A little taste of india in Greenville! From the Chai (tea) to the Tikka Masala, you will get an authentic experience. The southern indian cuisine is very unique and nothing like what we normally think about when we think of indian food, but if you don't want to be adventurous there are some classics always on the menu (keeping in mind it is all vegetarian). I recommend the Paneer Tikka Masala.

Nice intimate restaurant with friendly staff and delicious food. They do not have sit in service but we could sit outside on their modest tables and chairs. We ordered the samosas which had a potato filling with a nice smooth sweet and tangy chutney. The masala dosa we ordered had a spicy and delicious potato and onion filling with contrasted with the crispy dosa. We ordered the thali which is a nice selection of rice, Naan, and some different stewed dishes and chutneys. The mango Lassi wasn't too sweet with a nice yogurt tang.

Good vegan/vegetarian Indian food. Food had some heat. I had #51 and my husband had #47. Both were really good. We had mild flavor that still packed some heat.

If you are looking for home cooked Indian food. This is a nice place to go. It's in a strip mall and just feels like sitting in a Dhaba.Very friendly people. I loved, and you might too. Reasonably priced. They also sell some Indian groceries if you need.

I knew the original family very well at one point in my life, so this rating is for them. This was a vegetarian staple in Greenville for many, many years. So delicious, you forgot there was no meat in the food...so delicious, you didn’t even miss it!!!! The family retired and we miss them. May the OG’s of Greenville’s vegetarian Indian food feel immense pride in knowing they brought an absolute legendary gem to this beautiful town that needed their cultural influence. Thank you, Daksha and Anil!! Wishing you and your family blessings and health.

We were so incredibly lucky to find this off the map authentic Indian restaurant. It is not in the main area of Greenville but absolutely worth the drive. At first sight, you might not think it is worth the stop, however; it is superb. They offer Thali platter as well as many other delicious dishes. Their menu is extensive and all vegetarian. But for those of you who aren't vegetarian you will still be satisfied by your meal. Everything that we had was excellent. The people who work there, I think they were the owners, were extremely friendly and offered excellent customer service. We had such a great experience there we will definitely return. They also have a small grocery offering various authentic Indian spices and staples. Overall we were very pleased we found the spot and I am looking forward to going back.

Friendly service and wonderful food, with a wide ethnic grocery selection. Menu is strictly vegetarian — I was curious and felt welcome, so I sampled a couple of dishes and they hit the spot.
