I’m not going back so I’m not able to snap a photo of the owner alone in the restaurant at dinner time watching tv. So here I’d like to resurface these 99 accurate reviews of the place that are buried under some paid advertisement.

Tucked away on lively South Street, this unassuming Indian restaurant turned out to be a pleasant surprise. We visited on Independence Day, and the place was packed with diners—always a good sign.
We ordered chicken tandoori, lamb biryani, butter naan, matar paneer, and both salted and mango lassi. The chicken tandoori came out hot and smoky, with that perfect char you hope for. The lamb biryani was rich, fragrant, and generously portioned, with tender pieces of lamb throughout. The butter naan was soft and pillowy, great for scooping up the creamy matar paneer, which had a lovely balance of spice and comfort. The salted lassi was a refreshing break from the heat, while the mango lassi was thick, sweet, and satisfying.
Overall, the food was genuinely delicious, the portions generous, and the atmosphere lively. A solid spot for anyone craving classic Indian flavors in the heart of Philly.

SCAM 100% Do not waste your time ordering here. I placed an order for Tikka Masala (pictured here) that was 20% off. With tip, the order came to $21 and free delivery . After placing the order, I received the following the message from the restaurant saying “I ordered a bigger size” and the new charge is now $25.40 (pictured here). I never requested a bigger size and went to Uber Eats help for support where an agent named “Sandeep” said “it is what it is” (also pictured here). Where are the customer service skills these days…so disrespectful but Ill deal with that person later. The food arrives, so I was curious to see what this ‘bigger portion’ I supposedly ordered was. Pictured here shows 4 maybe 5 pieces of chicken and all sauce. If the bigger portion was just that a bigger portion, I would have let this go and paid the extra eventhough I never requested it! But as you can see, the size is small, you’re only going to get sauce and the chicken was dry. There are better and more reputable Indian restaurants in Philly that won’t steal your money. I suggest you spend your money elsewhere.

Amazing food, great service, and the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. Good for a chill date night or solo dining experience!

I began my meal with two delicious samosas, which were crisp and had balanced flavors. They were served with two different chutneys.
Next, I tried the Chicken Vindaloo, which was fresh and came in a very spicy gravy.
Noticing the beads of sweat forming on my forehead from the heat, the server kindly brought me a small serving of sweet rice, the perfect antidote to the spiciness of the vindaloo.

Tikka Masala was watery and lacked body. I wish it had more depth of flavor. I got very little paneer in my order (maybe 6 cubes?). At $17.95, I think this is overpriced. Rice portion was large and naan was good. Don’t know that I’d recommend and I probably won’t be back.

The food is amazing, I can’t explain unless you try yourself. Sometime when they get busy, they might be a 10 minutes delay. But I promise it’s Worth the time. The chicken malai, and the chicken tikka it very tasty, the presentation is amazing. Highly recommended, is my go to Restaurant. The most amazing part is they don’t even charge you for the bottle fee for their BYOB. As a student, I recommend this restaurant too all students.

PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE! This restaurant is a scam. I ordered online through uber eats and the total came to $22.80. I randomly received a notification within the uber eats app stating that the total is being adjusted to $40.95 due to a larger sizer being selected WHICH I DID NOT DO! I called the restaurant and the representative was extremely unprofessional and nonchalant about the whole situation. I can’t wait to talk to Fox 29. These people are scam artist. Also, it was discovered that there is also another bad review for the same incident. This restaurant does not value its customers.

Best Indian food in South Philly. The food is absolutely delicious, I come here regularly. We also sometimes bring friends from out of town. They do excellent take-out, but they also have a beautiful dining room. You won’t regret it!
