I was in the mood for Indian and tried this spot. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. I ordered the shrimp kadai and it took about 15 minutes. I paid and left. When I dug in the meal was nice and spicy. I enjoyed the flavor. All in all I had a good experience.

We ordered samosa, veg. Biryani and tandoori chicken. Everything was super delicious. Biryani was the best and spicy just like the way I love. Staff is super generous. They even gave us a complimentary dessert. Everything was great. Must visit. Highly recommended.

I ordered $75.00 worth of food for a workplace lunch during the week of August 7th through Uber Eats, plus all of the extra fees and delivery tip that i paid it came out to be almost $94.00. I have ordered from them before so not sure what happened but this time about half of the order was either completely inedible or missing. More specifically, the chicken Tikka masal probably had about 5 dice sized pieces chicken in it and had about 1 inch of oil swimming on top; there was so much oil that the cream gravy was separated. It was completely inedand we threw it in the trash. The grandma’s chicken special curry dish was also inedible and we threw both of those entrees into thr trash. Again, the cream sauce and mostly chicken bones and broken off pieces of chicken bones were incredibly oily, not quite 1 inch of oil on top, more like 1/3 of an inch of oil swimming on top, but in addition to this most of the chicken meat that was supposed to be there wasn’t. It was about 75% chicken bones and broken off pieces of chicken bones that we had to spit out. There was not one sliver or small piece of pepper or onion in either the chicken Tikka Masala or the Grandma’s chicken curry special. On top of this, the restaurant forgot to include the $3.00 mint chutney that we paid for. In all of our years of purchasing lunch while at work, this was the first time that we threw away entire entrees because they simply could not be eaten. We have ordered food from here previously so I don’t know what happened – maybe new owners or a new chef? Not sure but after this experience we will not go back. At least we were able to get our money back from Uber Eats for these 4 items but we still paid high Uber Eats fees and a considerable tip for food that no one could eat, which was not refunded to us.

Their veggie Biryani is terrible. There is little to no vegetable but simple rice and overall the dish I awful. The little container they provide is for the yogurt. Yes they are thay cheap and market over the phone you get a bowl of yogurt. They just recently opened up and I think all the 5 star review could be fake. Sorry. I will never be returning. On a positive note, the lady ringing me up was nice

Their food has flavor but gosh they mess up big time with stuff like goat meat, gyros. I received hard, less cooked goat meat in amazing Rogan josh gravy. Could barely eat the meat for which I ordered the main dish. Gyros were in coleslaw that’s not the usual gyro recipe and lacked flavor. Their biryanis, chicken tikka, butter chicken is good. Food is packed well.

I’ve only had great experiences when I pick up or if I have it delivered. I usually go with vegetarian/gluten free dishes. I’ve enjoyed the Pumpkin Malai Kofta and the Mix Veg Pakoda with the most spice. Portions can be enough for 1- 2 people.

I ordered Special chicken biryani, one of the worst I ever had.. they just mixed the regular biryani rice and thalapakattu biryani rice and even the chicken pieces in it are hard and no flavor to it, I would never order again.
