Amazing hosts that have been in the Food business for 40+ years . They leave no stone unturned to ensure that you are truly pampered with the highest quality- both in freshness and taste- food available in Southern California. Your first visit will become a lifetime relationship. The Restaurant's warmth and hospitality make it a memorable occasion every time you visit . Not to forget ...You'll have the best seat in the house to watch The Disneyland Fireworks while sitting in comfort, eating a delicious meal .... A must visit (and re-visit)

This place is a MUST visit in Anaheim and SoCal in General. This place is WORTH the drive and the wait. Was busy but service was excellent and the owners and all of the staff make the entire atmosphere very warm and welcoming. Tell them it’s your first time and expect to be treated like family. All of the food is made fresh and during our visit every item was replenished multiple times (AYCE Buffet). Quality remained excelled through out. 10/10 recommend. Will absolutely be back

The food of the buffet is good. But limited. Also, doesn't include a drink. I would suggest for the restaurant owners to bring different options for the buffet weekly.

Food was okay, owner was super pushy at the end. Forced 3 of us to leave 5 star reviews. When my phone wasn’t pulling it up and I put it away he told me to take it out again and to try again, then was touching and tapping my phone for me. I’m 20 and know how to scan a QR code.

The service was great! Everyone was very attentive and we got sat immediately and the food was good! We got the butter chicken which was a 7/10 but the sauce was DELICIOUS but the chicken was tough to chew. I would not get it with chicken, probably try the paneer next time. The tandoori chicken was a 5/10, needed more flavor but it was moist, probably a great addition to the sauce in the butter chicken. The paddad was a 10/10! I would get it again! We got it friend over roasted. But if you don’t like spicy food, you shouldn’t they it. I am an authentic Indian, and I really enjoyed the experience here! Will come again if I visit Anaheim another time! Everyone come try this place out.

Great Indian food and very upscale decor inside. We went early to enjoy a quiet amd delicious meal. The host turned the music off upon our arrival, which i would have enjoyed.
The iced tee came late / after dinner was served and it tasted like green tea with skim milk. I would recommend black tea and filling up with sweet condensed milk.

Fly horse beer is a great larger beer! The rice was great. Chicken tikka masala was above average. The ordering was kind of lame using one of those big new McDonalds kiosks. There was no air conditioning and a noticeable smoke haze inside the restaurant. Bathroom was ok; not a fan of no paper towel. Shawn was super nice and authentic. Would definitely go back.

Running restaurant with different name - Indian Flavours - under Uber Eats. Overcharging and worst quality of food. Also packaging is so bad. Should be completely banned. Charged $40 for such bad quality food.

August 2023 4*

Visited the place for the quick dinner. The place was very close to my hotel and decided to try it out. The restaurant is located very close to Disney resorts

The ambiance is fine and staff is friendly. The food could have been better. The restaurant also serve buffet in lunch and remain close on Monday.

Here is my food list:

- Mango Lassi ***
- Samosa *****
- Yellow Daal ****
- Garlic Naan *****

The place is accessible. There is only one restroom so you may need to wait.
