I love this place. The lunch buffet is the best Ive had anywhere. They keep everything very fresh and the ingredients are high quality. The proprietor and regular waiter are very kind and the price is very fair. Its got a very neighborhoody feel. Even the decorations and music are really nicely done. I strongly recommend the masala chai. It, like everything else, is delicious.

I haven't been to Haandi to dine in for a very long time. We've done take out and it's fine. But the experience of eating there was amazing. The food was perfect. The tea was delicious. The quiet atmosphere made it perfect for catching up with family. Can't wait to go back!!
