Who knew Western and Indian cuisine could collide so gracefully? The comfort of the Western burger and the kick of Indian spices birth a harmony of texture and flavor that trailblazes fusion cuisine. My friend introduced this restaurant to me, and I was pleasantly surprised by the savor of tikka chicken within two well oiled buns. The fries were also crispy and well made. I would definitely recommend King and Cardinal for anyone looking to try new fusion cuisines! read more

BEST DESI VEGGIE BURGERS and this location is wayyyy better than the Irving one. My goto spot for desi burgers especially for guests or new people to DFW. Great for parties as well if you wanna serve it in halves or even quarters. I always call-in for a pickup order and it's always ready in a timely manner, staff is nice too. Tip: Get your burgers with curly fries instead of the Potato chips. Spicy Veg Burger (comes with the yummiest sauce): 10/10 Paneer Burger: 10/10 (make spicy if you like) read more

I used to be a huge fan of this place. Everyone that has had the wings at this place says the same thing, some of the best wings they have had. However, they have switched to a "Pre Breaded Frozen Wing" and now the flavor is almost nauseating. I ordered a small basket of butter chicken wings to try and the butter chicken sauce was great but the breading was so overpowering, I ended up eating 3 and had to stop due to getting nausea. Apparently, they were getting complaints on the size of their wings compared to price, and they switched vendors. I'd advise they switch back immediately or offer two options, breaded vs non-breaded. I'm happy to pay a bit more for better quality wings. Very disappointing. read more

Spicy mutton burger was very flavorful - first time trying mutton in a burger, and it tasted fantastic, great savory taste with some spice - not much spicy but added extra flavor. The chips on the side were nice - and everything was fairly cheap read more

Tasty burgers but please consider the following Feedback - place always smells of strong chemical cleaners - water filter is kind of broken and looks suspect - the shredded chicken or mutton burgers are good but there is any meat or protein .. wish they don't cheap out on the main ingredient read more

Had their classic chicken burger,man it was fresh juicy, the sauce was on point,the bread tasted fresh. Reminded me of chicken burger back home in India. Would definitely reccommend it.Its a must tryy. read more

Wanted to try this place after a underwhelming experience few years ago. Reporting back the place is actually disgusting. The food is not so great .. 3 starts but zero for hygiene .. The lady on the front was coughing covering her mouth with her hand and used the same hand (I was watching her like hawk and even asked her to satirize hands ) to make drinks (no gloves) read more

Amazing staff! They answered all our questions about the menu options. The food was fresh and tasted wonderful. Have to try the Maggi and any deserts they have. You will not be disappointed here. Outdoor seating is peaceful with string lights for a nice ambiance. It is a nice date night establishment or hang out with friends. Definitely one for our books. read more

Horrible wait time for a simple malai bun and chai. Efficiency and service time could be better read more

Absolutely worst customer service. Ask for extra sauce and they agree to add it and later did not add it when I called back they said they called the owner and the owner said no extra 2 extra sauces. read more

I love to support new businesses, and Indian food is one of my absolute favorites, which is why when I saw this American-Indian fusion burger place I knew I wanted to try it. When we got there I saw the floor was really dirty, but I figured they were just understaffed and let it slide. Honestly, that was when I should have walked out, because the tables and the rest of the small restaurant were just as filthy. Unfortunately, I didn't know that yet, so we ordered four burgers to go. Over the next forty minutes my friend and I waited at a table for our buzzer to go off, but instead we just watched other customers continue to get their to-go orders and eat-in orders ahead of us. I finally got up and asked about ours and the man behind the counter told us "5 more minutes" and then served yet another huge family that had come in after us. At that point I asked for a refund so we could leave, because we had two other people at the house waiting for food, but he told us to wait and walked into the back so I couldn't do anything else except wait at the register. When "our food" finally came out, I checked the meals and found my order was definitely wrong so they did give me a refund on that. Unfortunately, when we finally got to the house we discovered 2 out of the 3 meals left were also wrong. I'm pretty sure our meals were never made / forgotten and they handed us someone else's order in hopes we wouldn't notice. I got a refund on one of the four, but the rest is a wash. In conclusion? If you're looking to wait 45 minutes for incorrect food in a filthy restaurant, then you can give this place a try. I definitely won't be going back. read more

