About
Indian food for us is almost like eating a slice of pizza on the streets of New York City. We eat Indian food three times a day, every day. There is no planning, no reservation necessary to eat our meals. We desired to present the same experience for our customers, real, homestyle cooked Indian food in a fast and casual environment. We want our guests to be able to decide to eat Chicken Tikka Masala just as fast and casually as they would a burger!
We offer a unique dining experience for our customers. Enjoy fresh and spicy Indian food in a casual and comfortable atmosphere.
All our curries are gluten free and nut free. We buy our produce from the local Farmers Market as much as possible.
Our food is from Northeast region of India, particular to the state of Bihar. We use many health beneficial spices and herbs in our cooking. The varieties of herbs and spices are customarily the same but their combination and the amounts we use are different for each dish. The varying combination of spices and the different techniques in which we cook gives distinctiveness to each dish.
Above all, we use a great deal of fresh vegetables and herbs, purchased from the local farmers market, which gives our food its individual flavors.
We serve rice and Roghani Naan, salad and cilantro chutney with majority of our meals. Roghani Naan is not tandoori naan and it is not quite a pita bread. It is a round yeast bread that falls between a traditional Tandoori Naan and a pita bread.
We offer non- vegetarian and vegetarian meals including many vegan options as well. We offer fresh, homemade desserts, all of which are made with cream cheese icing

a week agoI loved Cilantro its an awesome place with incredible authentic Indian fare. Yesterday was my first visit with my brother I had the Lamb Briyani and he had the Samosa Chat along with mango lassis. The food was so good, lamb was very tender and tasty with the rice and mint yogurt raita. The cilantro chutney was so fresh. Mango lassis sweet and refreshing. The service was top notch with the staff super friendly and accommodating. They also have extremely beautiful and tasty desserts with some slices of cheesecake and mostly these boxed cakes in their own plastic container about 6×6 in. They're visually stunning and taste even better I absolutely cannot reccommend this place enough I will be coming back soon. 10/10. Let me also comment on the comfortable atmosphere being contemporary in decor but also very cozy. Oh, and the prices are very affordable for the quality.

3 weeks agoThe decor inside was beautiful, I loved all the quotes on the walls. Amazing food! We had the eggs, vegetable samosas, butter salmon and butter chicken. Everything was delightful, especially the sauces! We took home some tiramisu cakes to try later and they were also tasty, made with chai tea instead of coffee, a unique twist. It’s family owned, one son was at the counter taking orders, and I assume it was his father walking around, chatting with customers and checking on how everything was tasting and if anything was needed. Amazing experience, will certainly come back for more.

3 months agoI’m usually not one to rave about service bc imo food is the most important thing but mustafa changed that for me!! He was so kind and attentive considering you order the food at the front counter and pay before you have your meal. But don’t let my first comment fool you, the food is absolutely delicious!!! Omg especially the deserts.. pls listen to them and also go to their bakery location in Raleigh. We got the pistachio cloud cake and I swear i dream about it lol. Not too sweet, moist, and decadent. Let the pictures speak for themselves— it’s cute for insta, tasty for the belly, and good on your wallet lol. Quick note, the mango lassi here is the best we’ve had here in NC, we’re from nyc. Trusttttttt.

6 months agoI am not a person who usually reviews restaurants but after i left the restaurant, i decided i will give a review asap. The food was delicious, presentation was great, ambience was amazing as well as the service. The owner is such a humble person. This is much different than the typical indian restaurants i have been before. My whole family loved eating here.
