Yum. Love this place. Don't be fooled by the appearance (inside and out) - not the nicest looking joint, but the food is awesome. Skip the buffet and order off the menu, it's way better. Chicken...

Well, I can't believe I haven't yet reviewed Sitar. I've had plenty of Indian and I have to say this has been my favorite. My husband agrees. One qualification of my review: I tend stick to the...

I rate this the same at the Indian restaurant Taj. Sitar has a very good lunch buffet. The place is usually packed. The water glasses they give you are extremely small and sometimes the servers are...

Dont judge this place by its looks. As someone said that looks can be deceptive. Having a real nice building and bunch of servers that dont know indian food is certainly not what SITAR is known for. But rather...

Never ever, I have had food that tasted so bad. The curries were watery and to top it off we found a dead c--- r---- in our naan. I obviously got food poisioning. When I called them to report the issue, the...

If you've had Indian food in a bigger city or homecooked, you will be disappointed here--Sitar is Indian food for people weaned on barbecue sauce. Spicy is mild, dishes are Americanized, and the...

Have eaten several times at Sitar and just was not that impressed. The lunch buffet is a good bargain, if you want the same food every time. The service is not that good. Drink glasses are small...

I usually hit the lunch buffet at Sitar, though I have been to dinner twice with equally good results.The service could be a little better as most of the staff seems pretentious, and unwilling to...

I've only been here for the lunch buffet about thirty times - weekdays and weekends. The food is good but the selection on the buffet is always the same. The food is typical of other quality Indian...

Sitar is a disappointment. Opened in 2000 to much fanfare, and chest-beating (we'll show Kashmir!), it fizzled out quickly in importance and quality. While the place is bigger and has more of an...

I've been hear several times. Frequented by locals who love authentic Indian food, this place is the real deal. Remember to get a Mango Lassi!

I am regular going to sitar because I really like their food. They have lunch buffet and they never put the same type of food next day. They are always changing. The food taste is far better at dinner time...

Sitar food is definetely not meant for Indians. The buffet menu is same almost everyday and the base for different vegetarian curry is same. I will not go there again and Knoxville actually needs one real...

The food is excellent. I recommend the Lamb or Chicken Korma and Chicken Vindaloo - the Tandoori's are okay but have been too dry in my opinion. The mulligatawny soup was not to my liking. The naan...

Sitar delivers consistently good Indian food in a convenient West Knoxville location. Like Kashmir, its buffet is of lower quality than the food on the menu, but it's still good. It's not the best Indian food...
