    Tikka masala, naan, samosa, rice
    Tess H.

    I went to Curry King to satisfy a late night craving. I was rather pleased with the flavors and the price. The ambiance is hole in the wall and no frills which is just what I was looking for for a late night snack. The price is right and the food is great. The service is no frills to match, but that wasn't what I went for, it was for the food. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

    Not sure what I ate honestly but it was good. Know 1 dish had chicken. 1 was cold veggies like eggplant and potatoes and peas. The saffron rice was excellent! 2 large pieces of chicken inside. The bread was pipping hot! This is called the managers special. Wait for it $6! Yes for all this food. The staff was very friendly. They are open very early to very late. A nice neighborhood family establishment!

    I like this place. Friendly service with tasty food. Grilled meats look incredible. Very fresh breads! Nicely seasoned rice. Looking forward to trying more food from here. I also appreciate the meticulously packaged food. They could benefit from having leakproof containers, but the plastic wrap really helps! I came here a second time and ordered chicken keema, which was delicious (and spicy!) (I wasn't sure about this before ordering, but the guy who came in after me ordered an entire plate of it! Now I know why!)

    I never received this

    Terrible service - I ordered three curry dishes for delivery and waited four hours. The money came out of my account, so I called Curry King who claimed they never received it, in spite of getting an order confirmation. After calling my bank and clearing it up with them, I called them directly to make a new order and they did not pick up.

    This is the best Indian food I've had in a very long, much better than my ex-favorite place in the east village.

    Lunch yesterday was a plump tandoori chicken leg, two chicken samosas and a naan. I sat there to…read moreeat. I was the only lady there and as I have written in earlier reviews no women come here. The chicken was fresh and tasty but I could manage only half and had it packed. Now the naans here are not the delicate fragrant ones at fancy Indian restaurants. These are thick ones with or without ghee smeared on top (to request) meant for the lumberjack. Here these are in the form of cab drivers and delivery men who need sustenance and no froo froo cuisine. The gender neutral restroom is in my opinion the "Black hole of Calcutta." For men, it may be passable but for women absolutely verboten to enter. At a pinch, go to Kalustiyan where there is a restroom up the stairs. Ideally only should buy something before asking to powder one's nose. Service at Lahori is fine.

I love tasting new restaurants and wanted to stop by this place . Fantastic location . Right in the heart of Lexington Avenue . Lots of other restaurants nearby. Lots of space inside to sit and eat . Even though the ambience is not that great , it's ok for a quick lunch .. service could be better. All guys go inside the kitchen and hardly come out . Wish they had a bell or something in the counter outside for the customers to call them . Sometimes you keep waiting for many minutes before they come out . For the price , food was good . They have many food items on display and we chose some curries .. quantity was good . Naan , white rice and 2 non veg curries for 13.50$. Not bad. ... goat curry was good . Perfect Lahori taste . Chicken curry was average . Could have tasted better . My only issue is presentation. The y just mix all curries in rice and they are smashed all across the plate . Wish they give these curries in separate containers so we can enjoy the flavor of each curries . Another thing is they just reheat these curries . They are precooked . Sometimes with that , we wouldn't know if it is fresh . It tasted fresh though. Overall a good restaurant but giving them 3 stars . Will visit again and check and improve my ratings if needed

Nothing fancy, just delicious food for an unbelievable price. When you walk into this large spacious "cafeteria" with steam trays, it looks clean and quiet. There was a lady at the cash register that wasn't too helpful, but I guess the communication barrier played a part. At $8.99 per pound, you can really fill up here for an insanely good price. My favorites have been the beef dishes and therefore often skip all the chicken items. However, feel free to make a plate anyway you like. At the end of the day, I'm sure it'll be great.

    This review is for the second location that recently opened on 9th Avenue, near 42nd Street…read more I have had food from this African style self-serve takeout several times, and the food is very good. The spicing can be quite different from other styles of cuisine, but whether or not you like it is a personal decision. I liked most of the food that was offered. I found the baked chicken to be excellent. The stewed chicken and the goat dish were also very good. Vegetables are all excellent...from greens to cabbage to carrots...all are delicious. The whole fish has a distinctive strong taste that took some getting used to...perhaps a lot of paprika and red pepper, but I'm not really sure...certainly a nice portion size. Staff is very friendly and hospitable. Highly recommended.
