What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded once on November 23, 2021. For example: 3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.

    Recorded 2 times on November 23, 2021. For example: 3 Are written food handling procedures (Food Safety Plan) current and available on site?

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on February 17, 2023. For example: 1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

    Amazing food and outstanding service! The taste was absolutely delicious, and we especially loved the service. We were travelling and unfortunately got late for dine-in, so we placed a takeout order instead. What really surprised and impressed me was the way the attendant went above and beyond. They kindly offered us a place to sit and enjoy our dinner even though it was already after working hours. That level of hospitality is truly outstanding and something you don’t see everywhere. Delicious food, incredibly kind staff, and exceptional hospitality. Highly recommended! ❤️🍛

    I made an online reservation for Friday dinner and requested a table with a view, and I’m really glad I did because the view was gorgeous. It definitely added to the dining experience. The food was excellent. We ordered the aloo tikki, chicken tikka masala, and lamb korma, and everything was delicious and flavorful. The mango lassi and sweet lassi were also tasty and made the perfect treat to end the meal. Unfortunately, the service was quite slow. It took about 5 minutes to get seated, another 15 minutes after being seated to get water and place our order, around 25 minutes for the food to arrive, and another 10 minutes just to get the check. The servers were very friendly and apologetic, so this seemed more like an understaffing issue. Management should really take note of the staffing ratio, especially during busy dinner service. Even when the food and view are excellent, slow service can affect whether guests choose to return. That said, I would still return if I’m ever in the area again. With faster service, this place would be close to perfect.

    We tried something new and weren't disappointed! This was our first time eating at an Indian Restaurant. The music seemed a bit too loud when we first entered the restaurant, but it wasn't so bad once we were at our table. The food was delicious (we had butter chicken and chicken Goa curry, garlic and coconut naan). Our server, Sakshi, was very friendly, attentive, and helpful. The view from our table was also fantastic. We highly recommend to eat at this restaurant!

    I recently dined at Flavors of India-The Viewpoint and was blown away by their authentic North Indian vegetarian offerings. The ambiance is lovely, but the real star was the food. We ordered a selection of classics, and every dish delivered on flavor, texture, and that perfect restaurant-style richness. Paneer Tikka was the highlight starter—juicy cubes of paneer marinated in a spiced yogurt blend with bell peppers and onions, then perfectly charred in the tandoor. It had a beautiful smoky flavor, crisp edges, and a tender center. Served with mint chutney and a tangy salad, it was addictive from the first bite. Definitely one of the best I’ve had! For the mains, Daal Makhani was pure comfort in a bowl. Slow-cooked black lentils in a velvety tomato-butter gravy, finished with cream and a touch of fenugreek. It was incredibly creamy, mildly spiced, and had that deep, smoky aroma that only comes from proper slow cooking. Paired with fresh garlic naan, it was soul-satisfying. Shahi Paneer felt truly regal. Soft, fresh paneer cubes simmered in a luxurious, nutty gravy made with cashews, yogurt, and aromatic spices. It had a subtle sweetness balanced with mild spices—rich and indulgent without being heavy. The gravy was silky smooth and packed with flavor. It reminded me of the best Mughlai-style dishes from top Indian restaurants. Overall, the portions were generous, the spices were well-balanced (not overly hot, perfect for a group), and everything tasted fresh and made with care. The naan and rice accompaniments were spot-on too. If you’re craving high-quality Indian vegetarian food with that authentic touch, Views is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back for more!
