We got the chili paneer, chicken kardhai, daal makhani, and lamb chops and they were all delicious! We will definitely come back. The server was so nice and attentive. You must try!

I never thought I would love Indian food—but time and time again, it surprises me in the most beautiful way. ✨ This time I ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, garlic Naan, and Panjabi Baingan Bharta (medium - spicy) and some rose/glass noodles with ice cream thing (I didn't like it) Overall Good good! So many dishes are thoughtfully vegetarian 🌱, full of rich spices, warmth, and soul. Every bite feels nourishing, comforting, and joyful. Food has such a gentle way of opening our hearts and expanding our horizons.

My friend and I visited Manzil for the buffet. It was meh at best. Definitely prefer the buffet at Indian Cuisine on 34th. We would revisit Manzil again, but would order off the menu. The one waiter was very busy but was very polite. The buffet was not worth the cost. Positives: The restaurant and bathrooms were immaculate. The atmosphere is lovely and would be a great setting for an evening date. The tamarind was thin but the flavor was good, and yogurt was great. Solid highlights were the chicken curry and the chana masala. Not so great: Overall, the buffet selection was minimal. There was zero naan to be found- so we had naan of that. The temperature of the food was barely warm. The overall reliable flavors and spices were missing from nearly every dish. The mint chutney tasted flat and more like cilantro and lacked overall freshness. The onion chutney was bland like old onions and it didn't bring any of the usual spicy brightness.

We dined here based on the near 5 stars we seen in reviews. For my experience im not sure it deserved a 5 star. I believe if our server was familiar with Indian food our diner woukd ha e been a 5 star. Let's start with appetizer . We ordered the cauliflower and some of them seemed like freshly fried and seasoned but majority of the plate seemed as though it was a reheat.. possibly what was leftover from lunch service didnt go well and so it was fried a second time to reheat to serve at dinner. Some of the fried cauliflower was so hard fried I could have broken a tooth on it.. was like eating a rock. Now for dinner the lamb vindaloo was not spicy at all..very dull. Vindaloo is best at a spicy level. I should have gotten a hint when the waitress did not even ask what level of spice we wanted the Vindaloo. Most Indian restaurants will always ask what level of spice. The Pichi Mirchi kebabs were spicier than the Vindaloo and we were not even asked for a level of spiciness on that either. The basic jalapeño spice outbeat the bland Vindaloo. I woukd definitely order the Pichi Mirchi again it was so tender and delicious. We also order the Spicy Garlic naan.. it was also boring nonstick an

I enjoyed dining here! It's a lovely fine dining Indian restaurant in Gainesville. The food is great and pretty authentic. I highly recommend mango lassi, dal makhni and paneer tikka - they were absolutely delicious 😋 Will be back definitely! Edited... I love their chola bhatura- the bhatura is very soft from inside and crispy and doesn't look oily. We didn't like the papdi though, it could have been better.
