Reviews for Delhi Palace in Columbia, SC

The food is delicious. Our server was very professional and helpful. The dinner for two is more than enough food for two people!... We even had food to take home! The chai was a good flavor, nice and the right amount of spice. Looking forward to going back! Read more

Utterly underwhelming. Twice I’ve been here, once for a meal and another for the buffet. The pictures online are a lie. The... food looks nothing like them. And the taste is bland and resembles a mindset that cares more about saving money than the qualityof the food. Cut corners with ingredients and frozen produce being warmed up rather then made from scratch. The price does notreflect the quality, if you are looking for a good, well prepared Indian food then don’t come here. I will not be returninghere unless there has been a radical change in the quality of the food. Read more

I've been coming here since 2015 and always enjoyed it. A friend and myself have eaten here a good bit over the last year but... last time we were in there the owner came up to the table while I was getting another plate and asked "how much are you going toeat?". I had three plates with small amounts of everything, this was while getting my third. Second issue. My friend and mehave been there many times and we always pay separate. So during this same visit the man rings us up as one ticket. Thenproceeds to grief me because "if you want to pay separate your going to wait." He makes a big stink about it and carries onuntil a young woman steps in to help. I still like the place, enjoy their food, always tip, but will not go back due to theattitude. Read more

All buffets have taken a hit in customers and therefore in variety of offerings. But Delhi Palace still has a great selection of... stuff, all the bases are covered and there's always one or two special things. I loved the okra last time. I'm going again soon. Read more

I've taken my family there twice now, trying to give it a second chance. Both visits were about a month apart and on different... days of the week. Unfortunately, the service here was next to non existent. My wife ended up just getting a jar of water to pourfor us after about 15 minutes of waiting. There was only one server who said their dishwasher called out, but even the firsttime we went it seemed as if the server was really stressed out. I've never walked in to a restaurant paying $16/person and feltlike they didn't want me there. They didn't give us napkins, the buffet was minimal (no naan, chicken or rice when we got there)and we were told that they wouldn't put any more desserts out even though they were about gone. It's just not worth the money, Irecommend trying somewhere else. Read more

Ordered "Keema Mater" and "Assorted Bread Basket." Keema Mater is supposed to be ground lamb.... what I received today was NOT... lamb! I ordered from here due to several past postive experiences of deliousness, however, this was the worst! Co-workerenjoyed, however, it was his first time having the dish and he didn't have expectations. When I called restaurant to make sureI was given ground lamb, he reassured me it was and stated, "maybe they added more spices." I still should taste lamb, despitethe "extra spices." Will not patronage this restaurant again. I have no idea what "meat" that was we consumed!!!! Sodisappointed. Customer.....You've been warned. Read more

Only giving 2 stars because the guy working was very nice and he also gave me a 10% off my meal. I'm going to try to give this... place my honest opinion on what I notice while here. First look at the place it looks pretty nice and clean. I noticed thatwhen people left the guy working would clean and spray and wipe up after they left. Ill also say that this was the only place Icould find offering a lunch (Indian) buffet. The worker also had his face mask on the whole time i was there. That was the goodstuff. The bad "my opinion " food was not have enough flavor. Most not all of the food did not appear to be fresh. My chickenwas so dried that it was hard. My biggest problem was they had roaches every where. I was eating and one crawled on my table.When I started looking around they were all over the wall. I pointed them out the the waiter and he just grabbed a napkin andstarted killing them. He did tell me they just sprayed for roaches on Monday. I was here on a Friday. When I went to pay formy food that is when I got 10% off. He did say the bugs come out after they spray. I don't think I'll be coming back to thisplace. I do hope they can get there bug problem under control. It could be good here. I use to like it here. Owner did respondso maybe l will give them another chance. Read more

A friend from out of town requested this restaurant and promised that I would love it... and she was right! I love flavors and... spices however was afraid of the level being too hot for my taste. The wait staff were very helpful, the food delicious and weeven received a brief education on the hot pepper they do use for spice. Absolutely delicious! Ambiance was perfect to catch upwith my friend. Will definitely return! Read more
