This unassuming Indian restaurant in a strip mall has authentic Indian cuisine. They were friendly and polite, seating us immediately. It wasn't very large inside with several tables and booths. I originally wanted dosas but they didn't have it. I was a little disappointed but got tandoori chicken instead. The family around got different dishes. There was Saag paneer, chicken tikka masala, chicken dum biryani, garlic naan, and chicken korma. When it arrived we realized we ordered too much food. The portion size was huge. Everything has authentic Indian flavors. The food was quite delicious. My tandoori chicken was large, juicy, and cooked perfectly. I tried a little of everything. The tikka masala was seasoned well. The creaminess went well with the rice. There was plenty of chicken, same with the korma and saag paneer. The biryani was fragrant with plenty of meat. We loved the naan as well. read more

Peacock Indian Restaurant - Tandoori Chicken - Indian Near Me - Houston, Texas

Random find when craving Indian today. Small little, cozy restaurant in small shopping center, ran by family it seemed. Casual dining. I liked the peacock colored deco and feathers on wall. Although I would've liked a peacock mural or art perhaps. Sweet staff. Nice options of a variety of food. They allowed us to customize our food and get the less spicy option. The mild was perfect for just a hint of spice but not overwhelming heat. Ordered 2 dishes, portion size was perfect for just the two of us. Everything we got was delicious and tasted fresh. Will be back and would recommend. read more

Over the years, I've tried a lot of Indian food!!my best friend is Indian, so it's a cuisine I've grown to love and appreciate deeply. I've sampled it in many cities, but I have to say, this was hands down the best butter chicken I've ever had. I'd been here once before to try the pani puri, which was great, but today I finally explored more of the menu...and wow, I'm so glad I did. Every bite was packed with rich, authentic flavor. It was incredibly delicious and the portion sizes were generous. The pricing was more than fair for the quality and quantity. I also love that this place has that cozy, hole-in-the-wall charm...it just adds to the experience. I genuinely hope they never change their recipe because it was perfection. I didn't leave a single grain of rice on my plate! read more

I'll be back to try something different and revise my review. This is a relatively negative review. I don't like the prices or the paneer pakoda or butter chicken, but I love the selection. ON THE OTHER HAND, I LOVED THE CHATINAD CURRY. But the price was too high for such a small portion. I would come back only to try another dish from the varied menu. I think it might be because I've had too much to compare it to, but I thought the paneer palak and butter chicken were lackluster. The paneer palak had an off taste to it this time, and I was there with several Indian friends who could confirm that paneer usually is full of flavor whereas this one was more monotone. It could've just been the way this palak was intended! The butter chicken tasted too strongly of coconut and cream, and I couldn't really taste the spices as much - but I've simply had so much to compare it to. I enjoyed the butter chicken, but it wasn't my favorite butter chicken experience. I might recommend the tikka masala here instead. The chatinad curry had so much spice and I loved it - it's a very distinct flavor that I enjoyed. I'd like to come back to try the dosa, fish curry, and Rogan josh! read more

I've been looking for a new Indian spot on my side of town and finally found it! This will be my go-to from now on! Better than any of the others I've had on the West side and consistent! I also love they offer South Indian options as so many don't around here. I've done both delivery and eat-in and both have been great! The restaurant is clean, the service is friendly and fairly prompt, and they do offer wine which is nice. I've tried several things and all of it has been good! I don't think you can go wrong with anything and I'm excited to explore more dishes. So happy I found them! read more

Peacock Indian Restaurant - Mysore Masala Dosa :: Veg Samosa :: Chilli/Bullet Naan :: Daal Makhani ~~ All yummy I almost forgot to get a pic - Indian Near Me - Houston, Texas

This has easily become my go-to place for Indian food. The Chicken Mirapakodi was a great starter. The sauce was creamy, and the chicken was served in bite-size pieces. My mom and I really like their Chana Masala. It's a vegetarian curry with lots of chickpeas. One thing you HAVE to get is the garlic naan. Absolute gas. It's soft and packed with garlic. My favorite dish, though, definitely had to be the Special Biryani. The rice was so fluffy, and I loved the spiciness of the chicken it came with. My mom isn't able to tolerate spice well, but this place was great at making the other dishes mild enough without compromising on flavor. Can't wait to come back again. read more

Great new Indian spot on Eldridge across from the Greek church. The restaurant is kind of small. We waited about 10 mins for a table on a Saturday night. The tables are awkwardly set up and they need to refine their seating/service system. They had 2 people sitting at a table for 6. We ordered the mango lassi, tandoori fish, butter chicken, chili paneer, and Hakka noodles. I really liked the chili paneer - good portion, not too spicy and nice fried texture. The butter chicken was really good. The Hakka noodles had a nice taste but a bit dry. I asked for some soy sauce but was told they only had ketchup. No thanks lol. The fish was alright. I'd like to go back and try the biryani. They have an extensive menu with plenty of options. read more

Had a very tasty meal tonight! Started with Onion Pakoda that was hot and slightly spicy. Saag paneer did not disappoint- just the right heat (spicy) level. Chicken kabobs was enough for two people! Vindaloo Curry was on the mild side but very tasty. Plenty of basmati rice to go with everything. Garlic naan and butter naan were delish! The server was very attentive and pleasant. Enough food for another great meal at home! A pretty interior with lots of tables read more

