Lotus Cuisine of India nails it with a pristine space, attentive service, and tandoori chicken that'll make you order seconds. The open kitchen and attached market (spices, rice, rugs) add a nice touch. The tandoori chicken stole the show. Perfect char on the outside, juicy bone-in meat inside. Paired beautifully with the garlic naan and paratha. The pani puri was solid though a bit sweet, and my wife's coconut chicken curry and our aloo gobi were well-executed. Her gluten-free samosa hit the mark too. When my wife mentioned her allergies, the manager personally came out to confirm they could accommodate everything. Water stayed filled, timing was smooth, and the staff genuinely cared. Everything could use a touch more salt, likely keeping it mild for the local crowd. At over $100 for two, it's pricier than expected, but the quality mostly justifies it. Great spot if you're gluten-free, dairy-free, or have food allergies. Perfect for date night or family dinners. Order the tandoori chicken and don't skip the breads.

We really felt welcomed when we entered Lotus Cuisine of India on Sunday for a late-afternoon lunch. The restaurant is full of color and we could hear sitar music playing when we went through the door. The gentleman seating us was friendly and welcoming. We looked over the menu and decided to start with a variety pack of Naan (Garlic & Cilantro, Keema, and Paneer) and a Taj Mahal Beer. The naan came with some sauces. We shared Lamb Biriyani and Saag Paneer. My favorite was the Saag Paneer. Food was delicious and hit every spot just right. I used the women’s restroom and was surprised that it was so clean. Surprised because it was not just clean but immaculate. It looked as if it was newly constructed. We appreciated the team work and how they all joined in to help at the table. Though we noticed the contrast between the younger gentlemen and the older man. The younger men seemed so serious and perhaps not pleased to be there. All in all, the pride this family restaurant has is transparent and the steps they take to make us have a positive dining experience is appreciated. Oh and if you think of it - head to the back of the restaurant because you will find a market. I will be back to shop there. We were very glad to have chosen Lotus Cuisine. Thank you, happy feasting, and namaste.

This is absolutely delicious! Rich and flavorful food variety, naan is "perfectly fluffy and soft", all dishes are balanced combination of ingredients and spices.
