Provided by YP.comI went to this Indian Restaurant and realized how delicious indian food is. And thats all because of the good quality and good quantity food. Well, I am concerned to sit on the computer and write about it so you can imagine how good the food was. The service was EXCELLENT. NO WORDS.. Though it was busy saturday night but still It didn't took them much time to seat me so that was very impressing to me. If you do go there please try there chicken tikka masala, and veg. bhajis. This is the only place where I got the papdums in the starting with the two different kinds of chutneys. They were amazing as since we were starving of hunger so that relievd us a bit. The service and servers were also too good and also our order didn't took much time to come and the spices were as per our requirement.. dats amazing.I cant handle too much spice so it was good for my tummy. Naan was soo fresh and soft. Saag paneer was not too oily at all - good for my tummy again it was equally dilicious. I wish to come here everyday..
Go to this place once and try the food once. ITS WORTH IT! I AM HOOKED!!!!
whenever i go never feel like coming bak.....
dnt miss. try fast :)

Provided by YPmobileVery Poor taste for an Indian. If you are an Indian, you will never like it.very bad taste . Even an order of extremely spicy gravy was tasting very bad and had no spice at all. If you are not an Indian, you might like it. But indians, this restaurant is not for you, bad and by the way too costly too. Even a papad costs 3-4 dollars which is absurd. Biryani was the worst of all. Again for Indians - Pls STAY AWAY

Provided by YP.comRoyal India has a beautiful and elegant atmosphere. The naan is fantastic- fresh out of the oven. The chicken tikka is to die for! The brothers that own the restaurant are friendly, courteous, and remember you when you come back in- something very rare now-a-days. I love going there for a unique and delicious dinner or lunch!

On the recommendation of one of my daughter's teachers, we went to Royal India. I love Indian food and I really enjoyed their Indian food. Yes, they are the Best. I have to tell you that the only reason it is getting five stars is because I never enjoyed another restaurant as this one. The best part , they ask you how spicy you want your food; they give you a three-curry caddy with some crispy peppery cracker-like stuff which probably has a name but I don't know it; the ambiance is more to my taste; they have a wonderful; music played in the baground; the music isn't playing really loud also, feels gud to ears; and the food is

Provided by YP.comHaving been taken to this resteraunt by a close friend I didnt know what to expect. Now I cant stop from going back at least once a month. From the very aluring decor of the tables to the rainfall fountain I can not think of a better place to take friends or family. The staff are wonderful and helpful in answering all of your questions if this happens to be your first time enjoying Indian. The price of the food is worth the entire experience. This place is not for the casual dinner, I would recommend looking nice when setting foot into this establishment, but if you are looking to impress Royal India is the place to go. Though this restaurant doesn't has any specific requiremet for the outfits, i just enjoy every moment while going there..

Provided by YP.comMy family and I , celebrated my sisters birthday at the Best Indian Restaurant Royal India and we had a great time. I will have to say it wasn't very hard to get a table without reservations, as they accomodate everyone, though this place always seems to be PACKED! We walked in and didn't had to wait a lot, wihout reservations. Once we got a table it was AMAZING! The food had so much flavor and the staff was very nice! I would have to say try thy the mango lamb curry.... YUM!!
loved everything..

Provided by YP.comI give Royal India five stars… the other night I went to go eat with my wife and we order some samosa and coconut pineapple shrimp, our kind server brought it out to us and described are dishes in such a good way it made my teas buds jump, I was very much impressed by the presentation, the food just looked so great, I came back the next day and that nice young man was my sever again, I came in with some very important business partners and our sever was very helpful, with the wine list that we had a little to much to drink, but EVERYTHING was great the food is the best! The service was outstanding, I’m really happy with the Royal India visit and I’m always coming back!

Provided by YP.comI was apprehensive about trying Indian food at first, but I brought my friend in with me to try out royal india as we heard a lot and no doubt its THE BEST. Everything was excellent! The decor is alluring and waterfall is relaxing. The martini list was great, the visit is a must! We tried the paneer pakora for an appetizer and had the chicken tikka masala and yellow dal for dinner. We loved the food and our server was very helpful in guiding us in the right direction as far as food and drink chioces. I would recommend this place to anyone who has never tried Indian food and for those who are already big fans.
GREAT..

Provided by YP.comI am frequent eater at Royal India and I fell in love with it for its delicious Indian food and unique beautifully decorated Indian restaurant, cozy romantic seating. It has beautiful hanging chandelier, some hand carved wooden full bar, lots of custom stone work, beautiful arches you walk under to reach the waterfall and the best of all is very comfortable spacious seating . The curries are always good and portions big. Wow I am craving while I write. I am addict to Royal India in the Gaslamp I think its the best Indian restaurant in the whole universe and I am very repeat customer.

He was attentive also visited our table to make sure we are comfortable and having a wonderful time. The food was good. It was as per our spice level.

In fact their menu of different Naan is quite impressive. There is a great selection of authentic Indian food served in generous portions with wonderful service.Food is EXCELLENT. No doubt about it, the authenticity of this place is unquestionable. The servers are all very nice. Great place to grab a bite. I will definately be back!

Provided by YP.comLast week, friend of mine and I were walking on market street. and we heard this Indian music so we just walked in and we didn't even plan to eat but the environment made us hungry. It was saturday evening so they had a special sitar player playing the traditional indian tunes. And on request we could get a table near the sitar player, dat was awesome. In dinner we had chiken tikka masala, a vegetable curry (that day was saag panner which is spinach and cottage cheese), daal curry, papadum, salad with raita dressing and dessert which was gulabjamun. And also, we ordered garlic naan for each of us and mango lassi for dinks. The food was wordless, amazing. One word to describe the food is "WOW" and for the customer service "excellent" and for the environment "amazing". Food is not spicy. It was perfect and as per our expected spice level, also here you have a choice to choose b/w mild, med, hot or indian hot ;)... Their servers are friendly and always smiling. Excellent vegetable curry and the "BEST" chicken tikka masala in TOWN! I will be having my next family party over there in few weeks. I guarantee, all my guests will love there food. Royal India is the BEST INDIAN CUISINE in the town...
PS: I strongly recommend Indian food lovers to visit this place if you really want to eat good quality and tasty food in your life with the real feel of Indian style food!!!!!!"
