4 out of 5 stars

Kadhai, which is hidden in the back of a Ross and Marshall’s shopping center off Glenwood, has a good quality buffet at a reasonable price. Affordable Indian food is hard to come by in Raleigh, so it’s nice to find one so close to our house. We stopped in on Saturday afternoon to check out the food. The entrees here are normally pretty expensive, in the $15 range. However the buffet was $11 when we visited Saturday at lunchtime.

The buffet has a good number of items, including fluffy rice and fresh naan. There were three chicken dishes- butter chicken and two types of chicken curry. They also had lots of veggie options, of course, including a chickpea dish, a lentil dish, peas and mushrooms in sauce, sauteed cabbage, and some other items. Another small area had two types of vegetable fritters and samosas, and the cold bar had a selection of sauces and relishes plus fresh cut fruit and rice pudding. I gorged myself and felt quite full!

We were shocked at the selection of over 100 items at this brand new Chinese buffet. Aside from many tables of Chinese and some traditional American foods, there is a sushi bar and a hibachi station where you choose your own ingredients a la Crazy Fire. Plus of course a salad bar including chilled shrimp, and two dessert tables plus an ice cream area. And for $6.95 for lunch on a Saturday! Lunch is that same price every day and dinner is $9.95. I have to say we were blown away, not only by the food selection and tastiness, but also by the politeness of the staff, the quick refilling of every station, and the uniqueness of the decor. Add to that 80′s hits on the stereo and you can be sure Glen and I will be back.
