The food was excellent, the Nepali curry was great much tomato flavor than your Indian curry. I also love the drumsticks, it has a little sweet flavor to it. The dumplings were with spicy sweet sauce, we didn't try too hot level, but it was spicy enough. The service was excellent. The restaurant is nice and clean, we came for earlier dinner, so we don't know how busy it will look like. But I will come back to try other dishes!! read more

Delicious food! I'm not a connoisseur of Indian food I just know what I like. We had the Szechuan Momo's at a 5 spice level (vegetarian). So flavorful with good kick. Biryani with goat and biryani with lamb. Both delicious. Butter naan. Yum. Service was absolutely the best. Our server walked us through the menu with patience and the recommendations were on point. Easy access with parking right in front but there's plenty of parking as it's located in the shopping plaza where Kohls used to be in university area. The next time I'm getting Indian I'm coming here! read more

We were actually trying to find another place when we stumbled on Sarangi. What a pleasant surprise this was. The decor inside was very warm & cozy. Service was very good & attentive. If you like momos & spice, the momos in Szechuan sauce was very good. I appreciate that they gave you a choice of heat levels from 1(very mild) to 10 (very spicy). Both our entrees had just the right amount of heat for our tastes & they were both served with a generous amount of basmati rice. The garlic naan was the perfect accompaniment to soak up all the delicious sauces. read more

Passing through Charlotte, I had to stop and try my favorite cuisine. Oh man, this place is absolute fire!!! We were seated promptly and got impeccable service. I wanted to try everything but I got more than I could handle as is! The chili garlic naan was amazing! I loved the momo; they have a lot of flavor and great texture. The tikka masala and korma are actually some of the best I have ever had. Everything here was an absolute delight. The next time I stop through Charlotte, this place is a must!! read more

My husband and I wanted to find a new Indian restaurant that served thali lunch plates, and I'm glad we found Sarangi! Sarangi is located at one end of a shopping center off Tryon in University that includes a Starbucks, Food Lion, and Jersey Mike's. Sarangi has a simple decor, with booths and tables for seating. They offer thali plates for lunch on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. The veg thali is $12.99, and the meat thali is $14.99. There are several options for your main dish, plus every thali comes standard with butter naan, basmati rice, daal, achar, a side (such as veggie pakora, papad, or aloo tiki), and gulab jamun for dessert. I tried the paneer tikka masala, and my husband had the chicken korma. We were astonished when our thalis arrived - the trays are HUGE! They include two portions of the main entree, four quarters of naan, a sizable bowl of rice, and nice-sized portions of the daal, achar (we used for dipping the pakora), and one gulab jamun. My medium-spiced paneer tikka masala was spicier than the usual medium. My husband's hot chicken korma was very spicy. I suspect other places give us Americanized spice levels. Everything was absolutely delicious. I had enough to bring some leftovers home, but my husband cleared his plate. If I had one complaint, it would be the music playing on the televisions. Next time, we'll sit far away from the TVs. Regardless, we can't wait to return! read more

Sarangi - traditional goat curry and garlic naan - Indian Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I entreated my husband to decide on the restaurant for a change and he saw this restaurant as I searched on YELP! Needless to say we wound up at Sarangi. Indian food has disappointed in the past so I was reluctant but really wanted to give it a chance. The food was delicious and the restaurant which had just opened at 5p anxiously beckoned us in with the welcoming aromatics of Southeast Asia. The gentleman that greeted us was very nice as was everyone that we encountered. I felt like we were in Nepal. That was thee best Indian cuisine I've ever had. The place was bustling with patrons as we were finishing our meal and we knew why. Service was prompt. The food was so good. The atmosphere was welcoming. read more

Fantastic Nepali authentic food place. The Taste of Nepali food was so delicious here. Service was very kind and helpful to find my taste of food. Just make sure what range of spice you want. Overall ambiance was very delightful. I highly recommend this place to visit for their delicious warm Nepali authentic tasty dishes. Especially their chicken momo. I don't have picture because it was so delicious that I had already and thought later to review this place. Lol! Atlast! I would say everything I Love it! You guys rock. read more

