    Jalebi

    My husband and I were celebrating Diwali at home this year and seeing family later... but neither of us really wanted to cook. Star came to the rescue! We ordered ahead for take out and got the Gobi 65 biryani and malai kofta. We got to the restaurant around the time given for our food to be ready. There was a little bit of a wait once we got there, but the place was pretty busy and it was a holiday - all of the staff was clearly working very hard. As we were leaving with our food, they asked us to wait to make sure we got some complimentary desserts due to it being Diwali! They gave us a box of some Jalebi. Thank you, Star! The food was so good! Neither of us had had the gobi 65 biryani before and it was delicious. I loved the huge chunks of cooked cauliflower 65! The malai kofta was tasty as well - the kofta were nice and soft and the gravy was creamy and rich. The Jalebi were thick and juicy! The whole meal was scrumptious and there was even enough for some leftover lunch!

    For Diwali, we picked up some takeout dinner from Star India. Growing up in an Indian household where homemade Indian food was the norm, I was very impressed with the quality of Star. And while the quality would've been better in the restaurant, I was still pleased with how it all held up in to-go boxes. Definitely check out Star if you're looking for something new and flavorful. And while they do have non-vegetarian options, check out their vegetarian entrées - you will be pleased and surprised at how easy vegetarianism can be!

    Once again back at Star Indian tonight. Cold 28 degrees outside tonight so delicious, comforting Indian food was needed. From the bullet naan to the spicy lamb vindaloo and sizzling chicken it was all so good! My favorite spot in Omaha !!!!

    My fiancé and I just received this nice delivery from one of his friends who is overseas. We have never tried or had Indian food before so this was a first and let me just say so far it is delicious. Of course we still have to take a few more bites since this amazing cuisine was delivered at 9pm way past our dinner time, so this review will get an update soon. Update! 10/10!!!! If anyone ever tries this I recommend dipping the garlic naan into the chicken masala. It may not be the right way to do it, but boy was it tasty!!

    Could not recommend this place more! Very authentic ambiance and the food was soo good! I'm not a huge spicy person but they adjust the spice level to your liking on a 1-10 scale! The waitstaff was very helpful in picking a menu item and even brought us a complimentary desert! Try the mango lassi (you'll be in heaven)

    I got takeout from here after many people recommended it. I feel like the curries overall had good flavor, but did not have enough spice. I typically don't eat too much spice either, but I felt like I could mainly just taste the creaminess, rather than the other spices/kick that typically Indian food has (I am Indian). There was a good amount of meat in the curries, which was appreciated.

    We wanted to try another Indian cuisine spot in Omaha. This place is highly rated - and rightfully so! It smells amazing right when you walk in. The ambiance is great. Cool bubble tank and light fixtures. We got sat immediately. We got convinced to order some samosas (not pictured). They were delicious. The sauces were awesome, too! Our dishes of chicken korma and chicken tikka masala were some of the best we've had in Omaha. We got them relatively spicy, and the kick was good! 100% our new go-to spot for Indian food!

    Oil dipped veggie noodles!!
    Piyali S.

    We ordered veg noodles and chicken noodles. The food was not good at all. The chicken noodles was too salty may be they put the salt twice. Just had to trash that. And the veggie noodles were dipped in oil. Just a few carrots and spring onions and may be a tiny green bell pepper- thats it!! While placing the order I mentioned them that my kid will eat the chicken noodle, so please be extra careful! But they just put too much salt randomly!!! We have tried their food before they were good. I have attached the photos of today's order of veggie noodles. The chicken noodle - we had to put it in the trash!! Just see how people can serve this type of food when we paid exact amount they asked for. Terrible experience.

    Star is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Omaha. Each time I have ever gone, the service is some of the best I have ever had. The food is absolutely incredible! From the fluffy, buttery, garlic naan to my flavorful and rich butter chicken. You can't really go wrong here! There are pretty lights through the dining area and bar. There are lots of comfy booths and there's quite a bit of seating options! I really love Star and cannot recommend it enough. It is amazing!

