Royal India Cuisine - Saag paneer and Salmon coconut curry- awesome! - Indian Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Great Ambience awesome food best in Eugene so far. Well greeted. 5-star customer service

The food was amazing... the food we received anyway. Make sure you guys double check you have everything in the order.. and the correct items :) Other than that I loved it!! read more

This is a solid north Indian place where the food was fast and satisfying. Items on the menu are what you'd expect, without any surprises. These days I'm usually craving dishes I've never heard of from other parts of India, but if this is what you're in the mood for, they do a good job of it. Re: the food: -Flavors on the bindi masala were perfect, with no sliminess. Okra was a quite tough, but in all fairness, it's not in season right now. -Kofta were delicious! Creamy cashew sauce. -Mint chutney for papadums please? Not just tamarind My constructive criticism: -Temperature in the restaurant was chilly -They started cleaning up, sweeping, vacuuming, etc. at 8:30/9 even as the restaurant closes at 9:30, which made me feel in a hurry to leave. read more

I have been to Royal India a few times. After my first time alone, then I took friends. Tonight I GrubHub an order (note I am a mile away) I can vouch for the lamb plate, the Vindaloo (add your preferred protien), the aloo gobhi, the naan or stuff naan is authentic, but Do Not pass on the chutney sampler. Taste all the things, buy multiple dishes in a group and share with plenty of naan or roti. Meat or No, you will not leave disappointed, the flavors are great. Eugene needs more authentic international cuisine. Royal India is filling that niece. read more

We visited this restaurant on 09-12-23 around 11.30am the ladies at the front desk were not so welcoming after we seated they served water which was nice after few minutes we noticed it was pretty cool where we were sitting so we decided to move to the different table away from the A/C but the ladies at the front desk get annoyed they both rolled their eyes as we were moving to different table.We ordered some main course dishes one of the dish was unable to make more spicy as we requested so the server said she can bring some chilies. After we got our order there were no extra chilies which was fine. We were trying to call the server but both of the ladies ignored us and none of them came to check on us if we need anything finally I call one of them she said I will let our server know she did but no one came and they both ignored us.We came from Seattle on our family's recommendation. The food was good but the service was 0 stars.We made a big order that we will enjoy some on our way back. But we didn't even pack our leftovers because they made us feel so uncomfortable.They really need to improve their customer service.I Hope the management watch cameras read more

Royal India Cuisine - Indian Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

How does this place stay open? I got three to go entrees and a couple of samosas, and I will not return. The worst value in town. Evergreen restaurant is better on so many levels. My lamb Vindaloo was bland when I ordered it hot, the Saag paneer was cooked last week I think, and the vegetarian Korma was OK.. The entre size was one pint deli plastic, and we got more rice than entre. Over sixty dollars for gravy and rice read more

Incredible food. I had the Chickeb tikki masala, naan bread and some rice and it was amazing. I will definitely be coming back again. The only complaint for me is that the prices are very high. About $18-$20 for an entree, but it is definitely worth it. read more

Food was extremely bland & not worth the $$$ considering I'am a West Coast Cali Foodie... The service however was excellent!!

One of the BEST Indian restaurants I've ever had. The Masala and Korma we had were both fantastic. I've only been to Evergreen here locally, for comparison; but this is definitely my favorite of the two. read more

Excellent service and delicious food. Server made choosing our items easy and made for a wonderful experience.

My first favorite thing about Royal India is the food. The flavors are exquisite, the ingredient quality is top notch. The Aloo Gobi and Bhindi Masala are amazing, as is the lentil soup and the lamb chop. I loved the first things I tried so I've never tried anything else. One of my second favorite things about Royal India is how clean everything is in the restaurant. The upkeep is impeccable. So many restaurants have sticky tables or dust in the corners, this restaurant is extremely clean. The owners are wonderful, sometimes the hired staff can be iffy but generally they are well-trained and polite. I've been eating here regularly for about 4 years now and won't stop. It's the best Indian food I've ever had! 5 stars across the board and I'm picky about quality and have food sensitivities. read more

I was so in love with Royal India for so long, to a point with an almost somewhat unhealthy infatuation. I miss good Indian food being back in Eugene and had been really let down by Evergreen consistently ever since they moved from Franklin to 7th street (more to come on that in another review!) But then the hubs and I took a little break from our bi monthly excursions for lunch, and came back to disappointingly watery sauces, kind of dry looking entrees, undercooked naan, and a seriously lacking variety of dishes, especially in the veggie category. We're giving it another little separation period, hoping to get back to that honeymoon phase we enjoyed with the lunch buffet for so long...Royal India, if you're listening please bring back the triple onion fritters! That alone will win your place back in my heart!! I'm also going for those amazing curried potatoes and that spicy eggplant and cauliflower dish! I'm just not ready to say goodbye!! read more

