in.

Food was phenomenal and customer service was great! Orders came out fast and all of the food was cooked perfectly. Can't wait to go back and get some more! read more

Everything very good! Wonderful :) Would love to come back again. We tried chili chicken and grilled mushrooms (good, but only one I wouldn't get again) appetizers, lamb chops, chicken tikka masala, tandoori chicken, shahi paneer, and lastly lots of orange kulfi for dessert. We didn't realize one order of the kulfi comes with several slices on a plate. They forgot to give dinner plates until we told them but they're very nice :) Cute small place, dimmed lights, and nice pictures. I called ahead so they set up tables for 8 people. read more

I order from here whenever I am hungry for Indian food and it has been delicious every time. The saag paneer, malai kofta, and garlic naan are my absolute favorites. The flavor is out of this world! The staff is also very friendly. Highly recommended. read more

Invited to go with friends on Saturday evening. We had reservations and were seated right away. It was my first time to an Indian restaurant and I ordered garlic naan and lamb roganjosh. It was amazing! Lamb melted in my mouth. You can order mild, medium or spicy. I selected medium and it was perfection. Husband was very happy with tandoori mixed platter. Waitstaff was very helpful and friendly. They were very accomodating and substituted more shrimp to replace salmon on his dish. Our hosts ordered chicken tikka masala and lamb curry. Everyone was full and happy. Splitting an orange kulfi for dessert was perfection. Can't wait to go back read more

Tried them twice. Terrible food. They use Tofu instead of paneer in Paneer curries. Use color in the food. My hands were all yellow after having their curry. Please stay away if you like IIndian food. read more

I came in for the lunch buffet and was very pleased with what I experienced. Good value for the price. The food was very well spiced without being overpowering, and the service was attentive but not overbearing. Excellent Gobi Manchurian and other cauliflower-based dishes - and I historically hate cauliflower. Complimentary naan was very good and paired well with the dishes I had. I will definitely return. read more

This is just a little gem of a place. The food is consistently excellent, the staff is very friendly and it's a nice quiet ambiance. My wife and I try everything. I enjoy goat dishes that you don't find everywhere. We've taken friends and relatives from the NYC area and they are quite surprised at the quality of the food. read more

The lunch buffet was a hit. The price of $9.95 for the buffet was quite reasonable for the offerings available. There were plenty of choices, all freshly made, with the chafing dishes keeping the food at good serving temps. The staff was attentive and polite. The makeover of the location from the previous tenant was well done. The atmosphere was appropriate, done with enough Indian decor to please without being over done. Definitely worth going on my regular restaurant lunch rotation. read more

I went here when the restaurant first opened and was unimpressed by both the dishes and the service. Boy, was I mistaken! It turns out that Nirvana is one of the best Indian restaurants in this part of the state, easily comparable to big-city north Indian food. Delicious dishes: --Butter chicken --Tandoori chicken --Paneer tikka masala --Nirvana yellow dal --Alu saag --Samosa chat The naan and roti are also excellent. The laasis are also fantastic and, surprisingly, many restaurants really mess them up, especially mango. The buffet is excellent... a real bargain, too, considering the quality. The gulab jamun is great, but as desserts go, the orange kulfi can't be beat! read more

This has been my go to Indian restaurant for a couple years. It was way better than the alternatives. Now, the tikka masala sauce is not consistent. One day it is oily and thin... the next order it is creamy and perfect. The rice has been hit or miss. The rice I got tonight was not thoroughly cooked. When done right, it is great. Maybe they have two chefs? I wish I knew. read more

Saw this went in, in place of East Wok right next to Walmart. Saw mostly good reviews for the most part, but decided to give it a go. We have tried some of the indian around the area, but we used to live in Chester County so we have had some pretty good indian food. With that being said, since we were unsure, we decided to only order two dishes and the Raita for now. We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter Chicken (Chicken Makhani) and Raita (yogurt sauce). First off, the chicken in both dishes was super tender, and had a great grilled flavor. Which some of the other indian places in the area lack big time. You don't get that great grill flavor so that was fantastic! Going off of most places in the area, it was great pricing as well, great bang for your buck. For all of the food we ordered and the Raita it was about $30 total and of course it came with a heaping portion of rice. Rice was cooked well, just your typical basmati rice. The portion was great as well, we were stuffed! We will definitely be ordering again. Next time we will try to remember to post pictures. read more

I've been here three or four times for my lamb tikka masala. I also get naan bread and tomato soup. Everything is always delicious and fresh. The people are friendly too! read more

I like most of their food items, and always enjoy the lunch buffet. Lately though I have gotten somewhat addicted to the chicken tikka masala, which when paired with a fresh naan, and a slice of onion with a little chutney, is pure heaven. It's similar to the London version of the dish and it's great to see it available locally read more

Nirvana Indian Bistro - Best Indian food in area. From the buffet - Indian Near Me - Wyomissing, Pennsylvania

I had a bad experience here when they first opened, which I'll chalk up in part to my inexperience as a vegan ordering Indian cuisine. I mistakenly believed the naan to be dairy free when in fact it is not. Since that initial experience, I have had several delicious meals (delivery via Delivery Dudes) that have been as healthy as they've been tasty. Great food -- just be careful to order vegan/dairy free if that is what you're after. read more
