Ordered for delivery and was so impressed! Everything was piping hot when it arrived and packaged well. They even sent a little paper plate with it so I could dish out my food, which was so thoughtful. The chili naan was so good and had the perfect amount of spice to it. The chana masala was good too!The menu overall looked fairly large and the portion sizes are pretty big. I definitely have enough leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I'll definitely be ordering again or stopping by in person.

Hidden gem downtown Indianapolis near the IUPUI campus. Wonderful buffet that they have everyday. All the great Indian options including a large selection of vegetarian dishes. Also many non-veg options like Tandoori Chicken and Goat curry. Something for everyone, Friendly waitstaff and a clean restaurant! with great traditional Indian food! Yummy let's go!

I tried Delhi Palace recently for the lunch buffet. I was happy with the food and really enjoyed pretty much everything I tried. It had a very quiet, homey atmosphere that I loved. Everyone who worked there was super helpful! My only problem was that I wished the posted their buffet prices because I didn't know what the price was until I was paying. Still pretty reasonable for unlimited food but unless I just missed it, it would have been nice to know ahead of time.

I like coming here, the service is exceptional - you can tell that many are regulars because of the community feel of the spot. Buffet offering is decent, all the normal things you'd expect - Saag Paneer, Chicken Tikka, Tandoori Chicken, Garlic Naan. Everything is quite good and the line is well maintained. Will continue to come back here when I have a lunch craving.

They have a lunch buffet!! It doesn't seem like much from the outside...it's a narrow little space tucked into a strip mall-like building next to Qdoba & Noodles & Co. I wasn't expecting much, but the food was good & they had a wide variety of items. Everything on the buffet was well labeled.I'd definitely recommend giving it a try!

I came in for the lunch buffet, and the service was good. However, when I started getting the food off the buffet, I realize it's mostly just sauce and no substance inside them. After eating, I realize this is Indian food for the white man. As very little flavoring in the food. Mostly coconut milk and a splash of protein. Not a favorite of mine.
