We came late and they were still so great and accommodating. Decided to take our food to go so the staff could leave on time but it was absolutely delicious and we will be back again!

Simply the best Indian cuisine around...at least SW MO. Don't let the cloaked front glass fool you. When you open the front door you are first greeted by incredible aromas indicative of legit Indian fare. The atmosphere is muted and perfect for a leisurely meal. TV's display scenes of Indian street food sampling of numerous native foods. The music is tastefully soothing along with the décor. We were seated immediately upon entry and given waters without ice. It was different: Simplistic but strangely pleasing, served in cooled metal pitchers. We noticed their bar was purposefully frugal, yet fully adequate. Their Indian cocktail seemed more like a dessert so two of us ordered Indian beer (Woodpecker & a blonde) & another a Moscato. We were given extensive menus & adequate time to peruse them before our order was taken by a most helpful, attentive waiter. We had two appetizers: The Chicken Pakora & Chicken Momo as (an appie). The Pakora was good but the Momo was excellent. We also order both the buttered & garlic naan along with orders of Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Saag & the Chicken Tikka Kabob. All were ecstatically excellent...I mean we raved! Even my young granddaughter sampled both appies & the Kabob with gusto! Too stuffed for dessert, we paid, tipped, complimented the staff & departed sated. The two anti-Indian cuisine members of the party became enthusiastic converts. If an eatery can do that, there's no question that Nawab is worth your attention.

Visited for lunch buffet and had a great time. Reasonable price ($20 on a Sunday), good options, clean restaurant and attentive staff. I will be revisiting! New favorite Indian restaurant in Springfield? Just perhaps.

My husband and I, and our son who was visiting from out-of-state last month, so enjoyed our time at Nawab! The food was excellent, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was delightful with the twinkling lights and Indian music being played. Our waiter was extra kind and helpful. We look forward to going back soon. All three of us give Nawab 5 stars! Excellent food, kind service, nice atmosphere. We enjoyed chicken curry, dal and lamb, and the garlic naan was excellent!

Enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant. Service was great, food was so good. Will definitely come back again.

If you are wanting an authentic adventure this wonderful family restaurant features beautiful Indian cuisine the aroma surrounds you when you walk in the door. Please visit if you want to be transported to another place in the world. The people are fantastic the food is really amazing.

I had the lamb Rogan Josh and it was so delicious. The lamb was tender and the curry was very flavorful. The chicken momos appetizer was tasty as well. The waiter was so helpful with suggesting what to try. My mom had fish curry and my brother had chicken Tikka Masala. We enjoyed their food and would come back again.

You can't tell from the outside, but inside is super nice! It was more classy than I was expecting from the outside. You could come dressed causal, or slightly dressed up on a date. Either or would work here. The menu is expansive and there is a lot to choose from. There are no pictures on the menu, so it's kind of hard to imagine what you're getting. They do have descriptions with each item on the menu, so that helps. My friend and I ordered the Veggie Stuffed Pakhora, and the Paneer Naan. Both delightful. The spices were flavorful in the Pakhora and the dipping sauces were great; a dark sweet sauce and a slightly spicy green sauce. The Naan was warm, and also so good. The filing was light, but still very noticeable and tasty. Both 5/5. I decided on the Chicken Tikka Masala. Basic, I know, but a good dish to compare to others I've had at other restaurants. 5/5 was so good and the rice was nice and fluffy. My friend had the black lentil curry and it was also super flavorful and delicious. 5/5 With all of the food we got, I thought we paid a very reasonable price for everything. The service was prompt and our server was very nice and attentive. Absolutely I'll be back again.