Sarangi - Naan and chicken curry - Indian Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Definitely not the most beautifully decorated place, but that is usually a good sign for Indian/Nepalese food places! The service was a little bit slow and sometimes we had to call over the waiter to get us water etc. but it was made up for by how amazing the food was. I highly recommend the momos! I got chicken momos and the sesame chutney with it was so smooth and flavorful! I also got the chicken hakka noodles which were another big hit! The Nepalese chicken curry and Indian chicken biryani were nothing I had not tried before, but still satisfied my craving and since I order so many dishes and I had lot left over for the next day! I definitely would do take out from here next time! Parking is in the strip mall and easy to access! Also if you like their FB Page they give you 10% off!!! read more

Sarangi - Chicken Hakka Noodles Chicken Biryani Chicken Curry Rice - Indian Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I really liked this place! More authentic than Botiwala. We ordered the sizzler momo as an appetizer it was tasty; a perfect blend of spicy and savory. I highly recommend it for an appetizer. It was so good it was gone before I could take a picture of it. The butter chicken and tiki masala were good. The cheese naan was the absolute best. It tasted like a special pizza. We also ordered a mango lassi. The service was good. The server helped us explain the menu since it was a little overwhelming because of all the options. It is beautifully decorated and clean. I will definitely be coming here again. read more

This was our first time trying Sarangi and we loved it! We ordered carry out and the service was incredible and our food was hot when we picked it up.

Was looking for a good quality Indian place since moving from Chicago and I found it, Sarangi! Had dinner tonight, started with Chicken sizzler MoMo (medium spice), Wow that was good and spicy! Might go for the mild next time ha! My wife ordered a Mango Lassi to help cool things down. I ordered my favorite Taj Mahal. We then split Chicken Tikki Masala, basmati rice and one butter naan. The naan was like none other than I had in Chicago, this was light, fluffy and very tasty. The owner mentioned they make every from scratch. Quality was top notch! The ambiance is fine, nothing special, but adequate. We will definitely be back to either eat in or take out, the food is the star! read more

Great service and the food was delicious. We tried Tom Kha soup, Chicken lollipops and a coconut curry with shrimp. We will definitely be back. read more

The experience was extremely disappointing. We paid $87 for food that was well below standard. Even the water glasses had a strong smell of mosquito repellent (and I'm not exaggerating). The chicken and vegetable momos both tasted odd and stale--we each took one bite and left the rest. We also ordered chole bhature, which was served with onions and chilies; the onions were dry, stale, and even had visible fungus. The person serving us, who appeared to be a student, had to be told why the onions needed to be replaced. No wonder this restaurant has pretty much all positions open !! we did not create fuss or scene coz it was one elderly guy running around doing the service but it was a rip off n not worth it !! read more

The food was OUTSTANDING! We love Indian food but the Nepali fusion items coupled with the Indian and Szechuan offerings make this restaurant uniquely representative of so many distinct and savory styles of fare. The option to choose your spice level from 1-10 allowed me to enjoy anything I wanted with the amount of spice suitable for me to enjoy. read more

Some of the best curry around! The spinach curry was excellent along with the naan. very friendly staff and clean eatery.

Great balanced food. Amazing vegetarian options. Great momos. You should try them. Not one dish we ordered was below 4 stars out of 5. Great service. The owner made us feel like we were super guests. Accommodated our small requests. Ambience is as good as it gets for a good Indian restaurant. No noise. It was great eating there. read more

delicious food and clean environment! the waiter/owner are all so helpful and kind, making the experience even better! we came on a sunday for lunch with a group of 11 and they were able to seat us right away. all of us love our food, even those who was trying this kind of cuisine for the first time. their garlic naan is very garlicky and one order comes with 4 naan. there are so many options on the menu, looking forward to trying more in the future. read more

Run don't walk to Sarangi. The flavor of the food is the best, don't skip the momo. The owner is ever friendly and very talkative. This adds to the experience in every way. There are special dishes you must order in advance and some weekend only items that I am keen to try for the first time. Please make your way out and support this business. The location has had a difficult history of many places coming and going and we don't want to lose this gem! read more

Excellent flavors and great service. We went family style. Thank you for a delicious meal!

Service is HORRIBLE! Doesn't make it worth waiting for food. For a hole in the wall with lots of competition they need to hire more help.

WOW. I remember when this place was under a different name and I really enjoyed it back before the pandemic days. Recently moved back to the area and decided to try this place. Incredible! Our service was fantastic and the food absolutely to die for. The chicken momo chili was something new to us but was so delicious. The samosa chaat was fantastic. The garlic naan was perfectly garlicky, buttery, and crispy. The chicken biryani was out of this world good- the chicken was perfect and not at all dried out(as we've experienced at other places) 10/10 would recommend and this is our new local spot for Indian food! read more

Such a wonderful little Indian/Nepali spot. It's nothing to write home about as far as ambience goes but the food is tremendous! The server we had was super friendly.

