OHMYGOODNESS. Im no indian food critic but I am a food snob and this is the BEST Indian food Ive had among 7 different states. The mulligatawny had great flavor but is a tiny bit salty but works great over rice. The meat samosas were THE BEST IVE EVER HAD. Huge chunks of lamb so tender like Ive never experienced. More tender than filet mignon. Just melting in your mouth and the sauce inside was soooo flavorful. These were huge! Like 2 were practically a meal! Fluffy thick dough. The lemon cashew rice was alright. Not as much flavor as the dish gives the impression of description-wise and visually but its a nice gentle blend. Not many cashews. Just tiny scarce pieces. The green cilantro sauce and tangy vinegar brown sauce r both amazingggg as well. The Malai kabob is ridiculously tender, juicy, and flavorful. The rasmalai was delicious and sweet but not too sweet and the other flavors underneath were delightful. Will definitely be back.

Their food is horriable and their service is just as bad. I order a seafood dish that I paid $15.00 for and they put three shrimp in it with about 5-6 pieces of bite size fish and a ton of rice. The man that waited on me was rude, and uunprofessional apparently talking on his cell phone was more important than waiting on the only customer in the restuarant at the time. He also refused to explain what was in the dishes displayed. He acted as if I was annoying him by asking qiestions, even though I made it clear to him that this was my first visit to this restaurant . Needless to say, they will not be getting anymore or my money. I wouldnt recommend this restaurant to anyone. The suck !!!

Service: Always try to call in on the weekend to order take-out. If they do answer, they tell you that theyre open later. You call back, same deal. Last weekend (2015-5-10) they refused to pick up and take our $60 order. So we decided to walk there, and there were two nurses who had successfully ordered, waiting for the place to open, which it never did. I was astonished at how they treat customers, ignoring us and plainly dismissing their own business. Food: The food is generally average, some dishes mediocre but the samosas are very good. We will not be ordering until management addresses these issues.

Me and my sister went there for lunch the service was horrible. We were planning to eat in, after placing our order we took out coats off and sat at a table, after a few minutes the cook/host/cashier came out with a bag and threw it on the counter and disappeared. From him being so rude we decided to take our doggie bag of food and go home. My daal was tasteless, vegetable samosas taste like a bunch of flour, also tasteless, the plain white rice had more flavor then our other items. I will never patronize this establishment ever again. Horrible service and horrible food.

Horrible horrible food.. we order online and got delive after 1 hour and 40 minutes, that made us so angry and as we got food the delivery guy was like we dont go to deliver food in apartment you have to come down at front desk. And after opening food the paneer cury was so horrible they add lots of food color. My friend has habit of eating food by hand, next morning his fingers were literally red. We would never go back to this place.

My husband and I have gotten takeout here periodically for the past two years, and the lady who runs the register (and, Id assume, the whole place) is always so nice. She is always very concerned for me if she thinks Ive ordered my food too spicy! I especially love the Malai Kofta, the Samosas, and the Dahi Aloopapri here.

The food here is amazing, Ive never been disappointed! The lunch buffet is a great deal - under $10 for all you can eat, and everything is delicious. Students also get 10% off any bill. If youre in the neighborhood or want to order delivery nearby, this is a great choice.

Staff was not cooperative....only one person who manage take order, cook and serve... It took 1 hr to serve food and instead of apologies he arguing with us very rudely...worst experience and food was not good.

One of the best tasting and best priced Indian food restaurants in Philadelphia. The food is always rich and delicious and the service is always good. They have a lunch buffet and takeout deal that cant be beat.

A rip-off. They gave me an automatic 18% gratuity. I will never step foot into this establishment as long as I live. I think Ill only eat Pakistani food from now on out of spite.

Like all other indian restaurant in Philly I do not like their buffet. Few ala carte items are good but not that great. One good thing the proce is comparatively low.
