"Wow! We've had some pretty subpar Indian on Door Dash and this is by far the best Indian food I've had in a long time! I called to ask if they could make the Aloo Gobi extra spicy and it was perfect. The Samosa Chaat was a perfect blend of spicy and sweet and the Chicken Tikka Masala was everything you'd want it to be.
The portions were smaller than expected, but I would much rather have quality over quantity. Will happily be ordering again! "

"Veg. Jhol Momo (8 Pieces) , Paneer Tikka Masala, and Vegetable Korma (Contains Dairy/nuts) were very tasty. Veg. Biryani was reason I ordered from this restaurant and it did not disappoint. Has a little kick. When I order again I'd get an extra side of raita. The side that came with the rice was quite small. "
"Lamb chops were completely pink on the inside and tasted raw. I had to spit it out immediately. It was also very chewy. And portion sizes were very small given the price (about $28 but portions were worth maybe $17-18; even that may be generous).

"A True Taste of India - Absolutely Outstanding! 5-STARS
If you're looking for an authentic Indian dining experience, look no further than Noor! From the moment you step in, the warm and inviting ambiance, combined with the aroma of rich spices, transports you straight to India.
The food was exceptional! The dishes were velvety and bursting with mouthwatering flavors. The biryani was fragrant and perfectly spiced, the decadent desserts had just the right amount of sweetness, and the presentation was beautifully executed. Every dish was cooked to perfection, using high-quality ingredients and traditional homemade techniques.
The service was equally impressive--attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. The staff made excellent recommendations, ensuring we had the best experience possible.
With generous portions, reasonable prices, and an unforgettable dining experience, this place is a must-visit for Indian food lovers. Can't wait to return! Highly recommend!"

"The Naan is very good. The rest of the food is not worth the price.... you get a measly portion of the main along with a small portion of daal and a huge portion of plain rice and and some plain salad leaves. Rogan Josh meatballs only 2 medium sized HARD as rocks meatballs - NOT worth the price. Waste of money can't eat them. The biryani arrived with the yogurt spilled over half the biryani....it looks like the yogurt has spoiled and tasted sour. Had to eat around the rice that was doused in yogurt.
Their food is usually good the problem is mostly the packaging and maybe a bad day with the meatballs. Please improve your packaging and portion sizes."

"Delicious and fresh flavor! This is one of my new favorite restaurants. The portions are large and great for a family of three. 10/10 would order again. Especially the Honey Cauliflower, I was expecting it to be super sweet but it's just right. The Potato Peas Samosa's are pretty big and not too hard or soft, just the right amount of crunch, and the inside is a perfect softness, not mushy at all. The Tamarind Rice was not greasy like most places, and super fluffy! Mango Lassi is smooth with a rich yogurt flavor. And lastly the Plain Naan is the cherry on top, easy to eat and cooked just right 10/10. All alongside the amazing quality, we got pretty cool bags and even had enough for leftovers. :)"

"LITTI CHOKHA and Dahi Vada Chaat both were amazing. Loved the authentic taste."
"I was looking forward to the food because of all the great reviews! I ordered delivery due to recovering from a medical procedure. I wanted to treat myself because of having gone through all that.
The chicken biryani is supposed to come with a whole Cornish hen --- it literally says this on their menu. The TINY container only included a quarter of that. It was so sad-looking. I had imagined that even if they couldn't fit the whole hen, that they would maybe split it into at least two containers? I would've expected more for a menu item that cost $32. It was also supposed to include garlic raita, which was nowhere to be seen.
I also got the much-raved-about Alleppey fish & prawn curry ($34), which similarly left much to be desired. The gravy here actually didn't taste that different from the biryani's korma sauce.
Disappointed in what feels like lesser quality and care when it comes to folks who aren't able-bodied enough to eat at the restaurant. If you're ordering to-go/delivery, definitely DO NOT order the chicken biryani or the fish and prawn curry. You'll wish you saved the money/Doordash credits. I don't think I'd order from here again.

