"When we walked in around 5 PM, it felt as if we had caught the staff off guard. The restaurant was empty, and the front bar area looked deserted, almost as if they were closing for the night. We placed our order, and when the employee went to the back, we heard the unmistakable sound of the microwave beeping. I'm not sure what was freshly cooked, but it certainly seemed like everything we had was just reheated. The naan was soggy and greasy, the tikka masala had a layer of oil sitting on top, and the rice was dry and completely lacking flavor. We will definitely be looking for other options or making the trip to the Durham location. I really can't understand how this place is still in business, especially considering its prominent location."

Was smoky inside and chicken was a bit tough but not terrible. Express wasn’t laid out on the bar like in the pictures. Was made to order instead. View menu

Ordered from Uber EatsMy Tikka masala was burnt. It tasted like they left the sauce on the pot way too long and just stirred it up served it.First and last time I'll eat from here.

The food was ready on time. The server was friendly. There were not that many people when I came in. There is a lot of meat in the curry. The food isn't the best. The naan bread was closer to a crepe or heated tortilla. The strongest flavor in the Tikka masala is the tomato paste. Also it is a very sweet sauce.

Love their food but ghetto! Ordered food through Grubhub. Order said it’d be done 8:30-8:40. Got to the restaurant at 8:36 and my food was sitting OUTSIDE and the store was closed!!!!! They close at 9......MIAMI Blvd location is great! Haven’t had any issues with them but this is the second time I’ve had an issue with the Franklin st location. View menu

Everything here seems to come straight from the microwave. The rice had a rubbery texture, and the chicken was no better. Their so-called "garlic naan" was just burnt garlic sprinkled over greasy naan. If you're in the mood for Indian food, skip this restaurant and head to the frozen food aisle of any supermarket instead. This will definitely be my first and last visit. Health inspectors should really take a look at this place.

The quality of the Indian food was very disappointing. The Gobi Manchurian was nothing like it should be—sour, soggy, and lacking in spice. The paneer curry was watery and overly sweet, while the vegetable korma was excessively sweet, which is not typical of Indian cuisine. The chana masala was bland and uninteresting. I ordered garlic naan but received chapatis instead, with no explanation. Unfortunately, none of the dishes were even close to being decent.
