Cosy place, delicious food and wonderful owner. You will laugh a lot with him. You may even know a little bit more about your future, since the owner is able to read your palms. My favourite Indian restaurant in France. Highly recommended.

How does a restaurant with decent food get a 1-star rating? Combine waiting over an hour for food that arrives cold, waiting another half hour for the food to arrive slightly warmer, in a dining room that's filled to capacity (about 20 people), with the front door completely shut, during a pandemic (we waited outside, and opened the door). Add to this kitchen staff visible from the dining room working without masks, a useless co-owner who offers a smiley apology for the cold food and the other mentioned problems by saying that he and his staff are humans, not machines, and blames the government for not having educated him about the dangers of a full dining room full of maskless customers with the door closed during a pandemic (not to mention the fully occupied, air-conditioned, windowless and doorless basement). And all of the above has to be paid for by cash or check (the paper one from the nineties...), while it's not announced anywhere visible the fact that he doesn't take Visa or Mastercard. And when you finally return from the cash machine to the now-empty restaurant to pay for the tedious and disturbing experience and get the hell out of there, he now offers you a digestive drink... That's how you get one star.
Awesome Indian food, the decoration is pretty and the atmosphere is friendly as the staff. Highly recommended
A nice small restaurant in the downtown of Lyon. It came up as #1 in Lyon on tripadvisor, so we gave it a try. First of all, they mostly offer vegetarian buffet, so if you want a customised meal the only option is to order something non-veg. The buffet is quite vast with lots of options for tasty starters, curries, rice and sweet dishes. The taste of food items in the buffet is good but little underwhelming for the authentic Indian taste. The add on tandoori chicken was awesome. Having a lot of sweet dishes in the buffet was generous and they all tasted really good. The owner is a very friendly and warm person as well as the other staff. The only small suggestion would be to talk little bit less so that people don't have to queue to pay. Overall a nice experience.
I think people who gave rating they have not tasted Indian food.... This restaurant has Pakistan food not India food....and it's waste of money........also street is very risky and dangerous for Family....
Small restaurant with good food. We did the lunch buffet with a friend from New Dehli and she thought everything was fine, though she thought the dal was under seasoned. It gets very crowded and hard to maneuver through all the throng. I particularly liked the pakora. And there was a carrot based slaw, that I don't think is really Indian but it was delicious.
Pleasant staff, nice environment, not that crazy about the food
Buffet includes: samosas, pakoras, dal, palaak paneer, a mushroom dish, two types of rice (regular and biryani-style,) several salads, a handful of desserts, roti, and probably some other stuff I can't remember. There are lots of meat-based main dishes at dinner or you can order more of the vegetarian options. There are also your usual naan options (regular, cheese, and garlic) as well as various lassis.
