Tandoori Night Dhaba — Restaurant in Sugar Land

was there last night. The tandoori chicken was not fully cooked and the chicken felt it was not marinated very wells. We also ordered kadai chicken which was basically a bowl with less gravy and 4 large chunks of chicken that was either boiled separately ( with no spices) and just mixed with some quickly prepared masala gravy. The overall quality of the food was so poor that we threw the 4 chunks of chicken pieces in the trash and used the gravy to eat the 2 nans. I didnt bother telling him as it was no use.

This place is open pretty late at night and if you just stick to Kadai Chicken and rice/naan. You should be fine.

We however did try a lot of other dishes as well so I'll just write about them here....

butter chicken - too generic (if you know what I mean when I say Indian store butter chicken).

We really loved it on day 1. So got two more on the second day. And as you can see in the pic, that single plate is what was given to us saying that is a 2 plate egg bhurji. A $22 dish.....

So yeah...

Chicken Kadhai was consistently fine in all 6 days I've been there past...

Its been 4 years since I last visited this place and I have to say that the quality of the food has gone down since. I ordered the tandoori chicken and it did not taste like it used to. The goat kadai was nowhere near what its supposed to taste like. Chunks of semi cooked onions and thick slices of semi cooked jalapenos tossed together in a pre cooked sauce and pre cooked meat chunks. The garlic naan was good. Skip the samosa chat late in the evening as the samosas sit around all day. The people tending the place were warm and cordial. But it did not make up for the lack in food quality. I wish they would return to their original self when the food was prepared with dedication and it showed in the...
