Reviews
The presentation of the food was decent. It felt like it was more of a “fast food” than an authentic Indian food. The naan was also a bit burnt. I’ve had better naan even the ones that you just bake at home yourself. It did not taste like it was fresh but I did like the amount of spice they used.
Overall, I was a bit disappointed with the lack of authenticity flavor.
The food here never disappoints, the service is warm, and the vibe is fantastic. Highly recommend Desi District if you’re craving authentic Indian flavors with unique, creative twists!
Rumali Roti, the main hero of this place, is quite good. The only reason why I go to this place. However, there are a few issues that make it less than ideal.
First, the menu prices are inconsistent. For instance, the chicken 555, which we ordered on the menu for $10.99, was actually charged at $13.99. That’s a whopping $3 increase in price! It would have been a simple courtesy to update the menu.
Secondly, the quantity of the dishes is not worth the price. We ordered a starter, but it arrived as a wet gravy, more like a curry. As you can see in the picture, it was supposed to be chicken 555. It tasted okay, but it was a disappointment.
Lastly, the pace of service is fairly slow, which is understandable given that we were there pretty late in the afternoon at 3:30.
I choose Indian restaurants specifically because I expect basic care and respect when vegetarian food is ordered. Sending non-vegetarian food in place of a clearly vegetarian dish shows a complete lack of attention and responsibility.
For vegetarians, this kind of error is unacceptable. If a restaurant cannot correctly identify and pack vegetarian items, that is a serious problem. Extremely disappointed.
Got the paneer dosa which had raw paneer just grated, we asked the restaurant that it has no masala and flavour and they sent a replacement, instead of paneer dosa, normal masala dosa was served, on top of that it had a big un mashed potato, not expected. I visited their Dallas branch few months back and it was far better. Not happy with quality of food here, do
not recommend.
Food quality is painfully average at best; some snacks arrive overly salty, gravies taste reheated and tired, and the chutneys are straight-out-of-the-fridge cold and clearly old. Portions are tiny compared to the photos, prices are anything but discounted, and the person at the counter has zero clue about their own promotions—leading to awkward arguments and wasted time.
Bright lights and loud music can’t hide the fact that this place survives purely on misleading ads and zero accountability. Worst dining experience in recent memory—save your money and mood.
Overall, this is definitely a go-to spot in town. We look forward to visiting again!
