India Mahal Restaurant

In response to "drajput". Man, you are 100% incorrect. You must be associated with one of the other Indian restaurants in town, or something, because your assessment is ludicrous. I have been to Indian restaurants in all four large cities in Tennessee, and to preform some sort of a pseudo-scientific test, my friend and I ordered our favorite dishes in all of these restaurants, making sure to order the same thing every time. I must tell you, compared to India Mahal, none of those other Indian restaurants even came close! One of the worst was Sitar in downtown Chattanooga. (Along with another one of note in Nashville, but that's a story for another day) Either way, India Mahal is the best Indian restaurant in Tennessee! Also, the service amazing. The perfect combination. I live in downtown, essentially walking distance to Sitar, but I drive all the way out to Brainerd road to India Mahal, instead.…

Very bad food. I just hate this restaurant. A big disgrace to Indians and Indian restaurants in the US. Their service is reasonable, but the food is pathetic.

My favorite restaurant in Chattanooga. When I went to school in TN, once a week I would eat at "the mahal" and I never grew tired of the food. The lunch buffet is one of the best things I have come across in my short years on this earth. Nothing makes me happier than a mango lassi, dal makni, saag, and chicken tandoori (my mouth is actually watering). I had their masala tea once and had to buy the spices to try to make it myself. The owner is very nice and will always shake your hand to welcome you. The restaurant is just a happy place and I seriously miss going there with my friends and seeing if we could each eat three full plates and have room for kheer.…
