    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.

    Butter Chicken & Rice
    Adriana A.

    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!

    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!

    Chettinad curry, butter chicken, Paneer Pakoda, and garlic naan

    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!

    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.

    Chana Masala and Garlic Naan
    Michelle Y.

    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.

    Out usual place is temporary closed so we found this place on a whim. The inside is small but very family oriented! We were a huge party but they were able to sit us right away. The food was delicious! Mango lassi was perfect The garlic naan had flavor Samosas delicious The chicken lollipops were really good! Butter chicken was goo And I tried a new sauce it was also very good Idk if it will replace my usual space but it will be a nice option.

    Mango Lassi

    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.

    Aloo Gobi Masala and Chicken Tikka Masala

    We sampled a wide variety of food. We had the vegetable samosas for an appetizer delicious for the entrée. We had chicken, tiki masala. The Aloo Gobi Masala and Chana Masala plain man and the garlic man everything was delicious

    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.

    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.

    We ain't in Queens anymore…read more For years, I've eaten on Shah's all around the borough, initially out in Ozone Park and Briarwood before finding a real audience in Sunnyside. Now that they've sufficiently blown up around NYC, I was a bit shocked (and excited) to see them finally come to H-Town. What's the verdict? It's good enough to pass muster for NY standards (#1), is open super late, and will likely be my go-to Halal food for the foreseeable future. Since I've only had it in cart form, I'm still a buggin over the fact it's become a franchise. It's similar to my shock of eating Halal Guys at a store for the first time. The digs feel as foreign (prices, large, clean and bright interior) as it does familiar (taste, logo, etc.). Even though I had a laugh seeing the wall photo-mural of a Shah's cart in Times Square, I did appreciate the nod to Ozone Park with the 121st & Liberty street signs. The chicken + lamb combo platter ($12) is and always will be the winner. The lamb had the same kind of seasoning that most Halal spots out here try to replicate but can never get right. The rice was fluffy, and the white sauce was easily the highlight. I can understand why they've decided to bottle it up and sell it as liquid gold. It makes every meal better. Kofta ($12) and chapli ($13) are rarely my favorites, but I knew I had both in platter form. The addition of adding chickpeas and these other salads is not something I'm used to from the carts (#2) but I loved the fact it was drowned in the white sauce with a dash of hot sauce. The latter is supposedly extremely hot, but I didn't find it that spicy. While I have to say the cheeseburger was a bit of a disappointment (overly bready, thin patty), the pakora chips and french fries were fabulous. They were perfectly seasoned, had a nice crisp, and frankly would be an excellent, gut-busting addition to any platter. I don't love the extra charge, but I hope they remain consistent with it. This store location in Westchase along Westheimer is an up and coming part of town. There are numerous Middle Eastern businesses in the adjacent area, along with an abundance of parking spots and a good amount of late night activity. Service was friendly but I do hope they keep their standards up. As time goes on, I'm 100% convinced this will be a destination for the many late night meal seekers and fans of NY nostaligia. __________ (#1) Which automatically supersedes a lot of the ones here in Houston. Just keeping it real. (#2) Is the chickpeas a Houston thing? Genuinely curious.

This is a nicely sized spot next to the Jusgo plaza in Houston Chinatown, so plenty of parking and also food options. It's tucked in a corner but should not be written off. Its a pretty casual sitdown restaurant and we were welcomed and sat pretty quickly on a Saturday around 8:30PM. We were provided menus and started ordering everything that sounded good (within reason for 2, sorta). We ended up getting the Uyghur polo with lamb shank, Uyghur goshnaan, korma chop, garlic cucumbers, mint tea, and a yogurt for dessert. This was more than enough food for 2 but I wanted to try a bunch and this is me holding back. The Uyghur goshnaan was very crispy and the filling was flavorful and juicy, good lamb flavor and nice spices. The Uyghur polo with lamb shank was great and the pilaf had a nice sweetness with raisins that cut through some of the fatty richness of the lamb. The korma chop was also super flavorful with a nice savory sauce and noodled with an excellent texture, very QQ. I don't usually order cucumbers at Asian restaurants cause I can make a cucumber salad pretty easily at home but the one here was very good. Excellent refreshing crunch and garlic flavor to go with all the other dishes. The mint tea was also nice to wash down the mountains of food I was inhaling. I also enjoyed the yogurt, it's a thicker yogurt like a Greek yogurt and topped with honey and raisins. Again, a nice sweet/tart treat that didn't feel too heavy after everything else. I definitely need to come back as I didn't even get my big plate chicken but it'll be hard to choose between all the options. I def recommend this spot, esp if you like lamb as all the dishes we had were excellent and priced fairly for the portion and current economic situation.
