“Absolutely incredible experience at Taste of Punjab. I’m a vegetarian and somehow ended up trying the lamb kabobs — and WOW. They were insanely good. Beyond the food, the service was exceptional: genuinely warm, attentive, and welcoming. Phenomenal food, outstanding service, wonderful company, and an atmosphere that made the entire experience memorable from start to finish.

You can dine in, grab takeout, and the fact that they’re open until 2 AM makes this place an absolute gem. Taste of Punjab is officially going into the rotation. Can’t recommend it enough!“

“We had booked Veda for our daughter's wedding welcome dinner on 5/3/24. The whole process from the time we contacted them till we had our function was smooth. They were very accommodating to our requirements and went beyond our expectations. If you are looking to have a large gathering I will definitely recommend doing a buyout. We decided on the menu and then we were guests at our own dinner. It is full service. The ambience was good and our guests enjoyed both the food and their awesome selection of cocktails. Gaurav Bhardwaj and Brazil provided excellent service. Did I mention Food? Very Good and Flavorful. We are from Delhi and big foodies, and I must tell you that they superseded our expectations. The décor is very pleasant and we didn't need to do anything additional They provided us two stations for our henna ladies. Our function was a big hit. Check them out for your next baby shower, engagement, birthday function!!!!!“

“Rich and diverse flavors from south India! I ordered the Irani Chai (perfect flavorful taste),Manchow soup with chicken, Shrimp biryani, Pachimirchi Kodi Pulao and Samosa chaat. Try the Apricot delight😋“

“My mom and I came in here for an early dinner and we were blown away. There was no one in there except for us, but the service was phenomenal. Very kind wait staff. We ordered a chicken vindaloo and chicken Tikka masala, a side of naan, and two mango lassis. Everything was delicious. At the end the waiter came out with some rice pudding for us to try on the house and now I'd say it's worth getting every time.“

“Today, July 4, was my first time dining in at Ekta. My older parents and I were looking for a place to eat (and having a tough time finding one!); finally we saw that Ekta was open, though we then discovered that it was due to close in 40 minutes. I am deeply grateful to our server, Owen, for never making us feel like we were inconveniencing the staff by arriving so close to closing, and for going out of his way to help my mom (who has limited mobility) to navigate the steps both when we arrived and when we left. He situated us at a table just next to the door, which was even more helpful. As for the food itself, my dad was delighted with his garlic kabob, and I really enjoyed the Chandrakala (first time I'd ever encountered these dried-fruit-and-coconut dumplings) and our bread selections (Lachha Paratha and Ekta Naan, the latter kind of an adaptation of the Peshawari Naan concept but with black sesame seeds included). My mom and I both guzzled our delicious lassis (mango and pomegranate). Though toned down at our request, the Alu Gobi was still a bit spicy for me, but tasty nonetheless.“

“The food was very tasty! The Natukodi Biryani and Karepaku Chicken were awesome, definitely must try items. The manager, AJ, was very friendly and did a great job recommending some good dishes.

The portions were also very generous and definitely better than before. The spice level was just right. I also tried the Lamb Chops, which were really good.

Overall, a great experience. Definitely worth trying!“

“Everything was absolutely perfect. The food, the service, the cleanliness, and the vibes were all on point. I will be back.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend this place woondal“

“Excellent - Very good food!“

“We stopped by and found a hidden gem of a restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, and everything was fresh and full of flavor. Desmond, our waiter, was incredibly kind, and made our experience even better. We’ll definitely be coming back!

