New Royal India draws praise for delicious, authentic Indian flavors, friendly and welcoming staff, and generous portions at reasonable prices, with many reviewers calling it a reliable spot and even the best Indian food in the west island. Dishes like butter chicken, samosas, chicken biriyani, Chettinad chicken, goat and lamb curries are described as tasty and well seasoned, though a few items vary in quality and one chicken tikka masala was critiqued for its sauce texture and color while naan was sometimes not fresh. Takeout orders have been described as easy and the service courteous, and the atmosphere noted as charming, clean, and inviting. Some diners mention spice level differences, suggesting asking for extra heat if needed, but several reviewers praise generous portions, freshness, and value, making it a place to return to for many.
Best samosas ever! The service is always kind & friendly. Their garlic naan & butter chicken are incredible as well. This has been my go-to Indian takeout spot for the past two years!
Basically, it was ok. Some dishes were better than others. If you figure out which to order & which to avoid you'll probably enjoy your food.
It was a take out order so I can't comment on the service, but the person that took the order was nice enough.
My take on the dishes we ordered:
- Really enjoyed the samosas.
- The lababdar, chicken & paneer, were both tasty. The color was a bit weird, I'm used to a redder color (maybe it's a regional difference), but I still enjoyed it.
- The chicken tikka masala was not very good in my opinion. The texture & color felt more like tomato (spaghetti) sauce. I've had much better.
- I didn't taste the butter chicken, but no one at the table was raving about it, or complaining about it (take this as you want).
- The naan didn't seem fresh & had no ghee or butter on it. It wasn't bad, but I've had better.
Wow. Delicious. I have been to many Indian restaurants & this was absolutely the best. Food was delicious. Service was friendly & very helpful (I ask a lot of questions). Portion were generous. Will definitely make this place a regular spot from now on.
This was the first time trying at NEW ROYAL INDIA. Went to try their Chicken Biriyani, ordered on the spot spicy, it was really good, presentation was fabulous with onions & lemon, chicken was tender & cooked perfectly & many blend of various spices. Atmosphere was very clean & most of all service was spot on A+++ they are very good people, hospitality was more than there. Thanks again guys, warm greetings
This little hole in the wall has great food. I know that I gave it 4 stars for a reason. The Chettinad chicken was very tasty, the goat was excellent, my wife said, & the lamb melts in your mouth. The rice was undercooked & wet. This is why I gave it a 4 star. The young lady behind the counter was the owner's daughter, & she assisted me in picking the food. Never knew this place existed. Great find. I will definitely go back. We bought a lot of dishes but the price is good.
