    Cold samosas and hard rice with old chicken on top.
    Palapala E.

    Cold samosas?? Really? I have never ordered samosas that were not fresh out of the hot oil. When I ordered online I was expecting FRESH FOOD. The Chili Garlic 65 Chicken covering crunchy rice was a complete disappointment. The grilled pita had a weird smell to it. The vegetable samosas were refrigerator cold. I have never had Indian cuisine this bad. The service was slow. I had to ring the bell twice before someone came to the front. The restaurant was clean in the dining area. No tissue in the bathroom, so you may have to go to Starbucks to use the restroom as I did.

    The food is always amazing here. I've tried the mango lassi, I've tried their Chinese food, but my favorite menu item of all is the combo chicken and lamb rice mix. get the extra white sauce, extra meat, and extra red sauce because you're gonna need it . The service is always very fast, and if there is a wait, I don't mind because there's an area where you can sit and play games inside the building. I love they recently renovated the building and expanded to include that area.

    Very flavorful and great value. Service was friendly and they do have dining in as well.

    I like this very city like urban concept of walk up window for quick pick up for lunch. We grabbed a couple of dishes and they were all flavorful- would highly recommend Jamaican patty (we only got one but menu says two included) chicken and lamb New York style bowl and a butter chicken. The rice is perfection (not too sticky, every grain individual) - token Indian appreciation for this alone. The New York style bowl is flavorful however I wish there was just a little more sauce New York style. It's a perfect pick up for lunch or dinner and if you call ahead you don't really have to park either- they're located right by the rail road tracks so if you're using gps tracks it'll loop you around.

    Always consistently good. Between the rice, the seasoned meat and the sauces on top. It's always delicious. The portions are huge as well.

    Every time I try a new food item here it's so good. Fav place for Indian food. The service has gotten better and better with time. Their new interior restaurant is very casual Ambiance. Small space but great food.

    Butter Lamb and Samosa
    DeMario M.

    This is one of my favorite places to get Indian food. The butter chicken is always on point. Today I had the butter lamb..OMG!!! The samosas are always great too-- dip them in the butter chicken sauce.. thank me later

    Samosas!
    Carolyn E.

    We ordered catering for lunch through ezcater, and it was almost perfect - they just forgot the baklava! A little sad, but the charge was immediately removed, so no harm done. The food was hot, fresh and on time otherwise. We had: veggie samosas, Jamaican beef patties, the NY style chicken and rice platter, butter chicken and veggie curry. The samosas were ok, but needed more seasoning, and I was sad that they didn't come with a tamarind dipping sauce. I will ask next time! The beef patties were slightly spicy and flavorful - perfect. The NY style chicken and rice was very popular - I think I'll get that again. The veggie curry was fine, but not excellent, but the butter chicken was tender and tasty. Overall, a very nice lunch option, especially if you're tired of the traditional sandwich/salad type spread. Will order regularly; generous portions.

    Lamb Pita
    Starvel D.

    I had the lamb pita & it was delicious. The bread is nwarm and soft. The meat is flavorful and tender. The lettuce was fresh. I wish they would've added a little more sauce. Next time, I will definitely get some on the side. I came for dine in because according to Google they offered that, however when I got there they only have takeout. FYI, you order outside then wait so be prepared. There were a few tables outside for dining.

    This place is a hit! Especially after a night out from drinking. Perfect spot, across from o tooles. I was skeptical about how the food would taste because it's fusion but it's actually super delicious! My friend who is Indian had their butter chicken and she said it was good! The beef patties were amazing! Especially because we got it fresh! Even the mango lassi is awesome also but cold to drink while standing in the cold. Definitely will hit this place up more!

    The quality of food has declined. Butter chicken used to be one of my favorite take-out meals, but it has not been as good lately.

The truth is, I don't want to share. I will hoard my precious bowls of butter chicken and forget all decorum. There is something beguiling about this sauce... and yes, I realize I'm talking about food. But you have to try this dish to understand my devotion. It is about more than the flavor which is incredibly layered, but it's so silky and rich that I could probably drink it by the cupful. Yes, I'm talking about food, don't look at me! Let me just eat in peace, with a giant spoon and a bib. I will even use a veil to hide my shame. The service is always friendly and lovely, and I think they might be a little worried when the tall white lady comes in all wild eyed and hungry. The ambiance is fine, as far as I know, my singular mission is to obtain the butter chicken, I am not sure if they have tables and chairs. The menu looks incredible, with recipes that are probably just as delicious as the butter chicken. But here is my problem... if I try another dish that is just as good as the BC, then what do I do?! I will be back here with another confession even more delicious.

Keep seeing lots of folks picking up orders and double parking their cars in the driveway to come in and pick up their carry out orders. Ordered starter Gobi Manchurian, veggie samosa, 2 dal soup, Chana masala, Tarka daal, mushroom bhaji and tandoori chicken. $94.24 They gave us the crunchy thin Papadum. Be careful while eating that the seasoning on top doesn't flip up into your eyes, it did that to my husband. He flicked off the seasoning so it wouldn't do it again. The Papadum is good. There was a random empty water bottle at the table. Table top is peeling, needs a refinish. I would put the fly strip in a more discrete spot and not hang it in the vestibule behind the counter. The samosas are good, dough is nice and light, like a wonton and it's packed with potatoes, peas and corn, which is a bit odd. It's better with some chutney. The Gobi Manchurian tastes good, just not crispy at all. The lentil soup is scalding, it's good. I like the roasted garlic in the soup and added some lemon to it as well. The Chana masala is okay, they put potatoes in it as filler instead of more chick peas. Other than the potatoes, it's good. The butter chicken is rather sweet, it's still pretty good. I am glad the chicken chunks aren't too big in this dish. Not a fan when it seems like the pieces are half a breast of chicken. Mushrooms aren't too bad. Not special. The lentils are good. Their garlic naan tastes sweet, almost, it's decent. The tandoori chicken is good.
