Jesus Christ. What a mess. I didn’t think it was possible to mess up butter chicken but somehow they (or whatever restaurant I got food from did). I don’t think they actually have a location and I think the food came from mood. This place is probably some kind of scam run by a bunch of shady philly dudes

Ordered butter chicken and garlic naan through Postmates. Arrived warm but the order of naan was missing. Messed up the entire meal. Butter chicken was not too bad. I live close by and they posted a 30 minute delivery time which was actually an hour. Will not order there again.

Food arrived hot and quickly. Good portion sizes…enough for 2nds the next day. Spicing was perfect. We ordered dishes from mild to maximum hot. Rice was a bit clumpy, but everything else was very good. Will order again.

I ordered through DoorDash and they said “we could not see that you made an order.” They don’t even have a number to contact the restaurant. I waited two hours until I finally just called the restaurant. Luckily I was about to get a refund through door dash. This was a miss. Do not order food from here through the app.

Fraudulent!!!! We ordered from this restaurant and ended up receiving food from Desi Village. They charge more for this pathetic food than if you order the same food through Desi village. This is a scam. They operate under 3 different names. Do not buy from Gun powder, Desi village or Tik Tock Tikka.

I ordered on Uber eats on Sunday night at 7pm and when the driver went to pick food. They said they are not preparing orders for the day and didn’t bother to notify myself or the Uber driver. Literally had to wait for an hour and half for an update. The worst experience ever!!

0 star. Ordered peshawari chicken biryani worth 22$ and I was served salty and oily biryani. Also, Raita doesn’t come with biryani you have to order separately. What a joke !!! Shut the door and do something else, don’t serve bad quality food !

Ordered Butter Chicken Peshawari, Dal and a few other things from here. Chicken was rubbery and the gravy was so watered down and tasteless. Dal was bland. Really bad experience ordering food from here.
