Once a month one individual in our group of 3 takes turns picking a place for lunch. This month my friend chose Indian Heaven since they have enjoyed take out from here on multiple occasions. It's been 30 years since I've last eaten Indian cuisine. Not having a lot of experience with Indian cuisine I will say that the food definitely had nice depth of flavor and was the best Indian I've had. The service was friendly and the restaurant appeared pretty clean. My biggest hesitation for coming back are the following: 1. Price point-You can expect to pay $18-$20 per meal. I ordered Malai Tikka- it was about 10 pieces of cubed chicken. It was flavorful and by far the favorite of the group but it was just pieces of chicken, no rice, no bread, no sides. To add bread it is anywhere from $3-$6 more per order. I love bread, but none of the naan we ordered (we ordered 4 different types) knocked my socks off. They did have a nice selection of different flavors to choose from though. Just for perspective, we ordered several appetizers and four main dishes, 4 naans and one dessert to share. The bread came after the main dishes. The total with tip after the 25% August promotional discount was $150. I know everything is expensive these days but for the portion sizes especially with no sides with the meal-I have a hard time spending that on a lunch. 2. The wait time for our food. We went at 11:30 on a Friday, and other than 3 customers that came in for carry out ( and they all had to wait probably at least 15 minutes for their orders-not sure if they were call ahead or if they just placed it when they walked in) we were the only ones in the restaurant. From start to finish it was 2-2.5 hours that it took for lunch with no one in there except us. I don't know anyone that has that kind of time to take for lunch on a work day.3. Ambiance-By far this not a total make or break, but there is no ambiance at all. White walls with a few random posters thrown sporadically up and cheap seating. The Subway by my house has more ambiance. I recommend using some rich colors on the walls and maybe throwing some fake green plants to warm the place up a bit. Just a suggestion.If you like Indian food and can afford the price point and time, do give this place a try. Like I said, the food did have nice, rich flavors and the staff was nice I wish them success.

I was excited when I heard about this Indian restaurant. I've tried it twice, and time I wasn't impressed. Both times I get chicken dishes, asked for 'hot' spice. Chicken was chewy, flavors were bland. I could deal with both if the place wasn't overpriced. Way too much for below average Indian food. Plus dining there isn't much nicer than eating at Subway. When spending 20+ for an entree I'd expect a nicer place to eat and much better food quality. Sorry for such a sad report.

We went there for dinner. It was very clean and good. I am gluten free and the server was able to point out what would be good. I had no reaction .

Tried this tonight for quick dinner, ordered online very easy, picked up and it smelt amazing on drive home. But then it went down hill! Naan bread was dry and crispy, clearly reheated. The biriyani wasn't great stodgy rice not much flavor, and the yoghurt was very running! The Madras and Butter chicken were fine and spicelevel good. It's a Saturday night after Christmas which may have been bad timing to order, but it didn't convince me to make this a regular take out option.

Don't drive past without giving this place a try. Over the years I've frequented other Indian restaurants throughout Michigan, but was very excited to learn Lake Orion was getting a spot of our own. For what you're getting with fresh quality ingredients, you can't go wrong for the price. Compared to any burger spot around town, the price isn't far off. I will gladly pay the price knowing I'm not having grease and skimping on flavor and ingredients. My entire family will be back.
