Prices are reasonable, food is great, and service was fast and professional. Plus, there's some nice music in the background. I would have taken a picture but I ate my meal too fast.
First time trying Indian cuisine and had a wonderful experience with this place. The food was rich in flavor and the portion sizes were great. I ordered the butter chicken, chicken tikka marsala, veggie samosas, chicken samosas, and garlic naan. ALL SUPERB! No complaints whatsoever.
I have been to this place a few times, but my most recent order came from UberEats, and I was pleased with the overall service I received. GLOWS: - The Aloo tikki is really good (I consider them the Indian version of a hash brown, packed with flavor). - I usually get their Papdi chat, which is a cold chickpea "stew." This time it was a little more spicy than I would like, but still pretty good. - They give a good portion of tandoori chicken in an order, which leaves a little for lunch the next day-- if you can help yourself from eating it all. GROWS: -Their naan bread is not the best I have ever had. It's a little thin and does not have a lot garlic flavor.
First time customer here! Stopped by last night on my way home from work. It was late, and I was craving Saag Paneer. I gave Kitchen of India a call since they are on my way home. A really friendly guy named Bob answered the phone and took my order. An hour later I was enjoying the best Saag Paneer I ever had. They even give you one Gulab Jamun for dessert in a little cup! All of their foods are home made, and even the Paneer cheese is made in-house. I was so VERY pleased with everything, and I can't wait to try their other menu items. Thanks so much Bob for making my night.
I was in the area and was craving mutton curry. Looked up indian restaurants nearby and stumbled upon this place. Ordered on Yelp and reached there in about 15 mins. The order status showed that the restaurant has not accepted the order. Dining area was closed, so I walked to the pickup section of the restaurant and it turned out that my order was already ready. I was glad that I checked on them instead of waiting. Coming to the food, it was easily some of the best Indian food I had, ever. I ordered goat curry in medium spicy level which was delicious! It had generous amounts of meat which were perfectly cooked. It was served with what I am assuming is jasmine rice. Rice was well cooked too. Not dry or soggy. Also ordered keema naan. It was soft and well made. Gulab jamun was listed as home made, so had to give it a shot. I am glad I did. It was soft and juicy, just the right amount of sweetness. These people know how to cook great food. Will be back soon to explore their menu.
So. New to the area I was in search of furniture and caught this place out of the corner of my eye. After shopping decided to ck out yelp to see the reviews From the road I thought Itd be divey and suspect, but glad I read the reviews and gave it a chance It's in a lil strip mall alongside a cleaners a sushi bar and a medical equipment place. So was very surprised how much like a normal restaurant it was inside. Indian music and beads hanging from the ceiling with a few Indian paintings. Welcomed by a young hostess/waitress, for the 2hrs I was there no other patrons other than a couple of to-go orders. I'm guessing it was just a slow night because she said Friday was hopping. Started with garlic naan: very buttery and delicious. The lentil (?)crackers and 3 sauces were great as well. Hint: don't eat too much or you'll be full before the entree arrives! I wanted to try it all but since I was alone I got the "sampler": Tandoori Mixed Grill. Has 2tyoes of chicken, shrimp, salmon, and lamb. I don't eat shrimp so asked for extra salmon. Should've asked for extra lamb because I only got one piece! They were nice enough to bring me another though Ordered it hot, shoulda gone w Indian hot, cause it really wasn't spicy. Still good Salmon was perfect and moist, as was one kind of chicken. The other was borderline dry but closer to the moist side so no complaints. The vegetables in the sauce were plentiful and flavorful! I enjoyed the side sauce as well. Basmati rice was great- coulda been hotter (heat wise) but still good. The water was AWESOME. It came in a carafe so don't know if it was originally tap or bottled, but it had no after taste-no taste at all, which water shouldn't, and went down well. Drank the whole carafe alone. Total was $23 for one. But I have enough for two more meals, that's only $8/meal for "home cooking". If in the neighborhood I'll return. Hopefully this review will help get them more customers in a random Saturday night
