The butter chicken at Sitar Indian Cuisine is the best I have had outside of Delhi. Rich, creamy sauce and perfectly tender chicken. The garlic naan is fresh from the tandoor and worth every calorie.

Incredible lunch buffet at Sitar Indian Cuisine in Knoxville. Over 20 dishes and everything was fresh and flavorful. The chaat station alone is worth the price. I go every week now.

Sitar Indian Cuisine knows how to cook biryani. Aromatic rice, tender meat, and the right balance of spices. Order the raita on the side and the mango lassi to cool things down.

Best Indian food in Knoxville hands down. Sitar Indian Cuisine has an extensive menu covering North and South Indian cuisine. The dosas are crispy and the sambar is deeply flavored.

Took my non-Indian friends to Sitar Indian Cuisine and they were blown away. The staff helped guide us through the menu and recommended perfectly. Everything from the samosas to the gulab jamun was exceptional.

Solid Indian restaurant in Knoxville. Sitar Indian Cuisine has good tikka masala and the saag paneer is nicely spiced. Vegetarian options are plentiful and everything is clearly labeled.

Authentic regional Indian cooking at Sitar Indian Cuisine. This is not your standard tikka masala place. The chef is from Kerala and the seafood curries are unlike anything else in Knoxville.
