We love the chicken tikka masala and the butter lamb. Don't forget to order some naan. Delish! My husband and I go there at least once every two weeks!

I didn't realize Lakeland had an Indian food. My husband and I always went to Tampa for Indian. This place, has by far better food, then the places in Tampa. It is spicy, but I love spicy food. I look forward on going back with friends and family. It was a wonderful place to go for an early Valentine's day... More

Nice atmosphere and the food was good. I like a little more spice but understand they might need to cater to a variety of palates. This is a real "home cooking" type of restaurant. Fun people offering service with a smile. They offer free parking.

The food and service here is wonderful. You cannot go wrong with the lunch special. All of the sauces are delicious, though I usually opt for the spinach. If you moved here from a big city where diverse restaurants are plentiful, you can almost pretend that you are back in urban digs at Cafe Roti.

Have been to this restaurant a few times over the last three years ( reason being its the only Indian restautant in L akeland ) the food was just ok , nothing special, and wine was warm . The last time we went they must have changed cooks as it was terrible and unedible, it made us feel quite sick... More

I think we went in August. We went for lunch. Odd setup. Small menu but the soup was really good and our meal was good as well.

Everything on the lunch buffet is delicious, the Chicken Tandoori is always perfect, and goes good with Kingfisher beer. I can't get enough naan!

What a find in Polk county where there seems to be no palate. My husband and I went for lunch on a Saturday(06/09/12) and were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Decorated in what looks to be a turn of the century English with Indian themes running through and pleasant music with a lot of sitars wasn't so loud that you... More
