Went there again today My Son lives their butter chicken I live their tandoori chicken There Naans are fresh from the tandoor as you take a seat! Oh and the tea and the dessert. Only thing is the veggies could be more fresh I know I will be coming back read more

It's been a while since i've been through this part of Maryland because of the pandemic. I planned to stop at Cafe Spice, but they are closed Sundays. Royal Kitchen saved the day. I started with the Chicken MoMo Soup: Great dumplings in a lovely chicken based soup with fresh cilantro and celery! All dishes are spiced to order. I ordered the Chicken Kadai extra spicy. The dish started at a 5/10 and made it to about a 6.5/10 for heat. My sinuses opened, but at no time did I need to slow down. The orange dining room is like a meditation on Butter Chicken. Service was friendly and presentation top notch. Cheers to you stopping in for a 5 Star experience! read more

Delicious food and great service! Ingredients were fresh and tasty. I'll definitely be back!

We made a reservation for 6:00 PM to introduce our friends to Indian cuisine. My husband and I arrived first and were promptly seated by Rupesh at a round table as I requested when I made the reservation. The restaurant was empty which I do not understand, as the restaurant is such a quiet and peaceful place to enjoy tasty Indian cuisine. They always start you off with 3 kinds of dip and crispy bread. We each tried something different so that we could share tastes. The dishes we had were Chicken Tikka Masala (boneless cubes of chicken grilled in a Tandoor and cooked in a rich creamy tomato and onion sauce), Lamb Tikka Masala (lamb cooked in an array of masterfully blend of Masala), Chicken Saag (boneless chicken cooked with spinach and topped with spices) and Lamb Korma (tender cubes of lamb cooked in a cream sauce with nuts). All our dishes were served with Basmati rice and bursting with flavor. We also ordered two orders of Naan (soft flour bread baked in a clay Tandoor). The portions are always so generous that we had some to take home. The restaurant did fill up as the evening went on. Our friends were so pleased that they finally tried Indian cuisine and liked it. BYOB with no corkage fee is always a plus for us. Thank you for a lovely dinner and evening. read more

Royal Kitchen - Three Dips - Indian Near Me - Cockeysville, Maryland

Underwhelming Butter Chicken and Naan bread. Entree lacked layers and flavor. Just awful!!! Also, they're a little stingy with meat despite upward $20 for the entree. Walking in the place was a bit scruffy but cashier person was pleasant. Best discovery was a yellow sauce that traditional Loy came with their dumplings. No idea on name but it was flavorful. Overall: I will NEVER return. 1 stars on food because it wasn't raw. read more

Very tasty food and you can get different delicious dishes, spices are spot on but I like their food to be spicier

In my opinion this is the best Indian food in Baltimore County. I'm basic and I get the chicken tikka every time - and it's excellent. If I had to mention anything i'd change it would be the price of the garlic naan. read more

Not that tasteful. Ordered paneer tikka masala and chicken tikka masala and meat samosa, mango lassi. The best out of them was the mango lassi. read more

Came in tonight because I had a gift certificate from my future in-laws for my birthday that was back in February. They had heard it was really great authentic food so thoughtfully got me a $50 gift certificate. Finally went to go use it tonight and they wouldn't take it. Apparently they're under new ownership (but still same restaurant name) and they wouldn't accept it. Really annoying bc that is money someone already spent at the restaurant. Food was good but this left a really bad taste in my mouth at their bad business practice. read more

Twas the night of Christmas and all through the house no leftovers were found and we were..... hungry. Pizza? Chinese? What the heck is even open tonight? I turned to my most trusted resource, YELP! Indian cuisine is probably my favorite food of all time (with Mexican, anything fig, and donuts coming in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th) so I was happy to see Royal Kitchen was open and ready for my business. I called and was greeted by a very nice gentleman who took my order for takeout. Bonus points for repeating my order back to me correctly! It was ready at pick up time and was correct as ordered. The chicken tikka masala was very good and enough to split between two people, plus one more meal the next day! The chana masala was also delicious and enough for leftovers...twice! We basically got six meals out of two entrees because the portions were YUGE (I call that "American size"). The naan and garlic naan were yummers! The vegetable samosas were tasty, especially with the accompanying sauces. All in all, I would order from here again. Good food, good service, big portions! read more

Good food, I believe they new business. Non the less check out their Chicken Tikka Masala. BOMB! I'll try to stop by again if I'm in the area for sure. But I just love so far. Long story short check this place for true Indian food. read more

Lamb saag is my go-to dish when ordering at Indian restaurants. This particular dish was quite plain. I couldn't taste any spices and it was really just bland. I wish I could say more. They did give us a good portion of rice, equivalent to a whole entree dish. read more

Took almost 2 hours to receive the food. Food was good, but not worth it. At least be HONEST... they told us 20 min on the phone. Others coming in said that they were also waiting over an hour but was told 20 min. When my boyfriend went inside to grab the food, they didn't even acknowledge him at any point, even after an hour of standing inside. While he was standing in there for so long, though, he did notice ample amounts of dust on the vents and the ceiling. C'mon, now. read more

