We were looking for an Indo Chinese menu for a while. While visiting NYC, we randomly stumbled upon this place on google maps. So we called over.
The restaurant is cozy and can accommodate about 25-30 people. So please book in advance and come. The staff there are quick and very helpful.
We placed the order and the service was very quick. The hot and sour soup was the first item for me here. One sip and I felt like I was back in Bombay. I am lost for words as to how amazing the soup was and right away I knew I was in for a great treat. The dry gobi manchurian was an absolute delight. Our conversation changed from whatever topic it was to how amazing the food is followed by silence and there was a battle between the spoon and mouth was underway.
The main course of Hakka noodles was probably the best I have had in years. The Hakka fried rice was equally brilliant. American Chopsuey and three layered schezwan rice were equally good.
The quantity per plate is enough for 3 people to share.
For dessert mango kulfi again set a new standard for us.
I told the chef that we need a branch with same taste in Ireland. Absolutely brilliant and will make it a point to visit every time I come to this city.
To close
The chicken biryani lunch box is all I could ever dream of. Delicious.
Edit: I went again and it was just as great as the first go-around. In the second instance they gave me free kheer with my order.
Let me add that they are very swift (10mins) in having lunch boxes ready.
We came here on a Sunday evening, with reservations since it was quite busy. The service was prompt and friendly. There were lots of things on the menu to choose from, all of them halal. I tried the lamb seekh kababs which were full of flavour and seasoned really well. The chilli chicken was another tasty item. The noodles were alright but not as good as the other things. The restaurant is clean, including the bathroom. Overall it was a positive experience, and I would definitely try it again.
