I just moved here and was pleasantly surprised. Butter Chicken was great, packed with spice? and exactly how I have had it at other places I have loved. Garlic Cheese Naan was perfect. Portions are good for most things I thought, except the entree for the price. Yogurt and Tamarind Chutney were generous. I will be ordering again.

Aloo naan was tasty. It was just one bread though. They packed everything very carefully and added different sauces. I appreciate it.
But, the main issue was with the Chicken Tikka Salad. It's missing the garlic croutons. Chicken pieces taste good, but overall the taste is a little bland because of too many carrots with only a few pieces of chicken cubes

I love ordering from Essence of India! Their Butter Chicken is always packed full of flavor and has the perfect spicy level. And the Garlic Cheese Naan is the perfect pairing. So much cheese unlike alot of cheese naan that I've had. My mouth is watering just typing this review. I need to order again.

Just wow. First time eating here and the food was unbelievably delicious. My new favorite restaurant. The Essence Lamb Curry was just the perfect blend of herbs and spices and with Garlic Naan so comforting and delicious. 10/10
