    Chicken Jalfrezi
    Jeff N.

    Great food here. The chef was able to make chicken jalfrezi (not on menu) for me and it turned out superb. Their butter chicken is also great. Their naan bread is fantastic and we kept finding ourselves ordering more throughout the meal. The service has been hit or miss depending on staffing. This last time there were only two servers and took a while to get refills and entered came out at different times. The restaurant itself has a lot of paintings and pictures of India that add to the experience. Dim lighting and solid place for Indian food dinner.

    The service here was great, and there was no weight. Their garlic naan was a nice size and had a slightly sweet glaze on it. I had the korma chicken and got spice level 3. The next time, I'll get spice level 4. They gave complimentary soup too which was really sweet of them. I think overall the food was a bit too salty for me, but everything was decent and flavored really well.

    This is a new-ish place that we happen to stumble upon, and we are so glad we did. Food was excellent, (the naan bigger than your forearm!), ambiance was nice, and service was impeccable. The owner Shilu also came to check on us and tell us a bit about the traditions and the traditional foods from Nepal. Space and decor was well thought out, but the food was the stunner. Everything was sooo good. And I'm not super familiar with this style of food and everyone took the time to explain and help us choose amazing dishes.

    I decided to stop in and try a couple of items during happy hour. I started with the pakora, which was solid flavorful and nicely seasoned. Next, I tried the tandoori wings, and unfortunately, they missed the mark. The wings were cold and didn't appear to be cooked through, making them a bit chewy and unappealing. That said, the place has potential. The atmosphere was really nice, and the flavors in the pakora showed promise. I'll give it another try in the future and sample some other dishes. The service was good...They did reheat or make the wings, which I appreciated.

    The food is really good over here and their service is excellent. We tried their garlic naan, paneer appetizer, tilapia fish curry, and Kashmiri old-fashioned.. everything is really delicious and flavorful.

    Very casual dinner experience on a weekday night! They remodeled the place from the old smash burger and they did a fantastic job! The apps, naan, and entrees were very large so consider sharing while selecting your plates for the night! For those of you who love spicy foods make sure you tell them to max it out their spice levels are kind of underwhelming. Remember it's a natural spicy taste not like a trying to kill you spicy flavor. We got the buffalo dumpling platter which was delicious most definitely easy and worth to share with the table. Then we tried three different curries! We got the Saffron chicken curry (my favorite), Korma Lamb Curry, and the Saag Lamb Curry. The Saffron chicken curry came out really fancy! Chicken rolled in an egg then covered in the curry it had a nice creamy texture and taste to it. The Korma Lamb was more on the creamier curries as well! The Saag lamb curry had a lot of spicies in it and it created a different type of texture to it than the other two. All three tasted delicious so I highly recommend bringing a group of friends and sharing entrees with everyone! Most definitely try all the different naans they have! Their mango lassi was a very refreshing drink that I would Highly recommend! Service was quick and they were very nice! We had so many questions I felt kind of bad asking so many questions about their about their menu. It was our first time trying Nepali food so we were really curious! Please check them out and go out of your way to try something new that they are bringing to Arlington! Thank you so much Saffron Kitchen for sharing your culture with Arlington! We are glad to have you here!

    love Indian food & wanted to try out a new place so i stumbled upon this gem. The place is neat, it has a very modern look to it, nice ambience. The waitress that attended us was super super attentive and sweet! Honestly would return just for the service alone! They also provide a complimentary soup & salad. I would say my top 3 dishes were the vegetable samosas, the korma lamb, and the garlic cilantro naan! (honorable mention: gulab juman) it's definitely worth stopping by!

Taipo is a little speakeasy restaurant behind a hidden entrance and it's a fun vibe, especially for date night. We stopped in one evening and Rasham was bartending while Mia was shadowing on her first day but her actions let us know she's an industry pro - which she was. They both gave great recommendations for food and drinks. We got Nepali Reaper Momos, Sichuan momos, chicken chow mein, mango habanero tofu, an old fashion and a strawberry margarita. Everything was flavorful, but my favorites were the Nepali-style fries, the sichuan momos, and the chicken chow mein. The reaper momos were good but they were pretty spicy (coming from people who ordered most of the spicy things on the menu haha). The interior was ornate and beautiful but again, the service is what couldn't be beat. Rasham went above and beyond to provide an experience for us showering us with bubbles for a nice photo and adding some flare and glitter to my strawberry margarita. Mia was knowledgeable of their menu and overall nice to talk to while we sat and ate at the bar. Definitely recommend this place and can't wait to come back soon!

My daughter lost her first tooth at that pub, such good memories of years past. There are still Guinness signs hanging behind the bar. Seeing those old signs brought a single tear to my eye. One door closes and another opens. The restaurant that now calls the old pub their new home is great! All is good with the new place, you might even say great. The interior is not that of a pub anymore. It has been completely redone and the dining room is quite nice. I wouldn't call it a quiet cozy little romantic restaurant, but it could be if that's what you need. I would be willing to take my kiddos to the new restaurant, as long as the six-year-old boy is acting like a human on the day we decide to go. There is a full bar too. I feel that anyone can stop in for any occasion a fit right in. I don't remember the names of the dishes that my wife and I had for dinner but the food was very good. We kept it simple and we both had chicken dishes. If you want to step out and explore culinary culture they offer many appealing options. The food was fresh and light. The spices that they use are aromatic and flavorful. I am guessing that there is a strong Nepali influence. The beauty of the restaurant scene in Arlington is that there is so many different authentic cuisines from very specific regions. If you wanna have Indian food in Arlington you have to consider what kind of Indian food you want. If you go to downtown Fort Worth an Indian restaurant is an Indian restaurant. This little restaurant is a good representation of what Arlington restaurants have to offer. We will go back, soon.

I've had their momos with Akbare chili (that Nepalese fire pepper), and when you tell them to crank the heat, they actually do it. Not fake spicy--this is the real deal. Their butter curry momos are also fantastic. Rich, flavorful, and perfect balance with the heat if you go all the way up on spice. Pro tip: order a side of rice. That sauce is too good to waste, and you'll want something to soak it up. Momo Bros is absolutely where it's at.

    More Momos, please! Lol!…read more This was my second time here, and it was even more delish than the first time. I picked up the following momos: chicken butter tikka; Akbare porken; veg chili; and veg butter tikka. I also bought an order of potato chili. Everything was packed with flavor, pungent, and spicy. The potato chili is now made with French fries, as opposed to chopped potatoes. I couldn't even ding them a star for that because the sauce and spices on the fries were amazing. I'm not eating meat right now, so I love that they have lots of vegetarian options. This spot is pickup only since it's inside the "Cowboy 11," a convenience store. I've always been too busy smelling the yummy food to pay much attention to the store. Oh, and I guess if you don't mind sitting on a small stool, technically, you could eat your food in there. There were 2 young me working there today. They were friendly, so service is great. Dumplings (momo) are delicious and filling here. I've also had the chapote and pani puri, and I highly recommend that as well. You can easily order online via zing. As soon as you see that Cowboy 11 sign, you're in the right place for good food.
