Absolutely incredible! Top tier food. Butter, mango and korma chicken were delicious. Naan breads were great. The hospitality we received especially towards our little one was unmatched.

I visited Basmati’s for the very first time with colleagues for lunch on a weekday. I had vegetarian biryani while others had other dishes, including meat dishes. While all of us had a good time, I struggled with my dish because it was more hot / spicy than I could tolerate. I had asked for medium spicy. The staff member explained that I should have asked for mild!! The portion of vegetarian biryani was huge (see photos) and it was quite tasty! The naan (which others had) looked very good too - see photos.

I was there yesterday celebrating my husband birthday and we have such a nice time! The place looks cute and warm (highly appreciated during these days). I order Saag Paneer and it was delicious! Nice and friendly costumer service! Definitely coming back!

I’ve lived just across the road for almost a year and have driven past this place so many times—finally stopped in today and I’m glad I did! The experience was fantastic. The staff and chef were incredibly friendly, and you can really feel the great rapport they have with each other, which adds to the welcoming atmosphere. The food was delicious—authentic, full of real ingredients, and not thickened or processed to look more filling. I’ll definitely be back!
