I moved from Farmington Hills and their buffets were better, even post covid. Troy indian buffets are a mixed bag too like everywhere. Its a sad state everywhere for food lovers. I would gladly pay more for flavor or complexity in indian buffet dishes after tasting delicious veg indian dishes. And im sure if you order something specific off the menu it might be better here and elsewhere. But im going to rate based on the buffet, as we should advocate change.

No soup, sombar or rasaam? -1 star Rice dishes lacked flavor and herbs, shout out to the missing vegetable biryani standard fare -1 star No complex veg dishes, place was cold, wasn't shown tablet unsure if charged for tip? Deep fried broccoli instead of cauliflower was that to save a few pennies? -1 star

I could go on but..

Weekend lunch buffet only at 12:30pm and not earlier like other places start at least 11:30 or 12pm. Definitely not worth waiting for, but they had their one chance and got their one review.

Thank all things good that I didn't bring wife here, totally disappointed.

Several places down the road better even though not as good as Farmington Hills, way more worth going to for same price...
