Desi Monks - Authentic South and North Indian Restaurant

I love Indian food and my significant other is rather new to the cuisine. We saw this place was highly reviewed in town and wanted to give it a shot, and we had a wonderful experience. We ordered many things including vegetable samosas, egg noodles, chana saag, tandoori chicken, and garlic naan. Everything was delicious! I especially loved the chana saag and garlic naan and my significant other loved the noodles. Only critique may be that the tandoori chicken was quite small, might go with the kebabs ne ça t time. The staff was incredibly kind, helpful with questions, and service was very prompt. They offer a cash discount as well when it comes time to pay the bill. We will definitely be returning!

We really loved it. Might be our new favorite Indian place in the QC. Never had a dosa before but it was amazing! Service was relaxed, friendly, and helpful. We will definitely be back (soon!).

The best Indian food I’ve ever had, and I have had quite a bit! Really flavorful spicing on the dishes, tasty meat, nice garnishes, good level of heat. The garlic naan, tandoori chicken, and chicken vindaloo were excellent. Our favorite thing was the Indo-Manchurian fried paneer with chili garlic sauce. The music videos projected on the wall are great for atmosphere too.

Last night was my 1st time visiting this restaurant and I was Very pleased with the customer service, location was super easy to find and the Food was Delicious 😋! If you don't like spicy food (like I Do) you will want to say something about that because the normal spice was Awesome for my tastes, but I know my wife wouldn't be able to handle it, lol... The cost was Very affordable and a Great value for the quality of the food and service! Definitely going to have to recommend eating here and make sure to bring your family and friends! 😁👍

The team is very courteous and welcoming. The food is excellent with the right level of spices so all can eat. On top of it, all the meat is #Halal. I tried Tandori Chicken. The serving consisted of four pieces. All of them were a juicy which enhances the taste vs. dry pieces. Rasam Soup was something new for me. It was spicy with slight tanginess. Plain Naan was excellent coming out straight from the oven. #Iowa #Illinois #Moline #travel #food #desifood #indiancuisine #Pakistanicuisine
