There was fast, efficient, and courteous service. The bill was well within reason for the quality. Food and atmosphere reminds me of Kansas City.

It used to be excellent but I think they changed chefs. Still best Indian Cuisine in San Diego/Miramar and best deal on buffet in San Diego.

This place has delicious food and great lunch buffet prices. Highly recommended.I wish they serve the naan a bit quicker though.

This may be the best butter chicken I've ever had. The flavor is absolutely incredible. 100% will be back.

The friends and I always go here for lunch. It's not a bad deal at $10 a person. They have enough options for everyone even vegetarians - been here with friends who are and they like what Virsa has to offer. Anyhow, parking is tight here. Try to go on off hours only because this place has plenty of other restaurants as well. When you enter, they seat you right away and give you water. In addition, they ask how many garlic naan you want. If you're a party of 3, you get one basket.  If you're a party of 4, you get two baskets. But you can get as many as you want. They are yummy and can fill you up fast - so does their rice. It is a carb after all. I usually get some of the cabbage salad, chicken tikka masala, paneer, chicken curry, lamb curry and samosas. I've been here a few times so there's a chance that I'm mixing up what they have during lunch time.  In any case, everything is very flavorful. The chicken is tender and not dry. The samosas are vegetarian and filled with potato and other veggie goodness. The green sauce just makes it even better. Oh and they do have the fried vegetables too. Those fill you up but they are good to eat, especially when you dip it in the sauces. I can't recall if anything is spicy though. If that's the case, then that means nothing was. Overall, I've always been satisfied every time I go here. Can't wait to go back! More...

4.5 stars. This is good, solid, well made Indian food. No gimmicks, no fancy plating, decent portion sizes, all their laurels are on the fantastic flavor. Just really great food!! We weren't sure about the freshness of the buffet, so decided on a la carte. We ordered the chicken biryani, saag chicken, garlic naan and a masala chai. Biryani is fantastic. Would've preferred more chicken pieces, but the ones we had were beautifully cooked, the rice was light, fluffy and the spices were great. We asked for spicy and we got spicy! The raita was a sweet contrast :)Saag chicken was not the best looking dish, but the flavors hit hard. And the spicy flavor we asked for was delivered a 100%. Really well made. The garlic naan is definitely smaller than some of the other Indian restaurants, but it SMELLS and tastes of garlic. And any other garlic naan lover understands what I'm talking about here. It is also soft and fluffy, which is awesome. The chai was decent. I needed 3-4 sugar sachets cz I like sugar in my tea. Good way to end a hearty meal. We will be back here for the buffet because I bet it will as good as this meal!! This is now my second fav Indian restaurant in San Diego, Masala street being the first. More...

Had such a delish dinner here. The buffet food was spot on- although I am generally skeptical about buffets. Flavors were excellent, selection was great, and it was all for a very reasonable price. The host/waitress was so accommodating and kind to us. Really felt welcomed and cared for. Thanks so much. We will be back! More...

This is a review for the lunch buffet. I came here for a weekend lunch buffet with a friend. We were just looking for a quick lunch. Both of us didn't want to eat too much but it was so cheap so we didn't mind coming here for the buffet. Overall, lunch was good. There were maybe around 10 dishes total. A bit more than half were veggie (including salad). Dishes I liked were: spicy eggplant with potato and chicken curry. The garlic naan was served at the table maybe after 15 mins. All in all, good solid lunch and very good price. More...

I joined in for a karaoke night with my grand parents before my flight out. I want to give this place 3.5 if I can. They had really great options and great flavors. The buffet is reasonably priced and great value for sure. One thing to improve I would say is to have more gravy based curries but the samosas were really great. Fruit custard and gajar halwa were nice as well. Flavors were authentic and wouldn't mind coming in again with different choices. More...

Me and my friends came on Saturday around 6:00 and it was practically empty. The rush of people came around 6:30. This buffet was delicious. The mango lassi is thick and cold. You get either garlic or regular naan. The server kept the naan coming and he was polite. You might find the whole star anise in your food but that's okay. More...

We gave our daughter's 2nd birthday party here and can say had such an amazing, Hassle free experience. Got everything which we asked for and exactly how we wanted. Lunch served was so delicious that guests could not stop complementing on the day and afterwards as well. They even opened backyard for kids to play , provided mic for the games. Can say best place for buffet and hosting party. Best tasting Indian buffet at the most affordable price. For sure will host another party here. More...

Stopped here on a Thursday evening to grab some Indian food! I ordered chicken tikka masala (my favorite dish!)I got it to go to eat at home. A HUGE bonus for me is their to go containers are recyclable--NOT STYROFOAM! I checked in on yelp and got a discount--I believe it was 15-20%. The masala comes with white rice. The regular price for this is $14 during dinner time (kinda pricy!) but the discount brought the price down a couple bucks.The masala was perfectly flavored (i got medium spices) and creamy and wonderful. The rice was also cooked perfectly. I'm so glad I found this diamond in the rough in this parking lot off Mira mar road! My wife wanted to go to her favorite pizza place to get a calzone and that's why I got Indian food here. I know for sure I'll be back. Perhaps to try the lunch buffet! I definitely want to try more dishes from this restaurant! More...

Tucked away in the corner of a shopping mall lies this lunch buffet.  The variety of hot meat and veggies choices including samosas brings this up to four stars when compared to other buffets.  Warm naan and tasty rice pudding for dessert.  One server was handling a pretty packed room - payment, seating, naan and water refills.  Would recommend as good value especially for that Indian buffet craving when it hits.....
