We are regulars here. I think we eat here every week. Our order has not changed in a long time…read more Their chole bature, chicken 65, goat biryani and butter chicken are all quite consistent. Kids love the butter chicken. We've also catered from them 2-3 times for large parties 100 people and it was all really good. While the restaurant and food are good, their outside, parking smells of gutter. It's quite a stink. They don't have a business next to them. Not sure what that is however seems like a health hazard. The city should definitely check.

First visit, on a Monday, so pretty quiet dining. Pretty basic setup with menus and drinks,…read morefriendly staff was attentive and welcoming. The Hop Queen ordered the non-veg lunch special, butter chicken, and I ordered the Vindaloo (spicy), as this is my usual litmus test for a new Indian restaurant. Everything was prepared fresh for us, nothing tasted like it had been prepped before we arrived. Lots of fresh spice flavour, and the naan was a bit different (in a good way) from other places - nice texture and crunch with the flavour. Lots of interesting looking items on menu, it was a nice touch that almost all were ID'd with a specific region in India. Would be fun to work through the menu and try different items!

The food here is excellent. I tried it randomly based on reviews and it was fantastic. I had the…read morepaneer biryani which was a little different but delicious, especially with the raita. I've also had the veggie tikka masala, which is typically my favorite, and it was great, but my new favorite is paneer makhani. So, so good. Similar to a tikka masala with paneer but better. I highly recommend trying it! I've ordered medium spice level in the past and it has not been very spicy at all. I've only done DoorDash, never been there. It's always been hot, on time, etc. etc.

I appreciate flavor and this place was full of it. My only complaint was that I asked for it to be spicy spicy and it was more flavorful than spicy. Otherwise no complaints! I love Indian food and this spot did not disappoint. The service was speedy and the outdoor dining area is very nice. Will definitely be returning soon to try some more menu options:)

Still an awesome value for the quality and quantity of food we get, and we appreciate the adjustable spice levels! They always ask, and then double check after the food is served, to make sure it's what you wanted. I like extra spicy, and they gave me the "make the gori cry" level, and the Hop Queen likes extra mild, and it fits her tolerance well.

Food - 10/10: Easily some of the most authentic North Indian food I've had in the Austin area…read more Every dish was packed with flavor and tasted freshly made. The portion sizes were generous too, so you definitely get good value for your money. Service - 10/10: The service really stood out. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about our experience. They checked in on us throughout the meal without being intrusive, which made us feel well taken care of. Ambiance - 7/10: The restaurant is clean, comfortable, and welcoming, but the atmosphere is fairly simple. It's not a place I'd choose for a fine dining experience, but it's perfect for a casual meal with family or friends. One small change that could make a big difference would be swapping the bright white lighting for warmer yellow lighting--it would instantly create a cozier, more inviting vibe. Overall: If you're craving authentic North Indian food in the Austin area, this place is absolutely worth a visit. Great food, excellent service, generous portions, and a satisfying dining experience. I'll definitely be back!

Gang, I was stuck…read moreon a project from 7am to 1:30pm on US 183 north of Leander and left the job for Austin with a hankering for Indian food. I am a sucker for hole in the wall places at gas stations so I saw from Google a place at the Quick Mart at Bagdad and Hero Way that had good reviews for Indian food. So I gave it a try and so glad I did! I got their Classic Chicken Tikka Masala - Spicy and could not be more pleased! Great portion and flavor so spot on and spice level perfect! Good job Quick Mart Leander!!! I will be back.

What a gem... Lali Son used to be in this location but they moved to a food truck a couple of miles…read moredown the road. I sort of suspect the same folks, or relatives/friends own this place, because the food is VERY similar. I have tried many of the vegetarian and non-vegetarian main dishes, appetizers, breads, etc. and it's a bit less expensive, but just as great IMHO. And as I originally wrote when I reviewed the original owner, it's in a a GAS STATION!! You can't go wrong with either place.

Wow! What a hidden gem! I regularly pick up food near Dwaraka's and had never really noticed this…read moreplace. It's amazing. The food is incredible and homemade. You can taste the authenticy. Please remember they make their dishes per order and this takes time. A good curry or biryani is not made in 15 minutes. We ordered several dishes. To start we had the samosas, pakoras, and my child had the children's chicken lollypop appetizer. For the main dishes we had the hydrabadi chicken biryani, aloo chole, and my child had the keema child's biryani. We also had the mint cilantro chutney and it reminds me of homemade chutney. All were very flavorful and very fresh. My aloo was served with a good portion of rice. All the portions were large. We ate here on Sunday and we still have leftover biryani and I'm finishing my aloo. One thing we noticed that was odd compared to where I usually visit was the server. They were kind of awkward at first and had the "melinneal stare." BUT consider that people can be neurodivergent! The service was great and prompt. It was a bit warm, but the server heard our comments and went and moved a big fan they had out to combat how warm it was. I highly recommend trying them out! To the chefs - please please please put the tomato dahl you have on your online ordering! I'd come here weekly to taste your version.

I came for the curry and stayed for the naan! Walked in on Friday evening and it was quiet inside…read more This was our first time trying this spot. It did get busier as we were dining. We ordered the pepper chicken, Andhra chicken curry, Hyderabad chicken dum biryani and garlic naan. The pepper chicken had good flavor. I should have asked for something spicier than the medium spice level as it wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be. The chicken curry was good with tender pieces of chicken. The chicken biryani came with two pieces of chicken on a bone and the flavor was good. I will need to come back to try more items. This place was definitely busy with to go orders.

The ambiance was wonderful, with plenty of outdoor seating, fairy lights, and a large bounce house for kids to enjoy while you eat. I ordered the Guntur Masthan Goat Fry Pulao and asked for the food to be extra spicy -- they did not disappoint! Usually when I request extra spicy food from Indian restaurants they take into account the fact I am American and water down the spice (which drives me crazy). This truck made it perfectly spicy, flavorful, and delicious! The goat was tender and the staff were friendly; I highly recommend this place and will be returning to try another dish.

I can honestly say that Masala Kitchen has the best dabeli you can have in this area. It has all the elements in the perfect ratio, bhaji with sweet and spicy chutney and the most essential peanut and pomegranate toppings. The ragda pattice is also quite tasty. Chicken Frankie roll was huge and well cooked although we liked the chaat items better.
