"I ordered take out on Friday 07/12/24 for total 4 items. 1) chicken biryani medium spicy) 2) chicken Sheeekh kabab 3) garlic and butter naan 4) chicken curry medium spicy) . Chicken sheekh kabab: The worst state I had ever. Just powdery , dried and felt like heated up old left overs and complete disaster. I still didn’t even touch it. Pic attached. Chicken Curry: They made it so spicy even after adding 4 potatoes and one tomato, 3 tablespoons ghee and one quarter butter it still very hot and spicy. I am from south India and I eat medium spicy food but it is no close to medium and made with red hot chilli and my family didn’t even touch it who are born here. Chicken Biryani: The same with chicken biryani it didn’t taste like anything and the chicken is so hard and could be from old leftovers. I mixed one part of biryani with 2 parts of rice and some ghee and butter it still spicy. I don’t understand the their concept of medium spicy. Naan: I ordered 3 naan 2 garlic naan and 1 butter naan. I added pics. A little bit burnt and made in tandoori oven actually nice but they made it on pan and burned to death. Pictures added. I drive weekends to downtown Green tree restaurant to get good quality of food. This food disappointed me and my family. I always give tip even for takeout orders atleast 10%. It used to provide nice quality before but not anymore. And the surroundings of the restaurant are also not very clean .They should adhere to some kind of cleanliness . I always wanted restaurants like this to stay who had good history and should maintain the consistency in their food and should take the job and customer seriously."

The food at this restaurant is incredibly tasty. I have tried the buffet before and there were plenty of vegetarian choices available. My favorites are the garlic naan and butter paneer.

We are in Pittsburgh for the last 5 years but we never came across this restaurant. Was pleasantly surprised, we tried the all we can eat and every dish was excellent. Highly recommend this place!

Food was not delicious. Garlic Naan was bland Pakora was overcooked Lamb palak was bland Bindi masala was ok except about half of the okra was woody and inedible Did not take home leftovers and there was A LOT leftover. Manager was kind and gave us a 10% discount View menu

Astonishingly good food! Some of the best south food in Pittsburgh. My #1 choice for takeout eternally. The Mintt special biryani is especially good. Dined in for the first time tonight and... very poor experience. Service is scant. We had to scavenge our own water glasses. The food they make is amazing--just better experienced outside the restaurant.

I revisited this restaurant after 4 years and tried a few dishes. The Idli was very basic, with fair Sambhar and not-so-great chutney. The Aloo Paratha was disappointing as they used aloo masala from masala dosa instead of the authentic filling. The Samosa Chat was average. However, the Gobi 555 biryani was excellent and the standout dish of our order, prompting us to order more.
