"I ordered for the first time today a Saturday)1 at 6:25pm. Pretty empty. Tables sticky when I waited for the food. Didn't matter to me too much the overall decor was pleasant. I ordered at 6:25 they estimated 10-15 minutes. My food wasn't done until 6:50. That's fine, under half an hour for take out is usually acceptable especially cause this is a restaurant not a fast food take out place. It seemed like it was a dad and son running the place and that made it pretty authentic. Polite and respectful. However they don't seem like they have a lot of business. As for the food I ordered chicken biryani and chicken curry. I'm hoping this will beat zaikas and maliks for Indian food as it is very close to my house. It has 4.5 star rating before I even tried it. They gave me mango chutney for me to try in a little container. Everything was neatly packaged in the bag to go. Yes! Those tight sealed containers that I can reuse! Portions didn't seem too right for he chicken curry. They left out the plain naan that's supposed to be included with the curry. Oh no. Chicken biryani doesn't look like how it's supposed to. The chicken is roasted chicken almost like a tandoori which I definitely wanted to avoid. Not the type you use in biryani! I feel like I ordered chicken tandoori with rice. And I hate tandoori unfortunately! Doesn't mix well. Garlic Naan was thick. Different than any Naans I had which are normally thinner. It makes it more bready than it needs to but I don't mind. Chicken curry was more of a sauce than curry. The sauce was thin fell off my fork. Ugh! Really Disappointed!! REALLY WANTED TO LIKE THIS PLACE! Came here starving after not eating all day didn't even finish anything they gave me. Ugh! Maybe they thought they could get away with serving me this cause I'm not Indian! Not worth $24.82 : plus the $2 tip"
