I have been eating grim here for the past 3 years and I absolutely love it! Everything is delicious but I personally like the coconut chicken curry with an order of garlic naan and hummus! Everyone is always super kind and on extremely hot/cold days they will offer you a drink on the house when you go in person to alleviate the weather conditions. The restaurant atmosphere is great too, but I'm a home body so I have done take out more often than eating there. I definitely recommend this place!!

BEST INDIAN FOOD ON THE AVE! If people don't know what the ave is, but it's an entire ave filled of food and lots of boba places at University District. I personally don't like Indian and it's because of the intense smell of spices from the curry and other dishes. But my friends convince that I should try cedars. Walking in I feel like I'm someone home, it was cozy with the dem lights. I got the butter chicken, Nan bread and my friends got malsala with cheese. I found it interesting that they have a curry with cheese. Overall the dishes were really delicious and flavor (very buttery). And i barely smell any strong sense of species. It was very light. Rating: 5/5 butter chicken: most popular dishes here. Very butter and the chicken is really soft. And not chewy 4/5 Malsal with cheese: not bad it's the butter chicken but without the chicken they had cubes of cheese.

I wanted to try out a new Indian restaurant and found Cedars. They have some Mediterranean dishes too, but we decided to stick to Indian, ordering a plate of samosas to start followed by butter chicken, veg kofta, and two garlic naans. The food was served within 5-10 minutes - maybe because the restaurant was a bit empty on the weekday evening. The naans here are huge, and they also serve rice with the curries. We ordered our curries to be "hot" spicy, and they really did light my tongue on fire, unlike some other Indian places where the hottest spice level barely manages to tingle my taste buds. The two gravies looked almost exactly similar though. The chicken was really tasty, but the koftas were passable. We got a ras malai for dessert which was good but not the best. The prices are reasonable, making it a good option if you're in the area.

If you're a UW husky then you know Cedars Restaurant offers the best Indian food! Must order items has to be the garlic naan and butter chicken masala! The salmon tandoori was so soft and tender, 10/10! Great service and food!

Food: Butter Chicken was so flavorful packed with many spices. The Pesto Naan was the biggest and best naan i've had so far! If you love pesto I would highly recommend this. The rice was interestingly mushy. I'm not sure if that is normal for this place but it was the most mushiest rice i've ever had in an Indian place. I can't dock off points because it might be a regional thing. I also appreciated and loved the chutneys they provide at the table. Service: Average, nothing to rave about. Ordered and paid on their online portal and the food came right out. Ambiance: It was empty when I went but overall the restaurant is clean and would be a nice place to go to for a casual lunch or dinner.

Good food overall, but the beef kebab was a bit dry. Lamb kebab was our favorite. Hoping to see improved cleanliness of the dining area.

We went for dinner at this place in a weekday. They surprised us with everything we ordered. The masala chai was amazing. We ordered platters and all the items were really good. We ended our meal with dal tadka and it was perfect. They have two spice levels, one normal spice level and another is indian spice level, which was really interesting and we ordered everything with indian spice level. It was perfect. Ambiance is good too. Overall, a must visit if you are around and you wouldn't be disappointed.
