Sitara India

I love this place’s food! Their chicken, lamb, and shrimp curries are so good, and their saag aloo too. We come here every few weeks and it’s probably my favorite Indian restaurant in Ogden. However… the service is garbage. Try to call, they’ll tell you to hold and hang up on you five minutes after silence and mumbling in the background. Infuriating. People picking up the phone are so blunt, it’s insane. It would be a great experience if the service was anywhere near the level the food is at. Naan: 9/10. Not sure how to rate plain naan, but it’s very good. Always nice, warm, and soft. The naan is easy to break off and dip into one of their delicious curries. Chicken Curry: 10/10. I love their chicken curry, it’s always so good! Very filling and tasty. The chicken is flavorful and savory, never missing a beat with its juiciness. It’s simmered beautifully and has the perfect amount of spice. We always get it. Shrimp Curry: 10/10. I’ve only ever had it once, but it did not disappoint at all. The shrimp tastes amazing with the curry, and was basically perfect. They do just as well with their seafood as they do with their other meats. It’s warm, spicy, and super flavorful. Zero complaints. Lamb Curry: 7/10. The lamb curry is often a hit-or-miss, simply because some pieces have fat and others don’t. I haven’t really been able to eat it after finding an artery sticking out of a piece a few months back though. Aside from that, when I get a good piece, it tastes delicious and is just as juicy and piquant as the rest. Saag Aloo: 8/10. Super good vegetarian option. I don’t like potatoes, which is why I knocked off a point or two from the score. It’s mainly for my mom, haha. But the spinach is always delightful. It’s saturated wonderfully with spices and their tomatoes, leaving an absolutely blooming garden of flavor in your mouth.

My boyfriend and I come here for lunch all the time, and it never fails to be delicious. The food is always good, they take special care to make sure your food is the right amount of spicy, and they have many options to choose from, including PLENTY of vegetarian options! And the server we usually have, Jove, is always so nice! Always asks how you’re doing, and even when he’s super busy, makes sure that you’ve always got what you need! He is truly a great worker there.

We order from here a few times per year, and each time the food is quite tasty, especially the naans. We choose not to eat at the restaurant due to apparent dirty and neglected interior and exterior environment. However, I've given this an honest review based on my opinion and the enjoyment by children experience whilst eating their meals. Service is okay, and atmosphere is bleak. Other than that, if you don't mind take-out, I recommend trying this little establishment. Bottom Line: Excellent Indian cuisine🇮🇳🍴
