Nice Indian buffet with excellent food. Good vegetarian options and delicious food. The owner brought by fresh samples for us to try. Good stop for lunch.

Went with our friends for their 21st anniversary! The food was excellent! Portions are fair for the price! The Service was impeccable! I feel like this is by far the best Indian Food restaurant in Utah that I have been to! Everything from the food, service, and environment was just excellent! Well done India Palace! The only thing I may consider being updated would be your menus. Not because of the lack of food to choose from, not at all! The selection was great, but also overwhelming! Now this is just my opinion! Some, like having so much to choose from! Still a five star all the way!

Great for the lunch buffet. Not a ton of options but good options. Frequent eater here and never disappointed. Would recommend to anyone in the area needing a quick lunch buffet

Food was very delicious, rich in flavor. Honestly what surprised me the most was the mango smoothie. I ordered it expecting a normal smoothie you can get at any place that will taste well… like a regular smoothie. It was extremely delicious, I’m not exactly sure what makes it different from others but it’s very rich in flavor and very good. I didn’t think I would get full seeing the curry and rice although it looks like small portions it absolutely is not. You will leave full and happy and even have more food left over. Service was very attentive and they regularly came to see if our cups were full and if we were content. Our server Prince was charming. I highly recommend coming here and will definitely come again.

India Palace has been our go-to Indian restaurant in Provo for years, and it’s always amazing. The food is authentic and flavorful, with perfect spice and freshness every time. The staff is friendly, and the cozy atmosphere makes it even better. Highly recommend!

Appealing interior decorations and fast food service don’t make up for non-personnable service and uninspiring cuisine. India Palace has a prime location on Center Street, and judging by other reviews and signage at the front door has garnered an avid following from local restaurant-goers. We were seated quickly and presented with menus, which is composed of what you’d normally expect from an Indian restaurant. Having selected a couple of curries we admired the interior, which is aging but fairly well-kept and fits the theme of the restaurant well. The food arrived quickly and the rice and naan provided were plentiful, though the ratio of curries to rice was lacking. The portions of curries were a tad smaller than I would have expected for the price point, and the flavors showed certain American influences. The Chicken Tiki Masala, for example, came in a sauce with significant notes of tomato, which dominated the flavor profile and obscured whatever other traditional spices may have been used. The two other curries that we got seemed equally Americanized; they were both good (though the meat varied, one curry had drier meat while another was appropriately moist, YMMV) but just about average; nothing particular special and nothing particularly detrimental. The service, though attentive, is severely lacking in giving customers any kind of personal connection to the server or establishment. Our server seemed to rush through interactions with us and created a sense of pressure in the ordering process, deferring us hurriedly to the three or four most commonly-known Indian curries when asked about his personal favorite dishes from the menu and then immediately asking which of them we would be ordering. All of these factors combine to a rating of three stars. Not great, not awful, but nothing exceptionally impactful either. (Price range indicated includes final costs after taxes and gratuity)

Great food for a really good price. I wish you could get a beverage besides water though, and maybe get dessert too. It seems the all you can eat buffet doesn't offer either one.

Nice ambiance! Lovely staff / owner Their regular rice that comes with all curry/ korma dishes is the. best. rice. I have had in a long time Exceptional flavor 10/10 for the rice Their naan (garlic and regular) is MUCH better than Bombay House's naan Better texture and overall outcome Their veggie korma is nice Overall, better than Bombay House! I will definitely be back

Visited India Palace twice while in Provo last week and both visits were outstanding! Great Saag Paneer and very good Naan! Fresh, flavorful and filling! Saag was served with rice and offers plenty of food for a hearty appetite! I have no criticism to offer. India Palace nailed my meal both times!

I got the appetizers sampler. All were pretty good; nothing really stood out to me. The chicken was a bit dry, though. I think it was nice to be able to try so many things all at once, but I don't think anything is that good to the point that I would order it again, since I don't usually get appetizers. The lunch special was a good deal ($15.99). There were 3 different curries. I don't know what curry each was, but I liked the red and the orange one best. There were two pieces of naan bread, which have always been my favorite part of Indian meals. They also had this orange-colored rice that was very interesting--it tasted sweet, which was not expected. It was my first time eating something like that in Indian restaurants, and I liked it! The portion of the lunch special was quite generous, and I couldn't finish all. I wish they would make the portion smaller and cheaper. I'd say it's best to order 2 and share among 3 people. Good and quick service. There weren't a lot of people when we went around 11:30 am. The server was friendly. They have many cool decorations.

