The food was good and filling! Mango lassi was yummy 🥭 chicken kadai was very spicey!! And the chili naan was delicious 😋 but there was mold 😨 on the rim of the water bottle and a piece of hair in my rice 🤢 There was also ai art on the wall😒👎 The place looks very nice and fancy and the people working there are nice! I also appreciate non plastic cups, dishes, and utensils 🍽👍

Hamid was amazing at explaining the menu items. The food was delicious. We got all vegetarian options; Samosa, Cheese Butter Masala, Cheese Butter Masala, Chana Masala, Chilli Garlic Naan, Steamed Basmati Rice, and for dessert Rose Ice Cream Falooda. And because it was cold we had Masala Tea

The food taste very good but what kind of portion size is that? Insane for almost 30$!! The butter chicken 8/10 the naan 5/10 and the rice .5/10 only because it’s cooked well! I’d love to give you 5 stars for the flavor profile but I asked for EXTRA spicy and it was barely spicy. The rice is barely enough for a serving. Why is there 2x the amount of chicken than rice?

My dear friend and her mom are in town visiting me for the holidays. We decided to take our moms out for Indian. We decided to try Desi Tadka and we are so glad we did! EXCELLENT service. Hamid is a gem! So attentive, willing to answer any questions, and was wonderful about checking on us during our visit. The food was DELICIOUS! My friend's 76 year old mom devoured her food and she usually eats like a bird. My mom ate more than she ever does which made my heart so happy because my mom has not had the best appetite lately. What a beautiful Sunday lunch with beautiful people and yummy food. We will be back!
