I was walking in the Reading Terminal and I looked at the Indian food and this nice lady offered me a sample of the Chicken Marsala. I tried it and it sold me in a matter of 5 seconds since it was fresh and it was super flavorful. so I decided to order the platter version for $9.00. The platter contained the chicken with a choice of rice and I selected Basmati since it is my favorite. It came with a side of chickpeas and garlic naan bread. After my first bite I was in heaven. The chicken was tender, moist, and flavorful. The rice was perfect since it absorbed the rice from the chicken. The chickpeas were to die for with a little kick. The naan bread complimented the dish by being crisp and extremely flavorful. I enjoyed using it to spooning up my food. It was a truly enjoyable experience and I would definitely come back here again! read more

Delicious food. Add the spicy green sauce to make it spicier. Friendly owner. Had the chicken tikka masala on rice and bread. Not heavy or creamy which is great! Cooked fresh as well. read more

Best Indian food in town! Quick service, friendly employees, and great customer service. We enjoyed the yellow rice, chicken, and chickpeas. Everything was very flavorful and just the right amount of spiciness. The iced chai and mango lassi were delicious! read more

Located in Reading Terminal which was perfect for lunch while I was stuck in Jury duty. They let you try EVERYTHING which was really awesome because there is so much to choose from. The coconut curry chicken was great. Prices were around $10 a plate. I also ordered a samosa but it was extremely greasy bland. read more

Oh, a Pakistani place! After speaking to the guy for a short time, he easily helps me decide to get a baked chicken samosa. It was so good even my friend, who doesn't normally like samosas, liked it and ate half of it lol read more

I have walked by this place numerous times and have always wanted to try it. I finally had my chance today. What a mistake. The basmati rice was pretty bland. The chicken tika masala tasted like stewed chicken mixed with sauce out of a jar. The garlic naan bead was absolutely pathetic. And to top it off, my lunch came out to $16. Not worth it at all. There are tons of better options at RTM, I suggest you try elsewhere read more

We only grabbed a quick chicken samosa to nosh on while walking around. Even the kids thought it was good

I got an array of items from here including seasoned rice, chicken korma, paalak (spinach), squash subzi, cholay (chickpeas), diced tandoori chicken, a spinach and feta puff, and a samosa puff (puff because it was made with PHILO DOUGH yum), and tandoori chicken wings! My favorites were the tandoori wings and samosa puff. Definitely desi style fusion food. The spinach puff was creative as well, as it had a spicier flavor than a typical spanakopita type of puff. The chicken korma with rice was awesome as well, loved the sweet flavor with chicken and rice. Only thing I would say was that it would be great with a white sauce or yogurt, which I crave as a brown person with my South Asian foods. read more

The absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced in Philadelphia. Staff started taking our order then walked away mid order without saying anything. Came back and we repeated our order 3 more times. We waited and watched the people that came after us receive their order. When we questioned if our order was next, we were met with rude argumentative response. As we walked away (without order) the staff still attempted to argue. Not acceptable customer service on any level. Training is definitely needed at this location. read more

Well I've decided to try this place because my favorite place had a super long line, I got the salmon with the white rice it was good, salmincwell cooked rice was good I gave it a 3 star because they are over priced. read more

Nice little Indian place. The food is pretty authentic. Wish you could mix and match some of those curries. Halal. You can find cheaper lunch options but curry is my comfort food. I'll probably return before my stay is over. read more

Delightful surprise in busy Reading Market. Food is ready and fresh. Delicious tender chicken dishes. Saag paneer one of the best. Added hot nans and mango juice for perfect lunch. My wife had lamb which seemed dry, but very tasty. The happy fellow who served us was very helpful. read more

Palak paneer was very good and Chana masala was good, just wish the chickpeas were a bit softer.