In the short time since discovering this place I've been here three times now because I've really enjoyed the food. Usually if i have someone from out of town over which has happened twice recently we've made sure to include this in our "must try" places. The spicy chicken, the spicy mutton are both great burgers. The sauce is a good. Mix of sweet and spice and the protein is prepared well. I've also gotten wings every time, trying different flavors and they are pretty good. Portions are good sized too. So 3 stars then? Service. Whether by bad luck or just poor operation, twice they have "missed" my online orders and not put them in queue so when I get to the restaurant I have had to wait. On top of that today's order was prepared and sat othe counter a good five minutes and no one bothered to tell me till i got up to inquire if my food was ready. (i was told 10 minutes, and i inquired at tbe 20 mark). The only time my food was not missed was when i came the first time and ordered in person. I'm miffed enough that I will be taking a break from patronizing them for a while. Hopefully they get their act together. The food is good. I'd like to keep coming here. read more

We ordered spicy Chicken burger and veggie burger spicy, also veggie cutlet. The veggie burger had dried up buns, the patty was alright. Overall, I wouldn't eat it again. The veggie cutlet was the same as the patty in the veggie burger, just potatoes battered and fried. Chicken burger was ok, the taste does not have the wow factor we had during our previous visits read more

I finally pulled the trigger and visited this burger joint. The food has an Indian emphasis. I got the KC Dirty Burger, which is one of the few that are made with beef. It was...interesting. Not a ground beef patty as expected, but more like strips of seasoned fajita meat. It came with a white sauce and plently of red onions. It was okay, but I'm more a fan of traditional burgers. Good thing I upgraded the potato chips to curly fries, which were hot & tasty. A big disappointment was that no fountain drinks are available. I believe that was a first on my quest. I had to settle for a plain old water bottle. Lastly, I observed the dining area to be disheveled and the windows remarkably dirty. [Stop #78 on The Great DFW Burger Quest] read more

Gosh ever since we moved to Dallas, every single person recommended us to try this restaurant. But with gluten intolerance we had to give it time. And finally we got to try a few weeks ago, loved every bit of the menu ever since. We tried just the ice creams one time - pan and kesar pista, One other time we tried the veggie burger, chicken burger, egg pakoda and paneer, delicious! Recently we tried the burgers along with the veggie coins. Absolutely amazing food. Not to forget their unique sauces over the wings, my favorite meal here - malai and tandoori A new hotspot for the weekend enjoyment! read more

The reviews of this place being filthy and poorly maintained is accurate. The dirty floors , sticky tables , disgusting bathrooms and adding more open trash cans to solve overflowing trash cans are the LEAST Disgusting thing I saw. I was standing outside of the bath room and heard a toiled flush than employe walk out of the bathroom. I did not hear a sink be turned on or have the time it would take to wash your hands and door opening. It was flush then door opening right away. These clowns will get someone really sick. Avoid this place at all costs . read more

Highly recommend their chicken and mutton burgers, fries are good too. They have a nice variety of refreshing drinks like masala soda and masala cola - which pair well with the spiced food. We have only gotten take out and the service was quick. Their patio seating seemed like a nice option when dining in good weather. read more

It is a really good place to have some Indian flavored sandwiches, chicken wings or burgers. The portions are generous. The boba tea flavors and milkshakes are full of flavor. It also is outdoor seating. A good place to catch up with friends. read more

I was very exited to visit this restaurant as I have fond memories of the Hyderabad's King and Cardinal and had been a regular visitor during my middle and high school years. So if there a thing like muscle memory for taste I have that for the KC burger. So when I was visiting Frisco,Texas it was my obvious first stop. Due to the COVID-19 situation I ordered pickup-unfortunately for 3 burgers(one vegetarian and 2 chicken)I had to wait for 30 minutes(it was around 9:30pm on a weekday and not many people/orders were there). I felt prices were a bit high for a single burger (7$-veggie,8$-chicken+taxes) Going past the wait i got into my car and dug straight into the vegetarian burger. It did remind me of the Hyderabad's KC burger(75% close)but I felt that they were skimpy on the sauces/dressings which set it back from being the perfect KC burger.Also the chips on the side didn't taste fresh. As I couldn't get this taste anywhere else in any US burger joints this is still the best Indian burger and I'm looking forward to them opening up a branch in Virginia :-) read more

