The salmon dish I ordered for my husband was not good. My husband immediately poured Tabasco sauce on the dish and mixed it. I went here once before and thought the food was good, but not this time. read more

We order takeout about twice a month. We are not the most adventurous eaters when it comes to Indian, but we love the flavors so much! Persis is always delicious. Take out orders are almost always ready ahead of schedule and we've never had an issue with our orders being incorrect. They are very accurate with the requested spice level, which I appreciate. We have dined in a few times and despite the staff being very nice, it's been very very slow each time. So takeout is our thing now and we're very pleased. read more

Ordered to go so couldn't tell you about the service or inside. Mild chicken tikka masala had little flavor and was pretty bland. For $18, it's pretty expensive and the amount of rice isn't enough for the meal so order an extra side. The chicken was tender but was so orange it looked like a carrot at first. The naan bread saved them from 2 stars. read more

Their Lamb Saagwala with extra white rice is always my go-to and my favorite dish of theirs to get along with their Korma and Butter Chicken. The naan is soft and delicious too. You can't go wrong with any of their dishes! read more

So delicious. I got the veggie korma and chili naan. There were so many intriguing options. I didn't know what to get. I feel like the mushroom Marsala would've been great too. The prices were good. Most meals were under $20 and most drinks were under $10. This restaurant is close to most hotels in fort mill. It is one of the best Indian restaurants I've had. There was plenty of seating and Indian music videos were playing. Staff was nice and very fast. read more

Persis Indian Grill - Menu - Indian Near Me - Fort Mill, South Carolina

My family recently visited my daughter's college in Rock Hill and decided to try Persis Indian Grill in Fort Mill, since we enjoy their location in Columbia, South Carolina. We were not disappointed. Persis Indian Grill, in Fort Mill South Carolina, is located in a small shopping center that offers an array of parking spots that include a variety of handicap spots that are located in front of the restaurant. Once opening the Persis's door, the aroma of Indian spices smothered me with excitement. The restaurant offers lunch from Monday- Friday: 11 am - 2:30 pm and Saturday-Sunday 11:30am- 3pm. Dinner is from 5pm - 9:30pm Monday - Thursday, on Friday - Saturday 5pm -10pm, and on Sunday 5:30pm - 9pm on Sunday. I would recommend going to lunch or dinner once the restaurant opens, because Persis tends to get busy, since there is not a ton of seating. Even though there is limited seating, they do offer tables for those with disabilities. In addition to their wonderful authentic Indian food Persis also has a full function bar that offers an array of cocktails, beer, and other alcoholic beverages. My family ordered a side of Garlic Naan bread, Shaam Shavera Kofta, Kaju Malsa, and Korma; all of the entrees come with a side of rice. Although the prices are pricey, ranginging from $10 - $25, one will not be disappointed. The portion sizes are larger than the average restaurant and the flavor of the food is authentic. You can tell Persis puts love and care into every dish they serve. Two aspects I enjoy about Persis is that they offer an array of vegetarian options and one can choose their spice level of their entree ranging from baby - extremely hot. If going to Persis for the first time I would suggest ordering the baby spice level to see how your taste buds interact with the spices. However, if your dish is too spicy for you to eat, the staff does not have a problem bringing you a new dish because they truly care for their customers. In addition to their delicious food the restaurant was extremely clean without any visible dirt throughout the dinning hall and restroom. If you are in the Fort Mill area and want to try authentic Indian food, I recommend trying Persis Indian Grill. read more

We've eaten here a few times and for the most part, it's been good. However, a couple of weeks ago we had tandoori shrimp and it was mushy. We all had one piece and unfortunately that's all it took for us to get sick. Everyone got sick. We've only had chicken or vegetarian dishes prior. Stay away from the shrimp. I was contemplating calling the health department but perhaps Persis will pay attention to better quality control. Do better. read more

Our order is Palak Paneer medium spicy. Chicken 65. Butter chicken with white meat. Butter paneer medium spicy. Samosa chat. Navratan Korma. And garlic naan. We've ordered twice from here, and first of all the people who answer the phone are really patient and really kind. They are happy to make changes to the dishes. I have not visited the restaurant, but I would really like to. So far we've just done takeout. Everything is delicious. Solid. On a scale of one to 10. Compared to the best Indian I've ever had. This is a 7.8 Which is a great score. read more