I'd say this is more like 3.5 stars compared to other Indian restaurants that I've given 4, but still pretty solid so I'll round up. Butter chicken - it got better as I kept eating it Shrimp tikka masala - kind of tasted like tomato soup Neither were very spicy even though we asked for as hot as possible

India Palace is still the best Indian Food in Utah. I actually haven't found better outside of Utah. Naan is top notch. Saag is prepared superb.

The top of the list for your Indian Food cravings. I tried lamb FOR THE FIRST TIME. It was soooo good. You like chicken, have an adventure, try lamb. Rice was to die for. Perfect garlic naan. And a mango lassi. Service is on point and atmosphere is authentic. You need to eat here.

Been there several times. The food is excellent, but I did notice that the last time I was there, the service dropped off a bit. I miss the buffet.

We live Indian Food and this is our favorite spot to come. Food is delicious and staff is super friendly. We had chicken tikka masala and chicken vandaloo with garlic naan and bhatura. All of it was SO GOOD! Fast service too. Was able to walk right in on a Friday night and went straight to a table. Food was served quickly too.

My favorite Indian restaurant in Provo. Everything was spiced very well, and the portions were generous. We ordered saag paneer, kebabs, naan, and chicken curry. Everything was perfect. The kebabs have a different texture than what I was used to, like perhaps they had tapioca starch or something similar in the mix, but they were still very good. The naan were large, and they did not skimp on the paneer in the saag paneer which was a nice surprise. Lots of cheese! The curries also came with rice, which was cooked well. We had take-out. Will have to dine in some time soon.

They have amazing Indian food! Don't be confused when you try to find them online. They are owned by curry pizza, but they are NOT curry pizza, they are a truly authentic Indian food. I had the paneer masala, and me and a friend shared the onion bhaji appetizer. So tasty! She had the lamb Rogan josh and said it was really tasty. We also shared garlic naan. My only gripe is that it is so hard to find them on the internet because all that comes up is curry pizza. It didn't use to be this way, and I wish they'd go back to having a separate web site. Because it makes it seem like India palace now is just curry pizza and I don't want to eat curry pizza, I want authentic Indian food which is what they serve at India palace. (I almost didn't go back to the restaurant because I was so confused about what I was seeing on the internet,and I'm sure other people have had the same problem. )

Delicious. The fish coconut korma, samosas, and peshwari naan were all incredible. The raita dip was a great addition. It wasn't busy and the restaurant was open late enough to allow us to comfortably have a late dinner without feeling rushed. I especially appreciated that it was warm inside, not cold like many restaurants.

Chris C.

Yelp
Food was amazing and the service was great! I've been wanting to come here for years and have never gotten around to it. So sad that I've been missing out on this amazing food. I will definitely be back. Only critique would be that the Garlic Naan could use some salt to help bring out the flavor of the Naan, but it was still amazing. Highly recommend.

Best Indian food in town and by far the best service! I love everything here. So much flavor. Really miss the buffet but the new lunch special option is a good substitute. Can't wait to check out the live music they are featuring mid week.

Didn't even get to eat, walked out. Was disrespected. Mistreated my significant other, impatient, it was a table of 4. We walked in, waited 15 minutes, it's 2:08pm (lunch special sign says it ends at 2:30pm). He tries to make up on the spot that Fridays it ends at 2pm. Is extremely pushy and rushes my significant other, speaks to us in 1-word phrases, "bread? Bread?" . He disrespected my vegetarian friend by stating he can't accommodate him on the lunch special even though it states veg or no veg options. Guy Fiery might have visited this place and seems like this guy had some type of ego trip. Worst Indian restaurant experience ever.

Just soooo bland. I tried India Palace about 8 years ago and it was bland then too but I hoped it had improved. I just don't know why you would go here when there's other Indian places close by that are much better.

