Ordered from Uber Eats because they had a two for one for chicken tikka masala, so that was a great deal. It came with rice, and I got a side order of butter nann. as you can see from the picture there wasn't much chicken, but it was sufficient, and the sauce was really good glad I got two for the price of one otherwise I think I would feel ripped off. the butter nann was huge but a little bland almost reminded me of a pita. I think 3.5 stars is the perfect rating in my opinion but since I can't do half stars, I'm giving them a 4. the delivery was also quick and good, no spilling in the bag.
My favorite place to eat with delicious foods and good customer care in my neighborhood.
My husband and I just came from the restaurant. We live in Middle Village and were looking for a good Indian restaurant. Marsala Kitchen and Lounge was just the place. We thoroughly enjoyed the food. We had Chicken Curry and Lamb Saag and Garlic Naan and Chicken 65 as an appetizer. Everything was delicious. The husband and wife who run the restaurant were most kind and inviting. We will definitely return and would highly recommend it.
Finally we have a good Indian restaurant in the neighborhood. Goat biryani was amazing, goat was just tender it fell off the bone And lasuni gobi(cauliflower) is the best in the City. I will definitely come back again.
Service, food, ambiance was 10/10. My husband and I tried this place for the first time and it did not disappoint. We had fish tikka masala, cauliflower manchurian and butter/garlic naan. Everything was breathtaking, so rich in flavor and delicious. Highly recommend this place!! We'll definitely come back.
I honestly can not believe this restaurant has so many bad reviews. My significant other and I visited this fine establishment, and we were not expecting much but decided to give it a try since Groupon had such a great deal. When we arrived, we thought it was closed because no one was present but after a while a wonderful waitress came and we immediately sat down. We ordered the Pani Puri and Cauliflower Manchurian, and both turned our mood around. The Califlower almost tasted like chicken, and the sauce was a mix of savory and sweet. I'm not the biggest fan of spicy food, but even though this dish was a bit spicy, I LOVED IT! Additionally, whenever Pani Puri is on the menu, I always order it because it's so delicious. The dipping sauce was also great, and I kept it on the table to add to my other dishes. The waitress also told us she made it and gave us an informative description of the difference between Asian cusines. Next, we ordered the Butter Chicken, because you can't go wrong with that dish. We also ordered the Goat Curry, the Mix Platter, the garlic nann, and the cheese nann. The dish I would not order again was the Mix Platter and the cheese nann. The Mix Platter dish had too much chicken but was still delicious, and I couldn't really taste the cheese in the nann. However, the Butter Chicken and the Goat Curry were both amazing. I really want to visit this restaurant again when their bar is built...I really wanted a glass of wine with my food but it wasn't available-just beer. I also want to try their Momo Jhol to see if it compares to the Jackson Heights restaurants.
I gave this restaurant another try and this time food was very delicious. It had all the flavors I was looking for. I can't spell her name but lady in the front was very nice and sweet. I would definitely order from here again. There is also a new chef.
