I stayed near MSP airport for an early morning flight and wanted something different for takeout. I ordered Lamb Karahi. It was delicious and it came with traditional bread. The staff was super friendly and helped me with the menu. Thanky you to Ziaullah for being patient with me. I will definitely order from them again. It is very close and convenient to MSP airport hotel row too
The restaurant is very good. They cooked for me Qabil pulao and chken Karahi. It was so yummy ? ?. If you live in Minnesota, you should try ?. Very delicious food. ? they have Afghani place to sit and Chairs too.
They wipe your plate and table with the same cloth. The restaurant felt very unhygienic. Food was awful, dosa was not cooked, the flour was raw, we got no chutney or Sambar with dosa, we had to ask for it, we got ice cold chutney and a very salty liquid ( we have to assume that was the sambar). We wish we hadn’t stopped there…
Spoiled food.. need to bring food safety inspection.. Bought Masala dosa. The chutney served were spoiled. The dosa smelled the worst. I think the batter they used was rotten and the dosa was smelling bad. Won't even give 1 star if there was an option to give -ve rating. Never ever go there .
Great food! I almost always do takeout; it's bustling any time they're open. LOVE the Dosa selection!!
Food tastes okay. Masala Dosa is good. Chicken 65 biriyani is okay. Lots of red color in Gobi Manchurian. I could see the red color on my hand after rinsing my hand. Vada was dry. This place is rarely occupied in evenings on weekdays. People usually do takeout. I usually place takeout order and do grocery shopping from TBS Mart which is in the same building. Takeout will be ready right after grocery shopping.
Vegetarian options: There are a lot of vegetarian options like most other Indian restaurants. I'll recommend Dosa, Chola Battura or Naan with vegetarian sides if you are new to Indian restaurants.
Parking: There are plenty of parking spots. I didn't find any difficulty in finding a parking spot ever.
First and last time I ever go here. Ordered Samosa chaat, Goat Biryani and Butter chicken and naan. After waiting almost 45 minutes I found out butter chicken order wasn't put in. Biryani had a max of 5 tiny pieces of goat. Portion sizes were very small for everything. Samosa chaat was mediocre (basically just chickpea curry with 1 piece of samosa). On top of that we got a gratuity charge which we were not informed about and there were only 5 of us.I don't recommend anyone to come here. Very expensive for what you get and poor quality and portions. Pictures on website don't reflect what you get.
Delicious chicken biriyani and Gulab jamun. ordered 1 tray of chicken biriyani and dessert, the flavor and aroma was top notch, one of the best biriyani in Minneapolis. The customer service was great. Will order from here again.
Good food - quantity, price and taste are right. However, their dessert is seriously lacking. Charging $3 for 2 pieces of gulab jamun. Wish there’d be at least 3.
I'm not giving a low star for its food cuz the dosas are off the chain. Im giving it 1 stars cuz the service was horrible. I went there today after 3yrs cuz I was craving a dosa and from what I remembered it was delicious. I went up the counter & no greeting, asked a question & he looked at me like I was speaking a different language. Just RUDE.... I'll probably never return due to today's RUDE TREATMENT.. ill have to find another Indian restaurant if I crave another dosa!!! Oh well ....

A small place with plenty of options to eat. The photo of my order is posted here. The rice is complementary with any gravy that you order. It was prepared well but the quantity was on the lower side. It won't be even sufficient for one. Also dal did not have tomato or onion in its preparation.
Vegetarian options: It's ok.
The food is excellent but lacks customer service. This restaurant is more like take-out than dining. There are no waiter services besides someone taking the food out to you. You order and pay upfront.
Abysmal service. I ordered online, and told the guy behind the counter my name when I arrived. My order wasn't done yet (I arrived 40 minutes after I placed it, so gave the restaurant some time), so I sat down. I checked in at the counter again 25 minutes later--the guy acted like he'd never seen me before and I had to go over my order and give my name again. (He had only spoken to 2 other customers, and a dine-in customer who arrived after me got served first.) He told me it would be 3 more minutes for my order so I sat down to wait again. Cue me checking in with him 10 minutes later and he said my order was done--but I'd seen him bag that order 5 minutes before and he never bothered to tell me.
Customer service is was very poor, asked for recommendations and the guy responded asking if we wanted our items separate or in the same container instead of recommending different dishes? Also did not expect a 35-40 minute wait for two items, when there was only two people in the restaurant who already had their food, could have had a lot of take out orders but was not expecting that long of a wait when I walked in. Asked for a refund becuase I couldn't wait that long and the guy tried to hassle me over it and say he could rush the order in 15 min, I didn't want to risk the quality of the food from being rushed or it not getting done in that time, so apologiesed and had to ask 4 or 5 times to just recieve a refund so we could leave. Could hear the cook in the back yelling cuss words that we canceled our order loud enough for my niece to hear clearly. Overall a pretty poor experience without even getting to try the food.
If you want to see what this place truly is. Then try this simple exercise. Order a meal in person and just as You pay. Say you want to cancel.Even before the order has gone through and make your own decision and review my single star.
