They have fixed the inside of this place up and it definitely looks so nice and more updated. The employees here are very nice and helpful. It’s very busy with people ordering so I definitely suggest placing your order on the phone for pickup or delivery. I love the butter chicken, chicken curry, shrimp curry and goat curry. I have not tried nothing else here but I definitely plan on coming back to this location soon.

Amazing! I was at the truck stop across the street I love Indian food. Anytime I can get some I try too. Today was one of those lucky days . This was so delicious and the right amount of spicy ! Thank you so much for making sure it got done on time before my departure. I appreciate it . Highly recommend!

Let me start off with the great customer service from the hard working employees, they have a dine in place inside this restaurant as well, I ordered the curry shrimp with rice and it was definitely great plus they give you enough rice definitely more than I was expecting but that’s fine, I definitely have to come back and try a few more menu items next time I’m in the area.

My husband (who is Punjabi at heart) has tears in his eyes as I am typing this! AMAZING FOOD AND SERVICE! They are so kind and generous that they give free rooh afza sherbet to everyone in summer!! They food transports you to Punjab, really! Super authentic and home-like, and extremely affordable! They customized parathas for me because I eat less spicy. Just let them know your preference and they'll make things that suit you. Lots of vegetarian options. We'll come here again for sure! Edit after 2nd visit: makke ki roti and sarson ka saag are to die for!!! The roti melts in your mouth. Do try it. All negative comments are about the spice level. If you want less spicy, then please ask them to not put ANY spice. The food will still have ginger and garlic (no chili) and will be delicious.

There is no seating area however this restaurant seemed pretty popular. Saw lot of people picking orders. The food here is good, especially chapati. In US, usually Indian restaurants serve you frozen Indian breads but I was in awe of the freshly made rotis. The quantity was more than enough in each dish.

I have never had the pleasure of eating Indian food. I walked in there and a very, very nice lady helped me order the butter chicken and garlic bread. Oh my goodness. It is so delicious. I would recommend this place to anyone. Thank you for introducing me to such great food. It is more of take out and totally worth it.

This is the best butter chicken I've ever had. Its on a whole different level than anything else I've tried and I've eaten butter chicken from all over the US. The staff is also super friendly despite how busy this tiny place always is. If you like Indian food you have to try this place. Its a hidden gem!
