Ahmed Indian Restaurant OBT

I really enjoyed the buffet. Very good variety and the food is fresh. The Nan bread is soooooo good and I love the butter chicken. You can't beat the price. The staff are friendly. The annoying thing there was another patron who was watching a show on his phone as he was eating.

Do not order online!Let me understand you charge $14 for all you can eat but if you order online you have to pay $18 for the chicken and the naan only???? Why ??? Not even rice????? A joke!I made a scene upon pick up so she gave me the rice. Their mango lasse its also the worst I've ever had.

I love Indian food. Running errands and super hungry, we found this gem.Look, I typically don't review anything until a couple tries, but here? Deserves a thumbs up. Great food and service. I can't wait to try again! Tikka Masala was perfect!

This was a go to of mine many years ago. But I moved a bit too far away too frequent. One of my twin 9 year olds is a vegetarian and he recently has started enjoying Indian food so I knew we had to make the trek out to Ahmed. The place has been remodeled since the last time I was here. It looks so different. Everything seemed clean and newer. Except the bathroom. It was dirty and has seen better days. Just avoid it if you can. The food is still great. They make sure the food has a moderate amount of spice so that things aren't bland. We all enjoyed everything we ate. We had the buffet which has several veg and non veg choices. 3 kinds of rice, lentil soup, salad naan, 3 deserts. My boys each hand a mango lassi that they loved. I didn't take too many pics we were too busy eating.

Ahmed has been one of my go to spots for Indian food for quite some time now and a bonus is that this location is very close to my house! Located in a small strip mall off OBT with plenty of parking and easy access from the main street.The inside itself has plenty of seating. The decor and furniture are a tad bit outdated but at least the inside was clean. We were seated almost immediately and our server was very quick and attentive!Now I have been here for both the lunch buffet as well as for the dinner menu and both are really great options. All the items are reasonably priced.. entrees ranging around $13-$16 each. During our last visit I got my usual order of vegetable samosa, both aloo and garlic naan, chicken palak, and chicken briyani.The vegetable samosa and naans came out piping hot. There is absolutely nothing like eating a freshly made naan... it's literally heaven!! The chicken palak is a spinach curry... which I got hot because I love spicy foods and the chicken briyani is a seasoned rice dish. The spices in both of those entrees were very good, it was like having an explosion of flavor in your mouth.Overall, I would say this place is a pretty solid option for Indian food if you are around the area. This place might not have all the bells and whistles... but at least they provide quality food at a good price!

Honestly Ahmed's buffet was only mid at best. The food was okay, but I don't see a reason to come back.The naan was room temperature, which is too bad. Nothing better than hot, fresh naan. The fish was pretty good, but everything else lacked any flavor other than just spicy.I'd say just spend a few bucks more and go to Royal Southern Kitchen if you want a quality buffet.

Got take-out as it was near the end of the night on Thursday.The flavors were so delicious. The steaming hot naan was absolutely delightful. The tikka masala paneer was so so yummy. We also got lamb biryani and shrimp karahi. The biryani was flavorful, wish the lamb was a little more tender. The karahi was quite good but it does have head-on so don't just bite into it. Lovely lovely flavors all around. Not too spicy either, coming from someone with very little spice tolerance. It's very tolerable. Such a delicious dinner, would order again.Interested in trying the buffet next time.

Food - Best Affordability of Any India Themed Dinner in Central Florida. Vegetarian Selection Delightful!Service - Attentive but I arrived Earlier than the Regulars. Being the only person to serve does allow very attentive experience.Ambiance - Many Families started arriving with adult females with hair coverings. I felt very welcomed. The food & service was excellent irregardless of my American Appearance.Location - Located in a less visited area on S OBT. The price of dinner was not inflated by excessive lease costs but the area is limited for non-local visitors.Signage - Exterior Sign Labels the location, "India Restaurant." No objections from me, but it may be challenging to quickly locate the intended destination on initial visit.

Not a big selection if you were looking for and AYCE Indian buffet. Price was fair for what you got.We came in a party of eight, and I had to keep waiting for them to refill the food. Overall, there was nothing special about this place. The kids did like the butter chicken and the desserts.

We tried iAhmed for lunch today. We decided on the buffet. It was average. Worth the price but left a bit unsatisfied. Mainly it was the texture of the mutton & chicken. The flavor was good but both were over cooked & a bit tough. Not quite what I expected. Everything else was ok. One & done here. 3 stars.
