Royal Palace - Indian restaurant in White Plains - 77 Knollwood Rd, USA

I loved this place! My friend and I buffet last Sunday and it really reminded us of home. The food is good although I’d say it is a bit on the oily side and the paneer isn’t the way it should be. The texture isn’t right. But still, I’d highly recommend this place as you’ll find something you’ll love! We loved the chole, pani puri, appetizers and mango pudding. Chai is well made too! People are nice too. I’m definitely taking my non-desi friends here lol

I must tell at the outset that I feel really bad for writing this review but please note that it's written with good intent so the quality of food and service is improved. Hopefully my review is taken with positive attitude. Food: Hands down, this was the worst Indian food I have ever eaten anywhere in the entire world. I placed an order for Aaloo chat , mutton kadhai, garlic naan and tea. The only good item from the things that I ordered was the Aaloo chaat and all other items were just horrible mistakes. I specifically requested when placing the order to make meat well cooked, I double checked and asked the guy taking the order to repeat my request for well cooked meat after he took my order. Finally when the mutton kadhai arrived, the meat was just raw meat put into a pre-made sauce. I forced myself to eat a couple of pieces after which I requested them to get the meat well cooked. They went back to the kitchen and then got the meat cooked. Also, the taste of the kadhai wasn't really like that of a kadhai. Lastly the Chai, with the chai, I don't believe they make fresh tea from Chai- Patti. I am pretty confident it was one from the ready to use masala tea bags. It was so disgusting that I stopped right after taking the first sip. I am not sure why they didn't mention that the tea wasn't freshly prepared from fresh doodh and patti. Service- I don't think they understand very well the authentic Indian cuisine. If you are truly looking for authentic Indian cuisine then please go elsewhere. The food here is very Westernized to cater to the local population at the expense of authentic Indian food. The payment machine wasn't working and I had to leave my credit card details, I hope those are destroyed after charging my card. Atmosphere: The atmosphere was also not very pleasant either with extremely loud music from the next door neighbors.

Great tasting authentic food 🥘. Garlic naan is good. I love their chai tea. I wish they would serve spinach palaak paneer whatever you call that dish everytime I go for buffet it’s not available. I like the baked chicken and curry goat sometimes they don’t have it.

Updated: Coming to the Royal Palace feels like home. The passion and love of food is evident in the chef's expertise. On our recent visit, we finally tried Dosa. The crisp crepe shell was stuffed with a delicious mixture. On the side, there are two types of sauces to try- one spicy while the other has a refreshing cilantro taste. Ultimately, the Royal Palace will stand as my favorite place to go for Indian cuisine. There's no replacing great food and great company. The hunt for a great Indian Restaurant with a buffet selection continues. Until we come across The Royal Palace. From the outside, one would never know that the nearby strip has such a hidden gem! Upon entry, The Royal Palace is more than welcoming- the Restaurant has a homely quality. The music playing is traditional and is kept at a comfortable volume. From staff to fellow guest, one can expect great hospitality. Especially when one enjoys learning more about Indian cuisine! The lunch buffet is 20 dollars per person and seeing the selection of homestyle cooking, the price is more than agreeable. Once one sees the neat display of delicious food, there is only the sense of longing to try a bit of everything. We chatted with a  fellow guest who has been coming to the Royal Palace for ten years! She would talk about the various curries and even showed us a tray that is more traditionally used than an open plate. A chef had brought his own specialty from India to the table- a small round hollow pastry meant to be filled with a variety of spreads and spicy water. Ultimately, a small pocket of flavor to explode in your mouth! Now, let's not forget desert! Of course Jamoon is a favorite. Yet, the mango pudding is so fresh and well executed that provides a light finish. Overall, The Royal Palace is going on the list of favorite places to eat. The staff is very welcoming. The guests are considerate and have a shared love of authentic Indian cuisine. Ultimately, I highly recommend coming here!

Went to dine in last night with my family. It's beautiful restaurant and has a banquet hall too. Good food menu, lots of options to pick. Food was delicious, loved the salmon tikka, vegetarian dishes are also very tasty, they served the bread hot and its mouthwatering. Service was very quick and efficient, Mr Gopal was a good host. Parking is not a problem. Definitely will go back again

The food is always freshly prepared, delicious and the service provided is simply outstanding. My family and I have enjoyed coming here for several years now and have not been disappointed once. The folks at Royal Palace take customer service to the highest level. We have dined here for Lunch, Brunch and Dinner, always exceptional. Thank you.

Can't remember exactly the name of the dish but it was like goat curry. It was delicious.

Spinach cheese curry is awesome! Butter chicken and chicken tikka masara are also excellent!!!
