This was our first time trying India Cafe. We were extremely happy with our food! I, personally, was very happy that mild meant mild! We ordered shrimp vindaloo, butter chicken, vegetable biryani, and garlic naan ? all excellent.

One of my favorite Iowa City restaurants- l have their lunch buffet about once a week. This was my first time ordering from the evening menu - used delivery service because currently home bound. Food arrived hot and tasty. I wish they had the curried chicken on the lunch buffet - very nice .

I want thrilled with the samosas and tamarind sauce. I like a pastry wrap and more peas in my samosa, and a thicker tamarind sauce.
