  My wife and I really enjoyed Shivalik when it first opened about six years ago. After a couple of years, the manager left and the food quality declined, so after a few more visits we quit going there. For the past two years the bad reviews of the food, the attitude of the manager, and the mandatory 18% gratuity kept us away. However, recent reviews often gave the food a high rating, while the manager still had several bad ratings, and the 18% gratuity still grated on many. But, having a hankering for some Indian cuisine, I decided to take a chance by going to the Wednesday buffet last week. We arrived about 5:30 PM. There were about four tables of diners. The staff were pleasant and we had prompt service. The food was very good--I'd give it a 7.5 (out of 10). It was fresh, hot (temp), some was moderately spicy, tasty, with many options. The price of $19.95 was reasonable for Kauai. My wife's Coke was $3, as was my hot chai tea (with a free refill). When the bill came there was no mandatory gratuity! So, overall, I was very pleased and we will definitely go to the buffet again.

  The buffet was excellent. 20$ each for a large, tasty meal. Lots of choices and not overly spicy.
  Will return in a week for more yummy food. Has to be a Wednesday or a Friday.