We went for a friend's birthday. They had a lot of good dishes but i was never a big fan of Indian food. I did find some things I really liked so I'm going to try it again. Thanks

I usually love India Palace, but after getting one of my favorite dishes yesterday, I am disappointed. The coconut chicken korma is typically packed full of flavorful spices. But yesterday, Valentine's Day, I ordered takeout. I have to say, the coconut chicken korma tasted like the kitchen was cutting corners because of the rush. The chicken and sauce were bland, and not at all what I was expecting from my favorite dish, especially for $40. I am hesitant to return.

The lunch special has all three of my favorite Indian dishes: Chicken Tikka, Veggie Korma and Chicken Vindaloo including rice and naan to soak up every drop of the delicious sauces. Additionally, the mango rice is like dessert!

We went in and it was surprisingly slow for how amazing the food was. The service was super good and we got our food fast. My favorite was the garlic naan. I also got the butter chicken curry and it was perfect! You can choose your spice level which is great when you're with others who might like spice less or more than you do! 10/10 would recommend. Perfect price for the amount of food you get. I had leftovers for lunch the next day.

If I could rate lower than 1 star I would. I normally wouldn't eat at a restaurant with only 4 stars rating on here but we were craving Indian food and Bombay House doesn't open until 4pm. The garlic naan was so bland and tasted like an old tortilla. The tikka masala was just okay, but serving size was so small and overpriced. When I told the server about the naan he replied saying it was the most popular dish and they've never had complaints. He refused to take it off my bill because I had eaten a few bites. He said if I ate only one bite he would have replaced it. Never again.

Yelp
Service excellent. The food was incredible. Large portions full of flavors. I had the chicken korma and it melted in my mouth. One dining companion had chicken tiki masala (medium spicy) and I had a bite and the flavors were amazing. Other had a (gluten free) shrimp dish that she said was delicious. The garlic naan was the best I have had. My dining partners raved about the coffee and I sampled and the raves were well deserved. I am from out of town but if I come back this is my have to go to place to make the trip complete.

Having a staycation here in Provo and was lucky enough to find this jewel of an Indian restaurant in the midst of some eclectic shops. Having had many dining experiences I can truly say that this food is authentic and amazingly delicious. The waiter was a jewel also. Could not have asked for better food or service. Highly recommend even if you have to go out of your way!!

Service was horrible by the man that seated us. I was the only girl in the group of 4 and the guys I was with didn't like how the man was being rude to me so we decided to leave and got pizza next door.

Fantastic Indian food! If you are looking for authentic food go here, and get the hot options! They will tell you it's very spicy, and it is, but they will also tell you that for medium. They seem to want to make sure those who aren't very used to spicy food enjoy what they get, so keep that in mind. The restaurant itself is alright, it's got dimmed light and the environment is fine, nothing bad, but nothing super crazy. I wouldn't go here for an especially fancy dinner. The service is good, but many of the servers talk a limited amount and may not follow the "norm" of other servers (my server directed multiple parties together at the same time, and seemed to group us together more than normal). That being said everyone is incredibly polite. This isn't a problem for me at all but if you are into dining for the experience beyond the food (for example, a nicer dinner after a fancy event) this may not be it for you. That being said, if you are there for the food, this is a great Indian food spot! I would recommend it.

Food was below average, no taste in vegetables and naan served was also looking stale

This place is so delicious, the flavor is on point. Everything we ate here was so good. The naan bread is a great portion to share with others. I would recommend everything on the menu! To top it off the service was amazing! They are so accommodating and kind! I can't say enough great things about this place! I also love the location and it's very nice inside.

When I first heard of Curry and Pizza being mixed together I was cautiously optimistic to say the least. However, it is absolutely amazing and is a hidden gem IMO. Came back to try their other dining options and was very impressed. We ordered the samosas, chicken tikka misala, and the bindhi special. We liked the bindhi special the best! However, it was all very good and would definitely recommend.

Nicole M.

Yelp
Their chicken tikka masala is the best, but their rice is pure magic. Every once in a while they overcook the naan, but otherwise their garlic naan is perfection and an absolute must. Don't forget to end with a serving of their cardamom ice cream.

Yelp
I enjoy trying Indian food restaurants when I travel. The vegetable samosas were incredible! Crisp on the outside--flavorful and moist on the inside. The paneer tikka masala was a bit on the sweeter side but we ate all of it. The naan bread is huge! One could feed 2-4 people. Grab a mango lassi to wash it down! So delicious!

