This restaurant was recommended by a friend who grew up in India, and so we had to visit! He said…read morethis spot is as good as what you can get in India. One thing you need to get here is a rava dosa. We got the Cheese Onion Rava Masala Dosa, which was so so good. Super crispy and flavorful--it's the best feeling when you get hear the crunch after ripping a piece of dosa off to eat. Many of the components of the South Indian Thali were also very yummy too, and was also a good size portion. I'm usually not a fan of chickpeas, but this was great! Service was decent and filled up pretty quickly, even had a wait on a different day that we went, which says a lot about a restaurant in Hicksville (and how you know it's good too). What we ordered: - Cheese Onion Rava Masala Dosa - South Indian Thali - Mango Lassi

Fresh puri and plenty of sauces, fresh rice and a very nice spread of Indian favorites. I really enjoyed everything they had to offer and especially the vegetarian options such as dhal and paneer. Great service and the only caveat is that any naan is purchased separately as it's not included in the ayce price. You can also just order fresh plates of any combination off their à la carte menu. We opted for the lunch buffet and were very satisfied and both price point and quality were excellent. The restaurant itself is nice with great ambiance and plenty of seating. There's also plenty of beverage options. We've been back twice already and anticipate many more visits.

Parking's a little tight, but you can also grab a spot along the sidewalk if the lot is full. The four of us shared the TOC Special Dosa (stuffed with mixed veggies and cheese, rolled up with their sauces), Aloo Gobi Masala, two curries, and mango lassis. Everything was delicious, but my favorite dish was the Aloo Gobi Masala - potatoes, cauliflower, and a mildly spiced tomato sauce. Service was great and we literally finished every bite. Definitely recommend checking it out!

The spiciness is perfect and doesn't overpower the dish. When I ordered for people who couldn't handle the heat their mild prepared dishes were equally tasty. I have been inside the restaurant and it is a modest space with a few tables and chairs for diners. The restroom is off of the main entrance/vestibule which is a little odd, but they made due with the space they have. The workers are so wonderful and kind. I once parked in the wrong spot behind the building (tow-away zone) and it was raining and they said that after I pay for the order they'll bring it to me in that lot. I told them the color and make of my car and that's what they did. It was really nice of them to do that. The leftovers of the curries go well with chicken thighs or other meats if you don't want to let it go to waste!! One star removed for the garlic naan. It was tough and chewy vs light and fluffy and it was lacking in flavor. Happy eats !

We explained our spice preference, which is a little bit on the spicier side and they delivered perfect spiced dishes. We started with the vegetable samosas, which had a slightly different flavor than what we usually get, a better flavor. So good. We also started with the Baghari shrimp. The sauce was so flavorful that I wanted to drink it like a soup. The chicken vindaloo was flavorful and perfectly spicy. The lamb Rogan Josh was as tasty as can be and also perfectly tasty. The mixed bread basket (naan) was excellent. For dessert, I was skeptical. We ordered one carrot halwah, ( it's carrots). We ordered one to share. It was the the best dessert I have ever had in an Indian restaurant and would be on a great dessert list anywhere. I would eat a vat of it. Waiter said that they eat it for breakfast. Everything was perfect. If you are from the area and believe you should support local, try them out. If you like Indian food you will come back.

It's also great that they offer zabiha halal options, which makes it more accessible and comfortable to order from. The food itself is where they shine. The biryani is especially good--aromatic, fresh, and well-layered in flavor. The haleem is rich, hearty, and very satisfying, and dishes like the keema luqmi also feel freshly made and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell there's real effort behind the savory items. That said, the menu feels a bit unfocused now. With the addition of things like Chinese dishes and smoothies, it starts to feel a little scattered instead of staying true to its Hyderabadi identity, which is a bit confusing as a customer. The decor is very modern and clean, but it doesn't really reflect the cultural richness of the cuisine--something more traditional like places such as Sunshine Restaurant would've suited it better. On the downside, the desserts were also not a hit for me--they leaned too sweet and didn't feel as balanced as the savory dishes.

Favorites included the lamb chops, the boursin potatoes were beyond delicious. And the amul stuffed paratha. Chicken biryani and Chicken tandoori were middle of the road.

There's a lot more on menu I want to try and I will be back! Dress code is a little unknown, some diners were dressed nicer and others were in sweatpants. Not sure what the vibe is for the evening.
