" Mouthwatering experience all around! The variety of dosas available during the buffet was impressive. I tried the ghee dosa, which melted in my mouth. I also appreciated how the sambar was at just the right spice level. The wait staff was attentive, making sure my glass was never empty! Great for a casual outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Rivaj was a treat! The Chicken Chettinad was incredible - so flavorful with the right kick. Not only was the food stellar, but the atmosphere was lively yet inviting. Can't recommend enough for anyone looking for genuine Indian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I fell in love with the Pani Puri at Rivaj! It was the perfect amount of tangy and spicy, just the way I like it. That dish alone made my visit worthwhile. Can't wait to go back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit was disappointing, largely due to the service. We waited far too long for our orders, and they even forgot one of the dishes. The curry was okay but wasn’t spicy enough. The restaurant was clean and had a nice vibe, but the service needs major improvement to match the food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the chance to visit Rivaj Indian Cuisine and mostly enjoyed myself. The dosas were delicious, but I found the buffet selection limited compared to my expectations based on the reviews. Worth a try if you're local, but might not make a special trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" Perfect place for families! The buffet had amazing selections for both adults and kids. I loved the Chicken Biryani while my kids devoured the various dosas on offer. The staff was very accommodating and made our time enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)
