" A friend recommended Flavor of India, and it did not disappoint! The staff were friendly and ensured we were well taken care of. The paneer tikka was delightful, and the biryani was perfectly savory. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a taste of authentic Indian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Flavor of India on a Sunday evening and was very pleased with my experience. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere, perfect for both couples and families. I ordered the chicken tikka masala, and while the flavors were good, I found it a bit milder than I expected. The service was also prompt, making the experience enjoyable overall. I will come back to try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I had high expectations based on previous reviews, my experience was just average. I found the food to be slightly underwhelming, lacking the spice and flavor I associate with Indian cuisine. The service was friendly, but I wouldn’t rush back unless I hear significant improvements in their offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried the butter chicken and was wowed by the flavor! It was just the right amount of spice, and the naan paired perfectly with it. The service was attentive and made sure I had everything I needed throughout my meal. An overall delightful dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Flavor of India is all about family and tradition. The menu reflects diverse Indian cuisines, and the service is friendly. My dish, chicken tikka, was tender and flavorful. It’s a great spot for those new to Indian food because they can adjust spice levels for you. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited during a busy evening and noticed the service could be slow at times, but the food made up for it. I loved the flavorful biryani and the warm garlic naan. It’s a casual place that offers great Indian cuisine – I’d definitely return for takeout! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was average overall. The food didn’t blow me away, and while the service was friendly, it felt a bit slow at peak times. I had the lamb vindaloo, which was decent but not very spicy as I expected. I think it could improve with some tweaks in flavor profiles. " (*Curated Review*)
