Grabbed takeout on a Friday night: paneer saag and lamb vindaloo.

I am always down to try a restaurant's version of saag. This was on the less creamy side, which I appreciated. Flavorful. Wish the bits of paneer were just a bit bigger but this was a nice choice for the saag.

Vindaloo isn't my go-to, but this was pretty good. Complemented nicely but a hefty portion of rice.

My husband and I visited this restaurant last week while attending a concert in Pennsylvania. Having traveled from New Jersey and craving Indian food, we decided to try this place based on its positive reviews. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a disappointing experience. We ordered the Gobi Manchurian, and the portion size was surprisingly small—just five pieces on a plate.

Hoping for a better dish, we asked the server about their Veg Biryani, specifically if they prepare it traditionally with the masala and rice cooked separately, rather than mixed like a Pulao. He assured us it was made authentically, but to our surprise, it tasted more like a Pulao, with the masala, veggies, and rice all mixed together. To make things worse, the dish had broccoli and chickpeas—ingredients you wouldn't typically find in a traditional Biryani. Who adds chickpeas to Biryani?

On top of the disappointing food, the bill came with a tip already included. While I understand this was mentioned beforehand, I’d like to ask the restaurant management: if you're not serving quality food, why take a tip directly from the customer?

Never thinking to go here again. Totally disappointed!

Edit - Responding to the owner comment:
I didn’t know that only rich guys can come to your restaurant & why don’t you put that as well on your menu saying “Only rich customers are welcomed!”.

You don’t even know how to respect your customers & before saying me that I can’t afford your restaurant food, let me tell you it’s not any great food that I come again to eat. (The owner edited the response after seeing my reply, he has a history to comment bad on negative reviews). Your food tastes bad. It was the worst Indian food I ever had. You first learn to respect customers. This attitude of yours will not entertain any customers. Regarding the food you are saying we finished it all, of course we don’t have habit of wasting food.

Decent food, less portions and okaish service. Visited here based on the good reviews but now I see most of reviews were not by desis. Understandably the food is average , nothing great but the prices are high and less portions. Parking is difficult and they charge you 18% gratuity. Owner has history of commenting on bad reviews. So, waiting for his justification.

Listen up everybody, this is the best Indian food in Philly. Insanely large portions so you’ll have enough for lunch the next day and the food is 10/10 every single time.

Get the garlic naan and lamb garlic or coconut curry.
