Good Indian Food in Atlanta: Sri Krishna Vilas

Since we moved to Atlanta in 2006, we have been to all the Indian restaurants in the Alpharetta/Roswell area and have yet to find a better restaurant tan Sri Krishna Vilas. They have a good lunch buffet but what we like better is their ala carte menu in the evenings. Since they moved to their new location on Windward Parkway, we have been at least 3 times and ordered different dishes and each and every time we were extremely satisfied.

Their Chicken Tikka comes on a sizzling skillet that tastes very good. The butter chicken is very authentic. Next time we will try their South Indian style Chola-Batura and the grilled Malai Jhinga (grilled shrimp).

This new location is beautiful. Nice hardwood floors, big screen TVs showing Bollywood movies, a large buffet with a good selection. They serve fresh breads including naan that are wonderful.

The food is surprisingly made to taste,  extra hot, hot, medium, and mild.  There is quite a noticeable difference between these levels.  So, for once, the level of heat means something to the chef.  It would be interesting to see for how long they keep this up.  If they do that long enough, they will be one of the best Indian restaurants in Atlanta.

The variety is pretty decent so that this can be a one-stop-shop for all popular Indian cuisines. They also serve local Indian beers like Kingfisher.
