ho hum service and too noisy It took a while to submit our order

Avoid. Used to be a favorite restaurant l. Our Go to for Indian dining. Now with new ownership. Food is awful. Overspiced

I really like the food here! Especially the nan-bread, the rice and the dal! I like the chai as well but I wish it was a little less sweet

Indian Oven, once a neighborhood favorite, has gone downhill. Recent reviews highlight subpar food, slow service, and concerns about freshness. Customers note bland dishes and poorly spiced meals, with some even finding foreign objects in their food. While some loyal patrons still appreciate the consistently good food, others suggest visiting on a non-holiday for better service. Despite a few positive reviews praising the tasty vegetarian options, overall, Indian Oven seems to have lost its previous charm. With a decrease in quality and service, this restaurant may need to make some changes to win back its once-loyal customer base.