# Must try bullet powder IDLY❤❤❤“

“Delicious garlic Naan, Cauliflower appetizer and traditional chicken curry (medium). It was the best I ever had!“

“Saffron offers excellent lunch menu deals. For $10-12, you get a lunch portion meal (Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Saag, etc.) with rice, salad, and a daily accompaniment. Chicken Tikka Masala was delicious, but a little sweet for me. The Lamb Saag was also a little fatty, but very flavorful. Granted this was a takeout order during COVID. We typically prefer dining in to review a restaurant.“

“Absolutely delicious. The best service, food, and timing. My favorite Indian in philly.“

“We've only gotten takeout (haven't dined in yet), but their food is fantastic, and it's always ready for pickup so quickly after we call our order in! Great portions, delicious flavors, so many vegetarian options - this is my favorite Indian restaurant by far. Highly recommend!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Coriander in Voorhees for the first time, and it was an amazing experience. The Paneer Lababdar was flavorful and rich, perfectly complemented by the Goat Cheese Naan, which was absolutely delicious. The warm, inviting atmosphere was enhanced by Harman, the owner, who was not only delightful but also incredibly welcoming. As someone who works nearby at Voorhees Pediatric Dentistry, I’m thrilled to have found such a fantastic spot. I will definitely be returning often, both with my staff and my family, to enjoy more of the incredible food and hospitality at Coriander. Highly recommended!“

“Found this gem while visiting Philadelphia! It may sound cliche, but we knew we were in the right place when we walked in and there was a full table of people of Indian ethnicity. The food was delicious and authentic. Plus the portion sizes were huge. We will definitely visit here again!“

“The food tasted authentic, was very aromatic, and each meal's spice level was as requested. The food took a bit to make which to me, means it was made fresh!! Well worth the price!!

Vegetarian options: The vegetable korma was very hearty!!“

“Great food and fast service! would come here again!!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at King of Tandoor & Biryani House, and it was a delightful culinary journey to this Indian restaurant truly lives up to its name, offering a wide array of tandoori and biryani dishes. Here's my review of the experience: Ambiance (4/5): The restaurant boasts a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a cozy dinner with friends or family. The decor reflects Indian culture, with vibrant colors and tasteful artwork, creating an authentic dining environment. Service (4/5): The service was attentive and friendly, with the staff providing recommendations and accommodating special requests. Our dishes arrived promptly, and the waitstaff was knowledgeable about the menu. Food (5/5): The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the food. We started with the Vindaloo, a spicy and tangy Goat curry. The balance of flavors was exceptional, and the tender chunks of meat (I had chicken) soaked up the rich sauce perfectly. The level of spiciness was just right, offering a pleasant kick without overpowering the other flavors. The Chicken Tandoori Mix was a showstopper. The tandoor-grilled chicken had a smoky, charred aroma and was incredibly juicy. The mix of various tandoori meats provided a delightful variety of tastes and textures. Biryani (4/5): We couldn't visit an establishment with "Biryani House" in its name without trying their biryani. We opted for the classic chicken biryani, and it didn't disappoint. Fragrant and aromatic, the rice was well-seasoned and adorned with succulent pieces of chicken. Overall Experience (4.5/5): King of Tandoor & Biryani House exceeded my expectations. The restaurant offers a great selection of Indian dishes, and the flavors were truly authentic. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries or smoky tandoori dishes, this place has something for everyone. I would highly recommend King of Tandoor & Biryani House to anyone seeking a taste of India It's a place where you can savor the rich and diverse flavors of Indian cuisine in a welcoming setting. I'll certainly be returning to try more of their tempting menu offerings in the future“

“Great food and fast service! would come here again!!“

“Tiffin has been our go-to for Indian delivery for years. They have good specials, the drivers are super, and they seem really to care to know how the food was. And the food is great -- Kerala Pepper is one of our faves, and their chana masala is better than everyone's.“

“Got a large catering order from Spicy Marsala for an event, Shiblu was very accommodating and prepared a great variety of food for the event which everyone loved! Their Samosa's in particular are excellent and their sauces for the samosas, naan and tikka marsala are amazing, looking forward to trying more items on their menu!

