Definitely forgot to take pictures. The food is always amazing there! I got the butter chicken and my friend got the curry chicken with the garlic naan! Only thing that I will say is that there’s only one waiter so it took a while for us to actually get our orders taken and for us to also get our checks. Other than that it was a great meal very warm feeling and I will definitely be going back again!

I love foods from this restaurant. While keeping traditional taste in mind, they also have different and unique tastes then other Indian restaurants. I find the food they make here much healthier. Everything is fancy and clean.
But I am giving 2 stars only because the own/manager of the store Is too cold. He offended me by saying we shouldn’t come back to the restaurant, when I asked him to adjust some ingredients due to allergies. I guess, according to owner/manager, the chief are too busy take care of costumer’s health.
When we about to leave the restaurant. The own accept to make the changes

We've been looking for a local Indian place. Found Indian Oven on here and was definitely pleased.
We ordered the Makhni bread and Samosa for appetizers. Didn't think I was a chutney fan, but both the mango chutney that came with the makhni bread and the coriander (cilantro) chutney were amazing and paired perfectly with their corresponding dishes.
My date got the tandoori mixed grill and I ordered the lamb vindaloo both of us got medium spice level and it was perfect heat for our moderate taste buds.
Of course I had to try his as well so I could review it ;).
The lamb was so tender

We ordered the tandoori chicken tikka masala, palak paneer, veggie navratan korma and the Kheer for dessert. Overall, the food was delicious and I would order from this restaurant again. The star was the korma as it was very creamy and a nice blend of flavors. We also kicked up the spice level on the paneer, which we made medium and indeed it was spicy (we usually can handle fairly spicy food too), which I enjoyed. All of our other dish were mild, so not really all that spicy. The masala was interesting in that the chicken really had the smoky tandoori flavor and was mixed in with tomatoes and

I have been comng to this restaurant for 22 years. The food is outstanding, the owner is friendly and generous, and the staff are timely and present. Take-aways are just as good as dinner in the restaurant. The flavours are mind-blowingly amazing, no matter what you get. I highly recommend this restaurant. It's my favourite place in Columbus.

This food is absolutely sensational! I enjoyed every single item that was ordered, this was not only the best Indian food I have ever tasted but some of the BEST OVERALL food I have EVER tasted. I just recently relocated to Columbus and I cannot wait to have a formal lunch/dinner here. We ordered the Chicken tikka masla, AMAZING!! Chicken Spinach, which is in a phenomenal curry sauce. Butter chicken, was the perfect recommendation for children who want less heat, even I was eating her dish. The Samosa was delicious and the sauce made it even better! Plus they added a bonus Mango pudding, DEVINE

The ambiance of the place is on point. The soups are made homemade and you can tell. Soooooo good! They present you with a hot towel to wipe your hands. The prices are fair. The smells in here is tantalizing. It's very clean. I got tomato soup and my daughter got lentil soup. We shared shrimp and spinach dish. This is a must try if you love India food. We will be back Bc it's like crack.

This little restaurant was right across the street from our hotel so an easy choice for dinner. I asked for something that was like butter chicken (my favorite) only with lamb. The server suggested Lamb Korma and it was SO good. The rice was perfect. I had asked that our dishes be extra mild and this was just right. I didn't like the onion salad we ordered because it was too spicy for me to eat; I should have said something but I didn't so that is on me. We tried a new kind of naan, Keema, with ground lamb. It was good but not to our taste particularly.
The kheer was wonderful, as was

Food was cold , lacked flavor and I found what looked like a piece of bacon in my butter Chicken . I asked the owner what it was and he couldn't say for sure. No compensation was given. They charge for every little thing and didn't even have the proper chutney for samosa. Also price was high for size of portions. Some of the worst Indian I had. Salt was excessive in the food. We asked for Nan bread and they came out with a small basket not enough for one person. And there was two of us. I called the business afterward to speak to the manager. I was informed no managers were available

Visiting from L.A. This place is cute and classy with super friendly staff and AMAZING food. I was told it's the best Indian food in Cbus, and I believe it. We had a party of 7 so we ordered a bit of everything to share. It was all so good. I don't think anything was bad at all. My fav dish has to be the garlic naan and eggplant. It's always my go to for indian food.

My friend invited me to visit here. I don't know much about Indian food but I do know it was very tasty and seemed authentic.
To start off we ordered garlic naan bread. I forgot to get a picture, but it was lovely and warm and fresh! And came with a sort of pesto like sauce.
For entrees I got the chicken tiki masala mild. You can order the spice level however you prefer. The rice was shared. It was also very good, I probably could have done a little more spice actually.
The restaurant was decorated very nicely and service was great. I wasn't sure about the parking situation since

Indian Oven has gone through many good changes. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you see that the new owners introduced very eye-pleasing decorations throughout the entire area. My wife and I went to the restaurant for lunch on a weekday. The service was polite, professional and quick. The food was outstanding. My special request (to have veggies instead of rice) was accepted and honored. We plan to go back to Indian Oven.

Absolutely delicious food and wonderful service! We had a party of 3 adults and one child after a day at the Franklin Conservatory and we were famished. The onion salad was absolute perfection!!! My Chicken Tika Marsala was also fantastic! The others in my party both enjoyed their respective Beef and Lamb dishes. Staff was super friendly and accommodating, will definitely be returning!

Yesterday I was experiencing some really intense grief after losing a loved one, to the point where I could hardly move--let alone take care of myself. I live near Indian Oven but have never ordered from them before, so I gave it a try. I placed an order for delivery. After about 20 minutes I received a text from DoorDash saying that my order was cancelled by the driver. I had already been charged for the meal, so I called to make sure I would be refunded.
I was not expecting to receive my food, but immediately the person on the other line was really accommodating and kind. They called the driver

Ordered some spicy lamb curry and vege samosas and they were delicious! Lamb was very tender and super delicious! The potato and pea samosas were crispy on the outside and nice and tasty on the inside. I had to buy the tamarind chutney and that was my only complain because the tamarind chutney usually comes with the samosas! But other than that, I'm very pleased with my dinner tonight! And thanks to Grubhub for the prompt delivery too! Food was still piping hot!

I did not know they had dine in available, so I did curb side pickup. My wife and I both got the chicken curry. Her curry was medium and it had a major kick to it. It was delicious and makes me scared to try hot. The gentleman man who brought out the food was very nice and was complimenting my car which made me smile. I will for sure be back and we'll dine in next time.

I haven't eaten here in ages but forever ago, before I lived in Columbus, this was the Indian restaurant all my friends spoke about. I think I've only dined in once, but I ordered delivery last weekend and it certainly hit the spot.
I got enough food to feed me twice, always the best way to go when ordering Indian food. I got an order of samosas for an appetizer, some garlic naan, and the vegetable navratan korma (which is always my go-to entree). It didn't take too long at all to arrive, especially being on a weekend evening. I think I ordered around seven and I was eating by

It's the best Indian place overall in my experience. Great value all around in terms of portions. Best entrees, amazing samosa, and the literal best chutney on the face of the planet. The owner remembers us every time, and every person working there is the nicest. I haven't been there for lunch yet in the ten years we've been going here, but I get to shift that. Tonight I had the best lamb chops I can recall ever having.
