Preeta’s Kitchen is a true hidden gem tucked inside an Indian grocery store — the very definition of a hole-in-the-wall, but don’t let appearances fool you. Every time I visit, Mrs. Preeta herself comes out to greet me by name, adding a personal, homely touch that you just don’t find elsewhere.
The food here feels like it’s straight from a real Indian home kitchen — comforting, fresh, and made with love. Unlike most places in Las Vegas that serve Americanized versions of Indian food (think chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, mango lassi — things hardly anyone actually eats daily in India), Preeta’s Kitchen stays authentic. They serve proper tava rotis, simple but flavorful curries and lentils, and healthy homemade-style meals without an overload of oil, butter, or heavy creams — which means I can enjoy my lunch guilt-free almost every day.
Their $10 plate is an absolute steal — one vegetable serving, one meat serving, 2 fresh tava rotis, rice, and a small salad or yogurt. It’s hearty, balanced, and real value for money. They do make the food slightly less spicy to cater to everyone, but whenever I ask for extra spice to satisfy my true Indian (chatori) taste buds, they always deliver perfectly.
And if you love chaats, don’t miss their papdi chaat — hands down the best I’ve found in all of Vegas.
In short, Preeta’s Kitchen brings the flavors of a real Indian home to your plate, and it’s a place I’ll keep going back to...
Read moreIf I could give negative stars, I would. I’ve been to dozens of Indian restaurants across the US, from mom-and-pop joints to fancy spots. But this one? Easily the worst.
We ordered paratha, Amritsari kulcha, and vada pav — sounds like comfort food, right? Five minutes later (yes, five), the food arrived. I looked at the plate and immediately knew something was fishy. Actually, not fishy — frozen.
The so-called paratha was one of those frozen ones from a cheap deep packet, and even that they couldn’t heat properly — edges were still uncooked. Amritsari kulcha? that was just a fancier frozen paratha with attitude. And the vada pav? Hawaiian roll, frozen aloo patty, and zero chutney. It was like someone Googled “Indian burger” and gave up halfway.
I gave polite feedback — didn’t ask for a refund, didn’t cause a scene. But the lady at the counter went full Doordarshan drama mode. Started yelling, saying she learned cooking in Punjab. Honestly, even a first-year engineering student on a hostel stove can tell the difference between a paratha and a kulcha. She clearly couldn’t.
This place isn’t just a disappointment — it’s an insult to Indian food and anyone who grew up eating paratha and vada pav on the streets of India. Save your money and...
Read moreAbsolutely loved this little gem of a restaurant or you can say a lil hole in the wall place inside a store! But they are the best, right!
If you're craving authentic, home-style Indian food that reminds you of your mom’s kitchen, this is the place to be. The food is delicious, fresh, and cooked with love — not too heavy or oily, just like you’d get at home.
Special mention to the delectable kadhi chawal — perfectly tangy, comforting, and soul-satisfying — and the gobi parathas, which are crisp on the outside, generously stuffed, and served with just the right accompaniments.
What really sets this place apart is the owner — a warm, friendly lady who genuinely cares about her customers. She takes the time to understand your taste preferences and customizes the food to suit your palate. The service is quick, the prices are very reasonable, and the whole experience feels like dining with family.
