We ordered onion kulcha (very dry) and vegetable samosa. I'm not sure what herb they use in these, but it tasted like eating perfume. For mains we ordered malai kofta, Chicken Shahi Korma, and Saagwala chicken. The sauce of the malai kofta was good, but the balls were so dry. The chicken used in both dishes was thigh meat. Every single bite was full of fat. I tried to eat a few pieces and gave up. We ordered medium spice for the chicken dishes and it tasted like there was barely any spice. Portions were very small. Super disappointed with this meal. Will not order from here again.

Somehow these guys didn't make it onto the list until recently. Don't make our mistake. While service is a bit spotty and the food may take a little longer to come out - the food is well worth a little extra wait. Outstanding on every level. A true surprise. Prices are more than fair. Portions are above average. On the Flavor scale these guys nailed it - 10 out of 10. We have numerous indian restaurants near us - so even with lots to choose from i'd put these guys right up there with Manan's and other local standouts. Might have been the first time for us - but most definitely will not be the last.

Husband and I were looking for a place for dinner on a Friday night and found this place close by…read more Opened since April 2024, the restaurant seems to be in a re-purposed house near Route 113. We were seated in the dining area, which was cozy, not sure if they had additional seating elsewhere since I did see stairs leading upstairs. We ordered butter chicken wings, palak paneer, Hyderabadi Mutton Dum Biryani and some garlic naan, all mild in spice level. The food came out pretty fast, which was a plus since we were both hungry from a long day. Everything tasted great, and the spice level was just right for us. Though not many patrons dining in at the time, they had quite a few to-go orders and pickups while we were there. Would definitely go back again.

You either love of hate the particular restaurant's version. I loved South Avenue's take on everything I ate. Quite possibly the best samosas and pakoras I've ever eaten. Sauces were beyond fresh. Delightful. Chana Masala quite nice. But the saag with shrimp? Unbelievable. Harleen and Ranjit (I hope I got the husband's name right!) run an excellent restaurant. Top notch service and food. Go.

I love when this happens…read more With no agenda, we ended up in West Chester PA (vs Westchester NY.) A cute town with an inordinate number of restaurants, we peered into windows and read menus. "The Mediterranean Restaurant" sparked interest. Infusing Lebanese and Italian cuisines, they garnered great reviews. Also BYOB. After running to Carlinos for a bottle of red, we took our chances at Mediterranean without a reservation. (Do indeed make one if you come for dinner.) I chatted with the couple across from us. "This is the best restaurant in West Chester," the fellow said. They live here and have been to them all. We started with what's called a Maza Platter: customer's choice of four appetizers. I selected feta & olives, tabouli, hummus and baba ghanoush. Delish!! (Unlike my husband, I wasn't a fan of feta, but this feta was infinitely better than anything I've had before.) The spreads are made inhouse. The cheese isn't. T raved about the lamb kabob, which was likely grilled. I in turn recommend their falafel encrusted chicken. Chef isn't afraid to spice things up and everything was noticeably fresh. Even the sides were stand-out. The aforementioned couple recommended Mediteranean's apple pie for dessert, a seemingly odd choice. They said it's baked in the restaurant's adjoining bakery. Since they ran out of ice cream -- what's pie if it's not a la mode?! -- T and I shared baklava. Two thumbs up. Homemade, not saturated in syrup. I'd like to give a shoutout to Jason, our delightful and efficient server. He does the restaurant proud. Note that Mediterranean has been in West Chester for 29 years. (That's a virtual lifetime in the restaurant world!) Prices we thought reasonable, and portions generous.

The pitas are cold and tasted worse than what you can get at Giant. Sautéed mushrooms are flavorless and in a mushroom water. Meat pie tasted like unseasoned, old meat with tomatoes. The entrees weren't any better. Ran out of beef. Not sure how one does that on a day with like 3 tables. Tried the special soup, which we sent back. The bolognese was gross. Tasted sort of like Chef Boyardee, but worse. The had to argue with the "chef" to even take it off the tab. She suggested we'd be better off eating at home. We agree. McDonald's would have been a step up. It seems like they just don't have any spices or salt in that kitchen. Plus the servers would just disappear for ages. It appeared that this was our server's first job in food service. Service was rather slow. And hour in, no entrées. It's in an hold house, which was cute. Most tables are upstairs. If you want Mediterranean food, you'd be better off cooking something from the Betty Crocker cookbook.

We went in without knowing what to expect, but the service and the excellent food spoke for itself! Being a lover of Indian food, I've tried countless places over the years--but this one truly stands out. Every dish we ordered was packed with authentic flavor, clearly made with fresh ingredients and a lot of care. The spices were perfectly balanced--fragrant without being overpowering--and the heat level was just right. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive without being intrusive, and they gladly offered recommendations based on our preferences. The ambiance may be simple, but it creates a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger over your meal. Highlights for us included the kasha I chicken (forgot the exact name) which was rich and creamy with just the right tang, and the tandoori platter, which was smoky, tender, and perfectly charred. This place is a hidden gem and a must-visit for anyone craving honest, delicious Indian cuisine. We'll definitely be back--and next time, we're bringing friends.
