Best you'll find in the area. Buffet is always good. Been here probably 20 times, and 18 of those times I'd vote it 5 stars here.

I am always on the lookout for a good Indian restaurant. This restaurant met all of my expectations and more. Their vegetable tikka masala is absolutely delicious, chock full of assorted vegetables and substantial chunks of paneer in a tomato sauce. Paired with some of their cheese kulcha, you can't get much better than this. Today, Hubby got his usual veggie tikka masala. I tried their channa masala and discovered it, too, was very tasty. Their service is always professional and prompt. I love how warm and inviting their dining room is, and having Indian music videos playing on their TV screens is really nice! By far our favorite Indian restaurant, Rangoli is well worth the drive from South Lyon! Highly recommended!

Excellent service and the best Indian food in the area. Brought my nephew to try Indian food the first time. The buffet gave him a nice array of foods. We will both be back!!

We really enjoy the food here, and the ambiance is nice. Good enough that, for our anniversary dinner, we decided to come here since we had given up meat for Lent and the Indian vegetarian options are great. Our server, Harshi, was very kind and had some good suggestions. We had never gotten south Indian food at Rangoli before, but we thought about trying a dosa, and she said we'd like it. Well, we did like it! They have a thicker dosa we will try next time (rangoli spicy dosa), but we went for the onion chili dosa, which is the regular thinness. Perfectly crisp and not greasy, just as good as any Indian street food place that specializes in them. And the onions in the name are not messing around - there must have been an entire bunch of chopped scallions in there! Loved it. The sambar was good, although I've never been excited by sambar. The tomato chutney and coconut chutney were both great additions. Before I get back to the food, I should mention the live music, which we were not expecting. During dinner, there was Bollywood playing on TVs around the restaurant. I thought it was a nice touch- not too loud, but colorful and pleasant. As we were paying, an Indian man was setting up to play an acoustic guitar. I wanted to leave before he started playing so we wouldn't have to offend him by leaving while he was playing. But he started before my credit card had been processed. I'm glad he did! It was an adaptation of Mr. Tambourine Man - I like it almost as much as the Byrds version. So we stayed and listened for a few more songs. Another Dylan song (with harmonica on a neck holder and everything), then another song or two, a Beatles song, and finally Creedence Clearwater Revival! We had to get home to the babysitter or I would have happily stayed longer. We enjoyed the gobi manchurian, although it wasn't quite as crispy as other variations we've had. Excellent taste. It also didn't have as much sugar and red color as some, which is probably a good thing. We know we like the palak paneer here, and it did not disappoint. Those little cubes of paneer are tremendous. I really liked the baingan bharta. My wife thought the clove flavor was too forward - I'm less sensitive to that taste, so it didn't bother me at all. Just to make sure we ordered double what we could eat, we added an onion kulcha. Perfection.

I love the food here especially the Tandoori chicken, vegetable samosas and Tadka Dal! If you like spice then don't be afraid to get it hot! Service is just fantastic; I believe it might be a family owned restaurant. The ambiance is relaxing and I enjoy watching the videos on the televisions. I've been here twice in a week and a half! I highly suggest this place if you want authentic Indian cuisine.

Great food, great service and decent portion sizes. Still getting used to Indian food, only had it for the first time earlier this year in Singapore. So I may not be the best judge on what's "good Indian food". All I know is this was good FOOD. The other 2-3 Indian places I've been to have really cheated you on the meat you get in curry and Masala. This place gives you a lot of chicken and enough rice to compliment the dish. I got the medium masala, my mom got some shrimp based dish(mild). We both loved our food, tasted fresh and full of flavour. Complimented the mains with a side of garlic naan. The naan was a little burnt and I think had a little too much garlic butter, but still good. Only downside in my opinion is that like most Indian places, there's not going to be any to take home. You definitely will eat everything there. The prices are fair for today's economy and overall a pleasant dining experience. The server made sure to constantly check on us and keep water tapped up. I'm pleased with this experience
