    Lamb Vindaloo
    Stephanie H.

    Let me just say this is going to be my new spot. The feed is not your typical Indian food. There is a modern twist on it. Like the butter chicken sandwich was my favorite. This is a fast casual restaurant with a few tables inside to dine or you can take to go. The owner Rana is so nice and said they have only been open a year coming on. This is a spot you have to check out for fast, good Indian food.

    It's exactly as I expected. It's kinda like Panda Express but Indian food. It's was all tasty and great pricing. I think the portions were generous. Great for take out. Rating is isn't exactly warm and cozy, but similar to a Panda Express. It works just not a restaurant vibe. If you want a sit down experience, go to their parent restaurant, I think it's called Taj Mahal. The guy behind the counter was helpful and friendly. I did sit and read there, at a counter they have facing the outside. I'll go back again.

    I had driven past this place a few times and told my husband we should check it out. We went on a weekday evening and were the only ones there the entire time we spent there. The food is all prepared and you just order it at the counter and take it to a table. There are some items always on the menu and a few that they rotate. The gal behind the counter was friendly and helpful when answering our questions. There was a slight language barrier, but not too bad. We chose our meals and sat down. The portions are generous! We each had enough leftover for another meal. I had the butter chicken and it was just okay. It wasn't very flavorful. My husband had the goat saag and said it was pretty good, but very greasy. I like samosas but I did not like the one we had there. We also ordered garlic naan and there was no flavor at all. All of the food was warm and should have been hot. There are so many good Indian restaurants in the area, so I don't think we'll be going back. A few people I know said they liked it, so maybe you'll want to go there!

    Veg butter chicken combo, basmati rice and naan

    This is a handy concept - compact menu with several remix (fusion) options, but the main draw for us was the combo meal. It's one or two entrees, rice (or vegetable pulao for $1 more), and naan. There is always butter chicken, and then about 5 other options that rotate weekly - so you don't have to worry about getting bored. The wife got the smaller combo meal, and I went with the two entree option. Entrees were all mild, which is good for someone like me that like Indian flavor but not necessarily the heat. Butter chicken was pretty standard, except that I would have preferred larger pieces of chicken vs. the more sliver-like pieces they served. My other entree was a lamb choice. I don't remember the name, but I liked it quite a bit. Had a good mix of bright flavors. The wife went with vegetarian butter chicken. And I have to say that it was better than the regular option. Pieces were larger, and had a nice, meaty texture. The basmati rice was pretty good, again standard. My vegetable pulao was a nice improvement for $1 more - think vegetable biryani. The combo also comes with 4 pieces of naan, pretty generous. If you're a garlic lover, you can get garlic naan for $1 more. I do like garlic, but sometimes garlic naan is soooo garlicky that I can't enjoy it - so I passed. The combo sizes are very generous. They were really heavy in the takeout bag. The wife could only eat (less than) half of hers. Pro tip: Order the two entree combo for only $3 more ($15 vs $12) and split it with someone. The two individual entrees are each about 2/3 the size of the smaller combo, and the rice is probably 1 2/3 as much as the smaller combo. A $3 chai was also a good deal. Nice & hot, tasted fresh-brewed. It comes unsweetened, which is how the wife likes it. I like mine sweetened, and the worker tells you it's unsweetened so that you can grab a sweetener packet if desired. We didn't try any of the remix options (sandwich, salad, nachos, gyro, loaded fries - all with butter chicken). So I might have to do that next time. The one-star reviewer has a point - the website does not have a menu even though it says there is. But come on, that was the total basis for that review.

They also have other inventive offerings in their cocktail menu and a varied selection of wine by the glass. Normally, I prefer a locally owned establishment but the location was convenient and honestly, the menu sounded good. I did not get a steak, much to my personal dismay but my friend did and I thought he liked his. We started with some drinks (wine for me and my one friend and a cocktail for the other). Our waiter was very pleasant and gave us plenty of time to decide in between friendly chatter. We had a little mishap where my friend's wine (red wine) fell off the tray and went everywhere. They gave him some towels and soda water to clean and were very apologetic. He was wearing jeans, thankfully! They even took it off his bill to compensate for the trouble. The manager came out and again apologized. We started with some calamari which were delicious and freshly prepared. They were light and crunchy with a wonderful marinara accompaniment. I ordered the ahi tuna prepared medium, served on top of sushi rice. Both the preparation and flavors were exceptional. We were offered dessert twice but simply could not accommodate any more. The food we had were good and satisfied our appetite. I would, of course, like to come back here and try their steak someday!

It's…read moresandwiched in between a couple restaurants and since the sign isn't big, it can be hard to miss. When I walked in, I was surprised at how big it was. I took a gander at the menu and decided on the grilled chicken rice bowl and a small piece of the pistachio baklava all to go. It wasn't long until my food was ready and off I went. Since I was hungry, I figured I'd try the baklava to hold me over until I got home. To my surprise, it was freezing cold! I've never had cold baklava in my life, so suffice to say it was a bit unsettling. Since I was focusing on how cold it was, I couldn't even tell you if it was actually good. Since the baklava wasn't hitting, I was really hoping the bowl would but unfortunately, that, too, came up short. There was a garlic sauce on top but it did absolutely nothing for the bowl. I think the bowl lacked flavor and was disappointing considering how good it looks in all the pictures. While my first experience wasn't the best, I'd be willing to give them another shot but it won't be anytime soon.

I liked the burger but I loved the laghman even more, and both of our yogurt drink tasted really good!

Apparently, they are the only Halal Chinese restaurant in STL! We started off with pumpkin sambosas: deep fried triangles filled with beef and pumpkin, dusted with powdered sugar. A good mixture of savory and sweet. Then we had to try their yellow hand-pulled noodles and they did not disappoint! I loved the bouncy texture of the noodles. The thick sauce had notes of spice and was slightly unbalanced but still yummy. It was perfect to sop up with their soft fluffy naan. Lastly, we got the sautéed mala chicken which was a massive portion for $26 - by itself, it could probably feed 3-4 people! It was truly mala (spicy and numbing) with generous Sichuan peppercorns. The chicken was flavorful, though slightly tough. This dish would've gone well with the yogurt drink. Overall, this was a great dinner for 2 people with leftovers. I'd like to try one of their lamb dishes next time. You should definitely give them a try!
