    Online order payment

    I would give zero stars if I could. I had an absolutely terrible experience with this establishment and their nonexistent customer service. ​On 12/12, I placed an order directly through their website. The transaction went through successfully, and my card was charged immediately. However, when I arrived at the restaurant to pick up my food, the doors were locked. There was a sign stating they were "closed for maintenance," yet their online ordering system was still active and taking people's money. I have called on three separate occasions to request a refund. Each time, I get the same response, they take my name and number and promise to call me back within the hour. I have yet to receive a single return call. It is clear there is no professional management in place, the place seems to be run entirely by students who have no authority or desire to resolve issues.I am now forced to go through the hassle of disputing the charge with my credit card provider just to get my money back for food I never received. To top it off, I've found that thr "maintenance" was actually due to serious health code violations.Eat your own risk. This place is unprofessional, unreliable, and potentially unsafe.

    LAMB DUM BIRYANI (bottom) CHICKEN DUM BIRYANI (top)

    The lamb dum biryani here is my absolute favorite. Super flavorful and the lamb is moist and tasty! I think about it all the time. The chicken dum biryani is also pretty good, but we got boneless so it was a bit on the drier side. Both biryanis come with two sauces on the side. Even at a level mild, the spice is deliciously noticeable. I've also tried the chettinad fish curry and both the plain and garlic naans. Everything tastes so good and I find myself craving it long after I've finished. Drinking water is given as sealed bottled water. Service is friendly and each time I've went there's been plenty of seating. The parking lot spaces are a bit tight and can get a bit crowded as it shares a smaller parking lot with many other businesses. Can't wait to come back again!

    Saturday dinner service seemed not too bad and there were many open tables. Started off with Punjabi samosas and a sweet tangy dipping sauce- potato stuffing not too spicy heat wise , flaky and still warm when served. Saag paneer was very delicious, with good depth of flavor without heat, and generous amounts of cubed farmers cheese, served with plain basmati rice. I got the lamb dum biryani dish, which came out really piping hot, with cubes boneless braised lamb- no gaminess at all. This dish was very spiced and am glad it had accompanying yogurt sauce to cool it down. They had run out of mango lassi so I tried a Bangalore style drink made with Nannari Sharbat: an Indian sarsaparilla type herb syrup with lots of citrus flavor - I felt it was overly sweet but the waiters supplied me with a couple of glasses of ice on request. The servings are meant for two or more people so I took home a lot of leftovers. I wish more places offered a sampler type of dish for single diners like me! Although it was slow, I did notice that some tables took a long time to be cleared and my own table had no napkins, but I just helped myself to the ones at the next table. Clean and quiet, just the right amount of lighting. Card payment at the table by card readers . Tips requested to be paid in cash.

    My husband's boss caters parties from here so i thought id check out what's so magical about this place. It's much nicer than most Indian joints. They just added punjabi samosa to the menu, had to try it because biryani is not part of my palette. Its beautifully presented on a bed of garnish consisting of cabbage, carrots, and cilantro. The garam masala overpowers the rest of the spices but honestly its not too bad. The staff is attentive, provide bottled water and serve with gloves on. In terms of the restroom, it's the nicest one ive seen and is pretty clean. My only wish is for them to add background music to lessen the sound of clanking dishes.

    Chicken Dum Biryani
    Amelia M.

    If you're a fan of biryani, make sure to come here and get their goat and chicken dum Biryani! Damn! It's good!!! I got it packed and seriously I can't say no for it! The meat chunks were awesome and it's in the rite amount! The spices are so good and rich but not over, it's tend to be spicy but it's Biryani, a little kick of spicy ness should be there! Ohhh, if you come here ask for more raita, it's so good too!

    One of Curry Lounge's specialties, the Amritsari Kulcha with Chole is a popular North Indian dish…read more Often consumed for breakfast, Amritsari Kulcha is a stuffed unleavened flatbread, traditionally cooked in a tandoor oven. It consists of spiced mashed potatoes, paneer, yogurt, mixed vegetables & onions. Topped with a slathering of butter or ghee. Never served by itself, Amritsari Kulcha is paired with Chole (chickpea curry). For dipping, raita (yogurt) & tamarind chutney complete the meal. I've had Amritsari Kulcha at many establishments in Little India, and Curry Lounge does it the best! An order is large and a generous amount of food, that'll keep you full for the rest of the day. Regarding the remodel, the restaurant is now more spacious and accommodating for more guests. The murals on the walls & decorations add to the appeal. I've been a regular at Curry Lounge, since they opened, and will continue to be so. Highly recommend!

