The lamb biryani has no business being that good! We also ordered shrimp and vegetable biryani. Everything is amazing. We are still eating and I had to leave a review. lol. The ginger beer is also really, really tasty. Service was also great. Our food came out in a timely manner and we just dug in. The atmosphere is cool. It's a really cute spot.

We visited the Green Valley Ranch location for the first time for an early dinner Saturday. Although the Lakewood location is a prettier restaurant, the food was still great and that's really the point. We shared butter chicken, lamb kebabs, and chicken tiki masala, as well as both plain and cheesy naan. Everything was outstanding except the cheesy naan- it's WAY too cheesy for my taste. I typically don't care for lamb, but Coriander does it very nicely. They also aren't chintzy with the rice portions, which I appreciate. I got a mango lassi togo, and it was huge. It took me two sittings to finish!

Wow! Wow! Wow this restaurant is fantastic! It has been many years since I had Indian food & the Coriander on Tower Road really impressed me. (Coriander also means a warm spice used in Indian dishes like masalas & curries.) They serve "Indian comfort food". I'm not the only one raving about this place - in 2023 Best of Mile High awarded them Best Indian Restaurant & again in 2022 Best of Denver Reader's Choice by Westword also awarded them Best Indian Restaurant. We arrived early for dinner on a Tuesday night & were seated right away. The dining room was empty except for us. However soon after, people started coming in & there were lots of pickup orders. We were seated in a very comfy booth. The restaurant is small but inviting, I enjoyed the traditional Indian music softly playing in the background. We ordered the Butter Chicken (medium spice) & the Shrimp Masala (mild spice) both came with Basmati Rice plus an order of Garlic Cheese Naan (flatbread). Our server was great, he checked on us often & even asked us if we needed more rice. Our meals came out really fast. Both of these dishes were delicious! The chicken was super tender & the shrimp was plump & juicy, you get about seven good-size shrimp. Don't be deceived by the plate presentation, the portion sizes are generous, we had leftovers. What really made our dinners memorable were the yummy sauces...they tasted like they had been simmering all day, (they probably were) & so flavorful. The masala is a bit sweeter than the butter sauce, both were rich & aromatic with vibrant colors. To top it all off I dredged that wonderful Naan right thru those sauces for delectable bites of goodness! I'll be frequenting Coriander over & over again.

Had some take out so I can't speak to the ambiance but the lamb briyani was amazing as was the lamb vindaloo. The plain naan was a little unseasoned in terms of butter or salt flavor but was still good- recommend to go ahead and order the flavored version if you're on the fence. The highlight of the meal though was the samosas, I could have eaten 5-6 of those. Warning- they're not playing around when they say that it's spicy. The vindaloo was incredibly spicy even for myself, a spice lover.

as soon as i saw all indian people eating here and not a white person in sight i knew it would be good. we ordered garlic naan, garlic roti, saag paneer (med hot), paneer tikka masala (med hot), dal malakai (med hot), and manchurian, veg korma ( med hot). i really enjoyed the naan, roti, and all the dishes except the veg korma. the veggies seemed frozen and the dish itself was very sweet with no spice at all. i also wished the manchurian was more spicy it was very sweet. the other dishes had a great spice. would come back and not get the korma. the portions are small but decent indian food.

Love, love, love this place! Every time we go here the food tastes fresh and delicious. I always order the chicken 65, butter chicken, chicken tikki Marsala (my hubby's entree) and palak paneer. It is authentic and fantastic! Of course we have some garlic naan to help us soak up all the goodness that the sauce has to offer. The server was kind, attentive and timely. The dining area was clean and I enjoyed the setting. Coriander is a must visit!
