“ Incredible Indian food here and I would easily come back the next time I’m in Philly. I tried a whole bunch of items from the dosa to the fish tikka masala to the malai kofta. All excellent! I don’t even eat cooked salmon, but it was great in the tikka masala. Definitely try the mango lassi too. So refreshing and tasty! This is a spot you don’t want to miss! Also, they were great about bringing out more waters and as an FYI, they take a student discount. ”
“ The Indo-Chinese noodles were delicious! The quantity was great, and the spice level was perfect, just like the noodles you'd find in India. ”
“ We went at the end of a really long day and we were extremely hungry! The food arrived really fast. Some hits some misses. The Gobi Manchurian was amazing. The Samosa chat was mid… The bhindi masala was a little under seasoned and gummy. The chana masala was average. Overall, we were impressed with the speed of service. The ambience was quite pleasant. There was plenty of street parking… Will we go back ?unlikely… But were we happy with the what we got the first time? it wasn’t bad… ”
“ Dum chicken biriyani barely had any chicken … the pieces were all bones per my buddy. I ordered achari chicken and it was alright. However the location, vibe, decor, and service were great! ”
“ Absolutely incredible and authentic Indian food! The Gobi Manchurian was hands down the best I’ve ever had—perfectly crispy, flavorful, and just the right amount of spice. The Butter Chicken was rich and creamy, the Malai Kofta was melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the Orange Kulfi was such a unique and refreshing treat to end the meal. Amazing flavors, great portions, and fantastic service. Will definitely be coming back! ”
