I don’t usually write Google reviews — maybe just a handful in the past — but I felt compelled to share my thoughts after visiting this place. I ordered butter chicken, naan, and samosa chaat.

Coming from a North Indian background, I had certain expectations, especially seeing a dish like butter chicken on the menu. I wasn’t expecting perfection, but at least a decent, familiar North Indian flavor. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.

To be honest, the butter chicken tasted more like a South Indian curry — it had coconut in it, which I’ve never seen used in this dish before. While it’s fine to add a twist to classic recipes, I feel the essence of a traditional dish should still be preserved.

The naan was actually quite good — soft, fresh, and flavorful. I’d rate that part of the meal well. However, the samosa chaat was disappointing. It had no green chutney, which is usually a key component, and the outer layer of the samosa tasted more like a quesadilla tortilla than a traditional samosa crust. Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s how it felt.

Overall, I’m giving this place 1 star based on my experience. I saw the Google rating was 4.9, which honestly surprised me. It makes me wonder if the reviews are completely genuine.

I probably won’t return — not just because of my experience, but because I was passing through and don’t plan to stop again. If you’re traveling and craving a satisfying meal, I’d honestly recommend trying a local Mexican spot instead — you might have a...

I’m pretty sure I was born on the wrong continent, because I could easily trade any and all American food for a lifetime eating Asian. That includes everything from Japan and Korea over to India, and, of course, the Middle East, as all of these comprise the Asian spectrum of cuisine.

So when I spied a new Indian restaurant today in Amarillo, I quickly changed my plans to head home for a boring lunch. Nope, it was going to be Indian today, a cuisine I have come to love not just for some similarities to Thai, but also its unique fare.

Sai Indian did not disappoint in the least, and judging by the steady crowd of patrons entering and exiting, I’d say this place has quickly built up a clientele. Their Health Inspection Report of 97 is amazing in its own right, but their food goes over 100 effortlessly.

I ordered Aloo Gobi, as it is among my Indian faves, which amounts to cauliflower, potatoes, and tomatoes in a spicy curry sauce. It is served with a bowl of steaming Basmati rice. I also ordered a side of Roti, a gluten free and vegan alternative to Naan bread. I requested a 3 out of 5 on the spiciness scale, which was just enough to elicit a little sinus activity, but no sweating or crying.

Hats off to Sai Indian for offering a very long vegetarian menu alongside traditional omnivore options. They tell me they are very happy to adapt to vegan as requested. I’m thrilled to add this place to my short list of Amarillo favorites. I shall return,...
