    This is a to go meal review- Me and my husband were cold and hungry during the freeze and double checked with them by calling they were open. We ordered on DoorDash- Chicken biryani Garlic naan Butter panner Pakoras It arrived still hot! The paneer came With rice, I noticed it was a bit on the sweeter end. I also think the base of the curry is made with water not milk or cream, the consistency I'm used to with indian food is different. It was mild! Which I appreciated since I cannot handle spicy food. Garlic naan was good! Pakoras were a bit too soft and oily for me but tasted good. All of this came with raita, what we thought was a sweet chutney and mint chutney but the sweet chutney might have ended up as biryani sauce? It was different! Overall food was decent, I wouldn't necessarily be back for their curries but do want to try their biryani. I'm guessing they are known for biryani since it is caused Biryani Express. My husband really enjoyed the chicken biryani!

    Updating the review: bad food is health hazard, changing stars to minimum aloo masala was spoilt in the masala dosa, They took it back and packed a 'fresh' one but that smelt even worse than the first. Bad! We got the chilli bajji to enjoy the rain outside and crispy corn, both these were crispy hot and excellent.... yummy. Today's restaurant lesson: nothing which requires aloo masala should ever be ordered here.

    Did an order through ubereats. Everything was fresh, flavorful and decent portions. We had the butter chicken, garlic naan, chana masala, bhindi masala and samosas.

    It was pretty good. The chicken 65 had a little too much grease. The goat curry was good. Pretty normal. The biryani was good too. Mango lassi was fresh and thick. Service was good too. Place was decent. Overall, an ok experience. Pretty normal. Not spectacular but good. I would go back for good food.

    Visited them before they moved to the new location. Loved it then but it's so much more comfortable and pretty than before. Love the mini colored fires. Food hasn't changed. So good. And our server was so sweet. We chatted about the future of the restaurant, introducing more Indian foods like specials and such. I love this place. I will also say my US Navy Vet husband has been all over the world, and this is his favorite Indian restaurant.

    This was my second time going to this place, and I really enjoy it! The waiters are super friendly, and the food comes out fast. I used to not like samosas, however, this place changed my mind about them. Love this place, and I will continue going here as long as they keep it up! My favorite thing here is the Butter Chicken with Garlic Naan. I know that's very typical to order, but they do it so well here. It's creamy and the chicken pieces are large, tender, and there's many. I got a few bones, but I didn't mind since the pieces were so big. The curry is on the sweeter side, however it's still good. The naan is fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside, super garlicky, and just delicious. Overall, I ordered two curries just for myself, and it lasted me three separate meals. The portions are definitely big, so you'll be getting your money's worth.

You can ask to see the piece of rib before they cut it for you and they will happily oblige (patrons behind you might not be so thrilled with that move, but they'll live). Sides were excellent as were the mashed potatoes with white gravy on the side, green beans that were just tender enough, but also a bit crunchy. Perfect. They were seasoned with pork, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. We also ordered their shareable onion rings, easily enough for three people that were huge, hot, and crispy. Let's get this out of the way, some of their prices are a little up there, but if you're anything like me, and don't frequent BBQ places often, it's a rare but enjoyable treat. Sometimes you have to splurge and live a little. Also, they have their regular sauce on tables, but you now have to ask the cashier for their sublime coffee BBQ sauce. Don't be shy, ask. It's worth it. Oh, pro tip: If you want beef ribs, the 'plate' is actually cheaper and a better deal than 'by the pound', so save a little money and get two sides.

The people that handle the sides were soft spoken and mumbling. And the tip culture .

They definitely loaded it with sauces, the philly meat, cheese and topped it off with veggies - like the menu describes. Because of this, it would've been great if the fries were more crispy because it just aided in them becoming super soggy, super quick. I personally would not get this entree again. The wings were definitely fresh and well fried. I ended up getting the sauce on the side because the description of the sauces from the staff member at the register confused me a bit lol. I would get the wings again but next time get them sauced instead of having the sauce separated. More sauce options would've been nice too. The total cost for the loaded fry and the 6 piece wing came out to about $30 which I feel was a bit pricey. The seated patio area, however, was cool and allowed me to get some fresh air while I ate. I would go back to try one of the burgers, since it's literally a burger spot. Hoping that could shift my perspective and raise my rating of the place.

Being from St Croix island in the Virgin Islands, seeing the menu and taking in the smells of this place gave her memories of back home. Of course I was happy to indulge her request as it gave me an opportunity to try some handheld eats. First the beef pattie, pretty big and so savory with the meat melting in your mouth and the dough having a nice texture and crust. And then the saheena; OMG! It was my first time having this lovely pastry which is made of chickpeas, spinach, and caribbean spices. You'll be hooked on this after one bite. Texture was similar to a savory piece of cornbread. Of course I was very happy with this item. The girlfriend ordered a currant roll which had some sweetness to it with a flaky crust. I enjoyed it but not as much as I was scarfing down my beef pattie and saheena. They also serve traditional caribbean eats including jerk chicken, oxtails, bake & saltfish, and roti wraps. We noticed a lot of people place to go orders here and call ahead for pick up. There were several bags of eats waiting as we witnessed people roll in and pick them up while having small talk with the owners. All those items looked delicious and we plan to come back and try those out. We also talked to the owners for a bit, they're a husband/wife team who've owned/operated this place for a while. Super polite and gracious, they helped me navigate the menu and explained what the items would be like when I ordered. Sadly I could not get the Aloo Pie (sold out) but they assured me it's worth having and to come back and try it (which we will). Pearland is lucky to have this place here. Definitely recommend trying it out for yourself!
