3/15/24 Chicken Tikka Masala ordered spicy with rice, Roti & samosas ordered. The worker had a difficult time speaking fluent English, but was nice & apologized. It worked out. He said it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I went in to get it shortly later. The worker was kind and the order was ready! Paid for it & left. Lunchtime! Order split. Samosa was Really DELICIOUS! Great dude sauces too! Chicken Tikka Masala was Great! Nice spicy flavor & really great with the rice included! Roti or? Not sure if it was that. Tasted like a garlic naan & it was still good. Think that was the minor language barrier. Plus, I have leftovers! Mother said hers was Great & I picked the right place. We looked at many Indian restaurants. Good service & Great lunch! Highly recommended! read more

Such a good experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and there were plenty of options to choose from. Would definitely visit again!

One of the best Indian Punjabi food experiences I've had! Everything tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful--fish, chicken, dal, roti, and egg bhurji all cooked to perfection in a clay tandoor. You can truly taste the authenticity and care in every bite. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Punjabi comfort food straight from the tandoor! read more

Good food! Owners are very nice and welcoming! Inside is nice and clean. The garlic nan bread is delicious!

Absolutely delicious, authentic Indian food. Everything we ordered was fantastic. The chicken tikka masala was rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The garlic naan was one of the best I've had, wonderfully garlicky with a slight crisp on the bottom that made it perfect for scooping up the sauces. The lamb curry was amazing, tender, deeply spiced, and incredibly satisfying. The bhangan (eggplant dish) was also super yummy and full of flavor. And to finish it off, the gajrela (carrot dessert) and gulab jamun was a really nice sweet, comforting way to end the meal. Highly recommend if you're looking for authentic Indian food! read more

My family and I stumbled upon this place by chance and I'm really glad we did. It ended up being some of the most authentic Indian food I've had in a long time. I had the bhangan bharta and daal thali, and everything was excellent. The bhangan bharta had that great smoky flavor and the daal was rich and comforting. It felt like a real home-style meal. My wife and daughter had the chicken tikka masala with roti and it was delicious. The chicken was tender, the sauce was perfectly spiced, and the fresh roti was perfect for dipping. We finished with mango ice cream and gulab jamun, which were both amazing. The mango ice cream was refreshing and the gulab jamun was warm and perfectly sweet. Great food, authentic flavors, and a really nice surprise find. We'll definitely be coming back. read more

Sometimes I get pretty bad cravings for Indian, or Punjabi cuisine and this place has hit the spot every time. The Chicken Curry is pretty spicy but it's so good and the garlic naan is amazing with it too. The Veg Samosas are big and packed, plus they're super yummy. The people who run it are super nice too and they've always treated me kindly when I've come in to sit down after ordering. The inside of the store is very nice as-well. Overall, five stars! The foods super good, the service is quick and good, and the food is always fresh. read more

We decided to stop by this place for lunch on the way to SoCal from Yosemite, and what a surprise find it turned out to be! We ordered chole bhature, aloo paratha, palak paneer (for kids with no spice), kadhai paneer, tawa and tandoori rotis, and chai. Everything we ordered was excellent. The portion sizes were great and very reasonable prices. We had plenty of leftovers. The owners were very nice and had great recommendations. Will definitely visit again when in the area. Ambience wise it's a no frills mom and pop kind of a place. But the place was clean and inviting. read more

We were looking for Indian food, but didn't want to get à la carte and have so much food for our drive. So pleased this place had combo meals (Thali). Also ordered veggie pakoras which came out hot and fresh as did all our food. Everything was SO flavorful, and we appreciated PJ's explanations when we had questions. Perfect spice level, which PJ had asked our preference upon ordering. Pay at the end - smart because we added on Mango Lassi and almost tried the desserts lol The only issue, no way to add a tip onto our credit card payment. Tipping not expected but the food and service was so amazing we wanted to give more than the few dollars we had in cash. We will be back next time we roll through the area! read more

Food was great. Actually had a bit of spice in the Tika masala so I was happy. Nothing hot but delicious. Wanted to try the fish but menu doesn't list what kind it is. I'll definitely be back. Guy who serves you and takes your order seems serious or like he's mad but I'm sure it's just how he carries himself. As long as you don't expect amazing service, you'll be happy....remember...if the food is great..who cares about service read more

Absolutely loved this Indian spot -- every dish was bursting with bold, authentic flavors. From the buttery garlic naan to the perfectly spiced curry, it felt like a warm hug from India . read more

This is a great place. The price is appropriate and the service okay. The food quantity is good. I'm glad I found this place. read more

We have ordered take out three times from Daana Paani and have been impressed by the consistency in flavor and quality. Our favorite dishes are the Baigan de bharta, vege biriyani, butter chicken, cholle bhatture, garlic naan and allo gobi. The vege biriyani is one the best biriyani dishes I have tasted! Their vege samosas are also delicious but not necessarily my favorite (I prefer a crispier texture). They are great with honoring our mild spice request, something that other Indian restaurants miss the mark on. We have only ordered take out so our experience with service is limited to the register. It does seem like we might have been overcharged the last time but this is also on us for not taking notice before we left;we will definitely double check the charges the next time we order. Ambiance isn't the best but thankfully the food travels well as take out and we get to enjoy eating from the comfort of our home. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for delicious Indian food! read more

