It was our first time here and it was absolutely wonderful! A little apprehensive because I've never been to an Indian cuisine restaurant. The place was clean and neat. Our waiter helped us decide and was very pleasant. We ended up getting an appetizer and sharing a big sample platter. I can't believe that everything on the plate including the appetizer was very good! I'll be visiting again soon for sure!
My brother and I were just passing by and saw the billboard. It was the best U turn we took. We entered and the smell of the food had already gave us a hint that it will be the best and it was one, in a longest time that I have had Indian food. The naan they had prepared were from tandoor and we have not had that in America. Other places they serve the frozen ones. We have loved it and would stop by always and would recommend others. People are good and welcoming and kept checking on us. Recommended for unforgettable experience of Indian food. Thanks a lot team.
Kulche chole and chole bhature are very authentic. Not all the food they make there like not all the chaap options are made there so make sure to ask the server. Regardless all of the items on menu are delicious
I've been to dozens of Indian restaurants in the US and this is the only one that didn't ask what spice level I wanted. To me that is a good thing. That means they are only focused on making the food taste good...and it was good! They have dishes that I have never seen. The cauliflower appetizer was sweet, spicy, smoky, and savory. The dishes were perfectly spiced and wonderfully seasoned with herbs. The gas station location and the rebel flag across the street are not ideal, but I got over it when I smelled the food. I'm going to be a return customer!
This place is great! What an awesome find. There's a few parking spots for large trucks outback. FOOD is EXCELLENT!! I'll definitely be stopping by again in the future.
Good Indian food.They can adjust spice levels well. Conveniently located easy on and off the interstate. Courteous staff . They do well on their grill items. Apartently they have an indoor Tandoor. Ambience is to be desired for since the restaurant used to be an old Huddle house and they still use the same posters and plates.
This is the most authentic and delicious dhaba food I have ever had. And this includes eating @ several dhabas in India. Tandoori chicken, sikh kabab, daal makhni and daal. All spectacular and flavorful. This is a can't miss. Don't forget the Lassi: it's delicious. I was here twice in two days. This is really fantastic. The owner's and staff are very nice and genuine
