★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1What a great spot for Indian food! Service was great and the food was absolutely delicious, very filling, and well worth the price. We got Chicken Biriyani, Chicken Tikka Masala, Roti, and Cheese Naan. They seem new to the neighborhood so certainly check it out. 10/10 thank you!
April 25 · Janet YangFirst time trying Indian food—and wow, Bhojan delivered! The flavors were out of this world. You can tell the spices are authentic and carefully balanced. The tandoori chicken was smoky, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the chicken chop had this perfect char that just melted in my mouth. Everything felt fresh and full of love. The staff was super welcoming too. Highly recommend if you want a real taste of Indian cuisine done right! OH LAWD!!
April 23 · Pierre ReviewsSuch a cozy place! We’ve already come back for the second time — the food is so delicious that we just couldn’t stay away. We highly recommend trying the Butter Chicken and the cheese naan — absolutely delicious! The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for the wonderful experience and the incredible food!
April 27 · Yelyzaveta LysenkoI used to eat here when it was another Indian food place, I had hoped the quality was the same and that only the name changed. BOY WAS I WRONG. So disappointing. Everything tastes and looks watered down and the "dessert" that came with the food is laughable at best. I paid 60$ for inedible food. 😡
May 19 · Elizabeth WareThe food has such deep flavor. It’s amazing. The naan is the best I have ever had. The saag and tika is awesome.