Samosa chat is out of this world good. Gobi Manchurian was good but I ordered it Hot and I guess that thought that meant white American hot because it was at best medium. They had Tag and Flying Horse for their tall Indian beer options. I had never had Tag before and it was a fairly basic lager. They need to add a stronger option like Hayards 5000. The low point unfortunately was the momos. They explained that because they were fried, they were harder and tougher than the steamed ones. I explained however that these were like shoe leather and inedible. Prices are a bit higher than usual but they have a great sanitation score so I guess all in all it's worth another try. read more

I love international food but nothing compares to Indian food. I ordered their Goat Biryani and Chicken 65. First, the portions were so much that I was able ro share with my colleagues and take some home for dinner! Completely a win! Secondly, the food was amazing. It was my colleagues first time eating Indian food and Goat Biryani and he loved it (minus the spicy kevel I added lol). The goat was tender but the rice was a lil mushy for my liking. I'll be back! read more

The hospitality here is incredible. The food is so good, they have an amazing menu to order from. They just got a liquor license so they are building up their shelf. They are legit the most down to earth team I've seen. They were so accommodating. Rod was our server and legit prob the sweetest soul I've come by in life. We closed the place down the food was so good. I felt like I was eating at someone's mother's house. I haven't eaten food that good out a restaurant for a while. This is a must go. read more

Great food and great service, lots of choices, would come again when back in town Great price very reasonable read more

Nothing special here. The high raiting is due to the 10% off offer. I waited over 1.25 hours for my food and saw others arrive order, eat and leave before so hot my food. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and Peshawar for naan. I've had much better than this. I ordered medium spice and had none. The tomato flavoring was a bit too heavy in my opinion. The naan was heavy and not very flavorful. read more

We had a nice lunch here while on the road from Cary to Atlanta. There is a nice collection of street-food appetizers: I had mango papdi chaat which was new for me, as well as was a nice appetizer, as well as momo sizzling chicken dumplings with chili. The choices were mild, medium and spicy, and I decided not to risk choosing spicy -- turns out to have been good choice, because medium was at the edge of what I could handle. My wife enjoyed the hakka noodles. And the mango lassi was rich and very flavorful. read more

We were craving for Indian food so we searched nearby and came across Sarangi. We made a reservation before so our table was ready when we went for the dinner. The server came with a menu and from the menu we decided to order Hakka Noodles, Vegetable Steamed Chilli Momos, Hara Bhara Kabab, Dahi Puri Chaat, Chicken Steamed Momos, Malai Chicken Kabab and Gulab Jamun. We had to wait for 10-15 minutes before our food started coming. The food that came out was delicious and tasty. Do try the momos here as they are amazing and delicious. The food was freshly made and it was tasty. The only drawback is the wait time as they prepare fresh and hot food sometimes it can be too much but it is worth it. read more

The service was amazing and the food was so good. I highly recommend it. I've been there a few times and it's never disappointed.

Hands down the best Indian food in Charlotte. At one time in my life, I thought I disliked Indian food due to one bad experience. Years ago, I tried it again and fell in love. My favorite spot changed hands and I have been looking for a new place ever since then. Sarangi is not only excellent, but better than anything I have had before - like so good that I didn't know it could be that good. Plus the gentleman working was very nice. When I go to new restaurants, I usually stick to items that are pretty common. Items that should be good or at least decent wherever they are served. For my first time at Sarangi, my husband and I selected Chicken 65, Aalo Gobi, Chana Masala, and garlic naan. The chicken 65 was perfectly cooked - great texture on the chicken and tossed in a creamy lush sauce. Chana Masala was very good as well with a nice complexity of spices. The Aalo Gobi was a real standout dish. The sauce/gravy was heavenly - especially on a piece of garlic naan. I already can't wait to go back and try some more of the menu. Hope this place sticks around!!! read more

Looking for some amazing Indian food? Sarangi is definitely the place to go! They food is just so damn good, I have visited this establishment on several occasions and it never disappoints. The service is good and the servers are there to help and guide you through the menu. Every time I go I try to get something new to eat. This paneer curry was so good and you have to make sure to get some fresh naan, is a match made in heaven. I also always wash it down with a delicious Indian brewed beer! So good I will be back for more, so don't sleep on this delicious restaurant! read more
