I was also given a cup of chai tea and a couple samples while I waited for my food. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Butter chicken - Indian Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

On a road trip from Chicago to Cincinnati and found this gem of a place on the way down. The food was made fresh and directly on the spot. The aunty there was very nice and provided us info on the dishes. We enjoyed our delicious homemade butter chicken with chapatis. We were super excited after trying the food and asked for parathas to take home. Small restaurant and no in house dining but 3 benches outside to eat. Overall wonderful experience! read more

The food was very delicious . When we got home we found out they didn't give us rice with butter chicken . I specifically asked for it . Other than that food was delicious read more

Found this place on yelp - good food & friendly staff. There are no tables - as mentioned in the other comments [which I failed to read to know this]. Luckily there are picnic tables outside and the weather was decent read more

We tried this for the first time on Dec 27 and have already been back again not even two weeks later! I really wanted some takeout Indian food for my birthday and our favorite place to dine in was further than we wanted to drive so I started searching for restaurants closer to our home. There were a few but Punjabi Dhaba was super close and had some great reviews so we gave it a try. It's takeout only and a small hole-in-the-wall type place. They don't appear to have a website or online ordering but we found some photos of their handwritten menu and my husband drove down to place an order. He got some recommendations from the owner and some patrons while he was there and we ended up with two types of parathas, chicken Tikka masala, and paneer masala. He did have a decent wait, but oh was it worth it! Everything was amazing and since it was so close, it was still hot when he got back home. Last night we had no groceries and decided to order again. This time we called ahead and got parathas and Tikka masala again, plus we tried saag paneer, which my husband sampled during his wait last time. Our food was ready in the expected amount of time, checkout was quick, and the employee I met was friendly. Our meal turned out great again (and I remembered to take a photo this time) and we had enough for some leftovers. This might be our new fave for any takeout in the Franklin township area and we highly recommend! read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Plain paratha, paneer paratha, chicken Tikka masala, and saag paneer. Plus good size portions of rice. - Indian Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

We found this place on our way to Chicago from Kentucky. It's very close to the highway so the detour wasn't much. We got gobi and paneer paratha, paneer pakoda and chicken kababs. The paneer paratha and paneer pakoda were mind-blowing! Reminded me of dhaba food on the Delhi-Punjab highway! My husband really liked the gobi paratha, it was evidently made from scratch and was made fresh. We loved the green chutney that came with the pakoras and it was nice to have fresh dahi with the parathas. The complimentary chai we were given while waiting for our food also tasted pretty good! This is a carry out restaurant run by an Indian originated couple. The gentleman was very social and chatted with us while the lady was whipping out our amazing hot food. I'm certainly coming back for the chai-paratha! read more

Hopped in en route to Chicago from Bowling Green. The paneer pakora was very good and fresh. Samosa was also good. Parathas (gobi and paneer) were good and it comes with yogurt. Chapati was soft and fresh, needed some more salt. Mango lassi was not that good. Masala chai was not good but seems they give it free to every customer. Shahi paneer was average, does come with rice which is nice. Customer service is exceptionally good. Overall not a bad one, would go here for the parathas for sure. read more

Stopped in lastnight. The owners were great, gave us free chai tea, which was delicious. All the food came out in good timing. Got it for a dinner party and everyone absolutely loved it. We will definitely be coming back! read more

This place might not have the ambiance but it definitely has the TASTE. Oh so delicious and authentic taste. Had such good stuffed parantha after a very long time. Worth what we paid for. Prices are very reasonable for everything and quantity and quality are on point. Ran by husband and wife only so be patient with them (they don't take long btw unless packed busy of course). No seating inside, just couple picnic tables outside. So carryout only. Definitely coming back to hog more on some delicious food. read more

Punjabi Dhaba - Veggie parantha - Indian Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I pretty regularly order take out from here, and it is consistently delicious. Make sure to call it in before you go, because they make everything to order; it's usually ready really quickly though. I've tried quite a few of the vegetarian meals from here, and I'll say I don't think you can go wrong. But, every time I go, I'll always order Malai Kofta, because it is my favorite. Also in this picture are the Aloo Mutter and a Paneer Paratha (very much recommend both!). Both in the picture are the 16oz, which is the smaller size. Lastly, love the Chai. Would recommend to anyone to get takeout from here!! read more

