We were late after a music event and went in just around the time they were beginning to shut down but the lady there was very kind and asked us to take time to order and served us some really hot starters and naans and curries. We were 8 of us and we left the place tummy full thanking her profusely for both the kindness and the quality of food. Everything was very tasty!
Genuinely some of the best Indian takeout in Oakland. Whether for pickup or delivery it always piping hot and 10/10. For my gluten free baddies the options are endless. The people who run this establishment are kind and hardworking. I love you Marigold😍
Unsure why this is so highly rated. A 3.5 at best. 1. Chicken tandoori: 4/5 Was a bit too tomatoey. Fresh but not what I expected. 2. Garlic naan and keema paratha: 3/5 Too thick and rustic. Felt more like rural central Asian bread than a Mughlai one. I love my Caucasus cooking but that’s not what I ordered. 3. Chicken tikka masala: 3.5/5 Decent but felt not really Indian. Hard to explain why. Can order again for a re-analysis. 4. Chai: 3.5/5 There was a grassy after-taste to it but not really in a bad way. It was warm so we made the most of it. Chai took about 20min to appear and food another 15min after. Kinda slow service. Not many places to sit inside. Table wobbles. Door left open to let the cold inside. Kinda feel bad giving a not-so-high rating but hoping the management sees this and improves. Has potential. Will try again later to revisit this review.
The curry dishes don’t come with rice. Paying $20 for a chicken tikka masala without rice is really disappointing. The portion was small, the chicken pieces were few, and the flavor wasn’t great either. The lady at the counter was nice, but spending over $50 for two people and still leaving hungry doesn’t feel right. Unfortunately, I won’t be coming back.
Hole in the wall with delicious food! Today we had saag with potatoes (medium spicy was SO tasty) and vegetable korma with vegetable dumplings and sesame naan. Big fan of the sesame naan! Our usual order is bindi (okra) and lamb vindaloo, and veggie samosas - all of which we consistently love. My husband also got the cumin-spiced lemonade but thought it was a bit salty.
