This Indian restaurant is the best in the Birmingham area. Overall, their lunch buffet is very good, and the price is only $ 8.99 for a lunch buffet, which is a very good deal. While it is very good for Birmingham, I have definitely had better in major cities, such as Atlanta or San Jose, CA. Overall, I would recommend for those living in Birmingham and want to eat at a local Indian restaurant.

I still goto this place once a month. I will still say probably the best Indian in town(lunch buffet).

Quality of food was excellent and the servings were very large. When the manager noticed that I had not eaten my coconut soup, he offered me a free dessert which was very much appreciated. Great little place!

The first time I came to this restaurant was several months ago for their buffet. My coworker lived down that side of Hwy 280, otherwise, I would’ve never known about the restaurant. Regarding their buffet options, I could already tell that the food was more authentic than the other Indian restaurants in Birmingham. There were so many varieties — it was fantastic. The co-owner actually came to our table, introduced himself and made sure that we were well taken care of. What a nice guy he was. I was excited to try out their dinner menu in the future. Yesterday I was finally able to try their dinner menu. I opted for the Indian Special because I wanted to try a different variation of foods and really, it was a great deal. For under $ 18, you get 3 different dishes, naan bread, and this delicious soup. I could not even eat half of it because I was so full. Also, it was so yummy! The staff was great and very attentive. The owner greeted me this time and was also kind. As for spices, I chose medium hot and for an Asian who grew up eating plenty of spicy food, it was a perfect amount of kick! I could only imagine how hot their top level of hot is. Overall, enjoyed the atmosphere. Food was divine. Staff and service were fantastic. Definitely in agreement that this is the best Indian restaurant in Birmingham. The only thing that I’m not a big fan of is their location. However, because I enjoyed my experience so much, the drive and traffic lights were worth it.

Easily the best Indian food in Birmingham! Fiancé and I shared the Butter Chicken, the Bhindi Masala and and an order of garlic naan. I cannot rave enough over this food… It was so, SO delicious. The staff was wonderful, as well. They were attentive without being smothering. They made sure we always had plenty of rice and water. Overall – just a really nice dining experience. Easily one of my favorite places on 280! Can’t wait to try the buffet!

This is the best I have found in the Birmingham area. Terrific waiters, awesome buffet with reasonable prices. If you like Indian food and you are in the area this is your restaurant. I am going to stop here every time we come through.

Probably the best Indian restaurant in Birmingham, especially if you are looking for a North Indian style of cooking like me. You can’t go wrong with their buffet, but I usually prefer to order a la carte. Their service is pretty good and they will try their best to accommodate your requests related to spice levels, vegan substitutes etc.

This was the worst Indian food I have ever ate. No taste and horribly made. Great staff and service. A waste of money and very upset. Brought the family here and not happy with my experience at all. The food is sub part and tasteless and is not authentic. The dessert tastes like it came from a can. It’s unfortunate cause the servers and people were very nice.

Great service! Great food! The staff were very attentive and friendly. We sat for quite a while after eating and did not feel rushed. Food was wonderful as well.

Standard Indian buffet. If you’re on the 280 side of town it’s the only option for Indian food. I’ll eat there again for sure.

I had my reservations about trying this restaurant. Fear of the unknown, I suppose. Indian cuisine was a mystery to me. My husband and I went in for lunch. I am so glad we did. The food was amazing. Aromatic and delicious. The service was outstanding. I think it was the owner that came to our table and talked to us about the different types of foods they served. He was very nice. All in all we definitely will be back and have told our friends about it.

We love this place! Buffet style so you can try Indian if you are not already familiar with the cuisine. They also have a menu you can order from, but we love the buffet. My husband is not an adventurous eater, and after one visit he was hooked. It is now one of our favorite, go-to places. It is family friendly because they always have tandoori chicken and naan(kids love chicken and bread). The other items may not visually look great, but try them and they are super tasty(Palak Paneer!).

Bayleaf is a good Indian restaurant. I went at noon on a Saturday, and it was difficult to find parking in the lot. There were many people there. I met a large group of vegans, which they accommodated well; and, the service was decent. The staff assumed I wanted to the buffet, and I did! The buffet is large and has numerous vegetarian options. I found that the food was good but the tastes of the different dishes did not distinguish themselves that much. Many standard dishes one expects. I wish there had been more fresh vegetables – a salad – and more Indian deserts. I would be interested to try the restaurant for dinner some time. If one can eat a lot, the buffet is a good deal at $ 9. I will return here.

I made a little piggie of myself. The lunch buffet is huge, and it includes a wide variety of dishes. Everything was delicious, but I don’t remember the names. So, let’s go with, I liked the green(spinich), yellow(chick peas), brown(eggplant), and the red(chicken). My only suggestion is I wish there were entrees that were spicy. Bayleaf offers the lunch buffet every day including the weekends. The staff told me the dishes vary each day, and they serve goat and fish on Fridays and Saturdays. I will be back. Oink oink.

Great location and excellent service. I hope they are here to stay! We went around closing time so they weren’t packed. but that was good for us and we had the entire place to ourselves. The buffet is ENORMOUS but I ended up ordering off the menu. They had great selection with reasonable prices. Quality of the food was also fantastic. They let us stay a little after closing and even warned us a few times before the buffet was going to close to everyone ended up getting what they needed off of it. I accidentally powered down my phone instead of getting the living social deal for this place but the owner was nice and redeemed my deal off of his phone. I would go back in a heartbeat!

Went there for the lunch buffet. Amazing and just the right amount of variety. Everything was hot and always replenished frequently. I sampled every single thing they had on the line and it was all absolutely delicious. I would recommend this to everyone I know!

This review is based on my comparing with taj India and as a stand alone opinion. This was my first time here for lunch buffet. I don’t think their food was bad but a little more on the bland side compared to what I am use to. There is more variety at taj but I do like that they had bread on the buffet. The staff was nice but at 12pm I honestly expected it to be not so dead. I think the location is a bit hard to notice. I had lived on this side of town for a while till I saw the restaurant. If someone asked if I would go again, sure. It is a little more expensive then taj India though, even with my dollar off coupon I got in the mail. Over all not a bad place and the food tasted good. I guess I just expected more.
