I really wanted some Indian food and was calling around like crazy to find one that was open. I was kind of nervous to try this... place because of the mixed reviews but I was craving it so gave it a try. I ordered over the phone and the food was just aboutready when I got there. There is a private parking lot there so you can parkin the plaza. When I walked in, it was empty asmost places are because of what's going on. The server brought me my food and it costed about $20 for everything. I orderedChana Masala and naan. The naan was pricy at $4. When I got home, I dug in and it was really good and filling. I couldn'tfinish the food so will have it for leftovers. Not a bad experience at all. Read more
Nice food. We just visited for a office lunch. Place was quite calm. Less crowded. Newly renovated I think ... must try makai... ja roti. Only thing we expected to have buffet which was not the case on that day... they have arrangement hope they will startsoon. Read more
Authentic food and excellent service. Their Lentil soup is by far one of the best. I tried their lamb kabob and lamb biryany and... it was incredibly delicious, much better than a lot of Indian restaurants I?ve been to. Plenty of parking space on the outside,and nice setup on the inside. Staff is very friendly and service is excellent. I recommend this place for Indian food lovers. Read more
Very mixed feelings about this dhabba(restaurant). The good: BYOB. thats the best part. Bring your own booz and drink till... you're dead. Big nice cozy space and nice owners The bad: it closes pretty early. But as it doesnt serve liquor that makes sensetoo. But if you wanna party here, start early. The food: I've had better. Much better. Indian food. The breads were great. Crispand fresh. Gives free papadam when you sit which is good. But just not great food. Chilli chicken was the best dish we tasted.Followed by paneer tikka though it did have added color to it. Lots of it. The verdict: will i visit again? Yes definitely onlyif I'm unable to find another byob indian restaurant. Read more
So I had heard lot of great things about this restaurant from one of my friends who used to come to this place 3-4 years back. I... used to live in the area but had never tried it so decided to give it a try while I was passing by. Looks like the standardshave fallen down from the time my friend used to come. The Veg Assortment was sub standard. The Paneer needed much moremarination. It totally was bland. Not if I wanted to drink Knorr Veg Hot and Sour soup, I would have bought it from store andpaid a dollar for it. I do not need to come to the restaurant for that. That is quite disappointing. Now the Curry was decentso two stars. When it came to Nan, we ordered their Bullet Nan. This nan is not on menu but you can ask for it. It is greenchilly nan, supposed to be really hot but I beg to differ. Overall a disappointing experience. Had expected much more. Thereare many way better Indian restaurant in the area. Do not waste time and money. Read more
The paneer tikka is the fakest ever very bad. Not only did the lady disagree that it was horrible she claimed that is how... Punjabis make it. Very sad for punjabis considering their great cuisine and hospitality. This place has neither. The butternaans were half cooked hardly had butter when served and smelled of raw dough. Would not recommended anyone go here, it's betterto have Mexican food as that would at least be more authentic and edible. Absolutely horrible service and behavior by lady incharge. Went to this place due to decent rating and reviews but was proved wrong. Anyone who knows what authentic Punjabi foodis would not say this place serves the same because they do not. Carpets on the floor look dirty and like haven't been cleanedin ages. The owner obviously has no clue maybe because from Singapore and neither speaks Punjabi nor has any idea about realPunjabi food the way it should be cooked. I felt fleeced for food that I could not even eat and most of the stuff was left as itis on the table. Also one does not put plain roasted powdered jeera in masala soda, that is for Dahi vadas etc. For masala sodau have something called jaljeera. There is difference and any Indian used to same would know and point out the same. Feltextremely bad and disgusted. I wonder how this place had such great reviews because I felt misleaded and let down by them. A bigletdown. Read more
We always order food from here and our guest love it all the time. Just ordered food from here yesterday and was really good. I... personally loved their mix veg Tikka masala and Garlic chicken for gravy's. Mango kheer is my most favourite desert that thisplace serves. Also, this restaurant is the very reasonably priced for the quality of food you get. Would recommend it to all. Read more
