Ailie Chang: They have a daily lunch buffet! Ask for lots of naan bread to dip in sauces :) Also, try their mango drink. I'm not too sure what it's called, but it's like a smoothie.
Sarwat Dooti: Appetizers: curried mussels and samosas Entrees: shrimp with coconut curry and khuroosh-e-tursh, both with garlic onion naans Desserts: rasmalai and mango ice cream

Carolee Mitchell: Don't be deceived by the exterior and chow down on the lamb naan panini @ Whip In (made with locally-grown lamb). Top it off with a chai or awesome beer.
Eater: The convenience store/liquor store/Indian restaurant combo is odd, but that's what makes it quintessentially Austin. The naan sandwiches are what earned it a place on our list. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Jairy Grisaffe: Breakfast naan, lots of beers on tap, and lots of other goodies. This place is one best to come to in Austin for food and drink.

Jamie Graham: I come here at least once every 2 weeks - the chicken tikka masala (mahkni) is the best I've ever had. The naan is fluffy, crispy, and warm, too. Get yourself to Taj Palace!
cori drew: Hands-down, the best Indian Buffet I've had. Nan is amazing; salad dressing is freshly made; tomato soup is to die for. Delicious!
Carlos 🏳️🌈 ✊🏽 🏳️⚧️: 5 words... Saag Paneer and Garlic Naan.
Sheetal Bongale: Amazing Happy hour menu. Chicken Naan, Lamb kebabs, Spicy Edamame, Bruschetta were amazing! Best moscow mule!
Victoria Schaefer: Fresh creative menu. Great staff.
Nicholas Alter: Awesome first experience. Matt, the waiter, is awesome. If he is on duty, ask for him and tip him well. Just fantastic.

South Indian Restaurant · 4 tips and reviews
Denisse M: Biryanis, kebabs on the grill, naan. It’s all good!
Mohit Seth: Veg biryani was decent. The amount of yogurt is very less, so get some extra yogurt.
Rajeev Bector: The quality of food at this restaurant has come down faster than a shooting star. Do yourself a favor and avoid going here if you can. 6 months ago food here was reasonable good.
Cecilia Neuhaus: Try the gelato! You can get multiple flavors in one cup, and if you are creative with the choices, you can cover all the food groups!
CultureMap Austin: Although the cafe's wine is cheap, buying a bottle from the grocery to eat inside is even cheaper.
Juan P. Contreras: The food is so good at any time of day. The open space you can sit, in or out. Live music around moon time. Come and enjoy it some day.
