Great spot. I have ordered a variation of dishes for lunch from here for my office/team on multiple occasions. Everything is always fresh, nicely packaged and the staff is very nice. Definitely recommend.

This is a no frills counter service restaurant with some delicious food. “We only have paper plates if you’re looking to dine in. This isn’t a fine dining restaurant ” joked the man behind the counter. However the food was great, we had some Naan, chicken curry with rice and the Dal Makhani. The food came out quickly and wow was it flavorful. I would definitely recommend this place for a great meal.

Worst Indian food in USA. I picked up the biryani and chili chicken. It was stale, and probably cooked 4 days ago based on the smell , taste and texture. My family tasted one bite and we threw it all in trash. The chicken was so dry you can’t even swallow it. Called them to provide feedback and they argued back. Avoid at all costs

Delicious and great portion sizes. The Ekta Biryani is full of rice and meat and flavor, the garlic naan could be smelled before ever even opening the bag, the paneer tikka is a great portion size and delicious. I’m excited to try more from here!

I’ve been to the fishtown location of Ekta a while ago and was surprised to hear they had opened a location in Manayunk. The Manayunk location used to be another Indian restaurant. When you walk in, you might not notice a huge difference from the previous owner, however, the food and prices have improved quite a bit imo.

We regularly order take-out from here which seems to be the popular choice even though they do have a fair amount of dine-in seating. There are many naan selections and we especially like the paneer naan and garlic naan. Favorite main dishes include salmon tikka masala, chicken tikka masala, paneer tikka masala, butter chicken, and the chicken jalfrezi. If you have a low spice tolerance be sure to request “mild” spice level on any dish.

I always pick up a mango lassi from here because it’s the best in the area, but I tried the lamb biryani and malai kofta and they were both amazing. The lamb biryani had a generous serving of the meat and the malai kofta had the perfect creaminess and spices.

My husband and I just happened to be driving by and spotted this little gem. We ordered the lamb tikki masala, the lamb madras peppers. Along with garlic naan and mango chutney. Everything was delicious. Portions were great size. Loved the mango chutney. The employees were friendly. I will definitely put this place on my favorite restaurants list.

We visited Ekta for the first time tonight and really enjoyed everything. We ordered a bit too much food, but I wanted to try a lot of different things and honestly, everything was really good.

First time trying Mango Salmon and it was TOOO good! I was having a pretty bad day and the greedy girl inside me is okay to admit that that meal was the pleasant surprise I needed to turn my day around. Definitely will be getting again and soon 🙂
