Shri Ganesh — Restaurant in Colorado Springs

So much to say…all positive. Small business family owned and run😃. Before getting to the food: nice atmosphere with more modern decor than many Indian joints, not a bunch of dusty stuff and pics of Hindi gods and goddesses. Clean and very pleasant with music that was not overpowering. Ladies room: Did I clean this? Thought maybe I did because I clean and then I detail. I’m a corner checker and these corners checked out. I couldn’t find a flaw. Servers were happy, helpful, attentive, and working to please in my experience. I don’t want to go out and work for a pleasant experience; and I have done that at other restaurants, but not here. I sampled the house made and available to be purchased hot sauce, pickled lime hot sauce, and pickled chili sauce. I never leave with a restaurant’s sauce… but today I adopted little pickled lime sauce and big brother hot sauce, and cradled them all the way home! I don’t eat meat and I have to have gluten free. There is a huge gluten free selection and vegetarian selection compared to most restaurants. I haven’t had an appetizer in years because so much is fried, but here I ordered the gluten free fried veggies with dipping sauce and it was yummy, crispy and fresh. My husband ordered the garlic naan and loved the spice saying that there was no skimping on the garlic. For my entree I had the salmon currie. I wasn’t sure how currie and salmon would marry, but it was a match made in heaven. Red currie which was complex and spicy (I ordered the medium spice), which paired well with my Malbec. The salmon was expertly cooked and a generous portion. I am not a rice lover but loved their basmati rice. My husband ordered the chicken Korma and was impressed with it saying it was flavorful, complex, and bold. This is my new favorite restaurant and they offer happy hour (half off drinks-for my friends who know it’s 5 o’ clock everywhere). I will be back to order salmon as the protein with other traditional Indian...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Shri Ganesh, and I can confidently say that it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delightful, the service was friendly and respectful, and the overall cleanliness of the place left a lasting impression.

Shri Ganesh is the best Indian food I have had across the country. This is always a special visit when my wife and I are able to dine-in as we normally order it to0go since we have kids.

Food: While we have our favorite dishes, this time we both tried something new. We will always start off our order with the vegetable samosa. If you've never had these, you should! they are huge, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. This time we ordered the Chicken Jalfrezi (medium) and Chicken Bhuna (hot). Both dishes were new to us. Amazing flavor profile and balanced on spice levels. The plates were served with a generous portion of Indian rice. And, of course, fresh and warm naan bread. Menu prices are a tad high, BUT the portions are quite large and we always have leftovers for another meal (so its actually much more reasonable).

Service: While we usually carry-out, this trip my wife and I were celebrating a birthday and had a babysitter for the kids. We got to enjoy ourselves in the restaurant. The service is great with attentive and knowledgeable staff. The owner, Raj, often walks around chatting with guests to ensure they are happy and satisfied. He takes great pride in the quality of his food and service by sharing his cultural dishes.

Atmosphere: Large restaurant space with several tables for parties of all sizes. Tables are spaced out enough to have intimate conversations without having to talk over other tables.

Luckily we live close and order about once a month. I love Indian food and travel quite extensively for work. I will usually try out a local Indian restaurant where ever I am, but Raj and Shri Ganesh have set the bar so high that I judge every other place to this standard...while some have come close, none have surpassed the quality and care of...