Delicious food great service. Very happy about my experience! If you're looking for good Indian food feel free to go. Try it out. You would love it! read more

We have been here now a few times mostly take out. But it has been amazing. The food portions are great size to share and still have leftovers. We have had the butter chicken, Tikka Masala, Samosa,Paneer Tikka,Chicken Tandoori,Lamb Saagwala(amazing). The Naan are very good but we order a lot. Rice comes with the dishes. Order time for online order is quick and good service with that. read more

Updating my review since my post from 4 years ago. Ordered to-go for Cashew curry and Kadhai paneer along with butter rotis. Cashew curry was decent but kadhai paneer was very bad. It seemed there was more added color than taste. Food taste at this place as deteriorated over the years. Food price has gone up and quality has gone down here. Also butter was missing from butter rotis. Will have to reconsider if I would come back here or not. Overall 3/5 . read more

Food is always delicious! Big portions, enough to share. Enjoy dine in and takeout. My children even enjoy the butter chicken!

The Persis is now offering a buffet on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. We just tried it and my goodness but it is excellent! Really huge selection of meat dishes, veg dishes, biryani's, lentil, chick pea and paneer dishes. plenty of accompaniments, nan and poppadoms. Indian desserts, drinks, salad and fruit. Everything we tried was fresh tasting and delicious. And all for $20! I think what most appealed to me was that a non meat eater will find more than sufficient choices. Really enjoyed it and most highly recommend. read more

Great food. We travel about 45 min to eat here & it never disappoints. Good service. Good simosas, naan, & we enjoy chicken 65,the Korma. Also the Tiki Masala is on point too! read more

Great service. Food was great. Had the pakoras, cauliflower 65 appetizer, paneer, naan. They even insisted on changing one of the orders when it wasn't in our liking. All items were spot on. Overall great location, good ambience. read more

Persis is a pretty complete Indian restaurant. Large choice of Appetizers and Entrees and both vegetarian and meat dishes. Love the Samosa and the Fried Okra sticks were incredible. We had a big party . Lots of Butter Chicken. Tandoori Chicken. Tandoori Paneer, lots of Naans. Only thing the need to work on is service -- Not much clearing of the plates or refilling of water or drinks , but you cannot forget how good the food is !!! read more

First timer Indian restaurant in over 13 years. I'm just not a fan until now. But we will be back here!!!!! Tikka Masala chicken - wonderful over rice!!! Kids loved it. There is a spicy kick to the end of it where the youngest child refused to eat it. But she enjoyed it before the spice. Goat Curry- amazing yummy goat! The adults loved this dish! Lamb Sagwala- order this for the little one to eat but she refused because of the green color. It's was our third favorite. We loved the Goat Curry the most. Spicy but we held our own! I think people who can eat hot wings will enjoy this dish too! read more

Writing my review as I munch on leftovers but oh my gosh. This place is so yummy. So glad there's a place where I can get my curry fix right in town. We had a party of 9 and a child. Some of our group hasn't had Indian food before but throughout enjoyed their meal. Everything we got was delicious. GARLIC NAAN BREAD. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. I got my usual Tikka Masala and it was yummy. My cousin got the Korna and we all agreed it was so good. I'll probably get that next time and recommend it to people. read more

Woke up craving some flavor and spice...so this is were we ending up. Overall, it hit the spot. Started with the Malia Kofta and Samosas then had Chicken Korma and Chicken Tikka. I enjoyed the Tikka a little better but both were great. Only qualm was the chicken was a little dry but we will be back to try more menu items. read more

Went on a lunch date with my boyfriend here and the food was absolutely amazing! We were crunched on time and the host was so friendly, he suggested what we should try and the recommendations were fantastic! it was my first time having Indian and I'm actually happy to say it is now on my list of favorite places to visit. They are quick, delicious and totally worth the price you pay! I ordered the shrimp tikka masala, it was amazing read more

They have an amazing Tika Masala- food could have come with a bit more Jasmine rice. I thought the Naan was average - I've had at other Indian restaurants as well as store bought and it was just a bit too try. My call in order was ready on time, there were sanitizing protocols and a partition in front of cashier which was comforting. read more

