Was craving Indian food and decided to give this place a try. I ordered their dinner plate, which…read morewas under $12 and came with rice, two curries, and naan--definitely seems like a great deal for the price. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed with the flavor. While the portion and value were solid, the curries were very bland and lacked the bold spices and depth of flavor I usually expect from Indian food. The naan ended up being my favorite part of the meal--it was the standout on the plate. Overall, great value if you're looking for an affordable meal, but I was hoping for much more flavor.

So stuffed after eating all the yummy things!…read more We ordered garlic naan, vegetable pakora, gobi manchurian, butter chicken, paneer tikka masala, paneer saag, kheer, gulab jamun, and ras malai. Our order also included a large to go container of basmati rice. There was plenty to feed our family of 5. We ordered mild for everything. The butter chicken was our favorite savory dish. We loved the garlic naan, for obvious reasons (garlic lovers here). The gobi manchurian was a new dish for us. It sounded good so we tried it and happy that we did. It was fresh and flavorful. We hadn't ordered Indian desserts before so we tried a little of everything. Hands down the gulab jamun was the winner! So light, fluffy and soaked in a delicious syrup. I kinda wish there were more but am glad there wasn't because I don't know if I could control myself (ha)! We ordered online and had it delivered. The wait was a little long but that is to be expected at prime dinner time. I can't speak to the service other than how they prepared and packaged the food, both of which were good. The food arrived still hot and ready to go. Overall, I think it was well priced, worth the wait and delicious. We will likely order from here again!

The space feels very casual and low-key, more like a neighborhood spot than a big sit-down restaurant, which I actually liked. I ordered the pav bhaji, which was pretty good. It wasn't anything mind-blowing, but it tasted very home-style and comforting, which made it enjoyable in its own way. The flavors were solid and it felt like something you'd eat at home rather than a super heavy restaurant version. Service was quick and efficient, which was great especially since the place was busy. Overall, it's a nice little spot if you're in the area and craving Indian food, and I'd definitely like to come back and try some of their other items to get a better feel for the menu.

Biryani is my favorite Indian dish and this was not up to par with quality biryani I've had in the past. I got to try their Samosa as well, which was good but extremely soggy.

I ordered the paneer masala sandwich and the paneer schezwan sandwich. Both were really good and packed with flavor. The schezwan one had a nice spicy kick, but it was still really balanced and flavorful. The portions were also great for the price -- definitely filling. The staff were very friendly and happy to give recommendations, and the service was quick even though the place was fairly busy. Another plus is the space itself. There's plenty of seating inside, lots of parking since it's in a larger plaza, and they also have restrooms available. Overall, a really solid spot if you're looking for flavorful Indian-style sandwiches. I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

We were able to easily find a table inside. The ambiance itself is very welcoming and Indian themed. I liked the fact that they have a water station, it made water so accessible. The person at the counter was very sweet and helped us pick dishes. We got chicken sandwiches, vada pav, dahi puri, pav bhaji and chocolate sandwich. All the dishes came out relatively quick. The food looked really good! The dahi puri was well made and each puri was created with perfection. The spice level was on point. The vada pav was delicious but had a higher spice level. It did come with two chutneys. The sandwiches were yummy too! We definitely recommend trying the street food chaat items, they were best! The portion size was perfect. The pav bhaji was flavorful and tasted authentic. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend checking out this restaurant if you are craving for street food!

Baba Kabob is no-frills, but friendly, down-to-earth, and pretty tasty. I ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich and my godson ordered the Baba kabob, which is essentially the same but with gyro meat included. Both sandwiches also came with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and tzatziki. My favorite thing about these sandwiches was how non-greasy they were. Sometimes halal street food can get greasy or overly oily, but these sandwiches weren't like that. Also, the meat tasted pretty high quality. The large bottle of sriracha at the table was a nice plus, too. Overall, pretty tasty, fresh halal street food. Prices are slightly steep, but the quality, atmosphere, and customer service offset that enough.