We visited on Jan 1 & they were understaffed I guess, the guy at the counter was sweet but our order of just 2 burgers took more than an hour. What's even worse is that we got hair in one of the burgers. I never usually rate down restaurants but if they are under staffed they better close it out than giving bad food to customers. Not going back again read more

This review is for a take out meal. Online ordering was easy, we did not have any customizations. The veg burgers were good and I liked the samosas too, not too spicy and were still hot when we got home. The salad was not that great...drenched in the dressing and the fried avocado was super bland. They should pack the dressing on the side for to-go orders. Overall quick and resonably priced option! read more

Just opened and they need to get a lot more organized, but K&G has a solid foundation. I had the spicy wings (8pc) which is mostly a dry rub of "Indian spices" (as it was described to me) and they were cooked to perfection! Also ordered curly fries and was shocked at how large the portion size was for only $0.99; easily large enough to split. There is ample seating inside and a patio area with several tables. Not much ambience outside, but the building provides natural shade in the evenings. First impression is 5 stars! I'll definitely return. read more

Went here for the Irani chai and fell in love with the spicy mutton burger. The spicy mutton burger is definitely worth going back for. The chai was pre-made and a little too sweet for my family. We also tried the popcorn chicken. It was meh. Service was very courteous. You order and pay at the counter and they bring your food out to you. They have nice outdoor seating as well! Overall a nice addition to the area. Will definitely be back! read more

We did a curb side pick up for dinner - it was a special occasion for the family, we were celebrating my wife's birthday. All of us loved the burgers - we picked spicy mutton, crazy, double cheese and spicy chicken and added curly fries for a couple of orders. Loved the Indian twist in the filling and made it flavorful. Would recommend taking curly fries which is a upgrade of the order since potato chips is given by default. We also picked a butter chicken flavored wings - that was the weakest dish, still palatable. I would have given an all star rating, if not for the wait of about 10 minutes even though I was assured that by putting arrival time in the comments in the online order, the food would be ready for pick up. Since it was a school night, that wait mattered for us. read more

I got the masala burger and it was really good. Have napkins ready. This went above and beyond for something more unusual to me.

BEWARE-----NOT COMING BACK EVER AGAIN I like supporting local businesses so thought I would give it a try since it was so close to home. We decided to take it to go - since I was not impressed by the seating area - not clean. That should have been my first clue. We ordered the KC dirty burgers - when I asked what was in it, the cashier just answered "it has beef". Great, exactly what I wanted to know. A menu with a description of the items would have been so helpful. We got our orders within 10 mins so not a long wait. Thought the burger tasted alright, thick bun and beef tasted good. Just wish there wasn't so much white sauce in it. Not impressed by the hard curly fries - looks like something I can make at home with a frozen bag of fries. Fast forward a few hours later - I found myself with horrible stomach pain and stuck on the toilet with.... Food poisoning. I'll spare you the details. Sufficient to say, we will not be coming here ever again. read more

GREAT SHAKE! We had the butterscotch shake and it was delish. Tried the mutton burger- and it was very greasy and the spices were not consistent. And there is a very strong disinfectant smell that permeates the place...did not enhance my appetite, but I think the place was clean. read more

I entered and was greeted by a rude employee which later during my visit was the owner / manager. Food was unimpressive and forgettable. There are half a dozen other burger joints in Frisco that you will enjoy immensely more so than King and Crap, I mean Cardinal. The place was dingy and dirty. trash was overflowing in the corner. Instead of emptying the trash the owner / manager just put more trashcans out. I enjoy trying new take on my favorite foods from different parts of the world. Thoroughly disappointed.

