" I just had the most delightful dinner at Roti Indian Bistro! The Chicken Tikka Masala was bursting with flavor, rich and creamy, exactly how authentic Indian food should be. The owner came by to check on us, which felt really personable. I also enjoyed the garlic naan, which was warm and fluffy. Overall, a lovely dining experience. I'll definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently revisited Roti Indian Bistro after a couple of years and it did not disappoint! The lamb curry was filled with aromatic spices and cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, and I appreciated the warm, friendly atmosphere. The host was charming and actively engaged with the customers. It felt like a family-run establishment that cares about its patrons. I will eagerly look forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Roti is a lovely little Indian bistro! I ordered the thali and it was a delightful experience, filled with a variety of flavors and textures. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout our meal, making it a pleasant night out. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Roti felt underwhelming. The food was decent but not special, and unfortunately, it was also on the colder side when it got to my table. The staff was nice and tried to remedy things, but it couldn’t recover the experience for me. Perhaps I might give it one more shot in the future to see if it’s more flavorful. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Roti several times, and I keep coming back for their amazing food. The lunch combos are especially great value, and everything just tastes fresh and delicious. The service is friendly, and the atmosphere has a nice local vibe which I enjoy. Perfect for lunch or dinner out with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just an average experience at Roti Indian Bistro. The food tasted fresh but didn’t have as much of the authentic spices I'm used to. The service was good, but I expected something more memorable. I think it’s a great spot for casual dining, just don’t go in expecting Indian food with too much heat or complexity. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a decent meal here, but I expected more in terms of authenticity. The butter chicken was good, but it wasn't spicy enough for my taste. The naan was great, though! Service was prompt and friendly, but I might try a different dish next time for something more exciting. " (*Curated Review*)
