The food here was so amazing that it earns this place a five star review, and overrides the grumpy…read morewaiter issue. The Butter Chicken was rich and creamy. I ordered it mild and it was just perfect. There was plenty of chicken in the sauce, and I finished it all with just a hint of a feeling like I ate too much. The garlic Naan was also some of the best I've ever had. It has wonderful flavor, and yet was so light it almost melts in the mouth. The pricing is more than reasonable for what you get. Garlic Naan and Butter Chicken with a coke ran me about $36 bucks. The inside was very clean, quiet and inviting. I suspect they may do a lot of take out business though as it was almost deserted during the lunch hour. Speaking of lunch, my only wish list here would be that they had a lunch menu available. Eating this much food in the middle of the day makes it easier to feel like taking a nap than to go back to work.

My husband and I went to taste of India on a rainy Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. The inside…read morewas warm and cozy, and our servers were prompt and attentive. The currys were piping hot and delicious. I've struggled to find great butter masala in Seattle, and taste of India's hit the mark! Not pictured, but their naans are huge. My husband and I each ordered naan, and the amount of rice, curry, and naan was the perfect amount for a full serving of leftovers. We were pleasantly surprised by the complimentary samosa appetizers and chocolate torte dessert. Ultimately this place is fantastic and we look forward to coming back- would love to come on a summer evening and sit outside on their patio.

so, this place is pretty clearly, and almost objectively so, made exclusively for westerners…read more what i mean by that is that this place serves Indian food that will not attempt to challenge western palettes in any way - rather its goal is to have people walking out with a mildly positive attitude towards the food. if someone were to ask them how the food was, they will say that it's fine and say that indian food is an underrated cuisine. the first indication of this that caught my eye was on the menu, where it was listed that "all spice levels are American standard". The fact that this is on the menu at an *Indian restaurant* is pretty ridiculous, in my opinion. I'll get to the spice levels later The second indication was when the waiter brought out our naan, and said "Here's your naan bread". I almost laughed out loud at this point. Naan bread? Thank god we didn't order chai or he would've said "Here's your chai tea". when we actually got our food, it was as disappointing as I expected Despite the fact that I ordered the 'Hot' spice level (the second highest), this had utterly no spice at all. I know that I have a high spice tolerance, but you know it's not good when other people at my table who have a low tolerance cannot taste any spice whatsoever. I've had hotter dishes ordering the 'Hot' level at American restaurants! In addition to there not being any spice, there was pretty much no flavor at all to the curries. There was just no point to the gravy on both the Jaipuri "Masala" and the Vegetable Kofta, as it both cases it was quite bland and essentially tasted like nothing. The paneer and the kofta were ok - but nothing more than average. Again, the lack of any kind of flavor is just crazy. Our table also got the Biryani, which had decent vegetables but also suffered from a lack of flavor The roti and garlic naan that we got were really hard and difficult to break apart. not very good at all If you're Indian - do not come here - you'll get far better Indian food either a) at home or b) at another place If you're not Indian - I would highly recommend trying another place to actually get a taste of what Indian food is really like. This watered-down version simply isn't it. I would recommend Saffron Grill in Northgate for an example of Indian food done correctly on the positive side, one thing i appreciated about this menu is the customization available for different curries this is especially helpful when it relates to giving options to vegetarians, as it doesn't restrict people who are vegetarian to specific curry options having paneer, vegetables, and tofu options available for each curry is pretty good i also thought the spinach naan was pretty good. out of all the bread we ordered, it was the only naan that managed to be soft, and easy to pull apart the spinach inside tasted pretty good as well the complimentary samosas (although clearly reheated from frozen) and sweet at the end was a decent touch the portion sizes were also decent - the amount of rice that came with the curry was pretty significant

From crispy dosas to flavorful sambar, curd rice, and even traditional dishes like curry dosa, you can really tell they focus on maintaining real South Indian flavors. And I have to mention their crab curry was absolutely delicious! Rich, spicy, and full of flavor... definitely one of my favorites. The vibe is simple and welcoming, perfect for family dining or casual outings. If you're in Seattle or nearby areas like Bothell/Bellevue, it's worth the drive.

I didn't have very high expectations. I initially wanted to try the baby corn stir-fry, but they were out of it, so I ordered a medu vada and a Hyderabad masala dosa instead. The sambar tasted more like a North Indian style, which I liked, though it could have used a bit more salt. Overall, the experience was decent. We had to wait a few minutes both to place our order and to check out, but it wasn't too bad. The servers seemed a bit overwhelmed. I would definitely go again.

The…read morestaff was very kind and there was a decent number of people sitting in the restaurant for a late lunch. Ordered the Chicken Vindaloo, Butter Chicken, and chili onion naan. Each curry came with rice that was nicely fragrant. You get to choose your spice level, so we chose 7/6 for our dishes. I personally could have gone spicier. My favorite was the Chicken Vindaloo. There was so much depth in flavor to the dish and had that addicting taste. The butter chicken was also good (that was ordered at a 6 level spice), but I think because it's creamy, I could have gone spicier. In both curries, there is a decent amount of protein. The naan like the other reviews say is thin, but has a nice crisp to it and is still very good. I'm giving this 5 stars in comparission to other spots in Port Orchard. If it were in an area that perhaps had more Indian food, then I might give it a 4.5. I will definitely be coming back though.

The portions have gotten smaller while the prices have gone up, the lamb is very tough and fatty and no longer tender, and the spice level is not what it used to be.

I love the chicken 65 but it is now less than half of what I used to receive. The server was nice but walked away mid order to answer the phone, it just felt off. The restaurant is clean.

The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, and I noticed a lot of people were ordering takeout online while we were there. Food Portion sizes were fair for the price, and they offer many vegetarian and vegan options. Highly recommend getting the garlic naan with any dish. Foods tried: Garlic naan - Hot and fresh, slightly crispy with a nice savory flavor. Samosa appetizers - Comes with two, but they are pretty large and very filling. Chicken tikka masala - Served in a deceptively large portion and very savory. Lamb biryani - Kind of like their version of fried rice, served with a mild yogurt sauce on the side. Service Servers were friendly. The only downside was that the food took a little while to come out, but the wait was worth it. Overall I've been here twice already and will definitely be back again. The food I've tried so far gives me confidence that you can't really go wrong ordering anything off the menu.
