"chandni chowk is the best at whatever they make. I used to visit them in fremont very often. I tried Islam chicken with rumali roti in santa Clara which was mouthwatering, extremely Delicious! so soft chicken just melts in your mouth even before you bite it, it just melts there leaving the juice and Taste behind. Staffs are too humble and extremely polite.Satisfaction in all the area is Guaranteed"
"Rumali roti was so bad. It tasted like they put uncooked oil on it and it was hard as a rock.
Dal makhani had no salt and just looks a day old.
Papri Chaat was extremely soggy and the portion was so tiny!"

i recently ordered Dhaba Chicken which was amazing. This time I tried the Achari Chicken , I can now confirm their chicken non-veg entrees are among the better options in Bay area. I look forward to trying the mutton & seafood dishes in future."
"Sufi Kaju Chicken cashew based white gravy with methi is really nice, good flavor & different from the usual non veg entrees. I still prefer the Dhaba Chicken since I'm fond of spicy food, but highly recommend trying this once.

The food and service is amazing, the restaurant is very clean and staff is friendly. The butter chicken has perfect amount of masala as well as the chicken 65, which are my personal favorites."
"The Chicken Biryani, ButterChicken, an Garlic Chicken tasted quite good, was fresh, portions were okay, more chicken would have been nicer especially since the butter chicken and garlic chicken were $20 each and were just put in medium size containers with no sides. $62 for these 3 items...

"Bhel Puri quantity was hardly anything. The price to quantity ratio does not match. Pani Paani Puri (Gol Gappe) – 7 Pieces is not gol gappe. It is ragda puri. They don't give you potatoes with it. You get ragda. Imli chutney was authentic."

"This is my go to place for Hara Bara Kebab! Hands down best in the area. The Paneer Tikka is delicious as well. Cooked to the right consistency with perfect amount of marination.
I was a little disappointed with the green Chutney however. The curd was over fermented (possibly spoiled). I got a very strong whiff of pungent sour smell as soon as I opened the container. When I tasted it, it was definitely spoilt! The restaurant should give curd based cold items in a separate bag from warm items to avoid situations like this! "

"Excellent value for delicious meals. The Mushroom Korma & paneer and the Chicken Saag were both excellent (I got medium spice and they were great with Raita and Mango Chutney). Loved the Vegetable Pakoras (8 Pieces) that came with mint chutney and tamarind chutney. The plain naan was lovely. The Korma and Saag were 2 for the price of one and I got 4 servings from each container for a total of 16 delicious servings at a very competitive price! We also love their rice pudding. My family and I order from Punjab at least once a week now.."
"Ordered in advance, Punjab Cafe accepted the order around 6:40pm and I received the order at 7:10pm (asked for 7-7:20 delivery)
I ordered the 24oz Butter Chicken (which is HUGE), the Chicken Tikka, Garlic Naan, a small rice (enough for 3 people), and 2 orders of the Vegetable Samosas (4 total)
Everything was piping hot and wrapped with extra care. Definitely enough food for 4 people
The Butter Chicken is a delicious tandoori style chicken in a creamy butter sauce. I ordered mild but will try medium next time as mild literally has no spice
The Chicken Tikka was my favorite. I ordered medium and it had the perfect amount of spice. It comes with onions and peppers with are an added bonus. Each piece of chicken is a sizable chunk (about 2 inches cubed)
The Vegetable Samosas are nice and crunchy. I typically like them spicier, but they were still delicious"

Laal Maas had the best flavor (although not authentic) but lamb was a bit chewy. Chilli Chicken tasted more like Manchurian chicken.

"Butter Chicken is full of rich flavors and drenched in sauce. Side of Basmati Rice was made per , not too soft not too hard. Just the right consistency. Combined together made the perfect duo. Garlic nan was too hard and crumbled quickly. Mango Lassi was a little water cup. Not worth the buck but was good. Dinner was DELICIOUS. Will be ordering again! Thank you."
"There were a few issues with my order. The butter chicken is not made fresh. You can tell by the way it is congealed in its container. As if they prep out the food ahead of time and warm up the food in the containers. The chicken is old and rubbery and dry and stained. The sauce is separating and does not combine well, when it should be smooth, like butter. The garlic Naan also tastes pre-cooked and just reheated. It tastes like stale warm bread. After having a bite of the over spicy coagulated mess of a butter chicken, my tongue is on fire, and the $4.99 basmati rice could not save me. Why is it not included with the butter chicken entree? To further screw the patron? Furthermore, I can't taste a lick of garlic or butter on this lifeless flatbread.
This meal was past its expiration and a huge regret. When did re-heating this weeks leftovers pass off as restaurant delivery? I want my money back."

"Excellent cake! Very tasty and moist and mango flavor comes through with fresh cut mango as well"

The flavor was not too sweet, not too bland, layered with cream inside, and was moist. Thank you for making her birthday special!"

"44. Chicken Karahi was a 2.5/5. It had a lot of oil just dripping out but most importantly lacked any rich flavor to go along with it.
Tandoori paneer was a 2/5. The paneer had very little flavor again.
The good thing was that the order was fast but that doesn't compensate for the taste.
I would recommend looking at similar dishes from Mantra India from Mountain view to see how you can improve both your dishes. They are my favorite."

"Definitely the best CHICKEN MOMO in the Bay Area but I could do with a thinner momo coating. As the momos cooled down, their coating started to dry up a bit and thicken.

"Butter chicken arrived warm, perfect spice level. Garlic naan is super tasty, love the flavor and cilantro. Would definitely order again"
"The Butter Chicken tasted more like an Italian take on Indian food than actually carry authentic flavour. Too much tomato, not enough Indian spices. The spice level is just chilli, again missing flavouring in the chicken. Not worth the price, but the restaurant discount made it acceptable. The plastic packaging was practically melting holding the hot curry, so please avoid if you're conscious about microplastic consumption.
Garlic Naan was alright but tad overpriced I feel.
However hygiene factor and freshness was good for Indian restaurants (tell you more tomorrow, haha). Portions were okay, I'll order again but try different dishes."

"Overall the food was amazing. The Shahi Paneer-Royal Taste-Best In Town was fantastic with complex flavor and included cashews (a good sign!) and tons of paneer. Mango lassis were yummy. Garlic Naan was very flat, not fluffy, but still had good flavor. Chutneys for the Veggie Samosas had a strange flavor"

"21. Lahori Choley, a traditional Punjabi chickpea curry, is an absolute delight at Khan's. The rich blend of spices, the tender chickpeas, and the flavorful gravy create a symphony of taste that transports me back to the streets of Lahore. Each bite is a burst of authentic flavors that are both comforting and satisfying.
35. Chapli Kabob (2 Pcs.) , a signature dish from Khan karahi, is a true masterpiece of flavor and texture. Each succulent bite of tender meat, marinated to perfection with a blend of aromatic spices, took my taste buds on a delightful journey. The smoky aroma and charred edges added an authentic touch, reminiscent of traditional tandoor cooking.
Overall, I highly recommend Lahori Choley and Chapli Kabob to anyone craving authentic Pakistani cuisine. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries or savory rice dishes. Both of these have something to satisfy your cravings. "