Went here for lunch time.. If you're looking for a quick in and out meal., This is not your place to go. We made it there at 12:30pm and didn't get our food till 1:11pm. And have to leave by 1:45pm. I ordered : Fish bites: small pieces of fish fried. The smell didn't sit well with nor, nor taste wasn't very pleasing. Very strong fish smell. I barely took a bite and couldn't even finish that. The chicken Tikka Marsala. A must have in many Indian restaurants. However, it's sweeter than my memory of it. It's no longer savory for me. The color of the curry was off. Maybe it's a different version than I'm usual. Didn't care for that either. Naan is on point. Came out warm and it's cool perfectly.. our server: Brooke is ok. She seem over whelmed so we have to get her attention, like water need to be fill. Overall I'm not impressed.. Service was too slow for lunch time. Seem to be understaffed and food is mediocre! read more

Ordered ToGo on a Saturday night as our first experience here and after waiting 30+ minutes past when the online ordering system said our food would be ready, it turns out that they did not have our order in their system, furthermore they could not issue a refund. Management said they were short staffed, along with a number of other excuses all of which I'm sure are true, but if you are that short staffed, then stop accepting to go orders! read more

Best of the best in Fort Mill, SC Must try on the veggie side 1. Methi Mutter Paneer is a must try and other veg curries at your preference. 2. Garlic/Chilli Garlic Naan 3.

This is truly the best food I have had in the Carolinas. I always come back to see Chander, he gives excellent service! I have brought my family here and tell everyone I know about Persis. Great atmosphere, huge menu, giant bar! The best! read more

Traditional Indian food - not too spicy - just the way I like it. Wait staff was courteous. Buffet items were refilled periodically and served nice and hot. Their phirni and sweet Pongal was too good. All the sabzis - palak paneer, beans poriyal and navaratn kurma - were cooked to perfection. I would definitely go back. Restaurant can work on including more dessert options. read more

Their chicken tika masala is the best I've ever had. I'm not a huge fan of Indian food, when a friend suggested we eat here because it's the best she's had, I was skeptical. I mean we have to hail all the way from Charlotte just to eat Indian food. Alas, this is my 3rd visit because it's just that good. The first visit, I had the lamb chops. They were pretty great but once I tasted the tika masala, I was hooked. Their chicken tika masala is the best I've ever had, which before is why I was not a fan of Indian food because I never had any great Indian food. They give you a lot too and there's plenty of fragrant basmati rice. They also have good garlic naan, that I love to use to sop up the tika masala sauce. read more

Our food took 40 minutes to come out and the server tried telling us the lamb was the reason for the delay (we did tikka lamb and butter chicken). The naan was some of the best we've had but the butter chicken was horribly overcooked. They had one server working the whole dining room and she just looked stressed. Meal was okay, naan was great, nothing was awesome enough to come back and wait 40 minutes to be served again. read more

Tried a veg thali at this place. Very tasty items and that too in sufficient quantity. Overall fulfilling experience at this place.

Great food, services, and atmosphere. I've had butter chicken, lamb vindaloo, and chicken curry, and every dish is sharable. I also highly recommend trying garlic naan, definitely a game changer. read more

We have eaten at PERSIS about three times and have ordered takeout a few more times. we have eaten Indian in NYC, Asheville and Charlotte. This is consistently one of the best Indian restaurants I have tried. The service is great. We have had Tikka masala, the dal tadka, lamb chops, Navratan Korma, samosas, Dahi sev Puri, aloo gobhi, Rogan Josh, and butter chicken. The garlic naan is delicious and fresh and light, and the dal is the best i have eaten anywhere. The Dahi Sev Puri is also the best i have had. We drive 30 min rom Charlotte and would bring visitors to the restaurant. Chander was our server and gave us a complimentary Mango Lassi and dessert. read more

This is my friends Karl and Alicia's favorite Indian Restaurant. I ordered the Chicken Chettinadu, which had curry leaves and pepper corns. The first order of Garlic Naan was burned and cold so I sent it back. The kitchen manager came back out with it and told me that's how it is because it's made in a clay oven. But I told him to turn it over and see if that is something that he would eat. The second batch was perfect. The chicken was seasoned perfectly. I asked for native Indian spicy and they delivered. Now this isn't a tongue number. This is a fully body experience that will leave you tingling at the end. It was so hot that it brought tears to my eyes. They do have chutney but you have to ask for it. Good to know for next time. I had a pleasant experience but this place looks like they took over a sports bar and hung some Indian wallpaper up. But the food was great and while you can't eat the decor I just hate sports bars. read more

Persis Indian Grill - Beer specials - Indian Near Me - Fort Mill, South Carolina

Some of the best chicken tikka masala I've ever had. The biryani and garlic naan was good too. Highly recommend.

