Rude Business, Rude Patrons, and an Unpleasant Stench…read more From the moment I walked in, I should've trusted my nose--there was a strong stench that set the tone for everything that followed. The male customers were shockingly rude, walking straight into my space as if I were invisible, expecting me to move out of their way. When I approached an open register, I politely asked the cashier if she was available. Instead of a simple answer, she huffed, rolled her eyes, and made it clear my presence was an inconvenience. That was it for me. I put everything back and walked out. I had planned to return with family and friends, but that changed quickly. Cultural differences or not, rude is rude, and bad customer service is still bad customer service. I won't be back.

I recently had a disappointing customer service experience at Taaza Mart. During checkout, I was…read moremistakenly charged twice for a masala packet. Upon noticing the error, I immediately returned to the store with my receipt and groceries to request a correction. While explaining the issue to another cashier, I politely mentioned that such mistakes can occur when new employees are still learning. However, my comment was met with a defensive and rude response, despite my intention being simply to highlight the importance of proper training. The store owner then became involved. After reviewing the receipt and the item in question, instead of promptly addressing the duplicate charge, I was asked whether I had taken an additional packet from the store shelf. I found this question inappropriate, as the receipt clearly showed the item had been charged twice. My only request was a refund for the incorrect charge. When I expressed my dissatisfaction and mentioned that I intended to share my experience through a customer review, the owner's attitude changed significantly. Rather than processing the small refund that was due, I was unexpectedly offered a refund for the entire purchase and told to keep the groceries. This gave the impression that the issue was being handled to discourage me from leaving feedback rather than to resolve the original mistake professionally. I declined this offer and requested that the matter be handled properly. After further discussion, the transaction was finally corrected. However, I was then accused of "threatening" the store simply because I stated my intention to leave an honest review of my experience. While mistakes can happen in any business, what matters most is how they are addressed. Unfortunately, I found the handling of this situation unprofessional, dismissive, and unnecessarily confrontational. The experience left me feeling frustrated, unfairly treated, and disappointed with the level of customer service provided.

The only thing that I didn't like were the prices compared to the quantity of what you get. The service here is great, a little pushy though. I felt like our waitress was almost a sales person. She was great at advising what to get but a little demanding and kept trying to push things on us to order. For apps we ordered the Samosa Chat & Palak Chat. They were good! For dinner we ordered the: Butter chicken (my fave) it had tender chicken which is a must. Chicken tiki masala, wasn't a huge fan of the chicken breast but it wasn't too dry. The Palak Paneer, another favorite. A goat dish with a coconut sauce which was alright but my mom loved it. The Raita was a bit too runny. The naan bread was delicious! Also the rice here was great! We were then convinced into ordering desert. We ordered this rose ice cream and then some pistachio dessert with the rose sauce. We were not fans. The rose sauce tasted artificial and like lip gloss in my opinion. I would for sure come back here just for the butter chicken, palak paneer and to try more.

For dinner, we had the Namaste Thali, masala dosa, and a chicken dish that was the same chicken that was on the Namaste Thali (it was good enough to continue eating, for sure) All of it was delicious. Some of the little condiments were spicier than others, but all were delicious. Be aware, the fish and the pork stew have the bones in. The dosa was like 2 feet long! We ate it all. The garlic naan was okay. Not the best we've ever had. Interior doors could be painted- that would be a nice update. You order on a kiosk at the counter and they bring you your food. When you click on an item, it'll give you a description most times. It was yummy enough for me to comment that I would like to eat there once a week but since I only eat out once a week, it just has to go in the rotation.

I feel they need to have open flame tandoori. The last dish is butter chicken dosa. This dish worth the value. The dosa did it perfectly. Overall experience is 4.5 stars.

When I entered, I was surprised to see the welcoming atmosphere with outdoor seating. I ordered Dahi Puri from Chaat Rasoi and a Ghee Karam Podi Masala Dosa from Annapoorna Rasoi.

The combination of dosa and dahi puri was perfect as dinner.

They also have specials so be sure to check out the board outside. The specials are also posted inside near the register. Bottled drinks also available. We ordered the veggie curry, butter chicken, samosas (veggie) and garlic naan. About 15 minutes later our food was ready. It was served with rice also. We sat outside and ate. It was PLENTY of food for us to share and take some home for our second meal each. The flavor profile of the samosas was unreal! Just plain delicious and I loved that they were served on a bed of fresh sliced veggies. I actually added the veggies to my plate and ate along with my curry and chicken. Both entree dishes were tasty and made me want to not stop eating lol. Great place. Go support local and give this place some more 5 star reviews!!

I love Bawarchi Biryanis. They make the most incredible family size lamb Biryanis OuiOui…read more If you order the "Family pack" it comes with Raita & another sauce $54.99. We get one to go every time we visit. We LOVE our lamb Biryanis SPICY, Indian HOT, and Bawarchi Biryanis delivers just that. Nose running, mouth on fire, sweating forehead with no regrets. Hahaha :)... I have been visiting both locations & last time I was at the Brandon location & got the lamb Biryani family pack to go (SPICY) not only was it NOT spicy, there was hardly any lamb in it, it was mostly rice. My tribe was very upset about it. The tatunka white buffalo elders warned me next powwow if things didn't improve, I would be cast out of the circle of truth & be put on fish gut fertilizer duty. So, to keep from getting demoted from my high ranking position in my tribe, I decided to get the highly sought after Bawarchi Lamb Biryani family pack (INDIAN HOT) from the Wesley Chapel location. It not only did not disappoint, it was so amazeballs that I was promoted to "Lady Medicine Chief" harmonic Shamanic healer & "teacher of the sun dance" sister. While I was also at the Wesley Chapel location, I also had the Saag lamb & garlic naan. The Lamb Saag was so freakin perfectly balanced, lamb so tender, full of healing ginger & spices, so perfectly spicy, my forehead was sweating, my nose running, mouth on FIRE with no regrets. Both, the best I have ever had OuiOui. For moi, Bawarchi Biryanis, their Wesley Chapel tribe, has emerged as a holistic system of "food as medicine" emphasizing the balance of mind, body & spirit. From one Shamanic healer to another, it is my belief that Ancient healing practices have long been integral to human societies, playing a significant role in addressing health & wellness long before the advent of modern medicine. It is my belief that Bawarchi Biryanis understands these ancient healing practices, utilizing a combination of whole spice rituals, herbs & spiritual connection. It would be of my greatest & highest honor to give Bawarchi Biryanis Wesley Chapel tribe's most beautiful herbal healers & medicinal practitioners 5 stars. You are unmatched in, almost, every way.. However, both times I was there the bathroom door continues to be covered in dirty hand prints. I'm not sure why this is happening & it's not being cleaned properly. The place is so small it would only take 20 mins with a bucket of bleach water to wipe it all down back white again. Cleanliness is also a state of purity, freshness, of natural healing & enhances mental well-being. To the Chef/Owner: All the senses are here, what you have already achieved is beyond winning. However, do not surrender your own mind, body & spirit of Cleanliness to declare premature Victory. The greatest victory is that which requires no battle, in your case, it will only require 20 mins & a bucket of bleach. A clean & pure environment is necessary for survival. Please, teach your tribe to also practice the art of cleanliness. Let's Win it all together. Will return. Namaste.
