Consistently excellent food. And they know their spice. Order extra hot anywhere else and it’s hot at best. Order that here and you’re in for a ride, I love it. I suggest just “hot” if you like it really spicy. The meats are so tender you can cut them with a spoon. Good people. Thanks.

The owner Mr. Abdul Karim was super friendly and really made sure we were taken care of. The food was so tasty and the service was awesome. We really liked butter chicken and mutton. Definitely a must-stop if you’re in Anchorage!

Love, Love, Love Taste of India! I was very pleased with the atmosphere, food and customer service. We ordered — Tandoori Mixed Grill, Chicken Bhuna and Chicken Tikka Masala. The food was very flavorful and filling. I highly recommend the Chicken Bhuna (medium spice) the spices helped clear my sinuses and was so soooo good! The Tikka Masala (medium) was also good, but I felt like it was more mild than medium heat but still very good. Looks like i’ll have to order a spice level up! I really loved that they are generous with their portions. We’ve been to a couple other Indian style restaurants and they always give us more curry than actual meat. Overall, the experience was pleasant, customer service was nice and I think the Tandoori Shrimp is on my dishes to try next time I’m here :)

***HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!*** My husband and I came here on a whim, having never eaten at an Indian restaurant before. It's a quaint restaurant with a warm and welcoming feel upon entering. There are touches of India throughout the restaurant, from the art to the music videos playing on the television. We told our waiter that it was our first time and he went to go get the manager, Jaed. The manager came out and was SO friendly and kind. He described all of the most popular dishes, drinks, and desserts, and what they were made of. He also gave us his recommendations, as we wanted to try an appetizer, main course, dessert, and their drinks (all non-alcoholic). When they delivered each course, a description and how to eat it was given, as well as a check-in to see how we liked it. Every single item we ordered was phenomenal!! The spices and the spice were there, the joy, the happy dance... everything!! We left very full and very happy with leftovers to spare. Even after ordering everything we ordered, we paid less than $80. It was an amazing experience with amazing food. Needless to say, this is now one of our favorite restaurants, and we will definitely be coming back. *BONUS* They cater and deliver! Thank you SO MUCH for the amazing food and amazing service!!

We found this Indian joint in the middle of Anchorage. Tried the veg kofta, mutter paneer, Roti basket, Onion Kulcha and Garlic naan’s were top class, mutter paneer was freshly made and great in taste. Kofta was average as the gravy looked like tomato based. Overall sumptuous meal and food was great. They have masala Chai but it was sugar included. I wish they make without Sugar as it can be added easily.

We went to this place with friends and family. Our expectations were not high but this place really impressed us. We ordered vegetarian curries, naan, roti and everything was pretty awesome. I haven't seen such good place in san diego. I definitely recommend this place for authentic indian food. **Only 1 change I would recommend is to not use plastic glasses for serving water or lassi.

The service was heartfelt and personal, making the entire experience feel like a homecoming. Now, the food — absolutely incredible! Every dish was bursting with authentic flavors, perfectly spiced, and served fresh and hot. It honestly felt like we were dining in India itself.

A warm and welcoming atmosphere with solid service. I was quick to be seated and not rushed at all to place my order for dine in. Food was wonderfully delicious, quick to table, and with good presentation. Walls could use a good cleaning and maybe a coat of paint, but it’s not that bad at all. I’d eat here again tomorrow if nothing but for the best garlic naan I’ve ever had in anchorage. 10/10 recommend.
