"I genuinely order this every week or every other week. Most amazing food ever. My friend has been to Michelin Indian places and says this is legit better when I made her try it.
I tell everyone about this place because it's the best Indian I've had in my life. Also the price is great because they give a lot of food."
"The Crab Curry was definitely the standout item for me, nicely spiced and with a very large portion of crab for the price. The Saag Paneer we had asked for spicy but it really wasn't spicy at all, though we still enjoyed it. I found the Murgh Sagwala to be too salty for my taste. I would have preferred it to be more spicy than salty, which I thought it would be from the description. The food was packaged very nicely in a paper bag and good containers, thank you for no styrofoam! Overall, I prefer spicier Indian food (guess I need to go to Devon for that) but I'd come back to order the crab curry again. If you prefer a more mild take on Indian food this place might be perfect for you though! Maybe if you eat at the restaurant rather than delivery they can make it more spicy, I'll have to investigate more if I am ever in the area and craving Indian food."

Absolutely delicious! I ordered the chicken samosas and chicken tikka biryani, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned.

"I’ve ordered from Urban Turban by VeerGi multiple times, and this order was another great experience. The Chole Bhatura was excellent, with flavorful chole that had a rich, well-balanced spice profile and tasted freshly prepared. The bhaturas were soft, fluffy, and generously sized, making the portion more than satisfying.
The food arrived well packaged, and everything was still fresh when I opened it. I especially appreciated that the curry was packed securely with no spills or leaks. The quality and consistency have been impressive across multiple orders, which is one of the reasons I keep coming back.
The portions offer great value for the price, and the flavors feel authentic and comforting. It’s not always easy to find restaurants that consistently deliver both quality and quantity, but Urban Turban has done that for me. The ingredients tasted fresh, the food was filling, and the overall experience exceeded expectations.
Highly recommend the Chole Bhatura to anyone looking for a satisfying meal. Looking forward to ordering again soon!"

"Excellent food. Ordered Chicken Biryani. Portion was enough for at least two meals. It arrived piping hot, and sealed well.
Unfortunately, I failed to request utensils. :(
Good thing I also order some garlic Naan to eat it the traditional way. :)"
"The Veg. Platter (Chef Recommended) is so good! Plenty to share, tasty, nice variety of delicious foods.
We love the Kasmari Naan. It is gently flavored, just a little sweet, but not so much that it can only sit at the dessert table. Kasmari Naan can sit at any table.
Everything was packed so well, I was expecting a few things to have spilled in the process, but everything was perfect and closed tight. It was warm, fresh, and wonderful.
I could say so much more, and all of it would be enthusiastically positive. We hope to order from this restaurant again in the future."

"This is my go-to place for my favorites: Lamb Sahi Korma and Rasmalai - other places sometimes add tomato to their korma sauce but Cumin - Their korma is rich, creamy bright yellow and has just a subtle tinge of heat.
Their Rasmalai are perfect: firm, but moist throughout and not grainy at all.
The Bhatura are great too - a lot of places 'fry' their naan or poori in a skillet or on a griddle, which usually just results in the bread being gross and oily instead of crispy - Cumin flash fries their bread properly so it forms these awesome big crispy bubbles.
other outstanding things I've had from here include their papadam, raita, poori, naan, garlic naan, peshwari naan and Gulaab Jaamun
I'm very picky about my Indian cuisine and I used to have to order certain things I like from different places because I couldn't find a single restaurant that actually makes all the things I like and makes them all really well... until I tried Cumin - since then this has become the only Indian place I order from!"

"Very good! The combo meal is PERFECT for one, but too small to share. I chose the Chicken Tikka Masala and I typically request it on the spicy side, but this was just the right amount of heat. Massive garlic naan and the 10 piece cocktail Samosa is a great appetizer to share. First time having this delivered and I will DEFINITELY be ordering again! "
"Chicken Biryani tasted really good, it comes with 8oz raita and true to the selected spice level. Giving it one less star because the chicken although tasted good, was a bit undercooked. Could see a pinkish hue, but the texture was fine. Should have cooked it just a tad bit longer. "

"Both the Chicken Shahjahani Biryani and the Chicken Tandoori were good, but the portions are a little smaller compared to the other Indian restaurants, but the prices are pretty decent. Will definitely be ordering from here again."
"An amazing balance between taste and value. Little India does not disappoint in ingredients and spices! Meats are tender, veggies aren't mush, and the flavors (my main appeal for Indian!) are fantastic. And these samosas - perfect crisp with carom seeds baked into the dough!! Love this place and the lunch special is so good!"

"Wowowow everything I ordered was fantastic. Paneer Tikka Masala (GF) spicy packed heat without sacrificing flavor, Gobi Manchurian(V) was a great balance of sweet and spicy, still a little crispy even after transport as well. Samosa(V) was perfectly fried and crispy. I love that the naan was also slightly well done. Will definitely be a regular here!! "
"I think the food was so good, I'm disappointed on the portion size. I got the butter chicken pasta dish and barely half the box was even filled. I ordered it with chicken included and there was barely any in it. I also got the chicken 65, I think portion size was good but it was an appetizer label and was super expensive
The flavor was really good but I'm sad about the portion size. Was expecting more"
