We came for the lunch buffet and it was completely worth it. All the food was delicious, good quality, and warm. It also came with chai tea which I loved. The restaurant itself is clean and nice. The staff was helpful but we didn't interact with him too too much since it was a serve yourself situation.

The food is fantastic! I sampled a little of everything on the lunch buffet and enjoyed it! The chai tea is a nice touch. The waitstaff is polite and friendly but not invasive or annoying. Restaurant is clean with pleasant Indian music playing. Also has free parking nearby. I will be back and recommend to friends!

Very solid lunch buffet (currently just over $20 per person after tax and tip). The highlight is that they make and bring you fresh naan rather than just leaving it in the buffet, so you get soft, buttery goodness delivered to the table. The buffet is strong on chicken (two kinds of roasted and two kinds in a wet curry) and had several veg options as well (a saag, a paneer, a dal, and a curried potato and zucchini/squash thing). Everything I tried was flavorful and tasty. The buffet also had plain rice or biryani, a couple of dessert options, some dips/sauces, and a green salad (heavy on the cucumber). There is also the option to order off the menu. Service is quick and attentive. Our water glasses were constantly topped off and dirty plates immediately taken away.

Love this place. I'm here on a work trip and was so excited to stumble across this restaurant. Their lunch buffet is one of the best I've ever had. They have all the typical items you'd find on a buffet. The food is fresh and excellent. The staff is very attentive and kind! The restaurant is clean. If I'm ever back in the area for work, I'll definitely be coming here for lunch! Highly recommended!!

Ordered take out from here and loved everything we got! The Chicken makhani and Chicken kadhai were both incredible! Def one of the top Indian spots we have tried in Durham. Can't wait to try more dishes!

Atmosphere: We've only ordered takeout at Naan Stop, but the dining area seemed nice and clean. Service: Ordering to-go over the phone has been a breeze, and our food has been ready for pickup in ~20 minutes. Food: This time around, we ordered the Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, Garlic Naan, and Mango Lassi. Both of the main dishes were good. While Butter Chicken might be a rather uninspiring dish to order, Naan Stop makes it a filling, guilty pleasure. Their Tikka Masala is consistently tasty, and both dishes deserve to be scooped up with their Garlic Naan. Overall: Naan Stop is a solid, accessible option for Indian food close to Duke's campus. However, their dishes are quite pricey especially given the portions. We'll likely order again as an occasional and convenient indulgence!
