" This little gem in Ann Arbor has quickly become one of my favorite dining spots. The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the service is always friendly. I particularly loved the Sag Dal, which had rich flavors and perfect texture. Don't miss out on their homemade desserts, too! Eating at Earthen Jar is more than just a meal; it’s an experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Earthen Jar is truly a blend of tradition and taste. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the rich aromas of authentic Indian cooking. I loved the baingan bharta, though I did have to wait a little longer than expected for it to be served. Nonetheless, I appreciate the cozy interiors and the kind-hearted staff. The buffet concept makes it easy to sample several dishes. Will return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Continuously impressed with the quality at Earthen Jar. I keep coming back for the delicious dal and crisp pakoras. The fact that I can see what goes into my meal through the buffet makes me trust the ingredients more. It's an inviting spot and the fact that it's family-run adds a special touch of warmth! Keep it up! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was impressed by Earthen Jar when I first tried it two weeks ago and have already been back twice! The food is consistent and never disappointing. Prices are very fair especially for portions. My favorite has been the Cholla and Chapati; both are flavourful and filling. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking authentic vegetarian Indian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Earthen Jar stands out in Ann Arbor’s food scene. The approach of paying by weight for the buffet is quite clever. I found everything from fresh veggies to hearty lentils – all prepared with authentic Indian spices. The mango lassi was exquisite and paired perfectly with my meal. Overall, the experience was delightful and I would advocate for anyone to give this place a try. " (*Curated Review*)

" Earthen Jar has become my go-to place for vegetarian food. I love their emphasis on quality, and it's clear they care about sourcing fresh ingredients. Going there feels welcoming, and the staff has always been friendly. The only downside is that it can get a little crowded. Nonetheless, I feel it’s worth the wait, especially for the delicious curry dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing good reviews, I decided to stop by Earthen Jar and was captivated by the authenticity of the food served. I had the soy mango lassi and Aloo Gobi which were fantastic! However, the portion sizes were a bit small for the price, but the taste made up for it. I recommend this restaurant primarily for the unique flavors and friendly atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)
