" Visited this quaint spot for their lunch buffet, expecting a variety of dishes. Although the options were plentiful, some dishes fell short on flavor. The butter chicken was creamy but lacked the depth I anticipate. Still, the service was friendly, making the experience worth a visit. " (*Curated Review*)
