Kumari Kitchen — Restaurant in Doraville

Can't believe I'm just now discovering this place! Seriously delicious, fresh, reasonably priced Indian food! Best palak paneer l've ever had. Like an explosion of flavors. Also really enjoyed Chana masala, samosas, chicken tikka masala. Got the chicken 65 and it was my least fave but still good, and an enormous portion. Those dessert donut-like milk balls in syrup were yummy as well.

Equally as delightful is the super-kind lady owner (I assume Kumari?). She's like the loving Indian grandmother I never knew l needed... gave me so many samples of yummy things- you can tell she genuinely loves feeding people her delicious food. Her English is functional but others there don't speak much, so keep the questions simple. I tried ordering with an older gentleman over the phone at first and he eventually just handed the phone over to Kumari. Didn't see a health score and for anyone super squeamish about cooks handling food with hands, just a heads up.

The restaurant was hot and as others have said, mainly a takeout / catering spot, with just a few dark tables. So not sure we'd dine in here. But we'll be back very soon to takeout the delicious food! I'm still thinking about...

Food was great and they gave me a lot of it (Chicken 65). However, I was disappointed that they didn't make a chicken 65 biryani. Oh well.

When I was placing my order, the woman behind the counter spoke very little English. Thankfully an older man who just happened to be there helped with translation.

Like someone else pointed out, there is indoor seating but it's not clear if it's used by anyone other than the employees. I just got mine to go.

The atmosphere could definitely use some work. Unfortunately it's pretty messy.

They gave me a little box with a few fried donut-shaped foods that the woman referred to as a snack. Free of charge. That was very nice. After googling it, it's called Vada.

The food portion was very generous. However, when the cook brought me my food and wrapped it up for me, for some reason I had to bag it up myself. After he handed me my food, he gestured to a fold-out table behind me with plastic grocery bags haphazardly scattered across it. I put my food in one and went...

I have been coming to Kumari kitchen since 2008. I tend to order goodies like mutton curry, butter chicken, chicken 65, and mutton biryani.

It has always been excellent and Kumari often lets me try other things I've never had which are always a treat. I have been driving from Southwest Cobb just to get that food for over a decade because it's so good.

For about $100 I get food that I can eat on for a week and with amazing variety because of Kumari.

This place blows away any other to-go Indian place I've ever been to because of the quality of the food and how much you get for the money. It is a sensational value for such an...
