I took the combo food to eat in front the restaurant and we asked the shop owner to change the package for us as the food was mixed. The shop said it was because the way I carried it( I walked for 3 steps from the counter to eat on the table in front of the restaurant). Then the shop owner said it was a common sense that I should anticipate.

I myself am Indian, so trust me when I say that their Chicken Tikka Masala is the best item on the menu. The chai is also decent, but it doesn’t have much spice or tea flavor, and it’s pretty sweet.

Unfortunately had the same experience as other customers, received the combo in a box that was completely spilled over into the bag in a matter is seconds, curries poured on top. I was given a curry I did not order in place of a curry I wanted and the owner did not call or notify me before I picked up. Once I called about it, they said they could just give me a side of a different curry which is fine I just would have to get it after work.

Wanted to try this place since I love Punjabi food. The Chole bhature was very bland and the dough inside seemed raw, it made me very sick. The samosas is were okay but not fresh and hot.
