Reviews for Taste Of India in Cedar Rapids, IA
Whoever the man is that brings the food to the tables is an incredible person. He has so much fun and you can tell he genuinely... enjoys his job, which is rare to find in the restaurant business at the moment. He was friendly, conversational, and greetedeveryone with a smile. This restaurant has an excellent atmosphere, expansive menu, and welcoming staff all around. I?ve beenbefore, and I?ll be continuing to return. They are worth your time and business! Read more
If you are ever have a hankering for Indian food I usually choose this one. Price is right and dishes are simple. Atmosphere is... more dim to try to keep a more relaxed environment. Some of the staff can be a hit or miss. Sometimes they check too frequentlymaking you less comfortable at times. Read more
The food was absolutely amazing, we had the best server, Ferdos!! All of our food came perfectly timed and 100% correct. So... happy to have found this place with the best service. ???? Well done! Read more
Everything is always super good here whether you're dining in or taking out, great vegetarian options too! I got the paneer... tikka masala today (in the picture), the paneer is great (it's soft cheese that's been fried in the tandoori oven) would highlyrecommend anything with it Read more
My fiance and I visited here recently and came away impressed. We each ordered a mango lasse (very tasty) and shrimp biriyani... (good flavor, authentic taste) with the right amount of spice for us. We also ordered an appetizer and dessert. Both were good.Waiters were solid. The best part was I felt like the prices were fair. Will be back. Read more
Taste of India 1060 Old Marion Rd NE Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 I'll start by saying we have been to this Taste of India a good... number of times. Traveling all over the United States, I have yet to find a place that we love this much! ?LocationSetting? The location is a lower lighted. It consists of booths, tables, and cross-legged seating. We usually pick a booth forthe more intimate experience while we enjoy the food, with me making all the noise of enjoying food while eating. ?CustomerService? We are always met promptly at the door and seating rather quickly. The staff is always kind and one, in particular, wehave grown to love. He always makes it fun for the kids and excellent service. One of the things he says is "Rice Rice Baby"when he delivers the rice, and the kids are just dying for this moment and chant it randomly throughout the week. ?Food? SAMOSA(VEGAN) GARLIC NAAN BUTTER CHICKEN (GLUTEN-FREE) LAMB KORMA (GLUTEN-FREE) BAIGAN BHARTHA (VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE) CHICKEN SIZZLER(GLUTEN-FREE) Man, those kids can eat a lot now! Everything was fantastic once again. The food is cooked to perfection,steaming hot. If you want to see what a real Tandoori chicken is like, try it out here and have your mind blown away. I lovethat they have such a high standard of food service. If you love spicy food, start with a medium heat unless you are wellversed in Indian spices. I enjoy the Medium for some dishes and hot for others. To keep it easy for the family, we usually domost of it mild with one spicier dish. It's always a good idea when first trying Indian food for the first time to get it asmild as possible, or at least one dish mild. Unless you have loved spicy food your entire life, then have at it and let me knowwhat you thought about the spicier level ;). If you ever have a chance to get the buffet, I highly recommend it. It is verywell priced for the food quality, and the butter chicken IS TO DIE for. If you haven't ever been, you have to check it out Read more
This was my first experience with this cuisine. Not only was it great dining but a history & culture lesson. The waitress was... so helpful and patient with our choices. The atmosphere was enjoyable because of design details, music playing and cleanlinessof restaurant. Read more
This place is FANTASTIC! Got the recommendation from a friend very familiar with Indian food, and he said this is the best in... the area, including Iowa City. You really can?t beat the lunch special (although it?s a limited selection of entrees). Greatfood at a great price. My favorite was the butter chicken. The naan is also very good here, even the plain naan. 10/10! Read more
