I’m usually skeptical of trying Indian food at most places abroad, purely because of the mild flavors. But Kurry Shack was an experiment that surprised me! Ordered their Chicken Biryani with a special request to make it slightly spicy. And man, this has to be my best meal in Philly. Absolutely delicious, with plenty of juicy chicken well marinated in the gravy. The staff was very helpful, also gave lemon (on request) & Yogurt raita with the Biryani. These are Indian flavors that Indians would love! Highly recommended!

We doordashed from here tonight and we waited over an hour and we asked for 2 cokes and we got Diet Coke, we called and asked what they could do about it and the lady sounded very rude and hung up on us. Don’t know if we were even refunded. Terrible service. When the food got here finally, it was dry and inedible. We tried to have it refunded but the lady said the manager only comes once a week. We are very tired from our 6 hour drive into Philly.

My friends and I ordered our meal for the first time tonight and the food was delicious. I got paneer tikka masala and it was very flavorful. My friends ordered shrimp/lamb biryani and special tandoori mix grill and we all shared. Their dishes were very good too, but my fav is the tikka masala. Their portions are very big also. On top of that, their naan is the best. I’m definitely gonna order here again. I highly recommend to eat here!

One of the best place in Philly to have Indian food. I have tried lamb , chicken and shrimp biryanis so far ( of course many main courses as well). They make it as we want ( according to our taste preferences). It always feels good to come and have food from this restaurant whenever I get Indian food cravings.

The food was horrible. We ordered on Uber eats. Our order was navaratan korma which is a vegetarian dish and were delivered Lamb korma. The pictures on the restaurant website are highly misleading, as they show very authentic Indian food, whereas in reality it’s not even close. The delivery was too slow as well. It took 45-50 min instead of originally shown 15-25 min. Not recommended at all.

Pretty sad after my last visit. The Masala sauce tasted like tomato paste–it was so tomato-ey still and tasted like hardly any of that flavor had a chance to be cooked out. The khorma was ok, but lacked alot of flavor as compared to our previous orders here. The manager did his best to fix it by replacing our food (note: in our entire 12 years together, we’ve never eaten something so bad that we asked for a remake. I’m telling you the masala was practically inedible) but they still tasted the same, showing it wasn’t a fluke or mistake. And the chef yelled at my partner when he went to pick up the new food. All around disappointing, especially since we loved the flavors before the new management!

What I received was good, but my order was not what it said it would be. I ordered the mix grill combination which is suppose to be grilled chicken, lamb, shrimp, fish, but I received chicken thigh, leg, & breast, a few pieces of lamb cubes, one shrimp, and no fish. Received 2 orders of lentil instead of an order of chickpeas & lentil. To top it off my lemonade spilled, I was hugely disappointed. Our whole order came up to $225. That’s a lot of money to spend not to receive what you ordered
