First time trying this place and Indian food, and I loved it. Very friendly staff and great food selection on the lunch buffet.
We Love this Buffet! It has gotten even better this year with a Delicious Tiapia battered in Indian spice, battered Mushrooms and they ADDED Fresh Juice ( Mango and more)! They have included Soda, Beer and Indian coffee, also! The staff is so helpful and the Bathroom area is Clean with two bathrooms accepting both Male/ Female occupants- Great on busy days like Holidays. Try it and you will LOVE it, too!
I’m a frequent visitor to this place, and the food is always great! The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They genuinely care about their guests, frequently checking to make sure everything is okay. While there are other nearby restaurants that serve an Indian buffet, they don’t clean tables until you’re finished eating and don’t include drinks with the buffet. However, Minerva stands out by offering drinks as part of the buffet and ensuring that tables are kept clean while you’re refilling your plate. This is my go-to spot, and I’ll definitely keep coming back!
Yes, Yes, Yes! This place is well patronized for a good reason. All you can eat buffet with beverages (soda and beer) , hot masala tea, and a selection of desserts - all for $20 during lunch…you absolutely cannot go wrong. The buffet changes and food is fresh and authentic. I enjoy eating here solo as a treat to myself!The staff is helpful and friendly. Thank you for being here in the new Tampa area - you are a gem in this community.
This is a must try Indian restaurant with delicious dishes of amazing quality and quantity. If you are in and around Tampa, you must try!
Finally! A quality Indian Buffet! I have eaten a lot of Indian, but this may have been the best Chicken Thigh Butter Chicken ever. You be the judge! Not to mention the intentionality with which everything is assembled including the ceiling decorations is second to none! Well done!
They had a great sauce selection. The hot sauce pictured in the silver bowl on the buffet was my favorite. The paneer was Delicious. This buffet includes Soda and Buffet. I am visiting from Atlanta and I am glad I stopped by here. I did have to wait a few minutes at the door to be seated but they staff apologized for the wait and it was worth it. Shukriyah!
Beautifully decorated, delicious food, kind owner and nice and quiet so we can hear ourselves. Very elegant. Top of the line Indian food. Doesn’t disappoint!
I absolutely loooove this restaurant! I love everything about it from the food to the service. The owner is very nice and welcoming. He even let me host my Elsa themed 7th birthday party at his restaurant! I’ve been coming here for almost 9 years and it always makes me happy ??.
I just LOVE the lunch buffet because I can sample so many tastes in one visit!!! The food is The restaurant is spotless and the people are so friendly. I love the light bright furnishings!!! I would highly recommend this restaurant … Minerva’s was chosen as the sole cater the Festival of Lights at the Straz center…. That speaks to the quality of their food!!!
Minerva was great! I love Indian food, and always look for a place for lunch when I'm in town. The lunch buffet was good, with plenty of options. The butter chicken is always a favorite, the goat and fish were great too.
During your lunch buffet, you can pay $10 and get a to-go box. It’s enough food to feed two people or to have leftovers. Definitely a great deal for the money. You can choose vegetarian or meat option. I got the meat option, and it came with rice with meat in it, Two other different types of chicken and sauce, four hush puppy things, and a dessert, sweet pudding of sorts. It was very good.
My kids and I went to Minerva and we had a wonderful experience.The food was delicious. The flavors were authentic and well-balanced. The service was excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was welcoming. The restaurant was clean and well-decorated. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great Indian lunch buffet. I spend around 56$ for the food and tip for 2 adults and 2 years old.
The Indian buffet was a culinary delight! A perfect mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, each brimming with authentic flavors and spices. From creamy paneer curries to succulent chicken and goat dishes, every bite was a treat. The desserts were the perfect sweet ending. Highly recommend!
Delicious butter chicken and naan! They finished my order right at the 15 minute mark and it was super yummy. Highly recommend, it was my first time trying Indian cuisine and I really enjoyed it!
We had an incredible dining experience at Minerva Indian Restaurant. The flavors of the Indian dishes were absolutely fantastic — rich, aromatic, and perfectly seasoned. From the spicy curries to the flavorful biryanis, every bite was a delight. The menu offered a great variety, catering to both spice lovers and those who prefer milder options. What made our visit even better was how kid-friendly the restaurant is. The staff was very welcoming and patient with our children, making us feel right at home. They even offered some mild options for the kids and provided utensils and bowls suitable for little ones. The warm, inviting atmosphere and attentive service made it a perfect place for families to enjoy a flavorful meal together. Highly recommend Minerva Indian restaurant for anyone looking for authentic Indian cuisine in a family-friendly setting. We’ll definitely be returning soon!
The food here flavorful and delicious. I have had good dine in service and the servers are attentive and friendly. Even when I have gotten a take away order, it is always ready on time and waiting for me at the door. I have not ever had to deal with a wrong order or error with my take aways either, which has happened at other restaurants. I also love the little sample dessert they give with the take aways, it’s always a nice surprise.
I loved the lunch buffet from butter chicken, chicken Marsala, spicy veggies to naan bread, so much flavor! Amazing Soups, side dishes, etc. The pics say it all!! Great staff, pricing and I’m definitely coming back! ????
WOW! I own and operate the business Everbowl in this Plaza, I have been wanting to try this place and finally found time today with my friend Austin. All I can say is WOW this food was incredible. We got the butter chicken and the lamb with rice and butter Naan. This was absolutely the best Naan I have ever had, and the butter chicken was absolutely perfect. The consistency, the spice, the flavor. Highly recommend and I will be back.
A great place for a date night or to hang out with friends restaurant environment, perfect for celebrating any special occasions. The food was tasty and a good portions. The service was also excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure our experience was enjoyable.
Awesome Reaturant I will come back again for sure
Food is okay and very slow service, needs to improve.
Authentic thought seems that they are always caught unprepared with called in take away orders.
Service here is slow and the food is ok but not great.
Love the Indian accents, but there is only 1 person working there at night.
Food comes pretty fast. They made indian fast food. Food was tasty
Good customer service. But they mess up on my takeout order.
Buffet was just mediocre today. Normally the food is okay, but the kitchen was not on its game.
All non-vegetarian items are too salty, couldn't eat, but, vegetarian items are very good. They have to look out specially for salt content in non vegetarian items.
Food is fine, but service isn't great, 15 mins to take drink order (they weren't busy), appetizer arrived with the entrees and with no dips.
The lunch buffet at Minerva has a good spread and is reasonably priced. We went there on a weekday and enjoyed the food.
It seema the quality of food is reducing eveytime we go there. Hope the restaurant management will keep an eye on this.
Absolutely! In addition to our monthly lunch special we have designed a menu that fits any type of event. Please contact our vendors to start designing your custom menu!
We do have minimum value but they are based on the event, members, and the day, when the order needs to be prepared. Please contact our event caterers to find out more.
