In Short – This eatery's nondescript pale green walls and fluorescent lighting give way to an extensive menu of flavorful dishes. Families and students gather for lunch and dinner, often lining up at the wide-ranging buffet. The menu includes spring rolls and traditional curries, as well as specialties such as cauliflower fritters, lentil pancakes and many varieties of stuffed rice crepes served with coconut sauce. Newcomers to Indian cuisine may prefer sampling from one of many combo meals.

Really BAD Service -- and at a buffet!!
by veggiesgourmet
Today's lunch at Woodland's is my last. Food is always good, but service in terms of seating, etc., has always been marginal.
Today, as I returned to the buffet for dessert, the waiter proceeded to take my almost full chai tea back to the kitchen, and clear my table. I motioned for him to stop, and the person at the table next to me also tried to get his attention. He nodded, and continued to the kitchen, then returned with silverware, but not the tea. I assumed he was going to replace the tea -- bad assumption. I finally flagged another waiter, and asked for the tea to go -- he brought me cold, leftover tea -- one sip and I threw it out. I just hope it was MY leftover tea I was drinking. There were plenty of tables avaiable, so there was no need to rush. I don't like the idea of paying for something to have it taken away, and there are plenty of comparably good Indian restaurants in town WITH good service AND food to waste money on a place like this. That's it for me -- I'm going back to Sitar!
- Pros: Good Food
- Cons: Bad Service

Authentic and yummy
by BNelson
You know it is an authentic ethnic restaurant when the majority of the customers are from the place the food is from.
Tasty food, huge menu - even meat eaters can find something to make them happy (which is usually hard to do in a vegetarian place).
Parking is odd - you can park in the front of the building, or all the way in the back. Don't park in the numbered places - those are for the condominium residents.
- Pros: Huge menu
- Cons: Odd parking

Excellent food, nice people
by rusmanben
I would have given them 4.5 starts if I could. Really good food and a great bargain. Service is good - everyone is friendly and they are helpful with the menu. Seemed like almost everyone eating there was Indian or Middle Eastern - always a good sign in my mind when eating ethnic food. The only knock is that the room itself is about as bad as it gets visually. But, if you are with good company it's not really a distraction. I will be back often!
- Pros: food, friendly staff, lots of selections
- Cons: ambience
