Delicious Chicken Roll!
My experience at the restaurant was centered around their incredibly tasty chicken roll. It's so good! I'm actually going to order it right now.

Disappointing Online Order Experience
I used to love this place as it is a local spot and has decent prices. However, my experience has drastically changed. I’ve ordered online twice now and received the wrong order. On both occasions, I received samosas instead of the pakora I ordered. When I called to let them know about the mistake, hoping they would rectify it, I was told, “we didn’t make pakora today so we gave you samosa. ” There was not even an apology. This resulted in a horrible customer service and an overall horrible ordering experience. I will not be dining here again and suggest saving your money for a better meal at Pakwan, located right up 16th street.

Disappointing Experience: Wrong Order and Dirty Restroom
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. I did not receive my online order from their own website, which led to an extra 30-minute wait. To make matters worse, the pizza was not thin crust as I had ordered, and the taste was just 'meh'. Additionally, the restroom was dirty. Overall, the service was poor due to the order mix-up and wait time, the food was not as expected, and the ambience was negatively impacted by the cleanliness of the restroom.

Amazing Curry and Great Value!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I found the naan to be very good and the curry was amazing. The portions were very large, making it a very good deal.

Delicious Food, Worth the Price
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food here is absolutely delicious, with amazing flavors. I particularly loved the saag paneer and cheese naan – they are my absolute favorites and I can’t get enough! I’ve been three times now, and it never disappoints. While it is a bit on the pricey side, the quality and quantity of food make it totally worth it. I highly recommend this place!

Disappointing Tikka Masala Pizza
We were so disappointed! We love the Tikka Masala as a dish, but were so disappointed because the pizza doesn’t taste like Tikka Masala at all! It didn’t taste like anything… I don’t know if there was not enough sauce or something. If it just had taste it would’ve been perfect…

Amazing Food and Friendly Staff!
My experience at this restaurant was truly amazing. I visit weekly, sometimes twice a week, and always order the tandoori chicken, lamb biryani, and chicken tikka masala with naan, which my kids absolutely love. It's rare to find a place that my entire family enjoys, but this is it! The owner and staff are incredibly friendly. I'm 110% sure that if you try any of my three recommended dishes, you'll be blown away. I consistently recommend this place to others, and no one has ever told me I was wrong. Finally, you can truly feel the freshness in the food; after finishing, your stomach will thank you.

Phenomenal Flavor, Out of This World!
My experience with this restaurant has been solely through DoorDash, but the quality and taste of the food are truly phenomenal and out of this world. I can only imagine how much better it would be fresh in person. If you haven't tried this place, you're definitely missing out! My personal favorites and recommendations are the tandoori fish, butter chicken, and fish biryani.

Best Butter Chicken in the Neighborhood
This is a barebones place for pizza and Indian food. As a connoisseur of butter chicken, I found this to be the best in the immediate neighborhood. The food was excellent, and the service was top-notch, earning a perfect score. The atmosphere was decent, though not outstanding.

Bland Pizzas, Okayish Curries
My experience at the restaurant was mixed. The pizzas were unfortunately bland. However, the curries were okayish, with the quality depending on what was ordered. The reviewer's metadata indicates a food score of 3, a service score of 4, and an atmosphere score of 3, with the meal type being dinner and the price per person ranging from $10–20.
