India's Cafe & Kitchen

We drove 9 miles specifically to this rundown restaurant in anticipation of its google ad buffet with $6.99 coupon photo. A gentleman, likely the cafe owner, immediately advised us, there is NO Indian buffet in Cleveland, or anywhere.I showed him his coupon on my phone. He assured me that he had no relationship with Google as we turned for the exitI must inform the public of this abominable place. My friend, Radheshyam of Houston was let down. Save your time. It's better to eat elsewhere. We drove to a fine Indian restaurant near CSU only to find excellent food and service away from the dishonest cafeDon't patronize false advertisersThere is absolutely NO buffetToo bad I can't rate his establishment negative 5 starsI hereby rate this place minus 5 stars

Delicious Indian food, delicious flavor, and authentic! Don't let the exterior fool you - I always get Indian food here when I'm in town.

I ordered at 7:30on a sunday night they close at 8p.m and the gentleman on phone so polite and accomaditing. I ordered Butter chicken (which because it was late had to be made with thighs.) .actually i prefer this over boneless chicken breast...personal preference. Samosas were out of this world with a Tamarind n cilantro sauce...bith homemade and top notch. Rice was Pilal or pulav don't know spelling pardon my ignorance but wow it complimented Butter chicken great. Last was Nann...would have prefered garlic but given its allhomemade fresh none available half hour before closing so got reg and it was good. Overall great Indian Gem ...not frills n fufu but just bombass homeade cooking and to me that is most important

I tried this place because I had a coupon, but found out it was not good for the Sunday buffet. The food is decent, and better than some Indian food I've had. Didn't like the goat at all. Maybe it is an acquired taste, but I would never eat goat again. So all in all, pretty good food, but I've had better in the Cle area. I wouldn't go back, however, because the ambience is not good at all. Kind of dirty looking, hodgepodge decor, not a pleasant place to sit down and eat. AND, I would never go back to a place that serves on styrofoam plates and plastic ware. But the food was not bad, so 3 stars.

So, let me try my best not to be that guy/ reviewer. The only reason I'm rating 2 stars is because of how I was treated. The restaurant catered a work event and the food was WONDERFUL! But, when I went to the restaurant they refused to do any carry out for me and said buffet only. This would normally not upset me but I saw a woman leave with several takeout bags.... not too happy. I may give it a second chance and revise my review. Trying a different restaurant until that day.

India's Cafe & Kitchen is appropriately named. The restaurant doesn't have much seating, but its kitchen is huge and supports an active take out and catering service.The restaurant also doesn't waste effort on pretense. In fact, it gets negative pretense points because the silverware is plastic, and the food is served on disposable plates. Instead, the kitchen produces food that tastes great. I'm by no means an Indian food aficionado, but I've always enjoyed the dishes at this restaurant and consistently drive from Cleveland Heights to eat here.The weekend lunch buffets are not bad but leave something to be desired. The selection is not extensive - a couple of vegetarian and a couple of meat dishes. Customer volume is low, so the pakora can get soggy. For lunch buffet I might recommend India Garden in Rocky River.I like to patronize this restaurant for its good food and very nice and down to earth owner. Pass on the buffet and order fresh. Highly recommended Indian food for dine in or take out.

I was looking forward to trying this based on a friend's suggestion. I had eaten here years before and it was good. I ordered take out on a Sunday evening. The menu had a few different vegetarian options. I ordered the Mixed Vegetables Jalfrazi. My order was taken and presented in about 20 minutes. Not bad. The reason I give this place a two is because of the portion size, it was much smaller than most other Indian restaurants and the lack of vegetables in my mixed vegetables. I was expecting a variety of vegetables and it was mostly onions and carrots. The flavor was good but I left wanting more. Y'know that feeling, when you get your hopes up about a really good meal? I had that. Then I was let down.

I took a chance -- I walked in, and immediately was unimpressed by the presentation and layout... the place is small, looks dirty, the utensils, water pitchers, dishware, are all plastic or disposable... the chairs and tables were really cheap looking. I started to get scared that I'd made a horrible mistake... I sat there, nervously and awkwardly with my boyfriend...A very friendly Indian gentleman took our order, and seemed a bit surprised that we were requesting a level of spicyness that I guess doesn't sit well with most vanilla folks who inhabit Parma. He fulfilled our request though, and left us happy with gentle embers in our mouth.The food was absolutely delicious. I loved it, and I want to go again and give them my business! In fact, it was the first time I really enjoyed Indian food, and it prompted me to explore more in this wonderful cuisine!

the past two times ive tried getting food from there they are closed even though their hours say they should be open. frustrating

The owner missed my order as I chose pick-up instead of delivery, so the order took another 20 min to make. The butter chicken tasted bland and the other dish (cheese in spinach sauce) was lukewarm. Will not go back in the near future.
