The Samosas Chaat are excellent as always, flavorful and filling, with a good enough portion to make a meal (with a Side Of Rice )

I hate to write such a critical review, but my hope is to save people money that want to see if this place is any better than the current competition in Corvallis.
Royal India Cuisine is my least favorite Indian restaurant in Corvallis. We got Lamb Vindaloo, Chicken Butter Masala, and Veggie Korma. All three dishes were supposed to be extra spicy. I would say that all three were mild at best, 2/10 spiciness, and that is being generous.
The flavor of the Lamb Vindaloo was not great; I could taste the typical seasonings, but it was very under seasoned. For context, I eat a lot of Indian food when I travel overseas, and I would consider my favorite Indian restaurant in Corvallis to be about 2/3rds as flavorful as some of the best I have been to, and the Vindaloo at Royal India Cuisine had about 1/4 of the flavor of my favorite resturant in town. So lacking bold flavors, and completely missing some of the more complex flavors. My wife and daughter had the same sentiments about their dishes too.
The quantity of protein in the meat dishes was also lacking for the price paid. I know that this could be a one off, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt, but does not bode well given their competition.
The Naan bread was nice and chewy, however, the quantity of Naan was disappointing. You will need 1-2 orders per person, if you eat your main dish with Naan.
Ultimatly I will not be ordering from Royal India Cuisine again.

I was disappointed that my mango Lassi was less than half full. Especially with a $6.95 price.

The meat was pitiful. Insulting amount. It was like a super sale Dollar Tree quality beef; all cartlidge, not flavorful fat. Missing my drink. No utensils. Not a single napkin. My sauce opened and not secured so it was all over the inside of the bag. Wonderful staples in my bag, 4 in all. Could've closed a patient with the amounting there. Or the 2 in my open sauce I could've swallowed and been that same patient. Save a life, don't eat here.

We really enjoy the lamb Biryani. The Samosa is also a hit! I love the sauce that comes with both. Would get the garlic naan over the Stuffed Naan when we order again.