    Man, I really had high hopes for this place. We ordered the chicken tikka masala, butter chicken,…read moresaag aloo, garlic naan, white rice, and samosas to start. I'll start with the positives -- the samosas were actually really good. Great flavor, crispy texture, and the sauces they came with were excellent. Service was also great, and our server was very friendly and attentive. Now for the disappointing part. The garlic naan was super doughy and almost cake-like, which was not enjoyable at all. The butter chicken was overwhelmingly sweet to the point where it honestly tasted more like dessert than curry. The tikka masala was better, but it seriously lacked salt and flavor depth. The saag aloo was creamy, but overall pretty bland and forgettable. The biggest disappointment was the amount of chicken in both dishes. We were left with bowls full of sauce and barely any meat. It honestly felt like we paid for soup with a few pieces of chicken thrown in. We left feeling pretty ripped off, especially for the price. Maybe it was just an off night since they were busy, but based on this experience, we won't be coming back.

This was such a great spontaneous discovery. They have a small parking lot in the front where we parked, but then we saw later on that they also have additional parking in the back if you don' see spots in the front. Upon entering the staff was welcoming. The gave us a few tables to choose from that were cleaned and appropriate for 2 people. I just want to say service was impeccable our whole time there. Everyone on their team took turns checking on us, making sure our waters were refilled, and that we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. So nice!! As we explored the menu, we saw the combination dinners that allowed us to get more variety, which we love. We both picked a different combo so we could share and try more things. My boyfriend enjoys tandoori so he went with the Mix Tandoori Grill ($26.95) that comes with an assortment of Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Seekh Kabab, Chicken Tikka, Fish Tikka served in a sizzling platter on a bed of onions with naan, rice, and gulab jamun. So much food! I picked the India Special ($24.95) which comes with chicken tikka, the choice of lamb or chicken curry which I opted for the chicken, veg, korma, raita, rice, naan, and gulab jamun. What a FEAST!! For the naan I asked for the garlic naan and it was INCREDIBLE. Wow! Might be THEE best Indian food I have ever enjoyed. Between the two of our orders I felt like I had the variety I have when I go eat at Indian buffets. My boyfriend loved the tandooris platter. All of the proteins were cooked perfectly. I assume they were prepped separately to get to the right cooking temp. So funny because my boyfriend was eating the rice while I was indulging in the naan. Dipping the naan in the curry and the korma. Nom Nom Nom! So fun and so delicious. My boyfriend was even saying this is one of the best meals he had in a while. I was so full when the gulab jamun dessert came out at the end but it was so delicious I still ate all of it. Without a doubt the best execution of this dessert I have ever had. We will definitely be back when we find ourselves craving Indian food.

The butter chicken is my favorite, I know it's the most basic b Indian food but everything I've tried has been awesome. Sangeetha's cooking has made me ok with trying some vegetarian food when I thought I'd never like any non meat-centric dish. Swing by, try something new or enjoy something old. Relevant - it's not super spicy, but that's ok to me, it's more accessible to people that might be turned off by excessive spice - I have some scorpion pepper powder that I add to bring the heat, and it doesn't hurt the flavor that I've come to love. They're not open Mondays, but hey - she deserves time off! A suggestion if I may - grab an extra bowl of butter chicken alongside whatever else you get, and throw a fried egg or two on top the next morning for breakfast. DOES NOT HAVE BANANAS! As a professional simian that is of note, but not a negative ;) There are random snacks I've never seen before, I've tried a few and have been happy with what I've sampled. The bottles of mango lassi are super tasty and for me, it helps my heartburn.

I probably will not be returning, but it wasn't bad. I think non-south Asians would really like it. Edit: I was going to delete my review, but I got a private message from the owner with a ton of attitude, asking me to take this down, but I don't feel like that's ethical. I don't think three stars is bad. So just to restate. The food is not bad. But I'm not going to take this review down because I don't feel like it's appropriate for the owner to message you privately with an attitude and try to strong-arm you into taking down the review. I have left plenty of reviews about restaurants in Little India, and not once as anybody messaged me with the tone that you have used with me. So I'm leaving it up. Live and learn. Edit: I got a notification that the owner continued to add to her comment, so to answer her questions, I don't remember what I got because it was several months ago, but I remember that it was just okay. It wasn't bad but your approach to dealing with your customers is. I don't think that Yelp has the option of messaging people so you can come at them with a shitty attitude and strong-arm them into trying to change their review. You're honestly just making yourself look worse.
