Reviews for Karavalli in Latham, NY
This restaurant was recommended by one of my friends from India. He said it was the best of the area. It was delicious. I had... dishes there I hadn't had anywhere else. The lunch buffet is incredible value. If I lived in Albany I would eat there 2 or 3times a week. Worth the 68 Mile drive. Went back to Karavalli 2 weeks ago, and we were not disappointed. Excellent again. Saveroom for desserts. The best Indian dessert we have ever tasted. The carrot pudding is without equal. Read more
The ambience is very good. Had the Chettinad veggie option. Can't say that it's the best entre I've had...the tandoori roti was... good though. Read more
Great selection of food items with an abundance of protein choices. All portions were generous, with the exception of the Malai... Kofta having a lot of delicious gravy but only four veggie dumplings. We really enjoyed the flavor of everything, and I greatlyappreciate it that they left off the cilantro upon request as I'm one of those individuals who cannot stand the taste ofcilantro. Read more
Great selection of food from all over India. Had their lunch buffet along with some masala chai. Loved the vegetarian options... and the variety of cuisine. Must visit if you are in the Albany area. Read more
Me and my roommates went there on last Saturday to have dinner. As all three of us belong to South Asian Countries, so we... preferred to have Indian food. One of us chose to have Mysore Masala Dosa and the rest chose Chicken Faal and VegetableVindaloo. Rice was served alongwith the dishes and it’s enough for both of us. We also ordered Mango Lassi and Chaye (tea).The lassi was good and as I felt thirsty I drank all of it at once. The taste of Chicken faal was good as it seemed to me cheesewas also put in spices and also the chicken was well cooked but it's a spicy dish. Vegetable Vindaloo was one of it's kindspicy! It was so much for me that we just couldn’t have it further after one spoon. So if you are not well accustomed to havemuch spicy food then please just avoid this dish. I felt really uncomfortable after having it and my health didn’t dowell. But the ambience and overall food experience was good and the staffs were really well mannered and kind. For the next timeI would love to have Dosa from here as my friend told it was really good, be it in texture or size or be it about taste. Thankyou! Read more
The food was good, the prices were fair, however towards the end of the meal the waitress was rushing us out when they didn't... close until 2 hrs later so I thought that was pretty rude. The manager was pleasant but the waitress could practice bettercustomer service to promote customer retention. I would order take out from here in the future and I'd recommend thisrestaurant if you're looking for good Indian food. Read more
Good ambience inside. But our order arrived so late! We were really disappointed. The starters were good especially the dry... chilli chicken. The complementary papad served were inedible barely done ????. The biriyani was okay too nothing much to say.Quantity was decent but the mutton dish! Omg what was it! It was so bad. It was literally mutton cooked in a spicy red pepperpowder gravy!!! We ended up tossing it! At least the mango lasso was good. Not coming here again. Read more
I can understand the buzz behind Karavalli. Not only was the food well balanced but the presentation along with all the other... nuances set it out different from other Indian restaurants we have visited in the past. The Mysore masala Dosa was on point butthe sambar was exquisite as were the sauces. The chili chicken was spiced to perfection. Read more