    May be my new favorite spot for Indian food in Omaha. Service was outstanding, price point excellent and the food was delicious. I opted for a vegetarian option and we ordered a side of garlic naan. I will be back! It was great to see how busy they were on a recent Sunday night

    The food was amazing. They have a ton of vegan and vegetarian options. Complimentary appetizer of papadum with sauces. We got the vegetable madras and kafta and both dishes were amazing. They even gave us a complimentary dessert. :-) The staff was very friendly and the inside is very homey and cozy. Definitely will be going back, best Indian food I've had in Omaha.

    I was seriously craving Indian food while visiting Omaha during Memorial Day weekend, and luckily,…read moreKarnali was the only Indian restaurant open nearby that day. We reached the restaurant around 3:30 - 4 PM for a late lunch, and there were a few people dining inside. The restaurant was very clean, the tables were well arranged, and the Indian music playing in the background gave the place a nice cozy vibe. We started with the tandoori chicken and then ordered garlic naan, butter chicken, and two chais for the main meal. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, but it was different from the typical restaurant-style tandoori chicken. It tasted more homemade with regular spices, without the bright red color or smoky restaurant flavor. Still, it was really good. The best part of the meal was actually the sauce served with the chicken. It tasted like a spicy tomato-onion gravy, almost similar to butter chicken sauce, and honestly, I wish the butter chicken we took later had been cooked in that same sauce because it was delicious. The butter chicken was tasty overall - rich and creamy, though the garlic naan could have been better. The naan felt a little too dry and could have used more butter. The chai at the end was ok because it had a bit too much spice and tasted more milky than tea. The service was decent as well. The server was friendly, but while taking our order he wasn't writing anything down and had to ask us to repeat a few things, so that was a little awkward. The food arrived in about 10 minutes, which was pretty quick. One thing to note is that we had to place the chai order along with the food because the server mentioned it takes around 15 minutes or more to prepare. I did feel that the pricing was slightly higher compared to the quality and portion sizes. The tandoori chicken was around $17 ,the butter chicken was about $19 and the Naans $4 each and chais were around $4 each, so the total came close to $55 + w tax or more. Personally, I don't think the food completely matched the pricing and was mediocre. Overall, I had a decent experience and really appreciate that they were open on Memorial Day because they definitely satisfied my Indian food craving. I would definitely recommend trying the tandoori chicken appetizer, especially with the sauce they serve alongside it. I would give the restaurant a solid 3 out of 5 stars.

It was a Thursday evening and not very busy. Only two other tables when we were there which really surprised me after tasting the food. They started out with the complimentary papadam with two different sauces a mint chutney and a brown sauce not sure what it is but both great. We started off with the naan bread basket and an another garlic cheese naan definitely didn't need more than the bread basket was a very large portion to split. All were very tasty the garlic was my favorite. I had the Karnali combo biryani which was awesome had the right heat I asked for spice wise and good amount of all the different meats. My wife got the mango masala which she really enjoyed and isn't always the biggest Indian food fan but she ate hers and ate the leftovers the next day as well. My aunt had chicken korma which she raved about as well. My mother tried the malai kofta she had only tried Indian food once many years ago and this experience confirmed she's not a fan and has a bad taste palette haha. I really enjoyed this dish as well and was happy to have the leftovers the next couple days. We ordered her some chicken tenders from the kids menu but those also had some seasonings more cumin I'd say and others that she didn't enjoy but our 14 month old really enjoyed. So if you have a very picky eater maybe go with one of the other kids options. The white creamy sauce that came with my biryani was also bursting with flavor and had a great cooling sensation. The man who served our table was very friendly and even played peek a boo with our baby from the register area. Place had a nice vibe and was very clean bathrooms included. Definitely will be back and you should go check out this spot!

