    Ig: @asianphatty for more reviews! Still so delicious I got a dinner combo #4 of the chicken and it came with 2 meats, rice, naan (I upgraded to garlic naan for an extra $1) , and a dessert thingy. I also got a Mango Lassi which came out to a total of $21.18. Food is so bomb and the mango lassi is tart, not too sweet, and creamy. Will keep coming back :)

    Currently in Riverside tonight and Indian food sounded good. We decided to try out Punjabi Tandoor. We got the Malai Kofta, Chicken Mahkani, Lamb Vindaloo, and Samosas. Malai Kofta - Creamy sauce that had vegetables and potatoes formed into a ball and fried. It was really good! Chicken Mahkani - Very tender and flavorful! Lamb Vindaloo - Sauce was rich & savory w a hint of tang and pleasantly spicy! Sauce texture was like it had finely chopped veggies in it for thickness. Samosas - Very tasty. The green cilantro chutney was very earthy and spicy. Red chutney was sweet and spicy. I mixed both of them for a flavor explosion and it was very scrumptious!! Garlic Naan - Very tasty w pieces of chopped garlic. We enjoyed the food here and definitely coming back if we're in this area.

    Amazing experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Service was fast and friendly, and everything was well organized. Definitely one of the best spots for Indian food highly recommend!

    My fiancé and I were craving Indian food so we decided to try this place out. We placed a pick up order over the phone and they said it would take about 30 minutes. Upon entering, the aroma of delicious spices filled the air. The staff were friendly and gave us our order right away. We ordered the chicken tikka masala, lentils, veggie samosas, garlic naan, and rice. The chicken tikka masala was very flavorful and they did not skimp on the chicken which I liked. The lentils were delicious. Veggie samosas were crispy and had a ton of potato filling on the inside. It had a nice kick to it as well. The garlic naan was so good. It had a lot of garlic on top. Overall, I enjoyed it!

    Great no frills Indian food. Naan came out piping hot and curry spice level is really solid. Big rice portions. One order is probably fine for 2 people.

    Spicy chicken curry, chicken tikka masala with mixed vegetables and garlic naan

    This review is long overdue. I love this place so much. I can't resist stopping here after I get my nails done next-door. It smells so delicious. They have great lunch specials too. I particularly like the chicken tikka masala and spicy chicken curry with mixed vegetables and garlic naan. Everyone here is really friendly and they remember me. It's super authentic. I just can't get enough. And best of all it is blissfully consistent. I never have to wonder if it's going to be good. If you are looking for delicious northern Indian cuisine or even want to try something new full of flavor I'd highly recommend you stop by.

    How much is the lunch buffet?

    Lunch combo no buffet

    Is the chicken and beef hand slaughtered halal meat?

    We don’t have beef . But we have lamb halal. Chicken not halal

    So I noticed they're not on Eat24 anymore and it doesn't work when I try and order takeout from the app so how do you order takeout now, by phone?

    Order on Grubhub . Also on doordash

    My first time trying Bangladeshi food. Friendly and helpful owner...he answered my questions about…read morethe food and even threw a little something extra sample of one of the desserts. I tried the breakfast combo with the paratha/roti, omelette, aloo, chana, and tea. A little spicy for me (but I'm rather soft when it comes to spiciness), but I really enjoyed the corn, potatoes, and roti (especially). And the tea was fine without sugar. I will def return when I am in the area! I thought that I had taken a photo, but apparently I didn't.

Everything came out fresh and in a reasonable amount of time. The burgers were incredibly juicy, the fries were perfectly crispy, and the seasoning they put on them is seriously delicious. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their food. The restaurant itself is clean, well-kept, and the bathrooms were spotless, which is always appreciated. Customer service was excellent as well--everyone was friendly, respectful, and welcoming. What stood out to me most was how comfortable they made us feel as a family. I was there with my husband and two young kids, and at no point did the staff make us feel like the normal kid noise or playing around was a bother. That means a lot to parents. The place is on the smaller side, but it's thoughtfully put together, clean, and inviting. Great food, great service, and a family-friendly atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

We found this place online and decided to fuel our bellies here. Upon entering there are seats on both sides of the restaurant with the serving area and cashier in the middle. We decided to dine-in and they helped us with ordering. I ordered the Dinner Special Thali ($15.99) which comes with 2 entrees, daal, rice, naan, mango lassi, samosa or kheer. I was allowed to choose 3 entrees of my choice from the select options they had in their serving area (not from all the entrees they have on their menu). I like options and variety, so from their limited entrees I chose mushroom saag (spinach based), chicken tikka, and their paneer tikka. I'm glad I got to taste different options but I like the chicken the best. I also chose the kheer and got the mango lassi as my drink. My boyfriend ordered the butter chicken ($14.99), basmati rice ($3.99), and the cheese naan which we asked if they can add garlic and they kindly did ($4.99). Everything was delicious and came out in a timely manner. On the tv's they were playing Indian music and their music videos, which were entertaining to watch. ---- Overall: the price point and tasty food are reasons we'd be stopping by if we're ever in the area again or driving back to SD, definitely check this place out if you want some yummy Indian food in Riverside at a reasonable price!

    My first introduction to a dosa was many years ago in NW Chicago when a college buddy took me to a…read morevegetarian Indian restaurant. I was really impressed by the scrolled 'crepe' stuffed with aloo (potatoes) and spices, and the array of dipping sauces and chutney. It was a really long time before I had another dosa at Seven Rivers in Riverside. A few years later and I got wind of Dosalicious in Corona off McKinley and the 91 Freeway. It's in a shopping center towards the back section, but once you find it, parking isn't an issue. Inside it's open and larger than you think, with some depth and extended seating. Basically, order at the counter and pay later, or whatever. The non-dosa entrées look really good in pictures, so I'm eager to try more but dosas are their namesake, so I got one that resembles my first experience in Chicago. The selection of dosas was remarkable though, so next time I should bring a friend or two to have a wider sampling. It didn't take long to arrive and while not scrolled, it was presented like a folded pocket, which fit the plate and facilitated tearing and dipping. Yes, finger food. Inside the potatoes seemed closer to mashed potatoes but flavor wise it was similar to past similar dishes. I enjoyed the two provided sauces a lot, and ultimately, it sat very light and I wasn't full, but not immediately hungry afterwards, either. Down the road I'll expand my horizons through a few visits targeting more menu choices. Very good overall. Yes, plastic silverware and disposable paper plates are what you get here, but that's not a deal breaker for me. Besides, have you ever worked in a restaurant and had to wash dishes in the back? It's hot and nasty work, I'm sure this is behind that calculus.