I really liked this place. Chicken tikka masala is great not to tomato-y and has an amazing spice. I really really liked it. I've had a lot of tikka masalas in my day and that was solid. Aloo Globhi was standard nothing special but still tasty. We got the samosas to start, perfectly crispy and the tamarind sauce is super yummy. I wish they served the green one with it, I like to mix the sauce together. We also got the pakora tasted good, pretty heavy because it is deep fried but o well. We also got the cauliflower Manchuria, that was amazing. Wish it was a little crispier but I will be thinking about that dish for a while. Rice was good and garlic naan was yummy. read more

I finally made it to Royal India & the only thing I'm unhappy about is that I hadn't come sooner. This place is staffed by some pretty amazing humans. Friendly & welcoming. Great menu selection & I shared a splendid meal with a friend. So good in fact that I went back for the weekend buffet. Super impressed with the selection on food & how they kept it stocked right to the end. Definitely recommend for great Indian food. read more

The food was good but the service was terrible. Not the best experience. She never came back to check, if we needed more Naan or rice. Couldn't even flag her down unless I walked up to the counter myself. read more

We ordered delivery. Chicken korma was good and the chicken very tender. Aloo gobi potatoes had an unfamiliar texture and the dish was very oily but was seasoned well. The Brussels sprouts were tasty, though we wished they had a bit more sauce. We were disappointed that the order of samosas only came with one samosa (not two, which is the number shown in the photo) but we split it and it was very good. read more

I love this place for lunch. They offer an affordable buffet that is very good. The place is clean and their buffet offerings change which is nice. Service is also friendly and attentive. I've never been here for dinner but their lunches are legit. They also offer a full bar. read more

This place is so good! Best Indian food in Eugene. Staff are friendly, great service, and are so knowledgeable and helpful about the menu. Especially the young man with longer hair, he is very knowledgeable and friendly. read more

Very limited buffet items, the food was ok, it seemed as though the Chili Chicken tasted as though it was microwaved Kung Pao chicken in a former life. . The rice was old and stale, however, the flavor was the saving grace for all above listed items. The ambiance was nice, clean and spacious. I hate giving this place low marks, I'm in town for a few days and may give it another shot. I kinda feel as though I may have caught them on an off day. read more

First of all, Me LOVE everything related to India. The spice and herbs, Punjabi songs, Bindi, you name it. Although Eugene's track record of Indian restaurants is okay (Evergreen, Taste of India), when Royal opened up, it definitely took over the sad competitors. Lunch buffet was superb, good price and good selection (prior to covid). But now food seems to be way over priced for curry sauce and tiny cuts of chicken and beef and it's starting to feel a bit like a chain. And it's bothersome to have a crack at the chefs/cooks not wearing masks when the kitchen door swings open without me trying to peek in. Every. Single. Time. I wait to pick up an order. Conclusion: I'm gonna learn how to cook Indian. Wish me luck read more

I have found my goto restaurant! I have been back in the NW for a year and have not found any restaurants that I was excited about until today. I had the lamb curry and the lamb was flavorful and melted on the tongue... the rice was cooked perfectly and the whole experience was absolutely great. read more

The lunch buffet is a great deal. There are a lot of options and food is constantly being refilled. The curries are really good and there are even pork dishes. This is not something you normally see at Indian restaurants. I'm really glad we decided to pop in. I'm excited to go back and order from the menu. read more

I am a waiter here but I have to write this because Royal India in my honest opinion is the most underrated and best kept secret of Eugene Oregon fine dining. My favorite dish would have to be the coconut curry, Vindaloo, Korma, and classic curry. But really everything here is amazing and worth the trip!!! read more

We stumbled across this place on our way back after visiting the Tulip farm. We ordered the Quinoa Croquette, butter naan, puri, Vegetable Kadai, Paneer Tikka masala, Malai Kofta. Everything was fabulous. They even adjusted the spice level in the tikka masala so the kids could eat better. Quinoa Croquette was fabulous with the beet raita. Do try this dish. We also loved the Vegetable Kadai. This is a spicy dish but not too much where the chilli does not over power the dish. The hostess we had was so kind and attentive. She understood and made sure, we had what we wanted. Really loved her. We will definitely come back! read more

Seriously some of the best Indian food I've ever tried. The chicken Manchurian is my favorite

Every meal I order from here is so good and hot and very fast. I've had it delivered many times and eaten at the location, always happy I did. Today I ordered delivery online again but I made an error. When I called the sweet angel who helped me was friendly and so super patient even when I was being a little brat because I didn't realize she was smarter than me and already corrected my mistake. Highly recommend and appreciate the staff :) thank you read more

