    Horrible people please read my screenshot post. This establishment is a disgrace to the indo pak culture! Will never host events or attempt to order food here again. They took my money but rendered no services just disrespect and ignorance.

    I was craving chicken 65 and decided to come to eat here after work. It's a nice place and the service is super friendly and great! It seems like it's a family owned business and our waitress was very helpful with the menu. The chicken 65 here is on the sweeter side for me and it was okay. We also ordered bullet naan, chicken tikka masala, masala fries, and zeera rice. These items were phenomenal! Will be coming back to try other items!

    Food was great, portions are big enough for 2 maybe 3. I did a quick take out order and left half in my hotel room frig because I checked out the next morning. Was sorry I had to leave it behind.

    I'm surprised at the low reviews. I actually enjoyed this place. The ambiance is great. Very clean and use real dishes versus paper plates other restaurants use. The prices are slightly high but I think for the area it's pretty reasonable. We got the Peshawari karahi (goat), butter chicken, and chicken tikka, and chicken corn soup to start. The karahi was slightly salty and oily but cmon it's Karachi style! Even the naan was good. Dessert was average - lab-e-shireen (maybe a bit overpriced) but presentation was good. Overall solid experience. Location is good. A nice touch, the manager (Nusrat) came over to make sure everything was good.

    One of my biggest surprises in my recent adventures to Sugar Land was finding Naseeb, a seemingly…read moresmall and family owned Indian spot that has been around for many years. Sandwiched between a department store and an ice creamery, it blends in a little too easily with the rest of the strip mall plaza and would be easy to glance over in any other scenario. Luckily for me (#1), I stumbled across their simple, but flavorful lunch buffet and haven't looked back since. The restaurant looks small from the outside and is most definitely a modest interior with very minimal decor (#2) and a handful of tables. The family running the place is incredibly friendly and does a good job of keeping the place clean, replenishing items on the buffet and labeling the items properly. Some immediate standouts included: a wonderfully sweet and addicting mango lassi, a silky yet delicate coconut korma fish curry, a strangely addicting garlic naan that paired nicely with their butter chicken, a nice crunchy kadhi pakora, along with some veggie friendly and delicious chana masala + malai methi paneer. The mixed appetizers were a blend of fried foods, which included a not-so-mini samosa(s) and a very crunchy aloo tikki. While I wasn't in love with the roti, vegetarian spring rolls, or the goat achari, I can tell they were only slightly less appealing due to how wonderful everything else was. I'd happily give these items another shot on a future. Finishing it all off with a delightfully sweet galub jamun made for a perfect ending to the meal. $15 is a solid price in 2025, but I really just appreciate that the food was simple, fresh, and abundant with a little pretension and lots of opportunity for solo dining. ___________ (#1) Trust me, I'm the real winner.

This past visit was incredibly crowded at around 2 pm on Sunday and the staff were overwhelmed. There were enough empty tables for everyone to be seated but it still took about 10 minutes. There were maybe 15 customers waiting.

It also took a lot of effort to flag a waiter to order food. I'll probably try to come at off hours like usual next time.

We had the mysore and regular masala dosa which were both crisp to perfection with the tastiest chutneys and sambar. 10/10. I had uthappam for the first time and chose the chili cheese option. It was phenomenal. Crisp caramelized bottom with a cheese pull on top. Like a South Indian pizza. The chilis def had a kick of spice. I would eat this again for sure! So delicious. The food was incredible. The restaurant was clean (again, I went at an off time for dinner). The service was great for me at least. However, as I was leaving, there was now 6-7 families and one server. I'm sure service wasn't as great for them so it varies!

The chicken was undercooked to the point it was still red, and was obviously inedible. As if all of that weren't bad enough, it had a toxic odor to it, like plastic had been burnt in or near it, or worse. It was just inexplicably awful. Two other dishes were mostly oil and water with almost no flavor at all. Easily the worst Indian food we have ever tasted. When we called to request a refund, the owner said he could not refund any order placed online. One star is too good.

It was one of the go-to Indian…read morerestaurants couple years ago, then something happened, I can't remember what but probably closed for renovation or something, now its seems to be back in business under the name Indian Summers. The interior is really well done, the colors and design is very contemporary and tasteful. I guess it raised my bar on what to expect. It was really hot outside there's constantly excessive heat warning when you drive. Yogurt based drinks like lassi and buttermilk are kind of go to drinks at this time ( buttermilk more than lassi but I didn't see it on the menu) so we ordered lassi. In the starters section of the menu they have both Indian and Indo-chinese options and some new ones too. We got the beet corn patty chat and the Chilli Paneer. It took forever for the starters to come but when they did, it was hot and tasted great. The right crispy, the right spice, and got our hunger working. Then came the lassi- it was.. stale.. ya, that's the right word, we ordered four types and none were good. I will NoT recommend it. For main course we got jalapeño stuffed bullet naan, butter naan , roti and one North Indian thali. The sides we chose were Lasooni paneer and Veg Kolhapuri. Lovved the naans. They were fresh and soo yummy. My fav was the bullet naan. I went ahead with rice and dal from the thali as I had a sort of craving. Half way into the small bowl I developed uneasiness and that happens if there is too much soda in the food- which, am guessing m, there was. And I had hardly eaten 10 morsels. Not a good sign. For dessert, there was jamun that came with the thali and the manager also got us complimentary mango mousse, both were delicious. I would probably go again for their naans and starters.
