" We held a family reunion at Santoor last month, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our large group. The buffet had something for everyone, and I loved that they catered to dietary preferences. The food was delightful, and each dish was packed with flavor! The restaurant had a relaxed atmosphere, making it perfect for conversations and catching up. Highly recommended for group gatherings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just finished another meal at Santoor, and I can't sing their praises enough! It was a Sunday buffet that had a variety of dishes from tandoori to curries—the butter chicken especially stood out. Everything was replenished frequently, and the staff was very diligent about keeping the area clean. I also appreciated how they cater to different dietary needs, which is a big plus for my family. Great value for the price! " (*Curated Review*)

" Santoor continues to impress me with their quality and consistency. I’ve been coming here for years and the butter chicken remains my favorite—so creamy and full of flavor without being overly spicy. I appreciate their attention to detail; the naan is always hot and fresh! It’s nice to see familiar faces among the staff which makes it feel warm and welcoming. I can't think of a better place for a family dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't sure what to expect from Santoor but I was pleasantly surprised! After hearing good things, I decided to give it a shot and I’m glad I did. The service was friendly and prompt, and the food was delicious. The Lamb Rogan Josh was outstanding, with just the right amount of spice. Plus, the décor is quite charming and creates a nice atmosphere. I’ll be returning to see what else I can try! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a great place! I celebrated my birthday at Santoor last month and the staff made me feel so special. They arranged a small cake, which was a lovely surprise. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the goat curry! I will definitely be back for more celebrations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Santoor. My starter was fine—the samosas were good, but I found my main dish a bit underwhelming. The chicken tikka masala was bland compared to the rich flavors I had hoped for. Service was decent, but I felt a little ignored at times. It's a popular spot, so they were quite busy, which might explain some of the slowness. All in all, it’s an average dining experience for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m so glad I tried Santoor. I ordered the Chicken Biryani and it was fantastic! The flavors were just right and the chicken was tender. They also have a variety of vegetarian options that my friends loved. Service was friendly but a bit slow, which is understandable since they were quite busy. Overall, I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting good Indian food. " (*Curated Review*)
