House of Curry — Restaurant in Damascus

Ordered veg pakoras, lasuni gobhi, fried rice, and garlic naan and palak paneer.

The pakoras were undercooked inside, and the fried rice was a complete letdown—burnt frozen vegetables tossed with soy sauce and rice, lacking any real flavor or freshness. It didn’t resemble authentic fried rice at all. As for the garlic naan, avoid ordering any Indian bread here unless you’re looking for a jaw workout—the texture was rubbery and hard.

I’ve ordered from this place three times, hoping it might improve, but it’s consistently disappointing. It’s frustrating to see such poor quality from a new restaurant. There seems to be zero effort from the management to ensure fresh, well-prepared food. Stop serving subpar dishes under the label of Indian cuisine at such high prices. What a waste of money.

Reply to Owner’s response: i can vouch I have ordered from your menu and please check Uber Eats order because that was the platform I used. I am not jobless to post reviews if I have not ordered. Rest assured.

I appreciate you taking criticism...

I am SO happy that a great Indian/Nepalese restaurant finally opened up in this area. I've been here a few times already and tried several of their non vegetarian dishes.

Very unlike most Indian restaurants in the area which serve south Indian flavored non South Indian dishes. This Nepalese restaurant...

First time here, not overly familiar with Indian cuisine. I like it, just don’t eat it enough to know what’s what. The menu was extensive to the point of being overwhelming. I ordered a skewer sampler platter and when delivered, asked the server what each item was on my plate. I knew what was supposed to be on the plate, just not which item was what specifically. The waiter could not identify the meats served, and with the spices etc., I couldn’t always tell what type of meat I was eating. Some things I liked better than others; not knowing what each one was means it’ll be a guessing game, again, when/if I return. At the time, they didn’t have an alcohol license. Atmosphere was fine - not too loud or crowded. It was an...
