Karishma Lunch Buffet

I returned to Karishma Indian Bistro to try their lunch buffet ($7.99).

As in my last visit, the restaurant's two large screen TVs were playing some type of Indian MTV. I still don't think this is going to appeal to everyone and could turn away some customers.

The buffet is about standard size for what you often find at Indian restaurants. I started with some salad. The ingredients were kept separately so you could pick and choose what you wanted. All the veggies were fresh and crisp. The buffet also has basmati rice, pieces of naan, and a number of Indian entrees and appetizers. There were both meat and vegetarian options, including lamb curry, chicken tikka masala, and tandoori chicken. All of the food was also very fresh. The meats were very tender and you could cut them with a fork rather than a knife. The sauces are flavorful. For the price, you certainly get a good value. I would recommend this lunch buffet.

Service was very good. My water glass was kept full and the staff was friendly.

They do have an expanded buffet on the weekends which might be interesting to see what they add.
