Mem Sahib Indian Restaurant

The place offers great atmosphere and authentic taste of indian food. Indian person won't find it bland ;. In rush hour you may have to wait for some of their best items such as Samosa and Naan, but the staff is very friendly and fast to serve at your table if needed. There is lots of space for even big groups. The price for buffet is a little higher than usual but worth it if you are going there only on certain occasions. This has been our official lunch place whenever someone is saying goodbye.

Just make sure not to eat too much you'll definitely want to! The lunch buffet had a wide selection of vegan options, including naan, basmati rice, salad, steamed carrots and broccoli, chana masala, samosa, sweet potato pakura, and fresh fruit. The tables are surrounded by a semi-circle of padded seating and are enclosed on separate islands that open-up into the tall ceiling of the building, creating a private dining space. The waiter was exceptionally polite referring to me only as "my friend", for example, and there was always plenty of water on my table thanks to his efficient service. Definitely take some time to take-in the awesome decor of the restaurant as well.

Great food paired with a wonderful atmosphere. Simon and Herman took great care of us. Will definitely be returning for lunch.

One of my classmates suggested we all go here for an end-of-semester lunch, and it was great! I've never eaten much Indian food, so wasn't sure what to expect. It was a very comfortable atmosphere nicer than I expected, since it is attached to Lexington Market, though it is its own separate restaurant and had large tables with bench-style seating that was great for a large group. Since it's a buffet, you can eat as much or as little as you want, and it's easy to avoid anything too spicy if you're sensitive. Staff were very friendly and accommodating.

I went here with my Lebanese friend who told me that the buffet here is amazing. After I saw the surroundings, I was little apprehensive. But, the place is well decorated inside. And, I was not disappointed with the food either. This is, absolutely, one of the best Indian restaurants I have been to. Food is amazingly good. When the bread was over, we casually asked one of the staff, if they have more bread. They brought hot bread directly to our table even though it was a buffet!! Very courteous staff. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to taste nice Indian food.

This place is seriously a Baltimore gem. Amazing Indian lunch buffet with intricate decor and comfy sofa seating, and the friendliest service. Prices are a great deal and food is delicious. It’s right off of Lexington Market and I’m proud to bring my family & friends from outside Baltimore to come eat here. Unfortunately it’s only open for lunch on the weekdays though.

Awesome Indian food!! I love this place.The staff was so welcoming and respectful. The food was so delicious and well prepared. The prices were reasonable. I really enjoyed at this place. I would highly recommend to all my friends.

Gorgeous decor and wonderful food to match. The rice was neither sticky nor dry, a balance almost impossible to find on a buffet. The samosas were a perfect size so as not to overwhelm the meal, and amazingly spiced. I could go on and on. This a gem of a restaurant hidden beside Lexington Market and very worth the trip to it.

I love Indian cuisine, and over the years have visited a few locations in Baltimore. I finally had the opportunity to dine at the Memsahib near Lexington Market. According to the reviews, I can't for the life of me understand the rating. The decor is typical, they said the price for lunch buffet was one thing but I ended up paying a much higher price. the variety of foods were lacking, not on average as well stocked as others I've dined. The food was barely warm, and there wasn't a lot to choose from. I requested a coke, and the man who waited my table brought me a warm soda in a can!!! not even a glass of ice, which I had to ask for. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!! And neither did he offer me a glass of water. When I paid the check, instead of $11.50 as advertised, my tab was $17.89, which wouldn't have been a question if the food was good. In my opinion, this place can never compare to the Akbar.

The food, atmosphere, and service here are all impeccable! This is the perfect, convenient midday escape from your work or school day. There are always new dishes to try and the flavors in each dish are so unique!