As a note, this business is cash, and take out only: I stopped in here a couple of months ago and got some chicken tikka for dinner. The food tasted good, and there was a lot of it. It could use a little more heat, but I'm not complaining. The owners are incredibly nice and even gave me a rose lassi to try since it was my first visit.. Will be back! read more

If you want home cooked Punjabi meal served with warmth, love and affection, this is the place to be. We tried Aloo parantha, plain parantha, fulka, saag and chaa. I am so happy I did. It tastes exactly like how punjabi food should taste like. The owners are such wonderful people. Would surely recommend to anyone who's in the area. P.S. ask for their green chutney read more

As mentioned last time I tried their Sarso da Saag and it was yum too. So if you crave for Punjabi taste stop by and say hello to this local couple owned business. And this time when I was waiting and it was hot outside uncle ji offered mango lassi . Next time order that too. read more

The goat curry was fantastic. I look forward to going back so I can try some more of their dishes. The owner was very nice and I didn't have to wait very long for my food. I thought that the prices were fair and portion sizes were good. I highly recommend others to give this place a shot read more

Good evening. I had the most delicious food ever since being in Delhi. It is authentic, delicious, extremely flavorful! The owner and his wife worked together and everything was made to order. We had a delicious samosa chat (perfectly cooked chickpeas, delicious samosas, all the spices, chutney etc.), we had complimentary chai while we ate on the outside bench area. We also ordered potato-spinach (aalo-palak), black lintels (Dal Makhni), butter chicken and Indian flat bread (rotis) - it all had a taste of home! Absolutely delicious and authentic food. We can't wait to go back! read more

Very good Indian food!! Tasted delicious and authentic! Samosas are sooooo good too! Must try! Hidden gem

Great food call if you are headed there. They cook on spot so you need some time if you are in a hurry. We waited for our food as we didn't know and it was our first time. It was a chance discovery but the wait was well worth it we ordered chicken tikka masala, paneer makhni, Samosa chat, paratahas , tea, mango lassi . Everything was great, very tasty and freshly made. do order ahead if you are in a rush you won't regret it. The owner was kind and friendly must Visit if you are nearby - even if charging your vehicle at the nearby Tesla supercharger. we would definitely recommend There are benches outside if you want to eat it there otherwise you can order take out read more

We looked this place up. Saw high reviews and made our choice. It had mentioned you could dine in, but I think for just when it's nice outside. There are a couple seats inside to sit and wait for your order because the food is whipped up all fresh. The owner is very personable. He offered us a cup of Chai Tea while we waited and I must say it was the best I have ever tried. It smelled so good inside. The food is so good and the spices are well balanced and not overwheling. I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and hubby ordered the Curry Chicken slightly hot and it was not too hot for me to eat (I'm a heat light weight). We actually mixed the two together and it was heavenly. You could tell it was fresh rice and homemade Naan as well. So good. I noticed they offered vegetarian options, though I am not well versed on many Indian Food options. It was great experience and we look forward to our next visit. read more

The food was just ok for the Indian palate, but it was too expensive for what you get.

Goat curry I come here almost every week , good people and very delicious food Much recommend read more

I went back for more the next day and had goat curry and egg bhurji. I can't wait to go back again:). Yummy food...

Authentic stuffed paratha I ever had in USA. Very few people in USA (definitely all the North Indians) will be able to relate to the taste.

We were craving Indian food recently and this was the nearest place and we had heard good things from the Irvington Facebook group. It was a little hard to read the menu online so I popped in to place an order. We were having dinner guests who were a little risk adverse with new food so I asked the owner for some recommendations. He hooked us up with 3 dishes and some sides that were amazing. This place was as good as anything we've had on West 38th Street. We'll definitely be back soon. I only wish they had a better online presence. Five stars still. read more

The food is delicious. It is take out only. Make sure to order ahead. They do a really good job packing it up for the drive home.

A hidden gem ! The best Indian food in Indy . Their Chicken Tikka Masala is my favorite

This place is amazing and delicious. The chai is delicious. The dal and goat are to die for. My new weekly stop, and the best place to get food on the south side read more
