One of my favorite restaurants in Louisville. Food is always good. Portions are enough for leftovers. Server's are always friendly and knowledgeable. Price are pretty good as well.
Dak had gone down several months ago. A couple of visits and not good at all. Went today, the Great buffet is back. Not as hot as it could have been, but the food was superb. Flavors out of this world good. Chicken 65, Chicken Tikka were so good. But so was everything else. If you went some months ago and it wasn't good, it is now. Give it another try.
Great service, excellent food. Such a flavor burst with each bite of spices!!! Yummy!!
Went here for my birthday because I wanted to try new food and I got the chicken and rice and it was so good and so well seasoned my family loved it.
We went during buffet hours and loved the food. They have small buffet but what they have is very delicious. Food wasn't too spicy which it was great because I personally could enjoy the flavor of the food more. The owner was so nice and welcoming. They brought us very delicious drink for us to try for free, they said they will have it in their menu. It has pistachios, rose water, and some rose pedal on top, very delicious. Restaurant could use some more cleaning. Overall we enjoyed the food and had a great time. FYI, Buffet hours and price: Monday-Friday: 11am-2pm - $13.99 Sat and Sun: 12pm-2:30pm - $16.99
The food was very tasty. I have had better. No military discount. It looks like an old bbq restaurant converted into an Indian one. Their food was really good.
It's a bit of a sketchy shopping center, and the place wasn't pristine inside either, but you'll find some interesting food in such places, and this place had a wide menu. On the back of it was a picture denoting the various Indian states and which foods could be tied to which. I would have been happy ordering all sorts of vegetarian things, but wanting a light meal, I tried a dosa, which was thin and expertly made and came with a delicious assortment of sides, including sambar that I had to finish. My tea (a milk tea, which wasn't entirely clear when I ordered it) came with a bright cinnamon note. A tray of papadums was brought to tide me over, so I had another set of chutneys as well. There was no shortage of dynamism even in my small order, and I have no trouble imagining that the wonders continue the more you food you get.
