“Tiffin is truly something special. I’ve been blessed to have been introduced to this place back in 2013/2014, and since then I’ve returned on many occasions, always bringing along my foodie friends and family so they can experience it too.

The food is consistently outstanding — rich, authentic, and deeply satisfying. I’ve traveled to India myself, and I can honestly say this place does justice to Indian cuisine. The flavors, spices, and attention to detail feel genuine and respectful of the culture, not watered down.“

“Great service, food is very delicious.“

“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 We are from Delhi and big foodies, and I must tell you that they superseded our expectations.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!!!!!“

“A great new restaurant in Ambler. Great food and good service. We will return!“

“Delicious Indian cuisine. I’ve been struggling to find a good Indian restaurant since I moved to the Philly area about 6 months ago, and I mean really struggling. Out of all of the places I’ve tried, Srinagar takes the cake!!! The Chicken Tikka Masala is incredible and is the perfect spice level for a medium. I did only get delivery via a third party service, but would certainly consider eating in next time. Will be eating here again!!!“

“Fantastic food. Great spot. Would recommend to anyone.“

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

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

“Chicken tikka masala is 10/10“

“Absolutely loved the experience! Sanit and Swapnil went above and beyond with their service—super attentive, friendly, and made everything feel effortless. And a special mention to Sanit for crafting the best mojito ever—perfectly balanced, refreshing, and unforgettable. Will definitely be coming back!“

“We’ve been coming here for years. The menu has changed, but the quality has not! From chaat, to lassi, to their desserts… we recommend all of it. One of our favorite places, and we can use uBerEats now so it’s even more convenient!“

“Always delicious! Go eat in with friends or family, it’s a a great deal for the quality and quantity, and great service.

I’ve been here many times and tried at least half the menu. You won’t be disappointed!

The saag paneer, dal makhani, veggie samosas w/ mint and tamarind sauce, and chicken mali kebab are top of my list right now. Can’t wait to go back!“

“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.“

“Went here for a Sunday lunch with my friend, I can’t say enough how amazing and fresh the food was and service was impeccable certainly will be coming back!“

“Best Halal food truck in the city! Even better than some restaurants. 10/10.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing food and great service! The chicken haleem was rich and flavorful, the naan was fresh, and the malai tikka boti was juicy and tender. The seekh kebabs had excellent taste, the beef nihari was full of authentic flavor, and the chana masala was delicious. Friendly service and a great overall experience. Will definitely order again!“

“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!“

“Lamb Saag was delicious. Paratta bread was buttery and flaky. The coffee was good too!“

“Delicious food!!! My favorite so far is the chicken soup, mouth watering authentic spices and herbs, it so delicious!!!“

“Amazing food and great service!! 😊“

“That tikka roll was mad good. I’m def comin’ back👍🏿“

“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.“

“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“

“I actually stopped by this smoke shop originally to grab some Indian food nearby, but I’m glad I went in — they have some of the best quality vapes I’ve seen around here! The selection is way better than other shops in the area, and the staff was super chill and helpful. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into good flavors and quality products. Unexpectedly turned into my go-to spot!“

“Absolutely fantastic every time. I usually get the lamb vindaloo, baingan bharta, paneer makhani and veggie samosas. The samosas are incredible, and you can’t go wrong with any of the curries, they’re all so good. Plus they actually give you enough rice. 10/10.“

“I had gotten lost overnight on A Sunday about a week ago and when I asked for something for my pet who was traveling with me, the staff at Namaste asked me to take a seat and relax, when they had returned with two full plates of basmati and lentils I was in shock I keep you all in my prayers, home safe and Lacie Marie my companion ate half as I knew she would. THEE BEST INDIAN CUISINE AND RESTAURANT TO #DINE ...I Thank You ladies and gentlemen at Namaste. Even the customers were understanding. Beautiful place ?“

“Oh my goodness, this place was delicious! I cannot wait to eat here again! The man working was very kind and friendly and helpful!“

“For a lovely dining experience, try the new restaurant Nirvana Richboro. it's a great place for both delicious food and a beautifully set table." Definitely recommended for tasty food.“

“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.“

“Kind and helpful staff. Food is quite good. I encourage you to try it. You will definitely like this establishment.“

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

“The best Indian food on the Main Line! Great staff, quality food. They are very accommodating when dining with kids.“

“Food is delicious and the staff is super friendly.“

“Wonderful local establishment with the most flavorful and consistent curries. Absolutely love the gobi Manchurian. They ask your spice preference on a scale 1-7 which is fab! And mango lassi is delightful. They also have great vegetarian options !! The shredded paneer might be a new favorite.“

“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.“

“I've ordered takeout many times before, but I've never left a comment—until now. I've tried several Indian restaurants, but the food from Kazi's Tandoor & Grill stands out. It tastes excellent, especially the Chicken Biriyani. I have no idea how they make the biriyani rice so aromatic while keeping the fat content so low. Chicken often has a strong smell and aftertaste, particularly when reheated—but not this biriyani. I have to give it a 5-star rating. Honestly, I don't even have the words to fully express how impressed I am with this dish. I'm also curious about the kind of rice they use in the biriyani—it must be top-quality, definitely not regular Basmati.“

“I ordered my first with some hesitation, but it was worth it. I ended up ordering from this place like 3 time this week. Tried vijaywada biyani, gunpowder dosa, chicken kottu parotta, and some other non veg curries. They were all so yummmm. Also ask them for their special talapakattu biryani (goat). OMG Its not made with basmati rice , but tastes 1000 times better than most of biryani i have had.“

“That tikka roll was mad good. I’m def comin’ back👍🏿“

“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.“

“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.“