Food is very fresh but is seriously lacking in flavor. Their samosas were quite bad...made with filo dough, only had potato in there and no flavor. The staff is very friendly and their lassi selection is excellent. I really wish Nanee's would improve their food. read more

The food was just ok. I ordered the chicken tiki. It was lacking jn flavor. The naan bread was a little burnt. I would give them another try..order something else, mostly because they were very nice. read more

Gluten Free?? NOT SO MUCH!! My Mom has Celiac and ordered an item which was in a case that was labeled Gluten Free. She, along with who she was with, assumed that all the items in the case were Gluten Free. She ate the meal but then later questioned whether it was Gluten Free because of the taste. When they asked the staff they were told it was not Gluten Free. Anyone who knows anything about Celiac Disease knows how serious eating gluten can be!! If you are Gluten Free or have Celiac do not go to Nanee's!! read more

I think my review may reflect my views about Reading Terminal Market rather than Nanee's. I guess I thought that the terminal market would have the best quality, not average quality. I also expected good prices, which was probably wholly unrealistic. At Nanee's [and other restaurants in the market], the food was good but not the absolute best of the variety. My husband and I shared a korma-based platter, which was good, and we wanted to save room to try other things at the market. The mango lassi was refreshing. Greens and rice sides were good but not special. I'd definitely eat there again, because I love Indian food more than any other kind. I think my best observation is that if you know Indian food, you won't find this the best of the best, but you'll be satisfied and happy there's an Indian food option at the market. If you're trying Indian food for the first time, it will be tame enough for your pallet, but after that, definitely try a restaurant! [in all fairness, we had the korma which was listed as a children's choice, exactly because it is mild! *but I love korma*] read more

Save your self aggravation and indigestion! Don't go to this Indian restaurant .There are so many good places to go to in Reading Terminal market that one doesn't have to put up with the extreme rudeness that I encountered during the first day of Comic Con 2015. I love Indian food and since the line wasn't busy near them (that should have tipped me off) I thought this would be a good choice. Boy was I wrong ! First the staff is down right rude.I ordered my food Chicken tikka masala with rice and chick peas.Odd combo chick peas but ok I'll go with it. They ignored my request for a glass of water after spending $10.00 on a very skimpy amount of food.So I politely reminded them several times and they in turn kept ignoring me.,avoiding eye contact until I demanded they acknowledge my presents.I next got a very snotty reply ,"You can buy a drink of water but you're not just getting one free" What the hell! I spent $10.00 on rice and chick peas a 2 tiny pieces of chicken in a bland curry sauce and you won't give me a goddamn glass of water.This seemed to amuse them and they refused. Now the owner was there and could have stepped in but instead of giving me a paper cup with water has chosen to lose a custumer.Bad business,Bad food and most of all a Bad attitude. read more

Not a value for money place (one in reading terminal ), for 10 dollars for someone who skips rice got only a curry and some salad , while I can get the same chicken for 3 dollars in the on road vendors with better taste :) read more

Ate here for something different for breakfast while in town for a conference. Had the breakfast naan w curried chicken, egg and cheese and would have gladly gone back for seconds! Cardamom lassi was also really nice. Would eat here again for sure. read more

1 Star based on the samosas. They were surprisingly bland. You always expect Indian food to really hit you with flavor and these just didn't. read more

The owners/staff seem to be in total denial that the food lacks flavor. Tikka Masala does not taste like any other I've ever tasted. Missing about 5 ingredients. When I mentioned this to the staff, I was told that no one else was complaining. What? Wish I had the read the reviews before-hand. Wished the owners would read the reviews. read more

I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. My girlfriend and I order a vegetarian and the salmon for lunch. We both have gluten allergies and let me tell you we got sick within 5 minutes. We couldn't finish our lunch as we both saw so much cheap oil on everything the eggplant, the rice, chick peas, and the salmon with a pound of onion and half a cup of oil. I went back to give the guy behind the counter a feedback about why so much oil and zero flavor and he was so rude as he didn't care. The food was bland and overpriced $25 for a vegetarian and a salmon for lunch on a nasty market. I travel a lot in/outside the US and this is a tourist TRAP. We had good luck outside the market and decided to try it one day, not a good choice. Save your self aggravation and indigestion! Don't go to this Indian restaurant .There are so many good places to go to in out side the market. read more

