Dhonno Taste of Bangladesh — Restaurant in Sterling

I very rarely write reviews on Google, but this place deserves this one. Easy 5 stars.

I found an ad for this place in my apartment door a couple months back. Decided to finally try it tonight. Ordered (via Uber Eats) a lamb gyro over rice ($7.99) and the grilled chicken sandwich ($5.99). Let me tell you right now, this place gives you more than what you paid for.

The first thing I noticed was the generous portions of the things I actually paid for. Lots of meat, rice, and sauce. And the chicken sandwich was huge, I'm talking the size of 2 McChickens. And they threw in a Coke for free. $15 goes a long way at this place.

Equally as important, the food was fantastic. The gyro meat was flavorful and soft, the sauce was savory and neither too runny nor too thick, and the rice was delicious and perfectly cooked. The chicken sandwich was also fantastic. The bun was light and fluffy, the chicken was tender and well seasoned, and there was just enough sauce to add a good amount of flavor to the sandwich without making the bun soggy.

The food was also carefully packaged and everything was packaged in such a way that no textures blended before you dug in. An odd thing to mention in a review, I know, but it really just goes to show that this place really does care about the food they serve you.

Awesome place. Will definitely be...

I’ll give three stars because the food is good, but idk what’s going on behind the counter and in the kitchen because service is slow. This isn’t the first time it happened. Today, I put in an order for chicken tenders, to be picked up at 6:30. Theres a line, the person is making excuses and that person is working the register and running back and making the food?? I get it’s a small mom and pop restaurant and it is Ramadan but as I said, this isn’t the first time. I get it being slow for people who walked in and are ordering. But for people who ordered ahead for a specific time? It should be ready to go. And when you’re inconvenienced it is courteously to do something like offer a discount, offer a free item, etc. people should look for or expect discounts but in this case, I think it’s fair that they do it. Food is good, but they need to work out doing...

Whenever I go to a Bangladeshi restaurant, I try to keep my expectations low, and it has never let me down. In the United States, I have yet to discover a fantastic Bangladeshi restaurant.

This restaurant's food was delicious. However, I have a serious problem with deceptive advertising.

They don't have current pricing on the board or menu, and they don't have it online either. Some of the items we ordered had incorrect names. They call chicken biriyani Morog Pulau, which is a incorrect. Kalavuna was the name given to the normal beef dopeyaja. That's like calling the moon the Northstar!

We went to the store to check out some specific food items pet menu, and while they were tasty, they were not what we expected.

Also, food isn't exactly inexpensive.

In summary, this is a tiny Desi restaurant with a lot of room...