    To be honest, I noticed this restaurant a couple years ago, but was dissuaded from trying it…read morebecause of the upkeep of the surrounding area. That was unfortunate. After a pop-up ad on DoorDash recently, I decided to look at the menu and was very excited to try them out. After running a couple errands, I decided to treat myself to take out, was in the area, and decided to take a chance. I'm glad I did!! Now, as a vegetarian, I love Indian food because there are so many options for me. There is one curry that I love but is generally only offered on chicken, sometimes it can be found with shrimp, but Maharaja offers all their curries with your choice of protein!!! That means I can get my sour sorrel leaf curry with either my choice of paneer cheese or they even offer tofu!!! I've never seen an Indian restaurant that offered tofu. Not only that - but when I asked about the medium spice level, the young lady waved her hand and said ehhh medium. I got spicy. I like spicy. This is truly spicy.!!! I'm in heaven!!! And there's a lot of paneer chunks in the curry. The race that comes with it is a fragrant rice instead of just a plain rice, which is nice. I also got the mixed basket Naan. The naan is interesting. It's like a very large, very thick tortilla - almost like a pizza dough texture. Not the light and airy from a super hot tandoori. Delicious but not the usual naan that I'm used to. The fruit naan made me happy because it didn't have the maraschino cherries that most of the restaurants seem to use. For my appetizer of course I got Samosa. The pastry is wonderful even after sitting and getting to room temperature. It's still a lovely texture. The potatoes inside are a little bit more mashed than I would like, but the flavor is amazing. I thought the cilantro-chutney sauce would be disappointing, but I was pleasantly surprised on that as well. Even though it looked thin and creamy, it actually had a lot of flavor, it was quite spicy, and had a nice hit of citrus that went very nicely with the samosas. Maharaja one of those hole in the wall gems!!!!

Everything was spiced beautifully and a lot of options can be made gluten free. My favorite bite was the mysore masala dosa and the paneer tikka masala. Everything was spiced beautifully. We got the level 3 for most items, and a couple 2's as well. I love spice, but I don't like when food is too spicy I can't enjoy it. This was a good happy point for me. I loved how there were so many options that were gluten free that I could enjoy as well. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side and a seat yourself sort of feel. We went around lunch time and got serviced in a timely manner. They did seem a bit understaffed, so give them a little grace went it comes to service. Overall, definitely a place I would go back to!

The Chicken Pulav arrived in a generous portion with beautifully cooked long grain basmati rice. The rice was fluffy, aromatic, and infused with warm spices without being overly heavy. The chicken was tender and well seasoned, blending nicely with the fragrant rice. A squeeze of lime added a bright freshness that helped balance the richness of the dish. The portion was easily large enough to share or enjoy as leftovers the next day. The Chicken Hariyali was the standout dish of the meal. The chicken pieces were coated in a vibrant green herb-based sauce packed with flavors of cilantro, mint, and spices. The chicken remained juicy and tender, while the sauce delivered a fresh, savory flavor profile that was both unique and satisfying. The dish paired exceptionally well with the biryani, creating a great balance between aromatic rice and rich, herbaceous chicken. The presentation of both dishes was appealing, with fresh garnishes and thoughtful plating. Portions were generous, making the meal feel like a good value. The combination of fragrant spices, tender chicken, and fresh herbs showcased the kitchen's attention to flavor and authenticity. Overall, Astoria delivered a delicious meal with standout flavors and generous portions. If you're visiting, I highly recommend ordering the Chicken Hariyali alongside the Chicken Pulav the two complement each other perfectly.

We were welcomed with a plate of crispy and spicy papadums while we waited for our order. It didn't take long, and the chicken tandoori came first on a sizzling hot cast iron plate. The tender, spicy and perfectly salted, my friend commented that he doesn't usually like chicken, but if all chicken was as tasty as this one, he might just change his mind. Their goat Biryani totally knocks it out of the park. The flavor of the rice is a perfect, spicy, complex blend. And texture is fluffy and each grain is whole and tender. The aroma and taste of the goat infuses every grain. This is one of the best Hydrabadi biryanis I've had in the USA. The garlic naan is pillowy, and soft and chewy perfection. The perfect thing to use to soak up the spicy tomato vindaloo chicken. Wonderful service, and comfortable seats make this a truly awesome find. Definitely a 5-star experience, and worth a drive to get to if you like real Indian food.
