My husband ordered a combo of eight fried wings and a small fried rice for $15. He was in a hurry to leave the area because of some sketchy people loitering outside, and unfortunately, he didn’t check the box before he left.
When he got home and opened the box, I actually laughed in disbelief. I’ve never seen “naked” fried chicken like this before. The wings barely have breading or batter on them. The sight of them is so unappetizing that I don’t even want to taste them.
The only reason we ordered from this place was to sample the chicken for a potential large brunch order we are hosting. I am so glad we decided to try them beforehand.
This was our first and last time doing business with this carry out

A true hidden gem in Northeast DC! The chicken and waffles are crispy, juicy, and absolutely on point, but don’t sleep on the Indian menu — the butter chicken, samosas, and tandoori are legit delicious. The variety here is unmatched for a neighborhood carryout. Fast, friendly service and everything tastes made with care. Once you try it, you’ll be hooked!

I did walk in ordered a grilled chicken salad & paid the cashier $9.81. While waiting over 15 minutes for my odrer, I noticed a sign stating no returns & no refunds.I finally got my order after 20 mintues & hurriedly left eatery. The salad greens were spoiled, had a yellowish to dark brownish/ blackish pieces of mixed greens. The grilled chicken breast was small size, overcook. I almost choke eating a dry piece of grilled chicken. I wouldn’t recommand or returned back to this place!

I used to drive past this place cause it doesn’t look to amusing from the outside but I’m glad i came in one day the food is really made to order the chicken is fresh i can taste it’s been dropped and prepared once i order the Rice is really different the Lamb fried rice is a Indian twist to the Carry out everyone. Is used to i would say they could add more meats whenever your adding to your fried rice to make it worth the price besides that everything i had so far has been on par def a hidden gem

Your breakfast platters are great when “available”, but I was confused why you were closed on Sunday while DoorDash listed you as available. It caused a bit of inconvenience so I wanted to flag it for other customers.

I got a modified quesadilla, grateful that they made the changes. Lassi was EXCELLENT. I think maybe the interior decor could be improved, felt very uninviting. A drug deal may have occurred inside (another patron asked if I smoke, then exchanged cash with someone else).

EDIT: Removing a star for replying with an AI response

Update: I am recinding my review of 5 stars. I just spoke to the man i see every single day to order my food. He was rude, condescending and downright nasty. Mind you, I spend $50-$80 here a few times a week. When he answered I was jolly and had a visitor with me and wanted them to try their vegetable fried rice and fried mixed chicken.

This guy told me, “I cannot give it to you like that.”
Me: “Why? I got it that way a few days ago.”
Guy: “Its too expensive”
Me: “Okay, I got the money. and i just got it like that the other day. i come there everyday.”
Guy: “Okay you got the money, so? its alot of ppl come here everyday. You’re not the only kne whl shop here everyday.”
Me: “Wow, you know what i dont even want it i dont like the attitude.”
Guy: “okay, bye.”

I was so embarrassed that i had the convo on carplay because he completely dismissed me as if he didnt just thank me and my fiance two days ago for spending so much money there. He knows my white van when he sees it he knows im about to spend money. This man obliterated my view of them and their worthiness to shop with them. As black ppl its hard these days to find places to frequent without something off-putting happening and making you wish you had just cooked at home.

I am utterly disappointed in the staff member and I hope everyone sees this and goes into the establishment knowing that once they reach an amount of weekly success the good reviews that he alone helped them garner, he alone, will help them tarnish.

I know for a fact my initial review has brought even more business than the same older ppl that used to stop by and the occasional round-the-way family thats hesitant to stop there because of the youngings that hang inside there.

the first review had over 1,600 views! I promise you, i live 2 minutes away, NO ONE was shopping here but super locals before that review.

these ppl just lost their biggest fan!

I will NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN. I WILL NEVER RECCOMMEND ANYONE TO SHOP HERE.

If ppl will talk to you and treat you that way after all the business you bring them they couldnt possibly care for your food. you cant see them cooking yyour food either so im even more skeptical now. Im glad this happened because only GOD knows what theyre doing behind that curtain.

ImInitial Review: First off they’re so polite and welcoming! they treat you like a human being and they don’t judge the community they’ve chosen to serve their indian/american dishes to. If you’re like me and you mean it when you say fried hard then this place is for you. i literally was able to clean a fried chicken breast to the BONE! Name one place you can hit bone without some soggy slimy orangish gunk or even eat the whole breat withoit being weirded out or recooking? you cant because I’ve tried all the chicken and waffles and whil Southern style fried chicken and waffles is a good 2nd, This place jumped to the top of my end of the year cravings list for good fried food and dishes i want to try from the Indian culture!

They make every dime worth it and they fry the hell outta some chicken! Jerry’s, H&Chicken, Crown, Popeyes none of them can touch this little spot! PLEASSSEEEE SHOP HERE!!
