Ordered twice from this place . First time biryani was great which was the reason I reordered . Pakoras were soggy. Next time I preferred fish pakoras , same situation, soggy and very poor packaging ( in a bag which could be the reason they were soggy) . Second time biryani just had 2-3 pieces of chicken. Lost my money and time .

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I’ve had my fair share of Indian food back home, and I didn’t think anything could compare, until now. It was almost as if I were there. Every bite reminded me of why I love Indian cuisine, and the naan was soft, warm, and fresh from the oven. Honestly, it might even rival my hometown favorite. I left full and happy.

First things first.. Most Indian restaurants, for that matter most ethnic eateries tend to Americanize their cuisine so much that it is heavy on fats and creams. The thing about India garden is they cook food just like back home in the splendor that I come from, India. First visit to India garden was magical, their hospitality, the ambience of the place(you will forget that you are eating in the US of A. Quaint, simple and inviting. I rarely review anything but I am compelled to by our great experience of dinner there. We were a dozen who planned our dinner get together poorly and didn't have enough time to relaxingly eat. But the family that runs the restaurant made us feel like family. We didn't even feel like we were in a restaurant. Thank you Singhji, thank you the three generation that were running the business for that kind of service only Panjabis are capable of, especially the Sikhs are good at... The young man, the grand parents, an uncle (possibly) were so totally involved in making us comfortable and enjoy the great food unlike in any restaurant... They stayed back beyond their business hours just so they could feed us despite our poor planning... A hundred thanks to you Sardarji May they be blessed...
