"got the mexitaco salad which was satisfying in all ways from amt of chicken (which was a lot) to the bite sized everything. nacho fries is your fries with the right amt of cheese sauce that didnt make it too soggy nor too dry. always love ordering from these restaurants in Intl. bites!"
"Chicken biryani was much spicier than expected, with no mention of spice level on the menu. For $17, the portion was overwhelmingly rice-heavy, with only 2 drumsticks and a very small piece of breast, which felt like poor value. The rice was also noticeably oily. The overall experience was made worse by poor communication. When I called the listed number, there was no introduction of the business, and I had to say hello multiple times before getting a response. On top of that, the order had to be reassigned after a driver left without the food, which added to the confusion and delay. While that may not be entirely on the restaurant, it reflects a lack of coordination. Even small details were disappointing—the utensils provided were extremely small and impractical. Overall, this was a frustrating experience from start to finish. Between the lack of clarity, poor value, and communication issues, I would not order again—especially with better halal options in the area."
