I lost my laundry card so I had to actually go out to do laundry. Good for me because I found a really nice Indian restaurant right next door to the laundromat. The menu is large with a very good list of traditional Indian food. Everything is made fresh, even the lassi. I’m totally impressed. Ab, and Abir were my hosts and they are very nice well mannered people. The menu offers 20 different vegetarian dishes and 5 side dish offers. That’s a lot for any restaurant. Vegans should ask about certain dishes. It’s walking distance from me, and no one likes fresh baked nan with sag paneer more then me. They even offer spicy like they eat it at home. I’m so elated.

Great spot for a quick lunch meal in the hood if you love Indian, fair priced and made to order this little gem has always been a favorite of mine, it won’t win any massive awards but you will leave happy and full with a twinge of spice on your lips. I had the veggie lunch great price and licked the plate clean! Will return again.

From the same owner as the original Taj Mahal on 6th St in Manhattan two decades ago. Also the same owner as Taj Mahal on 3rd Ave in BK. Prices have doubled since 20 yrs for a lunch special (12.99 tax, seafood a bit more). Comes with pappadam, mulligatawny, chutney, naan, entree and rice. Kinda close to the Metropolitan L train and the Grand Ave buses. spiced pretty well just like I remembered it
