That was EXCEPTIONAL FOOD! We popped in for a quick surprise dinner, with the family. We order a family meal package and every single item was delicious. Even the kids who are picky eaters liked everything we tried. We spoke to the owner, Malik, and he had a great deal to tell us about the food and the preparation in about our local community. It was a wonderful evening and a great surprise.

My partner picked this place on a whim today. Houston has a ton of great Indian food but this was, hands down, the BEST I've ever tasted. The woman who provided service to us was warm and attentive. It's a little far from my house, but when I'm on Sugarland, this is where I will eat every time.
Placed a few orders ahead of time and the order is always ready exactly on time. They always put a lot of food which is amazing because it's tastes great. For the raita lovers, they give you a large cup to enjoy with your overflowing biryani. Quantity and quality this place is top notch and they text you special offers and deals so I'm always coming back for more.
Love this place !!!! Amazing goat chops, Aga’s has competition now (btw I love Aga’s!). We had the goat chops super tender perfectly grilled great flavor, the mixed grill was awesome especially the seekh kabobs , the roti is great, the chai was amazing. Friendly service. Will definitely come again!
one of my favorite indian restaurants in sugarland. they probably have the best garlic naan i’ve ever had in my life. tikka masala is also very good. i would recommend takeout the restaurant isn’t really vibey inside. definitely worth a visit!
Chicken 65, garlic Nihari, biryani, goat kadi were so tasty. Supper authentic with unique flavors. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a unique tasty twist to Indian food.