What a disappointment. I was so excited to come and sample the Indian-American fusion. It's a shame this place didn't do better than it did. I walked in during lunch and the place was totally empty, which is fine by me. There is a sign outside that requests I wear a mask, so I do. The guy at the counter taking orders is maskless, which seems absurd. I ask him what the Paneer Burger is. He says, "It's a burger with paneer." I attempt to clarify, asking, "Is the paneer in place of the meat or on top of the meat?" He says, "Paneer is not meat." Yes, I explain, I know what paneer is. He says, "Just a normal burger with paneer on it." I attempt to clarify again, "So it's a burger with meat and there is paneer on the meat, yes?" He says yes. Turns out, there is no meat. The paneer burger is spicy crumbled paneer with onion, tomato, and jalapeño on a bun with about half a liter of mayonnaise and what tastes like tikka masala sauce on it. I say "on it", but what I really mean is "drowning in it" (see photos). Messiest damn thing I have ever eaten. It took approximately 47,000 napkins to get through this paneer burger. The taste was mediocre at best. Paneer was soggy. And I get to thinking, what the hell is this place? This isn't actual food, this is just mayonnaise and tikka masala sauce with some veggies floating around a piece of bread. Then I notice the floor, which is sticky and visibly dirty. No one has mopped these floors all week. The windows are lined with dead insects. Everything starts to make sense. I'm questioning why I came here in the first place. A disservice to Indian cuisine and American cuisine, and very likely to be shut down if an inspector ever pops in on a Friday lunch service. I wish I had gotten pav bhaji across town. read more

Neat concept and very Indian-flavor-centric. Delicious and spicy means spicy. :) My BBQ chicken "burger" was basically shredded chicken (kind of like a pulled pork sandwich), and the chicken had been prepared in curry. Either the curry or the BBQ was spicy. Good spicy, but it definitely built and I had a good burn going by the end. I asked for the special mayo on the side and I'm glad I did - it was much spicier. My wife got a cheeseburger and it was great. Not listed as spicy and wasn't spicy. We got the kids some sort of chicken nugget things, which were basically curry-fried chicken pieces. I thought they were tasty, but the kids thought they were too spicy. Heads up if you have white bread kids like ours! Curly fries were great and Cajun seasoned. Yum. Docked a star because everything was disposable. Otherwise: excellent! read more

What an interesting concept - Indian twist on burgers! I ordered the KC Spicy Classic Chicken Burger and it definitely lived up to the name. The chicken was shredded and well seasoned with spices which made it very flavorful and delicious. The food was also well priced. I will definitely return to try the rest of the items on the menu. read more

I ordered three veggie burgers, one without a patty and terrible bread quality. It didn't taste like a veggie burger; instead, sauce dipped bun. Overall It ruined my Friday dinner, and I don't particularly appreciate going there again read more

I really enjoyed the Indian twist on fast food. I got the mutton burger and these fried hard boiled eggs. The burger had plenty of flavor and very juicy. I really liked the strong Indian flavors. The fried items were also very good. The fries were crispy and flavorful. The fried hard boiled eggs came with this creamy cilantro sauce that was the perfect dip for the eggs. They also have lots of drinks and dessert options that I plan on trying on my next visit. read more

I've never given a 2 star review! And maybe I need to give this place another chance. I ordered the popcorn chicken VERY mild and my mouth was on fire! My kid got chocolate ice cream and it barely looked like two 1/2 scoops and took forever since we paid until we got it. My other daughter got a milkshake with a flute cookie and that was cute but with so much whipped cream... will need to request next time, no whipped cream! read more

Not sure if I've ever given this bad of a review. But here goes...The restaurant is filthy. When we walked in, we were the only customers. No one was waiting outside for takeout. 3 ppl were behind the counter. After ordering, one lady came into the dining room & began cleaning. By that time I had sat at the table that was least dirty. Another couple walked in behind us, ordered, & walked around & looked outside for a clean table & did what I did, settled for the least dirty. How do I know? I heard them commenting on it. So it's hard to enjoy the food when, psychologically, you're disgusted about the visible filth. read more

The place is downright filthy as we went day before for dinner. God knows what the hygiene standards will be for food. on top of that, when I told the girl at the front about cleaning our area that was dirty with tissues, and curry, and water, glass beer bottle strewn all over the place, she didn't get a broom or a mop but rather stood down and started picking up stuff with her hand... I asked her if she had a broom / mop to brush it all through and she had no answer.... Just imagine the basics missing....... ! We are never going there again as our health is very important to us. Even the food was super oily and of course no standards of a good business. I warned the person over there to improve the situation as there is no excuse of having the place so dirty in the business hours. That says for itself !!! read more

Love love love the Indian style burgers! Super flavorful my favorite is the KC chicken burger with extra green sauce and my son loves the grilled cheese. Let me tell you about this grilled cheese; it's not your traditional white bread, Kraft singles... it has white cheese, white sauce on white bread, grilled to perfection! So yummy! read more
