Jewel of India

Just down the street from Memo's is a breath of fresh air, Jewel of India.  Jewel of India assumes you are there for the buffet and it is a great choice.  The staff is attentive but not overbearing.  I was greeted and led to a table when I arrived.  I was also asked what type of naan I would like.  As far as I know the choices are plain and garlic; I ordered garlic.  I arrived at 11:00 am when they had just opened, the buffet was set-up and ready.  Although this is an all-you-can-eat buffet, if you take more than you eat, you may be penalized.  I'm not sure how this would be administered but there is a sign to that effect; be forewarned.  The chai that is offered is delicious and pre-sweetened.  Customers are asked to limit their consumption to two cups.

The buffet at lunch is $7.99 and worth it.  Although the buffet looks small, a relatively large number of dishes is offered and each is quite good.  You will not leave hungry.  The vegetarian dishes are segregated from the meat dishes, so worry about contamination is lessened.  There are salads, chutneys, curries, dessert, rice, and other dishes.  The naan is served freshly made directly to your table.  It is a large serving and dependent on the number of customers at a table.  I'm sure you can order more if desired, but would probably pay a small price for it.

The restaurant is a nice size with a number of tables available for 1-4 customers.  I'm sure they would readily accommodate larger groups.  It was not busy at lunch and the music was soothing and quiet enough to allow conversation.  This would be a nice place to meet a friend for lunch no matter what their dining eccentricities.

Do not expect your bill to be brought to your table.  Payment is made at the cash register in the back.
