    Delicious and authentic Indian food spot. I normally take it to go but we decided to eat inside. We were greeted and sat immediately by a friendly waiter. We got the lollipop chicken, we both haven't had it before and it was great. It came with a chili sauce that my boyfriend loved but I enjoyed it more plain. He got the biryani HOT and was crying because it was spicy and so fresh. He was full but managed to eat almost all of it because he didn't want to waste it. He was very impressed! I got my usual butter chicken spicy with naan. I asked for mint chutney to pour on my rice since it's my fav. This will be my forever go to place and meal when I'm in the mood for Indian food!

    One of the few places open during Thanksgiving day! So that was a plus in my book! + Biryani portion is fairly large! And packed with spice including mint. One of the tastier biryani I've had. I wish the curry and yogurt that came with it were larger as it's a lot of biryani... + Naan and chicken masala were up to snuff. + Friendly staff - The waiter who brought the food to us needs to be a little more thoughtful when holding the dishes as I could see his fingers slightly touching the food, fortunately we didn't get sick. If you do make it up this far north in Austin, definitely give them a shot

    That first bite of Kashmiri naan was like stumbling upon a secret spice route in my own neighborhood - jewels of pistachio and apricot embedded in pillowy dough, each chew releasing whispers of cardamom and saffron. We devoured it so fast, the waiter blinked twice at our empty basket before bringing a second round "for protection." Why This Place Shines: Naan Royalty - Their version puts other bread baskets to shame (ask for the "dirty" cut - extra charred edges) Hospitality Alchemy - Staff who remember how you like your chai by the second visit Controlled Chaos - The tandoor's fiery maw visible from every table, chefs slinging dough like circus performers

    It was time to introduce my youngest grandson to Indian Food. I felt he would get the best experience at Salt N Pepper -a short drive to Cedar Park and we were there! The huge menu is easily seen above the counter however since we were dining in we were advised we could simply take a seat and use the digital app to obtain the menu. We took a comfortable booth and a server came over to offer assistance. She also brought us complimentary bottled waters. I asked her to make some recommendations to my grandson -as to some of the more common foods, he may want to try. She was very nice and very helpful. I asked her for time to make decisions and she said she would gladly come back to take our order. (You can also order right through that digital menu.) I did ask her to return, which she did after giving us a few minutes to make decisions. I think Indian food is designed to share so that is exactly what we decided to do. We both just wished there were more of us so that we could've opted for many dishes, as it was very hard to choose. My grandson wanted to try a curry so he requested the family, friendly, chicken curry, we also ordered samosas. What's your filmed with aromatics along with peas and potato encased in a crunchy delicious pastry. I ordered a Dosa after discussing it with our server, she explained it as a large round light pastry and you could get a filling inside which we chose one of the vegetarian ones that she mentioned. We didn't need any naan ----but had to order it because even if we needed to take it home, I knew it would be delicious. Our Samosas arrived and hot, with dipping sauces, accompanying them one a milder green sauce, and the other a savory orange sauce and was addictive and built heat on the back of your tongue. Next came the bowl of chicken curry with a nice bowl of rice that accompanied it. Our butter naan and garlic naan also arrived. On the third trip back to us came the dosa. Oh my goodness -I was shocked although she had described it is a large & round- I had no idea how big it was actually going to be!!! It was rolled up like a crepe , with a large mound of vegetarian deliciousness in the middle. It was huge! The chicken curry was mild as ordered, but still held spices that made it very flavorful. The chicken was moist and delicious. I don't think my grandson had ever seen long grain rice, and he asked about it. After tasting it, he agreed that it was very flavorful and perfect for the curry. We both begin to tear off pieces of the Dosa. I wasn't really sure how to eat it, but we worked our way through a very large portion of it!!! It was really good and it came with three different dipping sauces one that was ginger one that was garlicky and one that was lentil forward. That one was definitely my favorite and my grandson enjoyed all three! I discussed the dosa a little bit further with our server, and she advised that it's quite often a breakfast item. I could easily imagine that. We ended up with To Go containers of the curry and rice and a portion of the Dosa as well. My grandson declared that he definitely enjoyed his first taste of Indian food and would like to return so it was a very successful venture!!!!

