I stopped by Red Apple - Pakistani Indian Cuisine for the first time, thinking it was a sit-down restaurant based on the name and signage. It's actually more of a takeout spot located inside a gas station plaza, right between a fast-food joint and a market. At first, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but let me tell you, this place did not disappoint.
We ordered:
Goat Karahi (medium spice)
Chicken Korma
Butter Chicken
Chicken Biryani
Jalapeño Naan & Butter Naan
The goat dish was the standout winner. They asked for our spice preference, and medium was perfect. It took about 30–40 minutes, which made sense since they were preparing it fresh. The flavor was incredible—tender, well-spiced, and rich. I highly recommend getting a goat dish if you stop by.
The chicken dishes were good, though I personally would’ve loved an option for bone-in chicken to keep that full depth of flavor. Still, the sauces were creamy and satisfying. The naan was fresh and flavorful, especially the jalapeño one which added a nice kick.
I do wish they had Desi chai on the menu—that would’ve been the perfect way to round off the meal. One more shoutout: the gentleman at the front was super friendly and provided great customer service.
So if you're passing through or nearby, don’t let the location fool you—this place is worth a try. Skip the expectations of fine dining and dive straight into the food. Just be ready to wait a bit if you're ordering goat, but it’ll be well worth it.
yet another surprise!!!
Chicken Briyan is amazing and the nann is superb. Backalava... just get it and the mango lasso is yummy.
It's a small end of a gas station that is primarily take out/delivery.3 tables for eating in. Nothing fancy just great food, limited menu and helpfull owner/ chef.
I'm finding some of the best food comes from gas stations and strip malls. This is no exception.
Delicious, well prepared food. Facilities looked very clean and neat. Very well kept. The food was delicious, I had the nan and they were great !!
Excellent customer service and food.

I had an amazing dining experience at Red Apple. Every dish I tried was packed with flavor, fresh ingredients, and cooked to perfection. The highlight was undoubtedly the Chicken Tikka Masala — rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced, it was an absolute delight.
From the appetizers to the desserts, everything was consistently delicious. The naan was soft and buttery, the biryani was fragrant and flavorful, and the curries were spot on. You can tell the chefs put their heart into every dish.
The service was friendly, and the ambiance was cozy, making it a great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. Highly recommend this place to anyone craving authentic, mouthwatering food. I’ll definitely be back to try more from their menu!
