Stale bread, soggy rice, and microwaved chicken. I can’t believe this is an actual restaurant.

Honestly shocked this place has decent reviews. The location is difficult to find, and most important the food was horrible quality.The chicken tikka masala tasted flavorless and watered down. It didn’t even taste like watered down tikka masala—just a watery unrecognizable sauce. The saag paneer was okay but had very little paneer.The rice was dry and they use frozen naan, which was really disappointing, and it looks identical to the garlic naan at Trader Joe’s.Definitely won’t be ordering again.

Chicken Tikka Masala tastes like nothing. Garlic naan looks like it's from Trader Joe's. Saag Paneer has some flavor but does not look like authentic saag Paneer. Never ordering

We ordered delivery on NYE and the food was tasteless. Chicken tikka masala was missing salt and all the masala flavors. Alloo mattar was extremely spicy but no flavor, although we ordered medium spicy. Naan's were soggy and tasted as the frozen naan warmed up. So disappointed.

The samosas are extremely spicy despite being ordered mild.The aloo matar tastes only of canned peas, no flavor.The chicken Tikka masala lacks any flavor (chicken is admittedly of nice quality). It seems like the ingredients are not low quality, but there is just an abject lack of seasoning, including what seems like no salt used at all. The raita is oddly sweet.

Ordered three items and all three disappointed. No flavor at all. Super bland.

I ordered the Tikka Masala and Saag Paneer with basmati rice and naan. The tikka had exactly 6 pieces of chicken and was $20. It had no flavor. The saag paneer had very very few pieces of paneer in it. It also had no taste. I ended up throwing away the small $3 piece of naan because they ruined it by microwaving it. I am absolutely certain they microwaved it because it got so hard that it couldn't be chewed. This is another restaurant that is only business to make money. They're not interested in serving good food. I feel completely robbed and would've sent the food back had it not been an online order.

The chicken tikka masala has no taste. And they charge the small container with rice for $5.I don't think I will come back.

Super disappointed with the quality of the food. The tikka masala was bland and tasteless. We had to spice everything at home ourselves. Trader Joe’s has better tikka masala than this, and the lack of any flavor was severely disappointing. The naan was good but that would be the only reason for the one star. If you enjoy flavor I wouldn’t order the chicken tikka masala here :(

The chicken tikka masala was literally watered down tomato sauce. It was absolutely horrible. The "naan" was pita bread. Least authentic Indian food I've ever had.

Ordered delivery, the breads (naan, garlic naan, and paratha) all have the same look, taste (or lack thereof), and texture of the frozen ones you can buy from trader joes.The organic chicken tikka masala had no flavor to it and the chicken was also quite flavorless so it seems to be just cubed chicken tossed in a sauce.The chicken korma sauce was fine.

I must be blind or something… I searched for Indian restaurant , but when I got here it was a market. I don’t see anything Indian anywhere - what I see on the menu is hot / cold sandwiches, other American stuff - staff arguing- time to find a real Indian restaurant not a market called an Indian restaurant serving sandwiches LOL

Everything's tasty, but why bother with organic ingredients if you're going to add red dye to the chicken tikka?

Ordered tonight. Generous portions. Perfect spice level. The Korma was heavenly. The rice pudding is delicious too. I like that they take pop pay. They have a ton off different drinks and it's an ethnic market light. They have all priced condiments and fresh vegetables andgrab and go items. Neighborhood gem!Dietary restrictions: Vegan options
