If you have read my reviews then you will know I'm a harsh critic. I feel like a lot of these reviews are written by people who don't eat Indian food often and are not qualified to judge what is good and not good. Please understand that like Chinese food, Indian food is fairly tasty and addictive due the spices and cooking techniques so even the worst Indian restaurant wil taste really good to non-Indians and people who aren't used to eating Indian food regularly. Star of India is good but is hardly the best or even one of the best Indian restaurants in the valley. Their food is not prepared by a professional Indian chef and that can be tasted. The food tastes like it's been prepared at home by a very talented Auntie. Now while an Auntie's cooking is fine, it's still no match to that of food prepared by a professional chef. I would strongly encourage the readers below to venture to Tempe and Phoenix to taste Delhi Palace, India Palace and Jewel of the Crown.
Pros: Some Punjabi dishes, takeout
Cons: Expensive, Heavy cream in all dishes, restaurant can feel crammed
