Pintu’s Indian Palace

This place is a gem! Amazing food and customer service. Everyone was extremely inviting and knowledgeable. We learned so much about the natural/organic foods and oils they use to bring out their incredible flavors. The dessert is a must have! We came here for a business meeting and will be back soon! Hoping the owner will be there again, he has great energy and made the experience even better!

While this might be an unassuming restaurant from the exterior, Pintu’s is in a class of its own with authentic Indian food, an amazing selection of spirits and an even better selection of wines. The entire dining room is an homage to the best wines in the world which they serve here at incredible prices. I had the exceptional buffet for lunch but when I come back in the evening I’ll definitely be buying a bottle of Caymus which they sell by the 1L bottle.

The food is good here...quality indian flavors.. Few drawbacks that the owners need to look into are.. 1) food preparation time is very long.. 2) The place needs cleaning..some chairs were full of papers and other items. However if you are in Springfield and looking for Indian taste..this is the place to go. The place attracts locals more than the Indians.

This restaurant was suggested by my woman, she had eaten here approx 5 years ago and she had been longing to go back since then. She actually ordered the same dish as the first time which was the lamb chops, which was served sizzling on a skillet. She was sweet enough to share as I also share mine shrimp with vegetables. Even the appetizer was very good, while enjoying the 3 different dipping options. Even the bottle of wine we picked hit the spot! Just all said and done a great experience and would suggest a visit to anyone that had or would like to try Indian cuisine. A+👏

From long drive and we’re looking for good food, first time here at this restaurant. Food was amazing with prompt service. Ordered vegetarian food dal tardka and mushroom along with lachha parantha. After long time had good lachha parantha. Would surely comeback.

Very Welcoming Crews!! Yummy Food.. Service is awesome..I came from GA..I remembered my visit to this restaurant back in 2012. Wanted to try it again.. No words to describe the way they welcomed us and served food with cheerful and happy face.. Everyone- from server to table cleaning person was very friendly..I would definitely recommend this place.. Quality of food is very good..

I have to tell you, I have eaten in a lot of Indian restaurants--all over the country. (Not in India, lol). You remember I was a food critic in CA and was actually paid for my opinion. :) So when I say that Pintu's Indian Restaurant stands tall among them all, I am not exaggerating. The food is excellent, all made from scratch, highly refined and complex, and amazingly delicious. Happily, except for the fried chicken, there are no industrial seed oils, no Canola. They use butter for naan, ghee for sauces, and tandoori has no oil at all. Yay! Once we tried the buffet and especially enjoyed the tandoori and the chicken masala. I love their rice pudding. A very refreshing meal topper. Our favorites--Nav Ratan Korma, a delicious vegetarian concoction of nine veggies and pureed nuts in a memorable cream sauce, and Lamb Muglai Korma (I'm thinking Korma must mean vegetables), with tender chunks of lamb, simmered with nuts and raisins in a creamy curry sauce---to die for. And, of course, naan--this time a perfect roasted garlic naan, great for sopping up those cream sauces, so not one drop is wasted. Pintu Chawla, the owner, was gracious and friendly (I read some people said he is rude. I suspect they were the ones initiating rudeness). Our servers, Hemanth and Brian were helpful and kind. It takes a lot to make a success of running restaurants these days--more than usual even. Pintu knows what he's doing. His staff is well managed. And, even the Indian music and comfy booths make the stay very pleasant. If there were tablecloths, china, and crystal, it would rival any five-star restaurant out there. But I give it five anyway for the reasons stated. This will be our new favorite for Indian food--which we absolutely love when it's done well.