"I recently tried the Chicken Momo lapping and Khana set at 4 Dreams Nepal I & Indian Cuisine, and it was a great experience overall.
The Chicken Momo lapping was the highlight. The momos were soft, juicy, and well stuffed with flavorful minced chicken. The “lapping” style, covered in a rich, slightly spicy sesame based sauce, added a creamy and tangy kick that made the dish stand out. The sauce was balanced not too spicy, but enough to give a nice warmth. The portion size was generous and perfect for sharing, although I could easily finish it myself because it was that good.
The Khana set felt like a complete and comforting meal. It came with rice, dal, vegetable curry, chicken curry, achar, and salad. The rice was fresh and fluffy. The dal was simple yet comforting, with a homestyle Nepali flavor. The chicken curry was tender and well cooked, with spices blended nicely without being overpowering. The achar added the perfect spicy and tangy contrast to the meal. Everything tasted fresh and authentic, just like traditional Nepali home cooking.
The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Overall, I would definitely recommend 4 Dreams Nepal I & Indian Cuisine for anyone craving authentic Nepali and Indian food, especially their Chicken Momo lapping and Khana set. I will definitely be going back again."
"Chicken Tikka Masala was way too sweet and lacked any spice. Tasted like it came from a can. Chowmein was greasy and tasted like burnt oil. chicken was dry and chewy in both dishes. Samosa (2 Pieces) was soggy and bland."

"Wow! Some of the best Indian food I've ever had. The Prawn Tikka Masala was amazing, I'm sure the chicken TM would be ever better but my bf doesn't eat chicken so we compromised this time. The Saag Paneer - amazing as well. Neither were too spicy, which we prefer. If you want spice I'd include it in the special instructions. The Garlic Naan and Butter Naan were okay, can't really go wrong with naan bread but could've been a little better taste/texture. Overall amazing! As far as portions go - one order of basmati rice is enough for 2 people. Wasn't sure since it was only $2.95 but it's a good amount! Veggie Vegetable Samosa were good too, could've used a bit more diverse spices/veggies. Added some mango Mango Chutney and it was definitely better that way. "
"I have ordered from here multiple times. Their vindaloo is delicious, packed with flavor and perfectly portioned for price. The lamb is so tender, it falls apart with just a fork. It always arrives hot and fresh, and I will continue to order from here, whenever I want Indian cuisine. Their garlic naan is amazing! If you are into cheesy naan, it's great too. I ordered it by accident one day, and was pleasantly surprised. (I don't usually do cheese naan.) great packaging is simple, and efficient! It keeps everything hot for arrival, and it can easily be used to store any leftovers, without dirtying any dishes."

"Ok. So, wasn't exoecting to really enjoy the Calcutta Chicken Hakka Noodles and the Chicken 65. Flavorful, and just spicy enough to enjoy it. Chicken Tikka Masala and naan were ok-to-good. Didn't disappoint, but didn't wow either. Overall, will definitely order from here, and probably will want to try some of their lesser known dishes. The quantity was quite generous for the price and overall, nicely packaged and presented well. "
"This was the first time we have ordered from Chandi. The food was good but lacked any spice. It would be nice if you could indicate spice level. Even the Lamb Vindaloo which is called "spicy" was more of a medium spice level. We liked the Saag Panner and the Chicken Tikka but again no option to choose a spice level. The food was well packed and arrived hot. Overall the food was good, a bit pricy, but good."

"This was so yummy! I ordered the Saag Aloo and the mild spice level was just right. They chives on the Naan really complimented the Saag.
Also had Kheer... which was the best I have ever had. The food tasted fresh, was well packaged, and has been my favorite food since coming in Oakland.
Even convinced my husband that he DOES like Indian food. "
"Marigold makes the absolute best aloo gobi (spicy) in the Oakland/Berkeley area. I have ordered it twice this week! As the spicy is pretty spicy, I usually get it with something creamy like the chicken tikka masala or madras curry-both also excellent. "
