$40 for this. I’m good. Food is great. Price not so much. Last time you’ll be seeing me unfortunately

Very delicious! A lot of the previous reviews commented that portions were small, but they were exactly what I expected. For two people we ordered 2 curries and 1 order of naan - we left stuffed!

Pros: The location is great, staff is good, the flavors are good, and when you order a spice level 5 - it is legit very, VERY spicy (I keep habanero, ground ghost pepper, and reaper jelly at home). I loved that about it. Loved it to tears, literally. Cons: The flavor is good but not exceptional, no complaint but it's not amazing enough to justify my main complaint about portion size... My main reason for giving only 2 stars was the incredibly small portion size. The entree was TINY. Even the rice side was TINY. My $16 entree was HALF the size of my friend's order from Tandoori Bites which was $17. Not exaggerating. My friend brought a chicken dish from Tandoori Bites and I was so appalled by the tiny size of the Naan & Brew dish sitting next to it that we washed out and dried the containers, then filled the small one with dry rice before pouring it into the container from Tandoori Bites. It filled it exactly 1/2. That was extremely disappointing, but I would still have given 3 stars if not for the fact that about 60% of the solid material in the dish of "Chicken Vindaloo" was in fact potato cubes, while in the much larger chicken curry from Tandoori Bites all the chunks were meat. That was just appalling, so even though I kind of want to give this place 4 stars based on decent flavor and great spice, the tiny portions and those being further 'cut' with cheap fillers loses them 2 stars. Net result? $16 at Naan & Brew bought less than 1/4 of the chicken purchased for $17 from Tandoori Bites on the same day. I know that supply chains have changed and the cost of wholesale chicken has quadrupled over the past year. So I understand the motives, it's legitimate, but cutting portions is the wrong way to go. I'd rather pay $25 for a proper meal, than $16 for a single-serving dish that isn't big enough to share with a friend. Pizzas cost that. Raise your prices like everyone is being forced to, don't make your portions tiny.

Oh my goodness. The best Indian food ever! The service was also fantastic. Probably the best around. We thoroughly enjoyed the butter chicken, mango lamb, garlic naan, and roti. They were very accommodating and helpful when it came to dairy free options for my daughter, and overall loved having my happy and loud toddler in the restaurant. I really wish we lived closer so we could be frequent customers! I never leave reviews, but after having such a positive and delicious experience I knew I needed to publicly support them!

The buffet is still closed due to Covid. I'm looking forward to it reopening though!

What are the Covid safety practices like here?