They were out of baba ghanouj, which was a bummer, but I'll be back to try it. There are a couple of picnic tables, shade from a big tree, good to go.

Give it a try!

    I had a very concerning food safety experience here…read more My order had a gray/brown muddy, cement-like substance stuck to the lettuce and mixed into the food. I took clear photos because it looked like a foreign particle or possible contamination. I brought it back and spoke with the person at the counter, who said he was the manager. Instead of checking the food, investigating what it was, or showing real concern, he told me it was probably from the grocery supplier and that all he could do was give me a refund or replace the food. I asked if I could speak with someone else or get any kind of follow-up on what actually happened, but he said there was nobody else to talk to and that was the only solution. The tone felt dismissive and rude, and there was no apology or reassurance that the issue would be looked into properly. I did receive a refund, but the way the situation was handled was not acceptable for something that looked like a possible food safety issue. I'm seriously considering filing a food safety complaint because customers should not have to push this hard just to have a contamination concern taken seriously.

The customer service is always amazing across all the employees, but especially the nice older guy. I have ordered their lamb gyros, which are always on point with huge servings. One of the few meals I actually like uncooked tomatoes in. The tzatziki sauce is so perky, it compliments the seasoning of the extremely flavorful and tender lamb perfectly. The Gyro Plate was one of the first "bigger" meals that I got. It tasted heavenly and was worth the extra price from the gyro wrap. It was my first experience with their hummus, which is some of the best I've ever had. I brought some home to my family because they sell tubs of hummus to go (for a similar price to what you could get at HEB, actually, and much better) and they ate it all within minutes. This has been a regular thing too. During lent I would order a lentil soup, pita, and falafel side that totaled at just under $6. This is an incredible price for how good it is. The falafels are genuinely the best falafels I have ever tried, crispy (but not hard) on the outside, and fluffy (not soggy) on the inside. Flavor was amazing. Just last week I ordered a lamb kebab plate. Folks, be prepared if you order this. This meal is HUGE. The lamb was heavenly, and I was really happy that they grilled the kebabs with some onions and peppers, really added flavor. The kebabs are made to order, so they're always fresh. Its worth the wait fellas. Come back and give this one a try if you're not rushed. Can I also mention they gave me a free soda on this one? What a nice restaurant! They're always quick except for kebabs (but give 'em the grace because its fresh cooking). 10/10 restaurant, give it a shot!

    A Fantastic Introduction to Mediterranean Food!…read more I recently visited Levant Halal Restaurant and brought my parents, who are visiting from India. It was their very first time trying Mediterranean food, and they absolutely loved it! We started with two different types of hummus served with pita. The hummus was incredibly flavorful, and the pita was exceptionally fresh. We also ordered the falafel, which was perfectly prepared and delicious. For the main course, we shared the Chicken Shish Taouk with sides of beet salsa and Lebanese potatoes--everything was cooked beautifully and tasted amazing. Honestly, the highlight of the meal for us was the drinks. The mint juice and beet juice were so refreshing and easily the best part! We finished our meal with baklava and basbousa for dessert, and both were fresh, sweet, and incredibly tasty. Beyond the fantastic food, the ambiance is very neat and clean, and the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Levant Halal, especially if you are looking for a great place to introduce family to Mediterranean cuisine!

However, I'll think about coming here again because I didn't feel a good vibe with the service. We had to go look for someone to show us the table even though the place was empty for early lunch. Then, to get drinks or even the order was a problem. It took so much longer than usual. Our waitress was rude, and seemed bothered that we showed up. Then someone else came as the waitress and she was preoccupied with other tables and barely checked on us. A regular lunch which would've been one hour became almost two because of the lack of service. My friend had to stand and look for someone to give us a box to take out the good we couldn't eat because it was getting late and also to get the check because No one came in to check on us at all. It was almost like pulling teeth to get a regular service let alone good service. Again, the food was really good, and that alone was the only positive.
