    Last night I went to the Indian Buffet @ Main & Caroline.  My boyfriend had been raving about it for awhile so we decided to go on a Sunday night date.

    At first glance and sniff, it looked like there was a good selection of meat and vegetarian items.  I'm a huge fan of Butter Chicken it's a staple for me at any Indian restaurant.  It was definitely comparable to many high end Indian places in Toronto (like The Host in Yorkville which in my opinion has one of the best Butter Chicken around). I soaked up that Butter Chicken with the Naan like it was going out of style.

    I wasn't a huge fan of the Alloo & Saag (spinach & potato) it was just meh to me.

    The Goat curry was tough but the curry was delic.  I would really love to see on the menu is Shrimp Vindaloo....definitely saw the sauce but no Shrimps.

    Totally recommend this place because for the price point you are definitely getting what you pay for.  Fri-Sun $13.95 and $11.99 during the week - all you can eat.  

    I would go back just for the Butter Chicken alone. :)

    This place is a great to go for get togethers since it has a wide selection that has something for everyone. I recently went there with a picky group of people and they all found something they liked. Personally I found the food to be good for the most part but there were a few dishes that were too salty when I went there (the samosas in particular). The location is big, so like @Rob Y said, there will be no wait times at any part of the day. An added bonus is that for a little bit more (1-2$ I think) you get unlimited refills.
    One small caveat, is that since it's located in the downtown, they don't have a parking lot, so you may or may not find street parking in the area.

    Location has changed to 163 Main St W. (I think this is the new address)  Anyways, better location and bigger place!  It has 2 floors, and that means no wait times.  For buffet style I have no complaints.  Good food, and unlimited soda refills (I think they charge 1.00 more if you want an imported indian beer like Tiger which is worth the upgrade, although not unlimited).   I myself find alot of these dishes very filling, and find it hard to eat a lot of food.  Would definetely go back though!

    Great selection of vegetarian and meat-lovers dishes in a family-friendly setting. The lighting was a tad dim but hey, at least you get a free drink with your meal!

    Great new place but food quality is decreasing day by day. Every dish is sinked in dark thick onion gravey. I know Indian food very well but the food being serve in Modern Indian Buffett is nowhere close to real cosine.
