    Biryani

    Great quantity for affordable price!! Ordered samosa chat, the famous goat biryani and veg biryani. Samosa chat is good and biryanis are very spicy but taste was okay.

    Came here with a party.of seven. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed our meal outside which was quiet, clean and convenient.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was about 5:15 on a Sunday evening with a steady stream of customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's order at the counter,.so study the menu before you arrive. If you don't know what you want they can help you. You can also order online while you are in the store. You will be greeted by A massive.double case of dessert choices. Eat first then decide about dessert. We ordered to eat family style. It was all excellent. We had ander, Pakora, masala dosa, butter chicken,.and goat curry. It was.all excellent. Service was fast and efficient..attached to the restaurant is a store to pick up some of your favorite Indian food.

    Food here is a hit or miss. Chapattis that came were not fully cooked. On the other hand Uttapam was pretty good. Chicken curry was poor, Paneer Karahi was great. The rice of Chicken Briyani was fresh and aromatic but the chicken pieces were average. The service speed varies with what you order. I got myself Uttapam which took a good 20 minutes. They would give you Briyani in 5 minutes. The dining area doesn't feel that hygienic.

    It blows my mind that you think this small quantity of Sambar is the right amount for 3 idlies , seriously do some analysis

    It blows my mind that you think this small amount of sambar is acceptable for 3 idlies. Do some analysis. It wasn't even 5 spoonful!!

    In a sort of nondescript building, this market and Indian cafe deli is a hidden gem. We were looking for some Indian food and having a hard time finding something with dine-in and open Monday evenings, and this place was where we (luckily) ended up. Got here and there was a bit of a line to order at the counter. The menu is on some screens as well as a laminated menu, but the laminated menu included some items they didn't currently have. Line moved quick - we ordered rava masala dosa, butter chicken, and kadai paneer. At the last second we added an order of medu vada. Food came out as it was prepared, we had a little buzzer to notify us when to go for pickup. Everything tasted delicious and we wished we weren't staying in a hotel so we could take back leftovers. Was fun to also walk around the market!

    These people arrived AFTER I got there and were served before me.

    The food is fantastic and there's always lots of people here. That said, when you order food online and request a certain time to pick it up, and it's approved for that time, there should be no reason why that food isn't ready when you're there to pick it up. I waited 50 minutes to get my food, which had been ordered an hour earlier. They were nice enough to add another meal for the inconvenience. Good thing since they neglected to put in one of the meals I actually ordered. Here's a suggestion - make your take-out times for after 1:00 since the lunch hour is an absolute chaotic mess!

    This Cafe style restaurant sharing the space with the supermarket feels super authentic. When visiting any ethnic food place, I look to see if the customer demographic represents the region, and this place has all the indicators in place. The thali here is fantastic, both non-vegetarian and vegetarian. I also see a lot of dosa being ordered, so that's something that I've also enjoyed. I don't recommend take away for the dosa, as it softens quickly and loses the crispness that you get to enjoy while on site. Some of the chicken dishes are bone-in, so just be mindful of that. Service is lackluster from time to time, but good enough for me to recommend friends to visit this place over and over.

    Yummy

    We are regular vegetarian customers and enjoy the healthy food and the fantastic employees who are always helpful and friendly. Last night we tried some different items. Of note the Sambar was delicious, but it seemed absent of lentils and had very few vegetables. All the best wishes.

    This is legit authentic and delicious Indian food. It is easily the best Indian restaurant I've…read moretried in recent years. The location and atmosphere is nothing special, but that isn't why you come here. Both times I've gone it's been busy, but we were able to get seated right away. The paneer makhani curry is delectable. It's rich, sweet, spicy, creamy, and has a great depth of flavor and spices. The shrimp biryani was the standout dish for me that I still keep thinking about. The rice was aromatic and cooked perfectly, while the shrimp was robust, bright, and very spicy. I would recommend ordering a spice level down from what you would normally get.The mini samosas were packed with flavor and I loved all onions in them. The garlic naan was also solid. All around incredible food!

    I was genuinely excited to re-order from this place after a wonderful first experience with their…read moreMughlai dishes. Unfortunately, my second order via DoorDash missed the mark in two significant ways: 1) Spice level not honored: I ordered butter chicken and Mughlai paneer and selected "mild", specifically because my 5-year-old was going to eat with me. What arrived was unbearably hot, even for an adult used to spicy Indian food. I double-checked my receipt and the mild selection was clearly there. Neither dish was edible for my child, and I could barely get through it myself. What's especially frustrating is that my first order at mild spice came out perfectly mild. Dishes like butter chicken and Mughlai korma-style preparations are traditionally on the gentler end of the heat spectrum. It would be great if the restaurant could maintain consistency in honoring spice level selections, as it makes a difference for the person eating it. 2) No rice with the main course: In every Indian restaurant I've visited globally, a main entree comes with a side of rice as standard. I didn't select "extra rice" on DoorDash assuming this was a given, and added only a garlic naan. What arrived was two entrees and a very small portion of naan (two thin slices, really enough for one person), and no rice at all. A heads-up on the menu or at checkout that rice is not included would go a long way. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously, because the food itself is very tasty!

All were so tasty! And the staff were all so nice and welcoming! We'll definitely be back!

    This turned out to be a very disappointing experience…read more We went expecting an Indian buffet not very different from others we have tried elsewhere in the past. What we got was unexpected and not good. I was looking forward to the Butter Chicken that was on the buffet menu. What I found was a restaurant tray with a bit of sauce in it, and not a single piece of chicken. I thought, "No problem. I'll go again when they bring some more out." We were there about an hour. That pan was never changed or added to. I tried the sauce over some rice and it tasted good. It became obvious the longer I waited that they weren't going to refresh this dish. (The buffet still had over an hour before closing). Then there was a dish called Garlic Chicken. This consisted of small, very bony pieces of chicken that were very dark, having had any tenderness cooked out of them long ago. The boniness was a concern that even my wife mentioned without my prompting. It looked as if someone had taken a meat cleaver to a chicken and just hacked away at it. Jagged pieces of bone all over. Not good! There were some vegetarian options that I didn't try, and a dessert similar to Kheer, but made with skim milk, I think. It was runny like gruel. There were two employees there, I have no idea if a chef was hiding in the back, perhaps ashamed to show his or her face. These two were more interested in chatting and sitting than in doing something so ridiculous as updating the hot dishes. I am on a mission now to try and find a decent Indian Buffet. We haven't been to a good one since Sagat stopped serving the buffet during Covid. Oh, one last note: They had a sign instructing customers to reuse their plates. Really? They were too damn lazy to wash the dishes, I guess. We used new plates. As for this hole-in-the-wall, we will NOT be back!
