    Such a great place to get Indian food. Came in with a party of 3 for our monthly ladies dinner. We were greeted and seated right away, waitstaff were friendly and fast to bring the food and drinks. The decor was really nice and made you feel like you were in another country, the music also added to the ambience of the restaurant. The food was incredible, I'm not big on spice but I nibbled on a little bit of everything even the spicy things. Everything was so delicious- prob the best Indian food I've had in a long time. I would come back again.

    We visited this gem while we were in Philly. Man, I am kicking myself for not trying it earlier! The best Indian food I've tasted since my trip to India! The service was exceptional. The food was exceptional. I can't wait to go back! This is a must try!! Thank you for such an amazing experience!

    Went there for New Year's Eve. Great ambience with Stanley singing. Place steadily filled up, was well decorated, felt lively. Food was good. Service was great. Noteworthy neighborhood place that we would come back to. And recommend to others. Especially for celebrations, occasions.

    So we have had friends talk about this place for a while now. I'm so glad we finally took the time to try it out. We seemed to be the first customers of the day and were soon joined by others. Quiet atmosphere, gentle Indian music in the background, and inspiring wall murals complete the scene. We ordered a smathering of items. Started with fresh squeezed lemonade and Soda Naranga. Really enjoyed the soda. Lemonade was okay. Goat curry, Keena Naan with lamb, Chicken 65, Gobhi Manchurian, and vegetable samosa. All a delight of flavors. Samosa was descent, curry at #3 heat was just spicy enough, Naan, especially when dipped in curry, was very good. My favorite bite was the gobhi manchuruan. We had a lot of food to pack up and I am willing to bet my daughter will really like the chicken 65. Very well flavored bites of chicken.

    NO delivery fee!

    The food is pretty good at Lilly's but the system for ordering is the pits! We are still not going to restaurants so we do delivery a lot. I try to order in a way that benefits the restaurants, but I will have to rethink Lilly's next time. I ordered through Toast and it clearly says that there is no delivery fee (see attached screen shot) but they charged me $5 plus a $.99 fee. When I tried to order through some of the other delivery services at 4pm the "schedule for later" button was grayed out until the next day! In addition, the menu and the pricing were different on every site. I couldn't order plain naan on Toast so I got what I thought was the next best thing - Bhatura - and it was awful. Dry and chewy. Plain naan is available on the other sites so why not Toast?! I placed my order around 3:30 - 4pm and on the GrubHub site I couldn't get a dinner menu and there was nothing but vegetarian options. When I looked later at night the dinner menu was there. Between the menu and pricing discrepancies, the varying delivery fees, and the menu not being available on some sites ordering was so frustrating that I probably won't order from them again. I felt like I was given the runaround at every turn - and the prices were all over the place! Every site was different. I don't need the aggravation and there are other Indian restaurants to choose from.

    Definitely a gem in Jenkintown. Authentic Indian food and they're not afraid to bring the heat if you ask for "Indian spicy."

    Excellent food with a warm and thoughtful staff. Some of the best Indian in the region. And cool murals inside!

    I apologize if the nihari and kahari pictures are mislabeled, the kid who was helping us didn't…read moreknow which was which. I think I got it right, but I'm not certain! Both were delicious (everything was kind of swimming in grease though, I didn't love that). We asked for recommendations, and everything the owner recommended was great (he recommended the peri peri grilled chicken, which was our favorite, and the Lahori fried fish soups). Mango lassis were also good. The rooh-afza tasted like liquefied red hots, so if you like those you'll love this! (I don't like red hots so I didn't). The falafel wasn't great, but we ordered it for my grandma so she'd get something that was completely mild (no heat to it) and that and the hummus and plain rice/naan were the only things that fit the bill for her, so it definitely did its job. We won't be coming back because it's waaaaay too expensive for what you get, but we enjoyed the experience well enough. (Edit to add after reading previous reviews: the kid who was serving us didn't know what to do when we asked for glasses of water as well, so it sounds like that's a common thing here. There really wasn't any kind of service beyond just bringing us our food when it was ready, which we didn't mind but other people might.) Edit again: I'm taking another star off because I found a hair that doesn't belong to anyone in our household in the leftovers, which is grossing me out enough to throw them away.

    Just got takeout from this cute little place and it was delicious!! Chicken biryani was very…read moreflavorful and had a nice heat to it. Looking forward to trying other dishes.