My family of five just moved to the area and have ordered delivery several times. The lamb curry, naan, and samosas are great. The rice is good. Prices are very fair. Children's options are nice. The delivery is fast and exactly what you expect from a food delivery restaurant. If you like the Indian food you've eaten in local Indian restaurants then you will like this place a little more. I'll probably add more food reviews when I finally stop ordering the Lamb curry. read more

Oh my gosh, this food was amazing. We got delivery and it arrived within 35 minutes. Best Naan I've ever had in my entire life and the eggplant was insane. When I noticed our order arrived without the naan I ordered, I called and asked if it could be removed from the bill. The driver graciously offered to go back to the restaurant, pickup a new order and drop it off to us for free -- he even included a free order of naan. Truly amazing service and food -- we'll be ordering again! read more

Usually Yelp is nigh infallible when it comes to restaurant ratings but I guess even they have an occasional miss. Our visit was definitely more peasant than royal. Decor is sparse and cheap feeling while the overall atmosphere is unwelcoming. The food on the buffet was average with no real standouts. On our first trip up there was no naan so we asked for some. About ten minutes later they brought out 4 quarters for us and put 4 on the buffet. That was the last naan we saw. I did not see them refill the buffet items once during our visit. The proprietor spent most of our meal on his cellphone having a loud speakerphone conversation with BGE about bill payment. There are much better Indian restaurants in Baltimore. read more

Royal Kitchen - First plate - Indian Near Me - Cockeysville, Maryland

We ordered a large set of dishes for takeout tonight. The fried vegetable pakoras and the fried cauliflower appetizers were very good. The Dahl tadka was thick and flavorful. The aloo gobi was ok but not well spiced. The okra was unusual in a tomato sauce. The chicken saag was very good, big chunks of chicken in a smooth processed spinach sauce. The goat curry was nice with moderate spice depth. We wish they would offer a choice of medium cayenne pepper hot (addition to mild, hot, and extra hot). The chaotic set food the cauliflower stuffed paratha was excellent! read more

We moved to Towson about two years ago and have yet to find our go-to Indian restaurant. Our search continues. My wife ordered the lamb korma and I ordered the chicken korma. It wasn't the most flavorful korma. It was ok but I had to add some spices to it. Even the onion kulcha lacked flavor. It was ok but not good enough to order from again. read more

Sunday means buffet. Had the jones for Indian and my honey and I wanted to give Royal Kitchen a try. We arrived about 40 minutes prior to the end of the lunch shift and we both decided buffet. A very decent spread of favorites like spinach pakora, lamb korma, chili chicken, chicken tikka masala, naan, "puffy bread", chicken fried rice, basmati rice, tandoori chicken and kabob meats and veggies among other things. The food was delicious and satisfying. Service? Well, the staff did keep our water glasses full. That, in itself, is worth the full tip. And the ambiance is very soothing. RK was well worth a try in a zip code with many Indian options with yet another just opening... Amazing. We liked RK and recommend to the yelp community. read more

One of the best buffets in the area for those who like it mild. Royal Kitchen offers a ton of delicious Indian foods from tikka malsala, paneers, vindaloo, and every other buffet staple. The food was lacking the intense heat that one might be accustomed to in standard Indian food, which is good if you have a more sensitive palette but not so much if you're looking for something hotter. I would have loved for a better heat variety. Some of the dishes I sampled were firsts for me, with items resembling more Asian inspirations. Those were the real treats. A minor note is that the naan, while plentiful, was a bit too dry, though the other starch side dishes were superb. Royal Kitchen could turn up the spice a bit, but makes up for it in variety and other flavors. read more

I enjoyed my meal and will go back. What you would expect from an Indian restaurant in the U.S. We ordered pretty standard fare: Tikka Masala, Korma, and Aloo Gobi. The Cauliflower in the Aloo Gobi was perfect - not underdone and not mushy. Each dish was tasty. Naan was enjoyable. read more

We love, love Indian food and were excited to try a new place. Never ever have I had bland Indian food. Nothing, and we had several dishes, nothing had any taste - zero. We were very disappointed. No flavor. read more

This is a nice local Indian restaurant to try. I have been to many Indian restaurants and they all have their own spin on each dish. I love Vegetable Biryani, so that's what I got here. It's a great portion and has a great mix of vegetables in it. It's good... not my favorite biryani, but definately worth trying and have had it twice at this location. We also tried the Vegetable MoMo which are similar to steamed dumplings filled with some minced up vegetables and spices. The dumplings were very soft... kind of a weird consistency. However, the veggies on the inside with spices were good and the dipping sauce was good. The MoMo was also a good portion size. The service is great and a friendly staff. The atmosphere is relaxing and they had some soft music playing. While they do not serve alcohol, it is BYOB. This was our second visit to this restaurant. I would definately go back to try something new. read more