Oh man, I could a Bowl of their raita and naan...sooo dang good! I also loved their samosas, but my fav is the chicken biryani. I hope they restart their buffet soon so I can enjoy trying a bit of everything and venturing out even more. read more

Food was nothing to get excited about. It was takeout only because of covid, so we went to a park to enjoy a river view while eating. Started opening everything up to discover oops, they did not include any utensils or napkins. Ever try to eat saucy Indian dishes without utensils? Went back to the restaurant to get some. By then, the containers leaked juices and made the paper bag wet. It made for an extremely frustrating experience that would have been avoided by simply including utensils, napkins, and putting the containers with wet contents into a plastic bag that doesn't leak sauces that stain upholstery. The food wasn't good enough to want to try this place again. read more

During COVID 19 it's hard to find a place to eat with such ample outdoor space! This Indian restaurant is amazing. The menu is unique and explains what each item is in detail. For someone who is always scared to order something different you will feel comfort here because the menu is so detailed. I ordered the Maili Kofta- a vegetarian meal. It was delicious. My husband and I almost licked our plates!!! We will be going back. Also the staff is really friendly and happy. read more

I have visited Eugene (due to cold weather) I decided to try Yelp-delivery with this place. I read some of the top reviews here and ordered the Shrimp Korma. IT WAS SO RICH and I loved it! The flavors were not too strong, shrimps were generous and chunky! Delivery was fast and reasonable (with tax and delivery fee it was about $19?) I would definitely love to come back and check out this place in person. read more

awesome food. lamb biryani, chicken tikka masala and garlic naan! great service and good food! read more

Royal India Cuisine - royal india - Indian Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Place is very clean. Service was good but food was nothing special. We got Lentil soup - tasted more like coconut than the dish with "coconut milk" tofu coconut curry with white rice - this dish was sweet. It didn't taste like coconut and the rice was very plain. Classic lamb curry - not spice at all even though I ask for mild. Not flavorful or interesting in any way and the brown rice even worst than the white. Oh!! And the prices are the classic $13 to $16 dollars per plate. We took half of the food home to be fixed... I definitely wouldn't recommend this place. read more

Awesome Indian food we found in Oregon. The server was too kind and remembered minute details of our order. I love the way madras coffee was served. We ordered Daal Makhani, Paneer Saag and Bhindi masala and everything was up to the expectations. Highly recommended. read more

Love it love it, love it! Always hot, fresh, and delicious! Never a letdown for sure! If you like it mild to bad for you, but if you want heat that is delicious and flavourful then be brave and try hot! Lamb Vindaloo is my favorite followed by Any Veggie dish on the menu! read more

What a poor experience after so much hype! I have wanted to take the family here since I saw the sign off delta. First off, restaurant is beautiful and the service was outstanding, like clean your feet outstanding. Stopped by for the lunch buffet for 11.95 Rice...it was crunchy. Wtf? Chicken tikka masala.... 1 piece of chicken in the entire buffet pan, just curry. Tandoori chicken... Ran out. Naan... Wife had a piece that was burnt. Saag was probably the only thing I wanted to eat left.. But my carnivore T-rex self shed a tear eating piles of spinach and tofu. Can you see why I had such a poor experience? Maybe it would be better for dinner, but I won't likely be back. Evergreen indian restaurant is clearly superior. read more

Everything I have ordered has been amazing. The flavors are complex and savory. Even my two and five year old love their "favorite chicken".

Today we ordered several party tray items but when we went to pick them up they charged us waaaay more than their online posted prices. Instead of $90 for the lamb curry, they charged $130. Instead of $55 for alloo ghobi they charged $80. For chicken curry, $110 instead of $80. Instead of $20 for rice, they charged $30. I protested and the response was "We haven't had time to change the prices on the web site." Instead of being honest, they "generously" gave us 10% off. That is outrageous. Do NOT order from Royal India unless you are prepared to be ripped off. read more

Fresh, clean and simple, but delicious is how I would best describe Royal India. I had an opportunity to stop this n yesterday to sample their daily lunch buffet. While not as large as other Indian restaurants, the quality alone makes up for it! Many veggie options, chicken and lamb as well as fresh naan and desserts. The restaurant is nicely decorated with an open and brightly lit dining area. In addition to the buffet there is also a full menu to choose from. For only $11.99 for the buffet I will definitely be back and encourage you to give them a try. Service was very friendly as well and made dining experience even nicer. Bon appetit! read more

See all

Awesome food! Awesome service! We ordered Malai Kofta, Veg kadhai, and Daal Makhani. All the curries were good. Daal Makhani was especially exquisite. Very authentic taste. The garlic naan was also good. Very soft, and tasty. read more
