Wednesday vegan lunch buffet ❤️ - Edit
A couple times a month I bring some colleagues for their Wednesday lunch buffet. The only things that aren't vegan are toppings, but everything is labeled. Great selection of entrees and desserts.

Great food, lots of vegan options! - Edit
This place is amazing. My girlfriend is from India and she says the dishes here are very authentic. My favorites are Amma's special Dal, Tandoori Roti (must try), Aloo Paratha, dosa, Idli Sambhar, and Aloo Gobi. So many others are good, too. You won't be sorry if you like Indian food.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Menu is very clearly marked, Everything is good!
Cons: Lots of oil in certain dishes, if that matters

5-star Food; 2-star service - Edit
The food was excellent. They made a vegan Aloo Saag (my favorite dish) for me. It was delicious and spicy, just how I like it. Chili Gobi and Gobi Manchurian were both delicious! Veg Samosas and Poori - excellent!
Read moreAll of the food was amazing, but the service was very lackluster and they were quite indifferent to any issues that arose. All in all, I'd return if in the area again because the food was just that great.

Friendly Owner, and Staff.

Varied Vegan Options - Edit
I enjoyed my experience. The venue has ample family seating and varied options in the buffet. I really like that the vegan options were clearly labeled. The only issue that I had is that some of the food was not as warm as I wanted it to be.

Very vegan friendly - fast and good tasting Indian buffet - Edit
We had the lunch buffet which included masala dosas. Everything on the buffet that was vegan was labeled as such; however, the server said sometimes mistakes are made and he encouraged us to ask him. He then double checked everything and told us it was all correct.
Read moreThe food itself was very good and everything was fairly mild (coming from someone who loves spicy).
This is a fairly large restaurant for a vegetarian place with about 20 tables. It left a little to be desired in terms of how clean it was. It was ok for me but my wife was a bit grossed out by the state of the bathroom which she said was sticky.
Pros: lots of vegan options, delicious, quick lunch
Cons: ladies bathroom was sticky

Great southern Indian cuisine with many vegan options. Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly. He told us on Wednesdays at lunch they do an entirely vegan buffet. Will definitely return here again.

A paradise for vegetarian foody - Edit
I was much delighted to find a vegetarian restaurant near mason. My husband and I relished lunch buffet on a friday. We didn't expect much crowd on a weekday but most of the tables were occupied! There was fresh food, good service, clean crockery and very nice aroma all around. Variety of food and desserts won our hearts. For $8.99, lunch buffet was more than a delight. I am looking forward to visit Amma's kitchen soon. This time on weekend to enjoy indian-chat!

tasty vegan options - Edit
Once I talked to a staff member and discovered that the majority of the buffet options were vegan, I was very happy. I tried everything [vegan] and was very happy. I am a big fan of South Indian food like this.
Read moreThe place is medium sized, with a nice, but not exceptional ambiance. I got the impression that lunch (and possibly dinner) is buffet-only (only 9$!), FYI. Only a few things were marked as vegan, but many more things were vegan than were labeled as such - be sure to ask the staff.
I ate here on Friday, June 20 (lunch) with my partner and her friend [non-vegans]; we all enjoyed our meal.
Pros: good vegan options, tasty, inexpensive
Cons: vegan items may not be labeled

pretty good buffet - Edit
I love indian food. This buffet is not even close to the best buffet I have had but it was okay. I was disappointed in the breads, they were kind of dried out and seemed like they had been sitting there too long. And the entrees were also disappointing because my favorites were missing in action. Where were the potatoes? Where were the chana? But the dishes that were there were still good and flavorful. I have to say the rice had dried out too and there were crunchy bits. I think the main problem was that there isn't enough business and we arrived late in the buffet service. So I do plan to go back and try again but go earlier. I was pretty excited by the soups, they were right on! Service was great. Please do try this place. I think if more people go there the probs I mentioned will resolve. They have a vegan buffet once a week. The outside of the place looks kind of uninviting but the inside is fine.
Read morePros: 100% vegeterian, friendly staff, flavorful
Cons: not enough business, neighborhood
