I ordered this via DoorDash as I was feeling super lazy last Saturday (also why I didn't review the service/atmosphere as I've never been in the restaurant) so forgive my clustered photos, but WOW, talk about running across a hidden gem! When I took the food out of the bag I knew it was going to be good just by the smell and how looked in the plastic bowl they put it in and somehow it was even better than I expected! I ordered the chicken karachi, which I've never had before at any restaurant. From what I can see, it seems to be a stewed chicken dish thats made a little spicy. Disclaimer: I'm not a big fan of food that's very spicy so some people may not think that this one was very spicy as it was around the edges of my personal tolerance, but the combination of juiciness, tenderness, rice, and spice level in this dish made it absolutely incredible! Now I did have to order the white rice and naan separately which is kind of a bummer and as you can see by the photo I put some rice (of which they gave a ton!!!) into a bowl and dumped the karachi in as well like one would gumbo, and I started eating it so fast that I forgot to take a photo so what you're seeing is is maybe about half of what the serving was. The naan itself was decent, though nothing to write home about to be honest, though it hit me as I'm writing this that next time I should try dipping it in the broth- and there most definitely will be next times! I absolutely, 100% recommend the chicken karahi!
Great Indian food. Ordered and Dined in multiple times. Very much recommended!! 😀😀❤️❤️.
Butter chicken and biriyani are very tasty.
I was surprised everything was made to order - even the tandoori naans! My favorites were the chicken karahi and the fried fish - perfect level of spice and flavor! Definitely plan to come back
Everything was made fresh. We got the chicken karahi, butter chicken, chicken biryani, and fried fish. Everything was good. If I had to go with just one, I’d say chicken karahi would be my top choice.
Excellent food. We tried a few options, including the chicken boti, kadhai, fish and burgers. All were excellent. The food was very flavorful and had the right amount of spice.
