“Generous portions, delicious food - actually spicy (in the best way!)”
“You’ve got to try this place! The food is absolutely incredible. Everything is flavorful and delicious! The service was just as great. It’s BYOB.”
“Non-Vegetarian Lunch Platter with Chicken Tikka Masala and Dal Makhani”
“My favorite Indian buffet so far. At such affordable price ($19 excluding tax), they offer a great variety of food, ranging from entrees to dessert. Note that they only offer this during weekends (maybe Friday). The only thing preventing me from eating there every week is living far from the place.”
“Delicious dinner: vegetable samosa, daal saag, chicken tikka masala, rice, naan.”
“Outstanding restaurant in Evanston that you will absolutely love. Amazing service and the good is authentic!”
“I arrived here last week craving a warm vegetarian based Nepali meal and I felt like a Queen being served by the host and my attentive servers who were happy to provide me with suggestions. I love traditional Nepali and Indian dishes and I already knew my picks would be vegetarian choices based on my preferences. I looked through the menu and based on the suggestions of my waitress I picked the Bhuteko Cauli with medium spice level and it was accompanied by a large portion of white basmati rice 🍚 so it was quite filling. I also picked my favorite beverage Mango 🥭 Lassi which tastes like a thick milkshake and as an appetizer the papaddum which comes with two dipping sauces. My meal was definitely rich and satisfying with just the right amount of spice level. The entire staff was extremely friendly and attentive always happy to bring me water 💧 and extra napkins. Alot of these dishes were meant for sharing so if you come here as a group you can try a bit of every dish to make it more fun!”
“Muy sabrosos los diferentes platillos que pedimos. Buena variedad”
“Highly recommend this place! Food is great, employees are very pleasant, price is reasonable. We visit this place once or twice a month and it’s been one of our favourite spots so far 😃”
“The greatest taste of Nepali 🇳🇵 food in Chicago. We started with chicken choila, a typical Nepali dish that goes well with any type of alcohol, they serve Mustang beer 🍺 made in Nepal 🇳🇵. Best combo. Usually choila is served cold but they served us the hot choila and it was just great, we loved it. The taste was on point. For two of us we then had chicken momos which tasted great, reminded us of back home Nepal. Great job 👏 chef 👩🍳 🧑🍳. Momo were juicy, and 😋. For our main course, we had goat curry and paratha. Curry comes with Jasmin rice and you should order paratha or nan on the side that goes well with the curry. The curry we requested for a medium spicy 🥵 and it was perfect for us. You can ask your spicy preference; don’t be shy, they can customize spicy level based on your tolerance. All in all best service by Binod who made sure everything went well. Best food, good job kitchen team and the space itself is tidy and nice, has enough natural lighting from the windows and walls has some paintings that reflects Nepal which we loved it. The restroom is at downstairs and has a stair or elevator for ADA compliance. The restroom looked nice and clean.”
“The food is pretty good. The business thali available during lunch hours is a very good deal. So far I’ve tried Paneer Chilli, Aloo Tikki, Aloo parantha, Paneer Tikka Masala. All had good portion sizes. The Aloo Tikki was covered with Chana masala which made it so good. -1 star cause Aloo Parantha and Paneer Tikka Masala could use more flavors and spices.”
