“ The chicken tika masala was my favorite dish out of everything I had. We got the small size. Recommended! Will be back to eat the full size ”
“ Just had an amazing meal here at Roots. The saag was amazing! Loved the butter chicken and spiced lamb as well! Make sure to also get the cheese naan. 5 stars ”
“ Amazing!!!! Delicious food.! I was pleasantly surprised with the taste. It was a perfect balance and combination of flavor and spiciness and freshness. The service was great and people were really kind and nice. I got a dosa and really did not miss the coconut chutney at all. It is a MUST TRY. If I could, I would eat here almost everyday.! Everything in the plate was perfect and delicious. Thank you for the great food. ”
“ Delicious tandoori salmon. Served on top of a few greens and onions, so not quite a salad. Roti was hot and buttered. My daughter enjoyed her rustic chicken curry, which didnt have cream, so was lighter than usual. Service was fast and friendly. Furniture and back of the store could use a deep cleaning and some touching up. ”
“ Food was delicious! We visited Roots Indian Bistro two years ago and came back again it was just as amazing this time. The service was very friendly, the food was served quickly, and it tasted fantastic. Well definitely stop by again on our next trip! ”
“ This was my first time eating Indian food and everything was delicious. We ordered the vindaloo dumplings, butter chicken, chicken biryani, and the garlic naan. I would definitely come back! ”
“ Had a really cute first date here.. didnt mean to have dinner here but the restaurant we planned to eat at was closed next door so we just walked in here and this was just meant to be! Everything from food to ambiance to the service was a 1010! They definitely made it a night to remember. But honestly I will be coming back and showing it to all my friends. Nothing to complain about at all.. Navasa I think was the hostess there, she was super sweet and even got us dessert on the house. Ill definitely be coming back! And the vegan options were amazinggggg and my date really loved the lamb and chocolate coconut dessert. I ended up getting the Veggia Fun Chana Masala 1010 ”
“ Fast service, great food and flavors, personally loved the genuine touch by the owner Paramjeet and our hostessserver. We had a great time with our family of 11 they were able to accommodate and seat us all together. Although its a small space, it felt nice to be able to try out a fusion of traditional north indian dishes and the speed of items being delivered was impressive. I would def. recommend checking this place out. ”