Their dessert naan (Peshwari Naan) is also a great finishing touch to a meal or a great late night snack“

“My husband and I love Gagan Palace. Their food is absolutely amazing. Always fresh and flavorful. The new owners are extremely pleasant to talk with and you can feel the love they have for the restaurant. We will definitely be returning on a regular basis“

“buena comida y buen trato al cliente“

“Always working to improve and enhance the guest experience! Lovely food. Lovely people. Go see them.“

“Love this restaurant! I was a fan when they were in Dallas, PA so I came to check out the Philly location! Food is awesome, service is great and the restaurant is beautiful. Highly recommend!“

“Saved our asses. We almost turned around from the not so inviting exterior, but glad we didn't. The food was surprisingly wonderful and delicious, and this stop was totally worth it. We really lucked out, and if we ever drive by, we'll make sure to stop at this great food spot!“

“I can't write enough good things about cross culture. Food is consistently amazing. Over the last year or two I've been so impressed I'll randomly try new dishes. And I'm so glad I have....I found two of my absolute favorites. The Samoa Chaat is amazing. So is the spicy eggplant and shrimp. And that's not enough touching on my main order! I also highly recommend the Chefs special naan. Lamb korma, chicken cashmere, and paneer masala are staples for us.“

“I am SHOCKED at the quality of this humble food truck. The samosas, chili chicken, and saag paneer are as good or better than many local Indian restaurants —fantastic flavors and ingredient quality. The kindness and pride in her work of the woman behind the meal is also wonderful to see and so much appreciated. The affordable prices also mean I can make this cart a regular addition to my takeout rotation. Note — because everything is fresh it does take some time to prepare, I would say more than your average cart. I wouldn't at all let this deter you from grabbing food here, I would just recommend calling ahead.“

“❤️❤️❤️ authentic indian taste they have outdoor seating and they deliver hot food … love it must try“

“Went on 1/30/23. A very well stock store. Reasonable prices. Friendly and helpful employee. Lots of good frozen selections and lots of spices, herbs, legumes, lentils, sauces in jars and spice packets. We made butter chicken for dinner from a spice packet and it was easy and wonderful 20 min meal. Served with naan and samosas for dinner Their prepared foods were not open yet but it clearly has peaked my interest. Will definitely return often. I wish them well!“

“Stopped by after my son's college visit in Haverford and be wanted Indian food. Very good food! We did get some things to go and the regular naan was a bit hard, but either way, enjoyed it and will return when we are in that area again.“

“Edit: I've updated my review with 5 stars as I got a quick response that this location is within the Italian place. I'll update the review once I place an order next time.

I'm slightly confused. I'm sitting at this address and there is no store selling biryani or gyro!
Is this a ghost kitchen? Online order only? If so, please update the description as I drove 20 miles to get here.“

“We had a catering order. Food was great tasting with nice quality and good quantity of meat. All of our guests were full of praises! Highly recommend for authentic desi food.“

“Me encantaron todos los platos que probé, delicioso todo ,“

“My husband and I have been ordering delivery and takeout from Curry Leaf for a couple months now. We both agree it is the best Indian restaurant we've had the pleasure of regularly ordering from, after having other regular spots in Boston, NYC, and Philadelphia. The Hyderabadi Biryani is to die for, and the Tikka Masala is also fantastic -- ask for extra spicy! I find the goat is particularly outstanding, flavorful and always tender.

One of the things that we particularly appreciate is that they are very responsive to modification requests, like omitting cilantro.“

“Truly authentic tasting food with reasonable portions. It is the type of restaurant where you really savor each dish rather than trying to consume huge amounts of food.“

“Absolutely Delicious food! Excellent prices for very generous portions. This is the best Indian Restaurant in my personal opinion. Tonight we got Chicken Tikka Marsala , A Lamb Curry and a Lamb Biryani with 2 orders of rice one with veggies one without. And their Garlic naan rocks!!!! 5*'s from me. I'll be back!!“

“I ordered catering for a small party, the food was delicious and everything was on time and affordable. Their service was very satisfactory and I would definitely order from here again.“
