“ One of the best lamb curry dishes, so delightful! It's spices and flavors made me smile for the entire lunch time today! ”
“ I went back last week: 5 stars for the chicken dish that starts with an A. It might be Anda or Anha or Anrha or something. But it tasted better than the chicken from Whole Foods, better than at Sakoon, at Swaad, at Punjab Cafe, at Desi Express, at Sankranti, and better than at the Halal Shack at San Jose State. Again, this is just for that Chicken dish that started with the A. ”
“ This is one of the best places I have ever eaten. The service is very fast and the staff is beyond friendly. The food looks huge. Will sure come here more often ”
“ Tried the chicken tikka dosa, cauliflower 65, chicken wrap, chicken tikka masala and paratha bread. So delicious! So. Much. Flavor. This place is really good and I highly recommend it. It's also very well priced because we spent $65 on all of that including tip. You can hear them making it fresh for you, which was really awesome. My personal favorite was the chicken tikka dosa. Never tried anything like it and seriously loved it. I was worried it would be soggy but they got the concept down pat! Very innovative. Service was quick, maybe 15 minutes. Staff is friendly. Ambiance is very simple and more suited to takeaway. ”
“ I was skeptical at first given the previous establishments at this spot but this turned out to be a gem of a hole in the wall. The place looks and feels like any hole in the wall restaurant and the minute you step in the aroma elevates your expectations for the food. You can instantly smell the jugalbandi of spices in the kitchen. I ordered their chicken biryani, the vijayawada variant of the more popular Hyderabad chicken biryani. Boneless pieces of spiced fried chicken in an aromatic bed of basmati cooked with the various spices. It was fantastic. Spicy but fantastic. Ordered takeout at the counter, got my food in about 15 mins, very courteous service. Looking forward to trying more of their menu. ”
“ I have visited this place multiple times. The staff are really warm and the place is always clean and hygienic. I have tried dosa, paratha, and biriyani. The taste and the quantity of the food is really good. Definitely recommend. ”
“ This new place popped up on DoorDash recently. There is a scarcity of good south indian restaurants near Evergreen so was glad to see this on the map. The prices are also reasonable compared to other restaurants offering similar food. The food: 1. Chicken Tikka Dosa: Haven't had this combination before. The dosa was very yummy and filling. 2. Mushroom 65: Another unique dish. The mushrooms were perfectly cooked. Slightly crunchy on the outside and soft inside. A little spicy. Loved the taste. 3. Chicken 65: Similar preparation as the mushroom. Liked this as well. 4. Vijayawada Egg Biryani: The rice was flavorful. 5. Masala Dosa: Compared to the chicken tikka dosa, the filling was considerably less. The taste however was good. Will order again. ”
“ Ordered the Masala Dosa, Chicken Tikka Dosa, and the Chicken Tikka Masala and all of the food was excellent, fresh, and came with side sauces that were all great. All of that was about $33 (pre-tip) Absolutely great value. ”
