Happened to go to this restaurant because of a Groupon that I had. It was a 50 min ride for our party of 3 but as it turned out was worth it. You should note that the directions through the Groupon app. are wrong. Just enter the name of the restaurant in Waze or Google Maps. Location: in a strip mall with ample parking in a well lit lot. Ambience: large seating area with well spaced booths and tables. Place is clean. There are table cloths, proper silverware and dinner plates. The single wait staff was friendly, knew the menu and attentive The food: honestly some of the best we have had in a long time. We ordered the Chicken Chilly Mommos as a shared starter- was served on a sizzling, steamy hot cast iron pan. The Mommos are to die for. Have never had anything this tasty in an appetizer before. Had to talk to the owner-Chef. Found out the dish is his original creation and no one in Houston serves it this style. For our mains we had the Chicken Hariyali- morsels of chicken marinated in a spinach cream marinade then grilled. Tender, mouth watering and tingles the taste buds with a burst of multiple flavors. Accompanying this we had the Dal Makhani and a Chicken Kadhai. All were spiced just right and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was so good we ordered an additional 3 entrees to go. Portion sizes are good and prices are reasonable. This mini feast could end only one way- with a steaming mug of Masala Chai. Highly recommend this restaurant. Will definitely be back- with my entire family. Disclaimer- A copy of this review will be posted...
Read moreMy wife & I came here for dinner Saturday, Jan 27. We waited a few moments before being seated, but service was friendly. The menu has a number of options, but we never waited long for anything to be served.
We ordered Chicken momo jhol, which were spiced chicken dumplings in a creamy broth. We ordered them Medium spicy, which for us was doable, but we did sweat. Your mileage may vary. We also had bullet naan, which is bread filled with onions & green Chile's. It was spicy, but not too much. Then we ordered Samosa chaat, which is a fried dumpling filled with spiced potato, chopped up & topped with chickpeas, tomato, red onion, tamarind sauce, a green sauce, and yogurt.
Everything was delicious. The staff kept us topped up with iced tea, and brought raita when the spice got to us. (Raita is a sauce made of yogurt and cucumber; it's very cooling.) We liked everything so much, we got an order of peshwari naan to go and devoured it at home. (Peshwari naan is bread stuffed with chopped nuts & dried fruits; sweet, but not too sweet.)
Again, the service was great, the food was delicious, and we got out of there for $40-ish total, including a tip. They offer a lunch buffet on Friday & Saturday, which we're already planning on trying. Love...
Read moreWhat an amazing place! It's the best Navratan Korma I've ever had! In picture: Saag Paneer, Navratan Korma, and Matar Paneer. I'm not usually a fan of saag paneer, but I happily shared with friends. Navratan Korma is the perfect blend of EVERYTHING. Spice choices, spice level, creamy, vegetables cooked perfectly (not too crisp, not mushy, flavorful without taking over the dish). Matar Paneer was spicy, again, such a nice balance of flavors and textures. Also had the Garlic Naan. Fresh, soft, flavorful and cooked to perfection. In the past I have had it delivered with GrubHub, or ordered directly and picked up in person. To-Go was always wonderful, but it's even better in person. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Owner / chef came out and visited with us personally. I brought two friends who had not been here before and they're already planning to...
