"The Chicken Mayo Roll - Chicken tikka, onions and garlic mayo was good overall, but the chicken pieces were too big. Also, the sauce tasted more like cheese than garlic mayo but chicken was soft and flavor was there"
"the Paneer Tikka Roll was too dry. needed less paneer cubes and more rest of the fillings. the Veggie Cheese Roll was just... bad. too gooey but also bland and somehow old.
the portions are great, each Roll is enough for a meal but the flavor needs to be vastly improved. also the initial image is AI generated I think because they dont use flaky parantha just deep fried Rumali roti (which isnt bad but again, should not market it as flaky parantha)."

"Sundara Just Dethroned My Tandoori Chicken Champion! 🏆🔥
If you haven’t seen the movie Once Upon a Time in Mexico, consider this your sign to watch it, specifically the scene, “Try the Pibil.” Trust me, it'll all make sense.
I travel nationwide for business, and I've eaten tandoori chicken from coast to coast. Until now, Philadelphia has held the crown for the best I've ever had. That was until Sundara stepped into the ring.
The tandoori chicken. Juicy, perfectly seasoned, with just the right amount of char. Absolutely nailed it.
The garlic cheese naan. Folks, I'm not exaggerating when I say it curled my toes. That good.
But here's the thing. Nobody goes three for three, right? There's always that one part of the meal that doesn't quite live up to the others.
Lastly, the rice. I know, I know. It's just rice. But to me, it's so much more than that. Rice is Robin to Batman, Mater to Lightning McQueen. It's the supporting character that makes the whole story work. Without it, you're watching a movie with no sound. Sure, you can follow along, but something's missing.
And let me tell you, Sundara's rice didn't just show up to play a supporting role. It climbed into the cockpit, fired up the engines, and suddenly Kenny Loggins' Danger Zone was blasting as the F-14s rolled toward the runway!
Sundara didn't just compete with my longtime Philly favorite, it knocked it off the throne.
If you're looking for a great evening, watch, Once Upon a Time in Mexico and order in some Sundara.
Thank me later, you won't be disappointed. "

"Based on food from around 10 to 15 different Indian restaurants, this place has the best South Indian food. Thank you so much! Special mention to the packaging for delivery. The only place that sends dosa separately packed so it doesn't lose its texture, shape, and crispiness. Kudos to your efforts and consideration."
"If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. The food is absolutely delicious... authentic South Indian flavors, perfectly spiced and seasoned, and the dosas are wonderfully crisp. Just a tip: dosas are always best fresh, so I definitely recommend eating in the restaurant rather than taking them to go. South Indian food doesn’t travel as well, and this spot is worth enjoying in their location."

But every dish was a party in my mouth from the Samosa Chaat to the Vegetable Samosa (2 pcs.)and the Chicken Momo (Nepali)! Glad I over ordered bc I'm happy to make several meals out of this.

"Absolutely delicious packed to perfection for delivery!! We ordered Garlic Naan Butter Chicken Daal Makhni and basmati rice came with it!!"
"The food is flavorful with the right amount of spice—especially for me. When mixed with the rice, it balances out just right. I’m from Texas, and I will say it is seasoned and spicy to my liking as well.
The food doesn’t seem like a lot at first, but it is definitely filling.
I actually bought this once before maybe a week ago but forgot to upload the picture, so I’ll upload it with this one. The older one is the picture with the cut-up naan, and today’s meal is the picture with the whole naan. Although it’s cut up in the older photo, I do believe the naan added up to a whole piece.
The naan is very garlicky (aromatic)and flavorful—definitely homemade, which makes it worth the price!"

"Super amazing!! We have tried so many indian places in the area and this is top tier with Indigo. This place reminds me of my childhood in texas eating at indian buffets with my family. The portions are amazing and so worth the price compared to other indian joints. We got the Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala along with Naan and mango lassi's for our first time trying and it has immediately become our go-to. "

"Food was really good and nice to see some interesting options which turned out well (Kale goat cheese olive kulcha naan, Quinoa Sun Dried Tomato Kale Kofta Turmeric & Coconut Sauce, Spinach Pakora Chaat, Lashooni Cauliflower). Felt like quality food too, not super oily like some places. My only critiques, if I had to nitpick, are I wish the naan was much thinner and wish the goat cheese kulcha had more actual goat cheese (was a very minor amount, flecks here and there, vs I hoped for it as a filling/spread inside). Would not hesitate to order any of the items again though."
"The best Indian food, hands down!!! They are willing to make any sauce vegan. When I found out I'm allergic to casein I could no longer eat Indian food. Thanks to Spice Kraft and their willingness to use coconut milk, instead of yogurt and milk, I've fallen in love with Indian food all over again! The chettinadu is amazing, the vegan blueberry rice pudding is incredible, vegetable korma...everything is awesome! I order from here every time I'm in DC!"

"This is as close to actual Indian food as you can get in DC. Everything was great. The kadhai mutton was as good as I've had in India. The chicken 65 was a bit more sour than I expected but five stars nonetheless. The kulcha is surprisingly large and soft, and goes well with the curry. Would order again."

"Really well packed, and the taste is excellent—the vegetables are very fresh. I ordered the half portion and received three pieces of chicken, which is quite small. I would definitely order again, but I’d go for the full-size portion of protein next time."
"The Butter Chicken was good, and portion sizes are great as far as meat included.
Mini Samosas were good, the sauces included are strong but complimented well.
Garlic naan was $3 for one piece. And once I got it, it was very stale, crunchy and seemingly burnt.
I wouldn't go ordering extra naan. It's not worth the price and the quality is lacking."

"If you are looking for traditional Indian favourites, this place is for you. We have been ordering delivery from them for years, and have eaten in a few times. Consistent, excellent food. It is the Butter Chicken you have been craving (not called butter chicken on the menu, which is a little annoying, so I ask for it when I call), the Rogan Josh, the Samosas. All excellent. If you want spicy, you have to ask for it. They have dumbed down the spice for the American palette. Also, call to order. They lose money when they have to pay an outside delivery service. "

"there is so much meat in the lamb Biriyani. I ordered the medium but it still has a kick to it. it came with a lot of raita which had a good cucumber taste. it's very seasoned and flavorful. the Chicken 65 is also very flavorful and it has plenty of sauce so it's not dry. I also like that the chicken is crispy."
"The curries were bland yet overly sweet. The main flavor was cream with just a hint of spices. Very mild flavor. Not my favorite. The portion sizes were decent for the price, and the naan was pretty good as well, but overall I was disappointed."
