    Paneer Biryani
    Sundeep I.

    Tried paneer biryani at this restaurant for the first time. After specifically requesting to add more paneer I got exactly four pieces of paneer added to a vegetable biryani. It was a pickup so no much interaction other than what I requested which wasn't fulfilled. Ambiance is just ok. Despite all these whatever the vegetable biryani I got was pretty good.

    My little sister and I decided to try out the India kitchen and we are so ecstatic that we did. I ordered the chicken tikka masala and she ordered a vegetarian dish and both were spectacular, the rice was tender and fluffy and the garlic naan is a must. If you're looking for a different kind of cuisine, please try this place. It is so worth it. They also have lunch specials. Everyone there was so extremely kind and the food was amazing.

    Chicken Koorma and Chicken Tikka Masala and a veggie samosa
    Izzy O.

    Ordered India Kitchen on DoorDash the other day and was really impressed. They had a deal with DoorDash so we got a lot of food for a really reasonable price. The samosas were big and had a lot of filling, I really enjoyed them. We also got the Gulab Jamun, chicken koorma, and chicken tikka masala. I liked the Koorma, it was slightly sweet and had a really good flavor. The tikka masala was also delicious though. Last, I'm glad I tried the Gulab Jamun, I haven't had anything like that before and it had a good flavor.

    Butter chicken?
    Jennifer E.

    This small restaurant has about four tables and offers counter service. I'm giving it four stars mainly because of the friendly customer service. When I arrived, a couple of women ordered dine-in, and their food looked great. I asked the counter server what they had, and he offered me a taste of the Chicken Pakora. It was hot and fresh, and I enjoyed it. That said, my experience with the butter chicken was disappointing. When I got it home, it smelled good but looked off. For $19, the portion was small, about the size of a to-go soup cup. It was brown with green specks, and I think I might have received the wrong order. I decided to try it anyway, but the chicken was cool in the middle and dry. The rice was lukewarm and dry as well. I could only eat one piece of chicken because it didn't taste fresh. It seemed like it had been made hours earlier and just reheated. The sauce wasn't great either. Overall, it was an unpleasant dish (see photo). I might give them another shot, but I'd stick to dining in next time.

    That's all I have to say. The butter chicken and the garlic naan bread is sooooooo good

    Butter Chicken and Garlic Naan

    This is a small cute little spot. I stopped by after a shift but the lunch deals look great! They only do dine-in for the lunch deals and I only get half hour. The butter chicken was good not the best I've had and the garlic naan was very good and fresh. I would definitely go back to explore the rest of the menu.

    FYI that in the weekend they don't have lunch specials. I had goat dum biriyani for it was delicious, but unfortunately the goat was still chewy. This restaurant is a small business family owned which is great. I love that the family were working together in this restaurant either taking orders, preparing the food and clean the tables. I heard kids giggling in the background, it's remind me of the old days. Thank you for your delicious meal and happy new year!

    Mushy Gobi Manchurian
    Tricia P.

    I ordered for delivery. It definitely arrived cold and had been sitting around for a while. But despite that, the Gobi Manchurian tasted like a ball of flour. It was soggy and soft and mushy. . The dal was OK, although cold. And the dosa was soggy, wrapped up and wrinkled, fell apart when I opened it and was cold. They might be better in person, but the flavor once I had to heat it up in the microwave still wasn't much. I'm sad as I truly love Indian food, but this was meh. Ps: ordered at 5pm Was estimated delivery of 6:30. Came at 7:20pm

We…read morereally love Indian food and have tried other places, but none of them do it like this location. Every time we come, we end up ordering the same thing because it is just that good. We even joked about trying something new, but of course we ordered our usual again but we recently found out they have a buffet on Sundays, which is really nice if you want to try different dishes or expand your palate! The garlic naan is always a favorite, super savory and hard to stop eating. You can also choose the spice level for the masala. We finally tried the spiciest level, and I would say to be careful with that one. We would recommend medium instead. We are Hispanic and even for us the spiciest level was a little intense on our gastrointestinal system, but we still ate everything. If you want authentic Indian food with great spices, this is the place to go. It is usually pretty empty when we visit, which surprises us because the food is so good. We hope this place gets longer waits and we will definitely be eating here many more times.

    This is a neat family establishment. The mother is the chef and Khadija (forgive me if I botched…read morethe spelling) is the daughter and our server. They were so welcoming. I am still learning about middle eastern cuisine so the chef described some entrees. I told her about a Pakistani dish I really enjoyed and she made me a similar chicken dish that isn't even on the menu! What I love about middle eastern food is that it is so fragrant and a full scale sensory overload. It looks, smells and tastes all at once. Khadija was adorable and very outgoing. I was super impressed by the whole vibe. All of the other patrons were probably far more familiar with the cuisine, but we felt welcome and were so honored that they presented something off the menu for me. I plan to try the regular menu dishes next time. The naan is outstanding, too.

Our server was probably one of the worst servers I have ever had. Zero personality and literally never said one word to us. Several to go orders and Uber Eats people came in and out while we waited about 10 minutes. We finally told the man at the front desk that we needed to order and get some drinks. Server came over with his notepad and looked at us to take orders, didn't say a word. When he brought the dishes, a few minutes later, he literally plopped all of them in one spot in the table without making any attempt to remember which dish went to which person. Very odd behavior The dishes on the menu are clearly marked vegetarian, vegan or contains meat. We had two dishes that were supposed to be vegan, one was a saag dish which they had placed butter over the top of. It looked delicious to everyone, but the vegans who could not eat it. When we pointed it out, they made no attempt to offer us another dish and just said oh yes, that's ghee (clarified butter) we said the menu indicated it was vegan, but again no response. The two vegans at our table just decided rather than argue, they will share the rice dish, which was also indicated as vegan. As they started to eat it, they realized there were several pieces of paneer in it. I really hope this was a one off because this was one of my favorite places to eat Indian food. Very very disappointing and no accommodation for the inedible dishes.

I was browsing Uber Eats for Mediterranean food when I found Golden and realized they had something that looks an awful lot like Khachapuri (here it's on the menu as Aldo). So I abandoned my plans of delivery food and promptly made my way in to eat.

The foul is exceptionally garlicky. Perfectly so. My partner said the hummus was his favorite thing we ordered, and he's a pretty discerning dude! The Aldo was excellent. The grape leaves came out hot, which surprised me, but again - solid! Flatbread? Stellar. Maybe even better the next day. The kufta didn't particularly excite me, but I wasn't the one who ordered it, and my partner was happy. My shawarma wrap? Oh boy, that garlic sauce. They even perfectly portion the innards so your pickles aren't all stuck to one side and the fries to the other. You can have pickles in almost every bite! We also got several desserts to take home. I haven't sampled them yet, but the hazelnut baklava in particular intrigues me. Casual ambiance. Options for booths or tables, inside or outside.
