Hidden Treasure in Fountain Valley
Wow, where do I start?!!
This is a quaint little place where couples, families, or co-workers can enjoy a meal with pleasant ambiance. The staff is very polite and friendly tending to any special needs. They make you feel welcomed and are happy to explain anything about the variety of dishes in the buffet.
It's better to go to the lunch buffet and try EVERYTHING so you when you return for dinner (of course, on a different day!) you'll be more prepared on what to order.
The entire buffet is fabulous...from the tomato soup, vegetable fritters (pakoras), to all the vegetable and meat dishes. Oh, dessert is also a delight and shouldn't be missed.
It's a great place where both vegetarians and carnivores [hee-hee =)]can completely enjoy their food.
The restaurant has high cleanliness standards, a budget-friendly lunch buffet, relaxing music, and well-prepared authentic gourmet dishes(with reasonable spice/chili that anyone can handle---even me...and I am a wimp!).
The only unfortunate thing about this place is that it isn't in a highly visible spot which means people miss out unless you are lucky enough to "hear" about it. One recommendation is to wear loose clothing because one trip to that buffet and you WILL definitely go back for more. ENJOY! =)    [18 Mar 2003 16:59:52]

Fantastic
This "best kept secret" is just too good to stay a secret. I am an Ashoka fan because of the tasty food, tremendous variety (lunch buffet), friendly staff and quaint amibiance. I am having a party of twenty there for my college graduation party. I have also been there on a businees meeting with coworkers and lunch with my mom, a great place anytime with any one, not boring American food either, spice it up!    [29 May 2003 01:27:21]

OK
UNLIKE OTHERS WE HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE HERE.THE LADY TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET THE MENU.FINALLY WE GOT IT.
THERE WERE A LOT OF AMERICANS..I GUESS THE LADY IS MORE HAPPY TO PLEASE THEM THAN INDIANS!!!!
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT TO INDIANS..BUT I WILL SAY THAT FOOD IS GOOD IN COMPARISON TO THE SERVICE.    [06 Aug 2005 15:22:47]

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT
What a great place to be. If you want to enjoy a good meal with your family, friends or even little kids, this is a palce to be. Lunch buffet is an excellent choice if you never tried Indian food before, but dinner is wonderful too. Both husband and wife and their two daughters make sure that everyone leaves happy. Food, service, ambiance, everything is excellent.    [15 Mar 2006 22:13:07]

Good Food & Good Service - Period
All I have to say that you must give it a try and I am sure that you would thank me for this recommendation. Yeah !! It's kind of a hidden place so you'd better call for directions unless you are pretty familiar with the local area.    [11 Jun 2006 02:39:02]