I normally head to Reading Terminal once every two weeks. I've tried many different places, except this one. I always want to walk by and try it. So, the other day I did. Friends and I sat at the counter and ordered. The waitress was really nice and helpful. After we ordered, it took no more than 10 minutes to have everything. I ordered the vegan option, $9.99, which came with rice, two choices of veggies, and naan. The basmati rice honestly was so bland and a little undercooked. The chickpeas on top seemed to save it, though. I also got a side of cabbage, which was actually really tasty. The naan though, was..sad to say the least. It tasted good but I don't think it was worth the $2 upcharge. The place is definetly good for the cost, and these little things could be fixed. Overall, I'd probably go back. read more

I'm not sure what happened here. I go to Philly for summer vacation each year. Before I leave I always go by RTM and get the same thing each time-bowl of chicken korma, white rice and chick peas and a spinach Samosa. This was my first time going on a Sunday. I don't know what happened from last year until today. Perhaps the management is new. Where is the older man that worked the front? I get the same thing each time. There was a young guy there today. He was skimpy on the korma. He said I could get a salad with the meal. I told him I always get chick peas. He said if I wanted chick peas I could sub out the salad for a veggie and it would be $1.99 extra. What?! The place I looked forward to going to every year is no more. Oh, and the naan was a separate cost. When all was said and done I had shelled out about $15 for what was equivalent to a $5 meal at best. Not pleased at all, and the flavor was seriously lacking. read more

I loved their collards and eggplant with a side of naan! absolutely loved it!

I was very happy to find out that Nanee offered a large choice of gluten free options. The vast majority of their dishes are GF so you can't go wrong. I had the chicken tikka and wasn't disappointed. Get their early as their food is prepared fresh daily and they run out. read more

I loved the dishes. Flavorful and subtle. I particularly liked the palak paneer, the samosas. Dahl was delicious. Spices ground fresh. The mango lassi was the best. I've tried some of their pickles: lime pickle, lemon pickle, mango chutney--they taste homemade and wonderful. read more

I just got the worst food poisoning from this place. I had the feeling as soon as i finished the saag paneer that i shouldn't have eaten it. I have traveled to over 10 countries in Asia and have never had a problem and i come to Philadelphia to get food poisoning. Not to be too graphic but I spent the next eight hours throwing up and had to miss work today because i feel like I've been hit by a truck and can barely stand up straight. Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY!!! read more

DO NOT EAT HERE. THE GUY STRAIGHT UP LIED ABOUT THE PRICES. It was our first time so we asked the guy what came with the veggie option, which was on the menu for $7.99 (including yellow/white rice + choice of flat bread/naan). He told us to pick 1 of the rice options, TWO veggies, and 1 bread option. When we were paying, he told us the total was $15. I said "excuse me? the total should be $7.99." He said the naan was an extra $3. So I said okay fine, despite what your menu said about the $7.99 including all of it, we'll just take the flatbread option. Next he said, the total is $11 because we picked TWO veggies, and the second veggie was an extra $3. But No, WE did not pick 2 veggies; HE told us we could pick 2 veggies for the veggie option, and we believed him in good faith that was how the $7.99 veggie option worked. He totally took advantage of our inexperience and charged us extra. Plus, I just read on another person's Yelp review that the veggie option is SUPPOSED to come with 2 veggie options for the price of $7.99!! So this guy straight up LIED to us and charged us an extra $3! Not to mention the food portions were ridiculously measly. And then he told us because we picked yellow rice, it was another extra charge. What a bunch of bullshit!!! The menu doesn't say any of that--He literally MADE UP extra charges on the spot. And throughout this whole thing, he just smirked at us slyly. We should've just left the 5 ounces $12 worth of food there and walked away. What a deceitful man. I still can't believe it. I've never been more angry after ordering food. Never coming back here again. Don't give this deceitful Indian man any more business. Don't order from here. read more
