Stopped by on a Friday night with my wife after hearing about this place from friends. We weren't…read moreplanning to order much, but one thing led to another and we ended up sharing the butter chicken and the black dal. What I appreciated was how balanced everything tasted. The butter chicken had that familiar Delhi-style flavor without being overly sweet, and the dal had clearly been simmering for a long time. We were still talking about it on the drive home. Service was friendly, portions were generous, and the dining room had a relaxed vibe. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu.

I haven't had vada pav sliders before but the filling is kind of like fried samosa filling without the dough. It's good. The serving size of the biryani was very impressive. You can see from the photo that they fill the container and then add another mound of rice on top of that - basically 2 servings (we took one home). And they didn't skimp on the chicken either! The chicken is cooked perfectly, the sauces are a great complement and this is an excellent dish. The Lunch Thali gives you a lot of bang for your buck and mine included ~5 pieces of fish fry, about the same amount of veg pakora, yogurt dip, chicken curry with rice, 2 different soups, a naan/tortilla thing, and a carrot dessert (like a halwa). All had good flavor and the soups have a nice spicy kick to them. However, since all the dishes for the thali come off the lunch line (ie all premade), the tortilla, fish and pakoras had been sitting out for awhile and not too hot. Had they come out fresh from the fryer, I might have given this experience 5 stars. As it stands, I'll probably be back for lunch anyways - and the thali is available 7 days a week!

The flavor is off, as they seem to use coconut milk or something sweet which makes the gravy be as thin as water with a sweet flavor profile, which is just not for me. I would rate the Chicken Tikka Masala I had as a 2.5/10, which would be vastly improved by a thicker gravy.

However, Saturday night our usual place was unexpectedly closed, so we tried India 101. Why had we deprived ourselves for so long!? We were so pleased with our dining experience and with the variety and quality of the food. We walked in, were quickly greeted, led to a table, and were provided ice water. The hostess told us we could grab plates and utensils and enjoy the buffet at our own pace. We're vegetarian and found many dishes to eat: palak/saag paneer, paneer tika masala, pakoras, veg biryani, veg Manchurian, naan, roti, pani puri, samosas, mango lassi, a soda fountain, raita, and on and on and on. Your dirty dishes are quickly taken away by efficient staff, so grab a fresh plate when you return (and you WILL return) to the buffet. The establishment is clean, the music isn't too loud, and the buffet never felt too crowded or rushed. We were so pleased and look forward to returning. Adult Buffet is $25/person - well worth the cost. The ambiance is casual and there were singles, couples, families, and groups of friends dining. You'll feel comfortable if you go alone or with others. Enjoy!

I was greeted upon entering the establishment and was assisted by two of the workers. I explained that I was new to the area and not familiar with the menu. The one seemed uncertain about helping me and the other lady assisted me in choosing some items. I got the Butter Chicken, $12.99 medium, the garlic naan, $3.99, and a Pepper chicken fry, medium. The wait time was around 15 mins. The restaurant looked like it is well maintained and the bathroom looked maintained which is nice as they do reflect on any and every establishment. The dining area looked as if they set up for a buffet/family style meals, and there are about 3 tables for outdoor dining. Overall this was a pleasant experience and I'd say that the food was very pleasant in taste and appearance. As my order was ToGo, my expectations would be that the bag would have had plastic ware and napkins. This oversight was a major disappointment and a huge lacking to detail for a new patron and paying customer. I had to use the lids of the rice container as a makeshift spoon. Not very ideal and or it made for a poor dining experience. I'd not return to eat from Nizam's Kitchen 3601 Regent Boulevard Suite 140, Irving, TX, 75036

I've been to this momo spot multiple times before (mostly for to go orders) and it was kind of a…read morehit or miss last time, so I wanted to give it another try. This time I went a bit all out and ordered the butter chicken momo, creamy Sichuan momo, tandoori momo, steamed momo, and the Delhi masala momo. Honestly, this visit was way better. Last time the biggest issue was the sauce, it just wasn't enough and everything felt pretty dry, but this time they really fixed that and the sauces actually showed up, which made a huge difference. Everything tasted solid overall, though it really depends on what you like since the flavors are pretty different across the menu. The momo wrappers are on the thicker side, so if you're someone who prefers a thinner skin, just keep that in mind because that was the case with all the ones I tried. My favorite ended up being the tandoori momo, even though it was a bit salty, the flavor was really good. I usually don't go for butter chicken momo, but that one surprised me, it was actually a hit and everyone at the table liked it. The Delhi masala momo was vegetarian and still packed with flavor, and the creamy Sichuan momo was also pretty good. The place was pretty busy when we went, but the service was quick, so overall this time it felt like a much better experience.

I've never had nepal food before and i must say i can't believe i waited all this time to taste it. We ended up getting the Butter Chicken Momo and the Himalayan Kitchen Special Chow Mein (Beef) both for around 34 bucks. I know its a bit pricey for something that's fast and not at a full service restaurant, but i think it was worth it. The burst of flavor was intense on the momos... I really enjoyed the sweet and umami taste of the butter chicken sauce. one hack is to take a small bite of the momo and then fill the inside with sauce and then eat the whole momo. The chow mein was also really good and has a nice kick to it. This place is fairly close by my office and i'll be back.

I ordered the paneer tikka masala and loved that they let you choose between naan or rice since I'm not much of a rice person. The paneer pieces were large and they give a generous portion.

When I brought to the waiter, she said she would take the feedback to the kitchen and that they added the water to make the spicy goat curry that I ordered "not spicy". It seems to me like a tactic for cutting down portions, because if I asked for spicy, and I always get it one way, why suddenly add water ? Without me even complaining first that it is too spicy? I initially loved this place because of the quality. The Goat Curry was superb, the meat was incredibly tender and the curry itself was so rich and flavorful. It paired perfectly with the fresh Naan and Roti. I also really enjoyed the Mixed Pakora to start, and finishing the meal with their Chai and Gulab Jamun was the perfect ending. Beyond the food, the staff was incredibly attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. It was a huge space and i loved the booth seating for my friend and I. If you're looking for delicious north indian flavors and great service, this is the spot!
