One of the heaters was not working too well, unfortunately, but they had said they were fixing it and should be up within the next little bit. We ordered, and sat down with a timer buzzing. The buzzer went off with each plate, about 5 to 10 minutes apart. That part of the service was a little lagging since we were not all able to eat together. The food itself was very tasty and well made with quality ingredients. The overall was pretty cost efficient and tasty. The dosa was very fresh and flaky. The ambiance was what was expected in terms of very cultural to this food truck. Highly recommend it.

I love this restaurant! Indian food is made with a lot of nut products to keep the curry rich but…read moreSangam is great about not using nuts. I have a have nut allergy and I have never had any allergic reactions to any of the food. I love their chicken biryani, chicken 65, all the naan breads and their chicken tikka! The spice is not too much for me and it's not over powering. I believe they can accommodate your spice level bc I do like my Indian food spicy. They do have a lunch menu but I personally just love the take out. The location does have a seating area and has a buffet section on the side; it's well kept and not too overwhelming. Give this place a try, definitely try a different item each time. This is my go to Indian restaurant in Denton .

I suppose it's my own fault for not actually READING the most recent reviews. I realize now that…read moreall the good reviews have been over 1yr ago. But I was headed home and wanted to grab something en route for the family to eat. I glanced and saw a high rating and figured I can't go wrong with Indian food. Anyplace I've eaten had alway been good! So, I ordered Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Biryani, and Goat Curry through Yelp app. I was 5 minutes away and food was ready for pickup when I arrived, which pleased me but also made me wonder if it wasn't fresh. Nevertheless I arrived home and the food was packaged well and that was the end of the good experience. Surprisingly the food was rather terrible. And I have NEVER had bad Indian food. The Biryani was bland and hot for hot sake, like spicy and flavorless. The Nan was thick and rubbery. The tandoori was dry and nasty, like having a sour taste to it. My husband had the goat and said the sauce wasn't good. Overall I don't recommend this place. Seriously I hate I wasted $50+ with them and I honestly wish I could get my money back. Two thumbs way down. Save yourself and your money! Eat someplace else.

The Butter Sauce Here Changed My Life (and Possibly My Religion)…read more Let me start by saying this. I have eaten a lot of Indian food. Like probably-should-have-a-punch-card-at-every-restaurant-in-Dallas levels of Indian food. So when I stumbled on Spicy Chowk in Denton, tucked in a random shopping center that does not exactly scream culinary magic, I was not expecting much. But then I saw it. The dining room was packed. And not just packed, people were locked in, eating like they were defending their plates from thieves. That is when I knew something serious was going down. So I parked. I walked in. And I am telling you right now, this place delivers. Let's cut straight to the chase. The butter sauce here is the truth. Forget whatever you think you know about butter chicken versus tikka masala. I ordered both on my first visit because I am a responsible adult who makes brave culinary decisions, and I can say without hesitation the butter sauce wins. It is richer, it has that perfect tang, that deep tomato pop, that silky balance of spice and cream that makes you rethink every good tikka masala you have ever had. If you are one of those tikka loyalists, hear me out. You are going to walk in thinking tikka is the move. I get it, I have been you. But trust me, the butter here is where it is at. That is your go-to order. Now let's talk momos because these little flavor bombs are not messing around. The masala momos and butter momos are next-level. I do not know what kind of magic they are working back there, but these dumplings are addictive. You get that Nepali flair with all the depth of Indian spice, and the combo plate is honestly the best way to roll. Round it all out with some garlic naan, which is dangerously good, and a side of rice, and you are basically guaranteed to leave happy, full, and maybe slightly emotional. I have had the saag, which was excellent, and the korma, which was solid, but I am telling you, the butter sauce is the star of the show. That is your ticket. Order the butter anything, butter chicken, butter paneer, butter momos, whatever. Just make sure butter is somewhere in that sentence. Bottom line, Spicy Chowk is one of those rare hidden gems that punches way above its location. It is vibrant, flavorful, and absolutely worth the drive. You will find me here dipping naan like it is a full-time job.

Tried them recently (named Bindaas). Very authentic and spicy (they did not have a spicyness level…read moreoption -be fore warned if you are new to Indian food heat!). The atmosphere is nice (I miss Sweetwater though, lots of memories in there) and the customer sercive was polite, although if you are not knowledgeable about what you like, it may be hard to navigate the large menu. I recommend the onion samosas! Glad to have more traditional Indian food choices in Denton that are not locked into having to dumb down the spice level to get locals to eat there, since so many Indians live in Denton now. My Indian food review resume: been to India twice, Nepal (momos!), have tried over 50 indian restaurants in the DFW area (some of the best Indian food in the world can be found here!), and have eaten at Indian restaurants in many major US cities. Im not Indian, but I have decent experience with their food (North and South)

It's an order at a register and food brought to you type of place, so if you want full service dining I'd recommend Namaste instead. I wanted to branch out from my normal Masala or Korma, so decided to try the Chicken Pulao. Very spicy for me, but the flavor was on point. The rice was delicate, fluffy, and seasoned perfectly. I received two sauces with my meal; I'm not sure what they were, but they were mild. One was white with onions and peppers- seemed to be a yogurt sauce. The other was yellowish. Both were very tasty. I also ordered garlic naan and was not a fan of it at all. Naan is usually a must have for me when it's offered, but I'll be passing up on it the next time I eat here. It wasn't soft and didn't have much garlic flavor. Tough to chew on. Not appetizing at all. Excited to try them again.

Prices were reasonable and the option to sit on the benches or eat from our car gave me college vibes.

Left with the food and the intention not to return. However to be fair, the food was pretty good when I got home and ate with the family. The spices are just beautifully done and cooked with care. While the wait is not ideal I can say the food was great. If it was just about the food I'd say 4-5 stars easily and perhaps I'd call it in next time and finish a few more pickleball games next door before walking over to pick it up. But the overall experience I would rate a 3. All forgiven as I realize sometimes it happens. Maybe next time it will be better overall.