Really dang good :) Super good mango lassi- best I've ever had, phenomenal vegetable samosas Everything great, wonderful service

This pace does not disappoint! Wonderful, prompt, and friendly service. The restaurant itself wasn't a feast for the eyes, but that doesn't matter. The food is phenomenal! I had the coconut korma. Flavor explosion! The heat is exactly the level of what you expect when you tell them what you want. Hands down the best naan I've ever had (including the naan that comes with the bread service at Sanaa in Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge). If you're in the Utah Valley and want a fantastic meal, go to India Palace!

Bombay house was super packed on a Friday night so we chose to go here instead. I was sadly underwhelmed. First of all the portions are very small for the price, which I don't mind as long as it's quality food but this fell short. We ordered our curry hot, which to anyone who eats Indian curry knows that means it's supposed to be spicy, this was the most un spicy curry I've ever tasted! When we asked for more spice be put into it the lady put down a bottle of Mexican hot sauce... naan was fine, and mango lassi was good. Save yourself the trip and head to bombay house instead

I've always liked the food and the ambiance of the place. In the past, I would have given it 4 or 5 stars. But today, I've just decided the value is not there. I understand inflationary pressures, but $15 for a small bowl of lentils and rice is a bit ridiculous.

We have been coming here for years and we're so impressed and it tastes so so good. We parked in the public parking garage on the north side. We came around 6 and it was busy but they were really good at getting us seated and taken care of. Our favorites are the chicken tiki masala, paneer sag, garlic nan and samosa. The green sauce is so good. We love everything, including the art!

India palace is my favorite Indian food place in Utah county. I think they get overshadowed by Bombay House that is also in the area (both are great), but I actually prefer India Palace. India Palace is fairly easy to get seated, and the food is still really great. I've tried a number of items off of their menu, and I keep going back to the coconut lamb korma because it is to die for. The flavors are so incredible, aromatic, rich, creamy, you get the idea. The prices are standard for Indian food, and the food is more filling than you'd expect. I highly recommend pairing your meal with the mango lassi. The service is decent, but I think the amazing food trumps anything the service lacks. I have loved all of my many experiences visiting India Palace.

Elaine L.

Yelp
As soon as you walk in you can really smell the aroma of the spices and the place had a great atmosphere. I had the lunch special which consisted of three different types of curry dishes, rice, sweet rice, and naan. It was delicious and filling. Service was good too.

Look, y'all. I love me some Indian food. Specifically, Indian buffets. They are an awesome way to try a bunch of different dishes for an often remarkably low price. With that in mind, I took my cute 9 yr old son (and fellow foods-of-the-world connoisseur) to India Palace last weekend. We've been to several Indian restaurants and this would be our first time eating at this one. The decor is pretty sweet with lots of murals and interesting art. Also, peacocks as far as the eye can see! (-In the art and decor- not real ones.) Some googling revealed that the peacock is in fact the national bird of India, where it is seen as a symbol of grace and beauty and is believed to protect against all forms of negativity. Just a little knowledge bomb for a pre-meal review snack, haha. Aaaaanywho, we ordered chicken tikka and chicken curry. When asked what spice level we wanted, m'boy chose spicy and I chose mild because Indian "spicy" is spicier than your average "spicy" and I was pretty sure he forgot about that. (Pro tip: pay attention to your server's face when you make your selection. If they look surprised or doubtful, your mouth is going to be filled with the fires of Mordor.) They ended up mixing up our spice levels, which actually worked out okay since the spiciness was indeed a bit more than my little homie could handle. The flavors were good. The garlic naan wasn't quite as garlicky as I'm used to and we tried peshawari naan for the first time (it's filled with a sweet paste) and liked that. A little bit of the peshawari goes a long way and leftovers hold up really well. My favorite part of the meal was actually the rice! It was fluffy and well seasoned and it looked like confetti on a plate! As you might have noticed, we ended up ordering meals rather than trying the buffet; the reason being that I neglected to read the sign out front, clearly stating that the lunch buffet is only available on weekdays. You better believe I reprimanded myself in the bathroom mirror for that rookie mistake. The prices for the meals were standard for an Indian food restaurant; around $13-18 per meal, which included rice (and free refills- which was a pleasant surprise).
