this restaurant has a very nice, tasty selection of foods from India they are so friendly we can just talk about anything with them we love it here

I am not exaggerating when I say is the absolute best Indian food I have ever had in the entire world and I have been to India and Nepal. I tend to gravitate towards the vegetarian dishes, but everything on the menu is scrumptious. The owners, the things, Nancy and Amar sing are just wonderful. They're very welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is lovely. It's very clean. The food is hot and plentiful. Their buffets are wonderful and very reasonable you can't miss with this place. It's wonderful. I've been a customer for 30 something years.

Here is a review of Simi's, a favorite of many Yelpers on review. The restaurant is found in a retail center, across from a larger mall in Balcones Heights. There is ample parking, and first impression is the aroma of food in preparation as it wafts across the area from the several eateries in the area. I must confess this is my first visit for Indian cuisine ever!! Marjan and my boy Buddy and his beloved Eva are well acquainted with the nuisances of Indian foods, ergo, my initiation to this iteration of comestibles. We entered the restaurant without reservation, immediately greeted by a very agreeable staff and directed to our table. The environ is casual, with images of Indian art and tapestries adorning the walls. The ambience is quiet, allowing easy conversation at our table. We began our adventure with aperitifs. We chose two beers to share, the Himalayan blue, and the Taj Majal. The Blue is a pale lager, smooth on the palate, a flavor that we all found most enjoyable. We also sampled Taj Mahal, another lager, with a bit of malty taste. All agreed both were flavorful, but the edge was given to the Himalayan! We began our exploration of the menu with the vegetable samosa, a staple, the crust light and tasteful, the inner vegetables pleasing in flavor. We all agreed this was a winner of an appetizer. As there were four of us at table, we were unsure of ordering, but our waiter suggested the Empire, a sampler of dishes, that could be prepared for our party. Included: white rice and naan. Excellent suggestion! Included were chicken tandoori, excellently prepared, tender and moist...delightful. Saag paneer, the Simi offering of spinach and cream sauce and cheese, again a favorite for the table. The lamb curry was tender, mild in flavor, just melt in the mouth perfect. The chicken masala was offered in a tomato-based yogurt sauce, again delicious. There was offered a vegetable dish with spices, quite the compliment to the entrees. Marjan, most the experienced in Indian cuisine, thought the spices mild and comfortable for the palate, not the over-the-top spicing that some would enjoy with Indian cuisine. Think, for example, the very spicy Mexican foodstuffs that push the limit of the Scoville scale. Everyone at table considered the entrees most enjoyable, and from the perspective of yours truly, a veritable newcomer to this flavor of cuisine, a hearty thumbs up! Marjan rates this eatery 5 origami boots! We will definitely return and can definitely recommend! Enjoy Yelpers!!

Everything good here great prices for the food Hidden Gem lady at register very nice and welcoming

I have to start off by saying this is the most delicious, comforting, and authentic Indian Cuisine I've ever experienced. Simi's has been a traditional treat for my family and I for many years! The owners and our favorite waiter Julio are all very friendly. There has never been a dull moment at this wonderful place. My family and I decided to call in an order of the Empire dinner with the a variety of their signature dishes, including the Saag Paneer & Chicken tandoori to name a few. These dishes never miss and always hit the spot when we're craving authentic Indian food! I highly recommend you give this wonderful place a try. A must try if you're in the Fredericksburg and Crossroads area, you won't regret it!

Definitely the best Indian food in San Antonio!!! Ambience is awesome and the service is great!!

This was my first time dining here and it was a positive experience. 5/5 - Customer Service. A hearty welcome, a friendly smile and the attentiveness of the waiter left a big impact. 5/5 - Atmosphere. About six coworkers, and I ate here for lunch. Although a busy time of day for a restaurant, we were not rushed. The buffet was very neat and clean, as was the entire dining room overall. 4/5 - I am relatively new to Indian cuisine. However, I experimented and tried some new things. My personal favorites were the chicken curry, creamed, spinach, and freshly baked flatbread.

10's across the board! I loved every single dish, it was amazing. Thank you for the service I thought I took a picture of the dishes I ate, but I can't find it. You won't be disappointed, come here!

Clean and well lit, fresh food. Went for buffet, so delicious and I'm still barely able to move. Attentive servers and glasses were always full.
