" Annapoorna is hands down one of the best places for Indian food in town! The food was very flavorful and felt quite authentic in taste, loved the goat curry and buzz of spices in each bite. It's a little cramped but the atmosphere makes you feel cozy and welcoming. Loved the attention from the staff too! Definitely worth coming back for another round! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a delightful evening at Annapoorna Indian Cuisine! The ambiance is cozy, perfect for a relaxed dinner. We tried the lunch buffet, and the variety was impressive. Each dish felt freshly made and packed full of flavors. I particularly enjoyed the goat curry. It was tender and well-spiced. The only downside was that the naan was slightly undercooked. Overall, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Being a fan of South Indian cuisine, my expectations were high for Annapoorna, but I left with mixed feelings. The sambar was great, but the dosa was underwhelming. The service was friendly, but I think I will try other places for authentic South Indian dishes. It has a warm ambience though, which is a plus! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came with friends for their famous buffet. I loved having so many options to choose from but felt some dishes were average in taste. The service was attentive, and it had a nice ambiance but I can’t overlook the quality of food. The desserts were nice, but I hoped for better curry varieties. Still, it’s a decent spot.
