Experience and food quality is low
I wanted to leave an honest review however their mistake has left a sour first impression.
I guess at a certain time they don't have servers so if you want to eat in you have to place your order at front and someone from the kitchen will bring it out to you.
Upon ordering my stepdad mentioned to them that I am fasting as I had a big puja for Amma to do for my birthday in 2 days. I ordered a saag paneer and garlic naan with mango lassi. All was well. I was so ecstatic to eat and break my vrat fasting. We ordered up front and a guy brought it out to us for us to eat. I didn't think anything of it aside from the fact that if you ask for mild Indian hot. It's still not spicy. Unfortunately they messed up BIG TIME. Instead of giving me saag paneer they gave me chicken paneer that I have unfortunately already ingested. I appreciate their attempts to fix it by giving me my original order, naan and rasmali. However it doesn't change the fact that I had to call my Pujari to cancel my puja. A puja that I've waiting and preparing for 2 months.
Should they have had staff that was actually serving a mistake like this would've been avoided. However with being desi and wanting to act cheap by cutting staff hours caused a loss in business and nothing can resolve their actions. Om shakti 🙏🏾

Came to pick up food realized I ordered from different place out of state-TripAdvisor had wrong number listed. They made my food anyway within minutes! Gave me free drink while I waited. Good food!

You can order food at the counter and they will bring to the table. Food is always good and similar to every Biryani City.

Worst biryani!
Indian cuisine is all about tradition. People go out to experience the environment. Customers expect the restaurant to invest on top tire chef to serve good food if they cant afford to pay for service.

Great food. They no longer (at least in Allentown) offer table service, although you can order at the register and they will bring you your food in take-out containers. Same delicious recipes and very friendly staff. It seems that, after COVID, the takeout business was easier to support than having to find wait staff. Can't blame them, but I wish there were table service again.

I really enjoyed the food there and not too pricey. Just be aware that it’s very self service experience: you need to pay at the cashier. Also they give you disposable dishes for your food even if you are dining in - which is fine if you are only going for the food and not for a restaurant experience. They were playing some piano lullaby music, which is relaxing but made me feel sleepy lol
Good quality food, tasty
