Assad Cafe Restaurant and Mini Mart — Restaurant in Manila

Really good Indian food in Manila, and not expensive also. The mutton biryani is very delicious — reminds me of the biryani I had in Little India in Singapore. The long grains of basmati rice are flavored well with Indian curry and spices. It’s not too spicy as well — just enough to tickle the tastebuds; no water needed after. The samosas are packed and tasty, too! As for the naan… it’s bland. It pairs well with the buttered chicken and the chickpeas, but… it’s not their forte. The lassi shake is good! (My wife isn’t a fan, though.) Thick, with a touch of lemon flavor, and a bit yeasty/cheesy. Now, this restaurant has very plain ambiance. It’s got aircon, but no sounds and with wood chairs. The place and the utensils are all clean. Oh, and parking here is very challenging. Either bring a small car or bring your best parking skills. Or commute going here. We ordered a lot, yet our bill was Php1,500 (for three… but the food was good for five, really). Solid value for money. And the food mart downstairs has very affordable spices! Highly...

Casual dining that serves authentic Indian Cuisine , some of Chinese and Korean dishes. Spicy Chicken is delicately cooked with its chili spices on top of it. Fish fillet with brocoli is a good choice for a first timer specially if you are not that familiar with the menu. I also tried their korean beef stew but it was not like what I've expected it to taste like it was more of a teriyaki taste. Meals are expensive but they serve generously. I love visiting the mini mart, I love the taste of the samosa (indian empanada) and lassi (yoghurt drink) and the chapati (indian bread).. here you can find different indian spices and rice grains and everything an Indian individual needs. It's more of an Indian grocery, but I noticed that more chinese people drop here and buy spices. I would love to stop by here whenever...

I have heard about this restaurant alot but today was my first time to visit.

Observation: Not enough signage direction to restaurant access to restaurant was 90% blocked by bags of rice or other dry foods. elevator is not working Assad might have alot spare scented sticks but it doesn't mean you light it in restaurant. It was so bad smell, Assad must consider. many of menu items are not available timing of restaurant is not clear. As one waiter said 930am to 630pm and other said 10am to 630 last order. -Assad must consider parking, as local guys are still guiding customers to park and it doesn't suits. menu pricing are not consistent, green menu card pricing vary from other menu card for...