I found my new Spot! I work with a team from India on a daily basis and we talk food a lot. After a discussion about food last week I finally made it to Persis. When we walked in there wasn't anyone at the front so we had to wait a few minutes to be seated. It was cold and we sat right in the row in front of the door which was a big mistake because every time the door opened and there were plenty, we got a blast of cold air. Anyway after being seated we were greeted by a very helpful waitress. For appetizers the Mrs. ordered a tomato soup that was outstanding even without the croutons (she ate em all so I didn't get the full experience) and I ordered samosa. Unfortunately I can't tell you how the samosa tasted because it never came out. For entrees we had chicken palak and chicken vindaloo. The chicken palak looked crazy because in my mind I had a different picture but the taste was magnificent with hints of garlic and ginger in creamy spinach with just a touch of heat. The chicken vindaloo for me though was the start of the show. Spicy red curry with chicken and potato with lots of flavorful heat. I was jealous of the rice as it was the most perfect rice I've ever seen, fluffy and individual. A great accompaniment was the garlic naan which imo is a must have and I should have ordered more. Saturdays are 5.99 house margarita's which was perfect to wash down the spicy meal. Can't wait to go back again even with the few missteps because the food made up for them. read more

First time for wife and I. A-OK. Will take another trip or to entertain fan level. I remember being told long ago that you will not find an Asian-Indian restaurant unless the owner can be assured that 50% of the business will be Indian. Am guessing that is why you do not find Indian restaurants unless it is in a prosperous area. Ummmm... Part of a very large shopping center on Carolina Place Drive, so you have to look for it, located deep down on the right hand side. You enter into a cavernous, very high ceiling room. Other than a mural on the wall, it is pretty stark. Booths and tables. That said, on the other side of the restaurant is a nice, cozy-looking bar and more tables. But we were there for dinner and the food. Menu appears to be a bit sparse, but it is plenty. Each section is divided into non-vegetarian and vegetarian. Appetizers, non-veg ($10.99 - 14.99) and veg ($6/99 - 9.99). We had the Chicken Manchurian at $10.99 and the portion was HUGE. Made me worry about ordering an entree! Very good and pretty spicy. I would give it a high 3 out of 5; but they use a one pepper, two pepper three pepper (and die) scale. Ask your wait person. We had Cory and he was great. Finally there WAS a guy who knew everything and it was Cory. He know each dish and the beers. A handy fellow to have around. Indians are great Lager Beer brewers so I like to get their 22 oz bottles which are perfect for two people. Old Monk at $7.99 was good, a lager, but had a bit of a sour taste to it...like home brew. We shifted to another Indian Lager, Power Cool for our entree and that was a true, malty, no after taste lager at the same price. There is a good range of entrees, including biryani rice dishes and they do have a tandoori oven, so you can get the common chicken tikka masala and other baked items. Entree we chose and enjoyed, was the Methi Chicken ($14.99), which we were attracted to because it was cooked with fenugreek leaves. If you have not tried that herb, give it a go. Much different than the standard cumin & cardamom flavors you are used to with Indian curries. Savory. This also was a solid 3 of 5 in heat. Rice is meted out sparsely, with each course coming with about a cup of rice. Fortunately, you can get more so you can soak up the delicious sauces. They also have a variety of naan breads. Some whole wheat. Plain, garlic, onion and butter varieties. However, you have not lived until you try the chili garlic naan ($2.99). This will light your fire in a delightful way. You will find that you can enjoy the heat of this naan by cutting it with the three level sauces. This naan is the best I have had, to include eating in India. The bill was right at $49, which seems high for two dishes, bread and beer; but this is an Indian restaurant which earns a return visit. Maybe we will see you there? read more
