If you’re looking for a flavor explosion that feels like a literal party in your mouth, Indian Delhi Palace is the place to be. From the moment the dishes hit the table, it’s clear that this isn’t just a meal it’s an experience.
The Stars of the Show
The curries here are the definition of comfort food done right.
• Butter Chicken & Tikka Masala: Both are incredibly rich and creamy, striking that perfect balance between savory spices and a smooth finish.
• The Naan Selection: This is where things get truly “out of this world.” Forget standard bread; their variety is staggering. Whether you’re craving the punch of Garlic, the sweetness of Onion-filled, or the hearty, spiced centers of Ginger, Potato, or Lentil-stuffed naan, each piece is charred to perfection in the tandoor.
Why You’ll Love It
• Authentic Textures: The rice is fluffy and fragrant, topped with fresh cilantro that cuts through the richn
ess of the gravies.
• Variety: The menu caters to everyone, from those who want a mild, buttery delight to those looking for deep, complex spice profiles.
• Perfect for Sharing: As seen in the spread, this is the kind of food meant to be enjoyed family-style, tearing off pieces of naan and diving into different bowls.

The food was very delicious. I really enjoyed the cheese pakora and aloo matar with garlic naan. My friend had chicken tikka, and she loved her meal as well. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

Overall, my experience here was ok. Here’s some thoughts on the food and first some lows: a had a lot of black rotted and slimy lettuce bits in the salad. I hate wasting food so I picked what I could out and ate it, but that was unpleasant. I didn’t like the taste and texture of the kheer. Some highs: I liked the tandoori chicken and Chana masala. The other dishes: lamb vindaloo, saag, and chicken Korma were ok. The vindaloo was very, very mild. I was hoping for some spice but I understand that in a buffet, a really spicy dish may not be well suited.
The service was very good with staff checking in frequently and clearing plates from the table and buffet line.
Decor was nice and there was some interesting decor pieces around.

Excellent atmosphere. Visited the restaurant couple of times. Food was tasty. Quantity was good. Staff were polite and courteous. They offer lunch buffet everyday between 11:30 am to 4:30 pm. The food was healthy, tasty, variety of dishes, not spicy, so everyone can eat. Must try spot if you are in Phoenix

I came with a group of my friends from our senior community for lunch buffet today (Wed. Nov. 19, 2025)
First of all, the server who seated us was not very friendly or cordial. Then, most of the buffet dishes were cold. The onion pakodas were limp and soggy. When I mentioned this to the server, there was no apology. She merely shrugged and walked away.
Secondly, when we asked if we could use separate credit cards to pay our individual bills, I was told that no more than 3 credit card transactions could be processed. No other restaurant has done this to us before. Our group eats at various restaurants on a regular basis.
Thirdly, the total bill of $225.65 was a rude surprise for 8 buffet lunches, $17.99 each. We paid by credit card.
The food alone was $147.67. That was correct. However she added a 18% service charge of $26.58 plus a tip of $32.23, making it a total tip of $58.81, so 39.8% tip for a buffet lunch. She never asked me if I wanted to add a separate tip on top of the 18% service charge. I had no time to check, so I paid the full amount.
Typically, the service charge is considered the tip (especially if there was a buffet and no extra work for the server).
Three years ago (July 2022), we celebrated an 80th birthday banquet at this location and we were happy with the service. JOJO was our contact person and did a great job of serving our needs back then. You can see our great 5 star Google review about that event in 2022.
This time, we are really disappointed and disgusted with the service. This practice of adding a tip in addition to a service charge without approval is unethical. It is not acceptable to add a 39.8% charge as a tip for a buffet lunch. Please see attached photo of the bill.
We may not come back or recommend your restaurant to anyone else after this negative experience.

This place doesn’t disappoint. Food is delicious everything including service was perfect..I am currently craving my left overs. Great place for vegetarian food.

Do not order from this place! The Tikka Masala comes with such a small portion of rice. In what world is this enough rice to support the amount of masala they give you? Nor can this feed a family. Other Indian restaurants give a full portion of rice to be paired with the masala. I do not recommend, they skimp on food!

I tried the lunch buffet on Sunday and it was excellent. I was happy with the multiple vegetarian options. I am not sure why there are some mixed reviews. All the food was very tasty and I highly recommend the garlic naan, paneer tikka masala, and daal. They had salads, desserts, and rice included in buffet as well. Weekend buffet was $17.99, so very reasonably priced.

Although this place has got poor google review, food was good. I believe they really need to work on their hospitality part as they clealry were understaffed. I had to repeatedly ask for refilling water. Another thing that I would like to point out is that the food was relatively spicier. I mean we ordered 6/10 spicy ️ level food but indeed got something like 9/10. I’m sure that many won’t be able to tolerate this level of spicy food. I hope they address these minor but obvious issues, and they can do really good.

Their garlic naan is so delicious. I loved the butter chicken, & the korma was great. lvl 1 spice for mild, 2 for medium, 3+ for hothot by what im used to, but their spice preference is 0-10! 10/10 would recommend, a great all-around experience, and good pricing. Loved the smooth jazz music playing, it wasn’t too loud which was nice.
