Jewel of India

Best vegetable samosas in the area. Awesome flavor, cooked the way one would expect from an Indian restaurant. Never greasy, always got and delicious.

Went here on Thanksgiving and the food was amazing! I got the vegetable korma and my boyfriend got the butter chicken. We both loved our dishes. So rich and the veggies/spices were cooked perfectly. Very adorable. My boyfriend has lived internationally and knows good Indian food. 💛

We thoroughly enjoyed the food but the staff and appearance of the restaurant put us off a bit.

We ordered quite a selection for lunch which turned out to be enough for dinner as well. Ordering online was easy enough and our meal was ready in a short amount of time.

As mentioned above, it was the staff and restaurant that was a bit off. Our meal was packed in paper bags, plastic containers, and stuffed in a plastic bag. Based on all of that, I thought we would definitely be disappointed in our meal. However, the food was so good that it offset my initial impression.

We ordered two (2) vegetable samosa as we were not sure how many came with each order; there were three per order for us. They were still warm, crispy, came with sauces, and had good flavor. Unlike some samosas I've had, these were completely filled with the potato and pea mixture.

We shared the Aloo Chat which we thought was the best tasting dish with the mix of yogurt, tamarind, and mint sauce.

Our soups were good but nothing fancy. We had the coconut soup which had quite a bit of fresh coconut but seemed light on the beshamel. The Mulligatawny soup was surprisingly a smooth bisque.

We saved our entrees for dinner which were Chicken Dopayaza and Chicken Vindaloo. Both were good and flavorful with large chunks of tender chicken. I highly recommend the Dopayaza with its tangy tomato sauce.

Don't let the appearance of the restaurant or the gruffness of the staff stop you from trying Jewel of India because their food is good!!
