The portions are huge, everything is packed with flavor, and the quality stands out compared to your typical food truck. It is very no-frills, but that is part of the appeal. You are leaving full and satisfied every time. If you are torn on where to go and want something casual, this is an easy choice.

Cuisine: 7 Service: 6…read moreDecor: 5 Value: 8 Overall: 7 With all the delicious options for food in Astoria, I am glad to see Duzan still succeeding after all these years. The food has always been freshly prepared, in large portions, and cooked quite well. I'm thankful that has not changed much. On my most recent visit, we got a Mix Grilled and Vegetarian Plate to share between four people. There was so much food that we did not have dessert next door as originally planned. Prices are higher nowadays, but you are receiving great value for what you pay. Both chicken shawarma and the beef kufta from the Mix Grilled tasted great, especially with the provided zesty white sauce. I also added hot sauce to mine, which made it more satisfying. The chicken kebab was not bad, it had a nice char, but slightly dry. All of the accompanying humus (a bit salty), salad, rice, and garlic pita were excellent too. For the Vegetarian Plate, though good, I would like the falafels to be fluffier. The best things I enjoyed on the plate was the fried eggplants and baba ghanosh. It also comes with cous cous, which was good. Fresh middle eastern cuisine, made with quality ingredients and care, this restaurant may not be my first choice in Astoria because it's not as sexy as some of the other offerings, but I'm glad that they are still around when I just want a quality meal at a reasonable price.

Even with the crowd, the atmosphere was comfortable, and they had the game on, which made it a fun place to hang out. I ordered the chicken with mushrooms and a lime mojito. The chicken with mushrooms was a 10/10 absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The passionfruit lime mojito was too strong. The service was also great. Our waitress was kind, patient, and polite throughout our visit. Since my friends and I don't speak Spanish, we really appreciated how understanding she was while taking our order, especially since it seemed Spanish was her primary language. Overall, I had a great experience. The food, service, and atmosphere were all excellent, and I'd definitely come back.

We happened to be dining there during a World Cup game so there was a TV on in the back (not sure if that's their usual setup). I ordered the chicken tandoori (bone-in), my SO got the chicken tikka masala, and we shared a garlic naan. I got a masala chai to drink and my SO just stuck to water. We did not have to wait too long for the food. My chicken tandoori came out on a sizzling plate with a side of rice. The chicken was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. I ate the slices of onion on the sizzling plate with the chicken and rice. The garlic naan was nice and hot, crisp on the outside, studded with plenty of garlic, and soft and chewy on the inside. It was good for sopping up the chicken tikka masala sauce. My SO felt that my bone-in chicken tasted better than the chicken that came with the tikka masala, so he would consider ordering one of the other bone-in options next time (butter chicken (bone-in) or chef's special chicken (bone-in) biryani). Service was attentive. The servers refilled our water several times and checked on how we liked our dishes. We didn't have dessert this time, but we might next time we come because there will definitely be a next time.

I have only purchased take out, so I cannot comment about the experience of eating in. Inside the restaurant the lighting is a dark. I think that is just the ambiance they are going for because it has always been like that. The murals on the walls are incredible. My favorite is the elephant with other animals in the front. I think the restaurant does more take out business then eat in. I see a lot of people picking up their food same as me. But maybe I am not visiting during busy hours. The food is consistent.

The Malabar chicken was calling my name because of the black pepper, and OMG it did not disappoint!!! It was SO tasty!! It's a dry chicken dish instead of the usual curry/gravy. Super flavorful, peppery, crispy, and not oily or heavy at all! It wasn't particularly spicy to me either, but layered with different aromatics, a complete flavor explosion! I was actually a little confused because I saw the Malabar chicken on Seamless but couldn't find it on ChowNow/Toast, so I wasn't even sure if it was available. I'm SO glad I got it and really hope they keep it on the menu because I would 100% order it again! I also tried the dal with green mango and the tamarind rice from the South Indian menu, and both were delicious. The tamarind rice especially has so many different flavors going on and is so good! If you like bold, layered Indian flavors and want to venture beyond the usual butter chicken-type dishes, TRY THE SOUTH INDIAN MENU!
