We ordered a variety of dishes including masala dosa, malai kofta, paneer tikka, paneer butter masala, idli, garlic naan, mango lassi, and filtered coffee--every single item was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The staff were incredibly helpful, attentive, and made sure our large group was well taken care of throughout the meal. The ambience was colorful, vibrant, and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a special celebration. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience, and we left completely satisfied. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy authentic, delicious food in a lively and welcoming atmosphere!

This is probably the second one star review I have ever posted…read more The butter chicken had about four small pieces of chicken in it. I also ordered the spinach pakora.

If I could give this place negative stars, I would. I was sent here on a mission by my mother and…read moremy spouse to order vegetable pakora for a very specific dish, khadi pakora. It's a yogurt-based curry with CRISPY pakora in it. I came here thinking "any restaurant can make pakora, it's literally just deep-fried, battered vegetables." This was a mistake I have already lived to regret. Before I describe the food, I'll note that I ordered online and was advised to pick it up in 20-35 minutes. I arrived on the later end of this range. I went into the restaurant and no one was seated inside, but it was a Monday night so maybe that's a quiet day for them. I went up to the counter to pick up my order. There was nobody there but someone came out after I rang the bell. I picked up my order and went home, not thinking to check it. I arrived home with the goods in hand. My mother opened it and gave me a look of disappointment, contempt, and disgust. The pakora was cold, limp, and not battered. It seemed like it was microwaved or even just taken straight out of the fridge. We still made the curry, but it was an abomination. I've never had pakora this bad. If you're looking for Indian food in the metro, go literally anywhere else or my Indian mother will be disappointed in you, too.

I'm so glad I stopped by this cute spot in an unassuming strip mall. The owners made the small…read morespace inviting. Bright paint on the walls with colorful photographs, a slightly raised space with cushions that might be used for a performance, and long tables that invite family-style dining. I chose this spot because I was curious about their "Afghan hamburger," which was sausages, hard boiled eggs, various vegetables, and fries with spicy ketchup in a tortilla-like wrap, exactly as described. The fries were pleasantly crispy, and I enjoyed the spicy ketchup. I wanted and got something different. The wrap came with a generous portion of chutney, perhaps the same mint walnut chutney I've seen elsewhere. I washed it down with salt lassi, which hit the spot for me. It wasn't too salty, and it had fresh cucumber in it. I was a little confused when the prices at the register were slightly higher than the prices on the menu, but it was still reasonably priced, especially these days. It would be great if someone updated the menu prices. I took home some sabzi palak (spinach stew) to go. Even though both the stew and the fresh bread it came with had cooled down by the time I got home, they were delicious! As soon as I finished eating, I ran to my computer to look up a recipe. That stew hit it out of the park. I will never think of spinach in the same way again. Next time we're in the neighborhood, I will definitely take my spouse here.

You can fill them with beautifully spiced vegetarian or meat options, a variety of zesty chutneys (sauces), fresh salads/toppings, and something crunchy. I got the lunch deal: it's a half-rice bowl with the paratha bread and their sauce on the side. I filled it with basmati rice, chicken tikka masala, milt cilantro and pickled aioli, all the "fresh" options, and crispy fried chickpea with the masala fried. So flavorful I loved it! Whether you're new to Indian food, or just looking for something to spice up your life while shopping, it's definitely worth the stop. The staff was friendly and explained menu items I wasn't familiar with. I love coming here when I'm at the MOA, or to their other locations around the Twin Cities.

Inside,…read morethe food came out quickly and our server was absolutely great, but the front of the house was a bit of a different story. The young host was running around looking very flustered, which made the vibe feel way more chaotic. Thankfully, it looked like the owner noticed and helped take over organizing the staff and getting guests arranged at tables. We noticed they have a really fun cafe setup called The Corner Café with its own window in the corner. It was closed when we were there, but it turns out they actually operate as a full-service artisan coffee shop during the morning and afternoon, serving Spyhouse coffee and pastries before shifting entirely to fine dining at night! For dinner, my husband ordered the sticky cauliflower as an appetizer and declared it "the best cauliflower 'chicken' bites he's ever had"--he also absolutely loved the white sauce it came with. He also got the mango yuzu drink which was super refreshing. For entrees, we ordered the coconut curry, which had a great flavor and wasn't overly sweet (which can sometimes happen when a kitchen overdoes the coconut milk). I ordered the Delhi butter chicken. The waiter mentioned that their spice scale is a "Minnesota spice" scale, so I felt safe upgrading to medium since I usually order mild. Flavor-wise, it had a bit too much tomato flavor for my personal preference, but it was still well prepared and the pieces of chicken had a lovely, smoky flavor.
