" I've been to Sitar several times and always leave happy. The buffet is incredibly varied and they have excellent preparation skills that deliver on flavor. The service is always efficient and friendly. While I wish they would explore bolder spices, I still appreciate the lovely atmosphere and the quality of food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sitar boasts a delightful lunch buffet that is worth every penny. Upon visiting, I found myself enjoying several distinct flavors that stood out beautifully. The assortment of chutneys was delightful, and the hospitality shown by the staff made the meal even better. I am absolutely coming back to explore more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must recommend Sitar to anyone exploring Indian cuisine. It is a hidden gem! The flavors were rich, and my favorites included the chicken tikka masala and the lentil dishes. Although there were limited options for spice levels, every dish was delicious! The atmosphere felt authentic and cozy, an ideal spot for families or a casual dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sitar provides a solid buffet experience with friendly service. There wasn't a thing on the buffet that I particularly disliked. Each dish was adequately seasoned, though not necessarily traditional. For those with sensitive palates, this might be ideal. I left feeling full and content, which is all I was looking for. " (*Curated Review*)

" I brought my family to Sitar for dinner after hearing great reviews, and we were not disappointed! The atmosphere felt cozy, perfect for our evening out. The buffet allowed us to sample a little bit of everything. I loved the Tandoori chicken; it was absolutely delicious! The staff was very friendly and made sure our drinks were always full. A great experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was disappointed with my visit to Sitar. While the ambiance was lovely and the staff very hospitable, the food quality wasn't what I hoped for. Some of the dishes were bland, and it felt like they catered more towards American tastes instead of authentic Indian flavors. The samosas were a highlight, but most dishes fell flat for me. Maybe it was an off day, but I probably won't be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sitar Indian Cuisine is a fantastic place for anyone who enjoys Indian food. The buffet had an extensive range that included everything from rich curries to delightful desserts. I tried several dishes, and while I loved most of them, a couple felt a bit toned down in their spices. However, the overall quality was top-notch, and the staff was incredibly helpful. It is definitely a place I'll return to! " (*Curated Review*)