Awesome experience! Did the Sunday buffet. Delicious food (I had chicken and goat curries). Fresh naan brought to the table. Great service and great price. Will definitely go back again. read more

Perfect place to stop for a quick lunch if traveling down I-83. The Sunday lunch buffet was under $10. Buffet options were plentiful and quality was on par with the Indian buffet we like at home. Service from the waiter was friendly and prompt. We left very satisfied and are likely to return on the way to my sister's house, which is an hour and a half north. read more

Ordered veggie Hakka noodle. Very disappointed! 1) Very very salty; 2) tasted weird ; seemed noodles were added to rice pulao preparations , 3) veggies soggy, no texture & over cooked. 4) don't order this dish!! read more

The food is fresh and tasty, but if you come here you better plan ahead. It took us ONE HOUR to get our food! Yes, the food is cooked to order, but this was entirely too long! Also, I had to ask our waitress three times for our coke and ice tea before FINALLY getting it halfway through the meal! HORRIBLE service! The portions are smaller than other Indian restaurants in the area. The food is tasty and fresh. We ordered garlic naan (which was better than others), chicken tikka marsala (not as spicy as others and smaller portion), chicken tikka kabobs (mostly onions, not much meat, smaller portion than others). So, given the lackluster service and smaller portions, I don't understand such high ratings. I would give them one more try, but given it was a Friday night with only THREE tables, the service was below what diners should expect. read more

This establishment has a hostile attitude towards non chinese people. I was ignored by one of the worker, and she helped the person behind me. When I asked if he was here before me , he said first he was . Then he said " I didn't see you". What a bunch of selfish, rude people. I will never recommend this establishment . The quality is less and so is it size. So sad for a place that has been here TOO long read more

..if you are around definitely try the food here .....Had good tasting Tama Ali bodi ( bamboo blakeyed peas and potatoes ) in a buffet first time in any buffet hands down ... The owner Mr Kamal is very passionate about the food he cooks and serves and u can tastes it in his food ... Even the spinach pokada tasted good which for Ani Indian/Nepali buffet are always a miss ..the sound of music in the restaurant just settles you in a warm aroma of homey tasting food ... Simon our server was the cherry of our cake..he is just always quick to fill up our water and check on us .. experience like these just make ur tummy and hearts warm and cozy ... read more

Best Indian food in the area. I have been to "high end" more expensive Indian places in the Baltimore area and they do not compare to Royal Kitchen. They have some of the BEST chana masala I have ever had and my mom LOVES the palak paneer. Excellent service. Great food. Highly recommend read more

Staff was very helpful in ordering. Food was excellent. Chicken must have been hand trimmed. Loved every bite.

I love this restaurant. As a vegetarian I feel blessed. Indian cuisine is very vegetarian friendly. I can walk into any Indian buffet and know that I will be well fed. Baltimore has an embarrassment of riches - this city boasts many fine Indian establishments. Too many to name. Royal Kitchen has only been around for a year or so. I've been there at least five or six times in the last few weeks; every time I have been so impressed with their lunch buffet. I am thrilled with their food and their service and I plan on coming back here every chance I get! this restaurant is a Baltimore treasure! read more

This is one of the best Nepali food in town so far, every single dish in their menu worth it, the starters and appetizers are yummy, you must try their vindaloo Curry and beryani chicken , it's cooked to perfection !!!! This is A++++ restaurant read more

Ordered food approximately 1 hour prior to restaurant closing, restaurant canceled order without notice. Restaurant closed left me unable to order Indian food elsewhere. I will order from Cafe Spice or Mint Leaf next time as the food is much better there and the portion sizes are more substantial. read more

Food was ok but the owner was confrontational and would not honor his own coupon. Not interested in going back, it's not that special.

To start off this place is better than few of the other Indian restaurants. We ordered a variety of foods. I found the quantity was good but was very disappointed with the fish curry dish, there were barely any pieces of fish for a dish they are charging $17 and the preparation was also not very good. I am probably never going to order seafood/fish here. Other than that it was very good. The chicken sekuwa was soft and yummy, full of flavors. The chilli chicken was also very good. read more

After losing faith in another very popular local Indian restaurant, I resorted to making my own. This is satisfying, but time consuming and not always practical. After finding RK on yelp, we decided to try it out. 1) you can order online! 2) they deliver within 5 miles We ordered the same items we ordered from the other place. The portion sizes are equivocal, the food flavor was tasty with enough heat and delivered hot. The naan varieties are good size and perfectly chewy. Overall, I think we have a winner. The key will be if the food taste the same the next time we order. I highly recommend trying them out. read more

Had the lamb tiki Marsala (medium spice) and paid almost $17.00 for 7 chunks of lamb in my Marsala .... yes I counted and I'm disappointed cuz I was looking forward to the lamb especially I don't think I'm to going to come back for the simple fact that It just doesn't seem worth the money spent. The flavoring wasn't spicy at all but I think that had something to do with the spice level I picked. It had a bit of a sweet taste to the Marsala wasn't completely bad but defiantly not worth what I paid. read more
