We ordered from Indi when it was in the previous ownership and it was good. Nothing amazing but solid. For the past several months, Indi only had Indo-chinese on Uber eats which is good but we get Chinese-Chinese on those days. Saw they had their Hindi menu avail and wow, it was good. My wife gets Uber eats from Mommy's and others from Sammamish and such but she was impressed by Indi's quality for butter chicken, saag chicken, garlic naan ( I thought it was overdone but she loved it), and potato curry. Take note that when you order, it will come a slight bit spicy. But it is good. My kid ate some of it and kept doing so with water because the quality and flavor were right. I didn't see a spice rating option but it was really nice. If you want less, maybe add it to the comments. Clearly an authentic place now, and not just a biz. You can also tell by the owner just responding to good reviews. But I can tell you, this place is producing good and authentic food. Going 5 stars. Hoping they keep this up.

Ordered indo Chinese food - Chicken fried rice , Hakka noodles and Chicken 65. The food was very oily and the rate wasn’t as expected.

If you order ahead for take out expect to wait an additional 30 to 45 minutes to get your order (after the pick up time). Ordered the tikki masala chicken and it was one chunk of chicken and sauce. Very disappointing.

We loved the kachori and paneer pakoras from Indiqzeen. They are mouth wateringly delicious with the perfect balance of seasoning and spice. Would recommend these to anyone looking for authentic home style snacks. Perfect for the rainy Seattle weather with a cup of chai.

I went in to buy some food and the nice couple there did not speak English. This was a good sign! Luckily a gentleman showed up who could and took my order. Food was great. Flavorful, great consistency, texture. Spot on and I will be back! Glad to have some authentic Indian food in Redmond ridge and can’t wait to try some new dishes. Gobi Manchurian wasPerfect and chicken tikka masala was also great.

Awesome food with amazing host.. We ordered papadi chat , kachori aloo curry , palak Paneer ( it was customized demand by my son ) and lastly the best jalebi I ever had in Washington.. Food has authentic taste of north India..the best part was none of the food was oily at all..Highly recommended to enjoy best chaat and other items in Indi Qzeen..

I really liked the cool and comfy seating area to the right of the entrance. Very unique and well designed. Otherwise it's a nice, clean restaurant. So I wasn't sure what one of the menu items was, so I asked the lady behind the counter what it was. She clearly didn't understand my question and added it to my bill. I asked again if she could describe the item, and she did, but I decided on another dish. She apparently still didn't understand that I didn't want the first item. I got the masala curry and it was very odd. First of all, I've never had an Indian dish that was watery. Maybe I am not super familiar with all Indian cuisine, but it seemed out of the ordinary. Also, the rice was odd, it seemed like it was cooked thoroughly, but it still had a very odd texture and very little taste. I love masala, and I love curry, so I thought it would be an ideal fusion. It wasn't.... This place was suggested by an acquaintance. Unfortunately I cannot recommend it further. Maybe you'll have better luck than I did, but I don't see the need to return. BTW I love Indian food. I'm not sure what this was.

These people are sooo rude. We went in with our 3 year old to get some chaat that is ready to go. we ordered and was ready to pay when the lady got a call from a customer. Meanwhile my toddler who saw Jamun started asking Jamun to me. The lady literally screamed raising her voice "1 minute to my kid" as she was on the call. I have never ever experienced this anywhere. If they don't want kids inside they should write it up on the entrance or not sell sweets. We told her we don't want anything and we are leaving and she again rudely told us that Samosas have been heated up. So we ended up buying it and leaving. Later she tried giving Jelabi to my kid but never apologized to us. I am never going back in again. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER.

I ordered food for 25 people for my daughter birthday, it was not a great experience.the only good thing was khasta kachori. Dal makhani and kadai paneer was hopeless. The main course was so blend that no guests liked it. When we went for tasting then also I told the owner about dal makhani to make it richer but it was of no use. Would not recommend this place for main course .

If you are from north India and love kachori and samosa, in that case please give this restaurant a try . Very authentic and awesome taste and fresh . Thank you for serving us this amazing food .
We have ordered JALEBI - famous Indian sweets - several times from this location, and it has been consistently very amazing. Their JALEBIS are the best in the whole of Seattle area, as they are not at all greasy and oily. I have yet to taste JALEBIS like this from any other restaurant here. We like the Jalebis when they are crunchy, fresh and don't stick together. I have noticed that their jalebis are always made fresh & there is no question about the quality. We've also had their CHAAT items recently, and they are all delicious. The whole preparation of CHAAT is used with fresh ingredients and it's absolutely tasty - just as expected. Their samosas are also very authentic and freshly made. You will get the Punjabi food taste in their mouth watering items. If you do love North Indian food, then this is one place I would highly recommend!

Today I stopped by after 4 long years, just read my old review, don't remember this place at all. I stopped by as soon as they just opened- 1130 am. An old man was cleaning the place, sweeping in front, then cleaning the door and an old woman setting up things inside. There was 2 big couches and 2-3 tables and chairs around. The couches were super soft, not comfortable to sit and eat on the table before it. I walked up to the counter, glaring at the menu, the lady saw me, waited a bit and then walked inside. I read all the paper/ notes written around - something about they are barely meeting ends during this Covid times, and that they are short staffed, hence food prep takes longer, same person takes care of the front as well of the back, and so on. Then the lady came out, and I ordered for a samosa chaat. She said she has to prep it fresh and will take 10 min, I said ok. (Lol actually she said in Hindi, and I barely understood) Every table had a vase with a fresh rose, and some old paintings on the wall. Lousy sofas. Then my food came, no water, I didn't ask either. Everything in disposables. And then I ate and walked out.. lol no in the front, the Thatha (old man) facing back .. don't know what he was doing there. Oops I forgot to pay. The lady came running. And then I remembered, oh no, I walked back in. Gave her my card. She pointed to a instructions sheet- i looked at it- it said visit this website, go to this and that and pay. Hmmm. Then again I insisted she did it with my card. She showed in actions that she doesn't know to use that pay machine and that I had to do it online. Oh God, then that process took longer than I took to eat. lol basically I placed an order online to pickup the food that was already churning in my stomach! Maybe Venmo would be a better way to pay. Put the QR code there- would be much faster. Food is on mark- no complaints on that. Fresh, hot and yummy!

I had stopped by today as I was craving samosas. I had a fantastic experience - the owner engaged in a warm conversation about Allahabad, offered complimentary kachori and dessert given shankranti festival. I loved the food and ended up carrying out a bunch of food items. Cannot wait to go back to home cooked food.

Loved their kachori aloo ki sabzi and chole kulche. The owner is really nice. Would definitely recommend this place!

During this COVID time, inspite of shortage of staff, owner is doing her best to give the the best food in reasonable price. It was my first time in this restaurant and I never had that delicious Chicken 65, Saag chicken and Dal Tadka. On the top of that pickle without oil & whole wheat bread (Naan) Hardly you can get anywhere. Location is little off the main road but, it's worth to try once. Highly recommended to the people who spend lots of money on horrible food on Great locations.