Not so long ago I tried Chicken Biriyani for the first time. Since, I've been craving it. I came across to this spot that I literally drive by all the time. It's truly a hidden gem. I ordered to-go. Service right off the bat was great, no complaints there. As I pulled up and walked into the establishment, very clean and small. I love to see a clean place! I checked out and couldn't wait to try the food. I opened up everything and smelled amazing!! The Naan was fresh and warm. Mango Lassi super creamy and cold. Not overly sweet too. Now let's get to the best part. The flavors in the Chicken Biryani were there. It was a medium spice level for me. Not overwhelming. The chicken was falling off the bone, I topped it off with a white sauce that I was given. Some sort of yogurt that was diluted, if I'm not mistaken. When I tell you that you definitely get for what you paid for. The amount of food was incredible for the price. Without a doubt the best I've had yet. read more

Drove by this place while running errands and decided to get some food to bring home. This place was nice and clean and the service was good and fast. Got some butter chicken to go. So they packed me some rice and the actual butter chicken separately along with some delicious bread. The container of rice and butter chicken was in a nice container that they also wrapped in plastic to make sure nothing would leak. The bread was wrapped in foil. My drive was 35-40 minutes and when I got home the food was still warm and ready to eat. I was delighted and impressed. The food was delicious and spicy. The flat bread was so delicious. I will be back. read more

We were craving South Indian Food and found this restaurant on Google, so decided to try it out. Food was delicious and Service was great. The waitresses were attentive and very sweet towards my little one. Only comment I have is for the onion dosa which could have used more onions. Restaurant was busy on this Saturday night which is always a good sign with both an Indian and non Indian crowd. Will surely be back. read more

Great local place for Indian food. Portions are large and flavors are on point! Take out is usually pretty fast as well.

I am always excited to see new authentic Indian restaurants open up in Energy Corridor. The gobi 65 was crispy, spicy, and had a delicious smoky coating. Garlic naan was great as expected and of course you can't forget the butter chicken. Savory, creamy, and full of flavor... though I wish it had more chicken in it! read more

Came here for lunch on Wednesday and I just couldn't get enough of the their wonderful service, but mostly the food!! They were so accommodating to my taste buds as well, since I'm not a fan of super spicy food. I have also catered from here before and everything has been top notch. Thank you!! read more

We recently had dinner at Peacock and we can honestly say it will be our last. Our server, Ramesh, had zero customer service personality and seemed like we were more of a burden than being appreciated as customers. We ordered veggie samosas, chicken tandoori, chicken chettinad, and chicken nuggets with french fries (for our daughter). The samosas and chicken tandoori were really good, but the chettinad was very subpar and the temperature was lukewarm at best. Not much flavor and no spice at all, despite ordering it at their medium (highest?) level. We were charged for two butter naans yet ordered only one. Neither of which had butter. The chicken nuggets were a very poor excuse for a child's meal as they have been previously cooked, perhaps the day before, and just heated up in the oven. Most were hard as rocks and not edible. Perhaps other items on the menu could have given us a better impression, but in this case once here was more than enough. read more

Biryani Dum Chicken is great. Been looking for a good biryani for the last couple of months and have been disappointed on 4 other attempts at different restaurants. Either the rice is over spiced with cloves, portions are really small or meat is very little and low grade boney cuts at other places I have tried. At Peacock the rice is really well spiced and you get a fair amount as well here. Love the flavor the red sauce and raita added to the dish. Will definitely be going back for the biryani very soon. Keep up the good work! read more

Of all the Indian places I have been to near the energy corridor, this by far was the best place, and in my opinion very close to Aga's quality. Had stopped by here around lunch time on a Wednesday and got in a little early before 12PM, which was a good thing. By 12:30, the place was fully packed, which is not surprising given how good the food was. My wife and I got the tea, goat soup, masala dosa, paneer tikka masala (substituted the chicken in chicken tikka masala for paneer), and garlic naan. Everything thing we got was delicious! The only minor issue we had was the goat soup was a bit spicy, and we only got medium spice level but it was definitely way past that. Even then, we still tried to have it cause aside from the spice, it tasted so good. Most Indian places I have tried this side of town usually are good with a few things but then lack elsewhere on their menu. This place, at least for this first time we went, everything we got was solid. I think we have found the spot we will be going to for Indian food while we still live close by, and highly recommend this place to others. The only downside is that there isn't a lot of seating for how great of a place this is, so given how packed it is during lunch on a weekday, I can imagine it can get quickly packed during dinner time and on the weekends. read more

Butter chicken was delicious. But just so you are aware, if you order chicken biryani, they will ask if you want it boneless or with bones. And if you order boneless, you will get the bones anyway. Very good garlic naan though. read more

The food is great! Attentive wait staff. You get good bang for your buck. My Indian friend was pleasantly surprised and loved it too.

Three different visits, all very good! I truly enjoy their dosas' and had them two days in a row, but then one of the owners suggested that I try a curry dish and he suggested the goat Andhra. So I came back the next day and followed his suggestion and had it on a garlic naan and it was fantastic! Don't know what I want to do on my next visit, but I do know I'm going again. read more

I love this place! For reference, I am Indian and I have given two other 5 star reviews for Indian restaurants in Houston (Nirvana and Maharajah on hwy 6). I will say what seems to make the dishes here better than elsewhere is they add a little sugar where you normally wouldn't (like in the potatoes in the dosa and in the tikka masala). The chai/tea is good (not too spicy). The type of masala dosa that they serve here is the huge kind. They gave us complimentary gajar halwa one time, and it was good. One thing to note about lunch on week days is that if you come around 1, you might get seated with another party at their extra long table because everything else is taken. Mango Lassi - 5/5 Good, sweet Tea - 5/5 You need to add your own sugar Masala Dosa - 5/5 So good, with spicy and non spicy chutneys Goat soup - 4/5 Good but very spicy Aloo Tiki Chaat - 4/5 kind of mushed together taste Chana Masala -3/5 Meh, I make better chickpea curry Malai Kofta - 5/5 Great texture and taste Gajar Halwa - 4/5 Sometimes not sweet enough read more