Service was awesome. but...I ordered prawn vindaloo and the shrimp were the tiniest of shrimps imaginable. The vindaloo sauce was delicious as with the garlic naan. i will definitely try this place again. Just dont call it 'prawn" when there werent. They were comparable to the tiny shrimp you get in a cup noodle. read more

We stopped for chai and samosa. They were both great! Nothing like chai and samosa after a long drive. The people at the store very very nice and friendly. We loved the chai, it had a masala flavor unlike most other places. The ambiance is basic, nothing fancy but the prices are very reasonable. We did not get to try anything for dinner but they had a full menu. Next time we'll give it a shot. read more

Food was amazing.well maintained and staff is friendly.looking for coming back again.thanks

Food was superb. Very low-key dining but worth it. In a strip mall with limited seating. Pricing is reasonable.

I tried this restaurant for the first time and it was so yummy. Their food is flavorful and fresh. I'm always hesitant on getting take out but the food still tasted amazing!! A huge plus for me. The fish pakore are perfectly cooked and they hit the spot. If you're thinking about trying this place, do not hesitate. They have amazing service as well and 100% worth it. Will definitely be cinkng What I had: Fish Pakore Butter chicken Garlic naan (super soft!!!) Mango lassi read more

Hi there. So I'm not one to write reviews, but oh my goodnsss I had to come on here to share. Daana Paani is the best Punjabi style food you could ever have. Now I will say stick to pretty generic orders with food that isn't Mexican. When it comes to the menu: I stick to the butter chicken and chicken tikka masala. Now with that being said: this is the best I have ever had out of every Punjabi cuisine restaurant that I've been to. And we're talking all over Fresno + LA. Hands down my favorite place. I will go out of my way to pick up dinner, and the drive alone is 30 min from where I live. It is worth it every. single. time. Not to mention, their food is surprisingly cheap? Two orders of either or (butter chicken, chicken tikka) with two side of rice and two sides of garlic naan will "set you back" about 30 bucks. And the portions are relatively big. If you want a lil something sweet for dessert or just to go with your meal, I recommend their mango lassis. read more

The curry chicken was great. And appetizer fish fry was very tasty. Will defensively go again.

This is the best Punjabi food I have had in the US. The food is legit Punjabi dhaba style. Tandoori roti that melts in your mouth and garlic Nan was soft like a pillow. Papdi chaat was also a hit, their chutneys are made from real and fresh ingredients. We also had their daal makhani and shahi paneer and those too made us feel like we are transported to Punjab. read more

My girlfriend and I went there for the first time! Super bomb good! We're gonna go back for sure next time we go to Yo Se Mite!!

Absolutely delicious home style food. We stopped here on the way from sequoia national park, tired and hungry. At first, the place looks small but the food was so good, it uplifted our moods! Like they say m, good food is good mood! We enjoyed so much that we didn't take pics. We tried chai, alu paratha, rice , Shahi paneer, garlic naan, salted lassi & Icecream! Chai was but sweet but very flavorful, paratha was delicious & yogurt was just perfect homemade kind. Must stop if you're around! read more

I have been to Daana Paani multiple times now & I have been pleased every time! They cook the food with care and amazing flavors!! I know b/c I can taste it! Thank you Daana Paani for satiating my Indian Food Cravings & taste buds! :) read more

It was our first time at Daana Paani. My family and I all ordered Thaalis: non veg and vegetarian. The food was so good and delicious. Daal makhani exactly tasted like it did in india. The service at this restaurant was great. It is not that big of a place but their service was excellent. We also tried mango lassi which tasted so delicious. I would like to go back again.

So not a good experience in this place at all. I read the online reviews I was in the area and decided to try it for lunch. My food took almost an hour to come out. (45 min). I only ordered veggie Pakora, tandoori, shrimp, and white rice. The Pakora came out about 15 min later so I was hungry and got to mention those which I liked and we're pretty good. The problem started when I got to tandoori shrimp. There were only about seven or eight shrimp, less than 1 inch big on the plate. When I bit into the first one, I realized that it tasted like dry sawdust. So I tried a few more and they were all the same. I didn't realize that the shrimp I had been served were severely freezer burnt and then over cooked on the grill cremating them basically turning them into dry cardboard. I then took it up to the front to show the person at the register to suddenly pretended not to speak English, then she said " I don't know". So I indicated to her that I do know these are freezer burnt and inedible so I would like a refund. She stated that's how they are and explained she wouldn't give me one. I told her I've eaten this particular dish from a variety of nearly 100 Indian restaurants and have never had it served like this, as it was inedible. My advice is to keep driving and try another restraint that actually cares about customers. read more
