A real mom and pop shop! The food was so good. My boyfriend and I got chicken tikka masala, rice, samosa, and regular naan and garlic naan.It was so good. I got mild spicy and my boyfriend got medium. The mild was good, not any spice and still flavorful. The medium had a really nice heat to it.Definitely want to come back.

2 plates: 12.99tiki masala and 13.50 butter chicken, rice sold separately, garlic naan sold separately, $2 bottle water, 3.99 powder tea, mango lassi small 4.99, I got charged $68 (15% fee) and tax and the prices went up a dollar, but it wasn’t reflected on our menu. Then a sketchy guy showed up and didn’t pay for his meal. I felt bad for the owner, but not cool that he overcharged me.

Portions is so small for the price. This place is a little too comfortable and questionable walking in. Food was okay but wouldn't come back.

This place is the best Pakistani cuisine place near Downey. The place is a mom and paps owned restaurant. It is a small hole in the wall, but do not let the atmosphere deceive you. The food is delicious. Try the chicken briyani , Nehari, chicken Tikka, paya, and of course the Naan. Really good comfort food with a bit spicy and sweet flavor.P.s.It's not the same as Indian food but has similarities ?

Everything was wonderful! Tried something new instead of getting the same Indian dish as always and was surprised at the new flavor that melted on my tongue. It was such a tasty dish will be ordering more often, so glad to be led here by a taste of eggplant and Indian food!

Worst service. Worst food. Its a mom-pop restaurant. Super small serving (literally a small bowl) and its overpriced. The updated menu is included in this review. The bread/rice is not included, you have to pay extra. Water is not free. Taste is also bland. Save your money and don’t go to this place. Super tight parking in-front. The owner blamed us for something we didn’t do. THEY WILL CHARGE 15% GRATUITY for parties of 4+. We got billed extra for some reason, very sketchy place. I don’t recommend going here, not coming back. Me and my family went to this place so you don’t have to suffer. This place should be shut down.

Good food but they really need to increase the portion size of the food, especially the chicken tikka masala which needs more chicken.

Food was perfectly delicious. Always my go to place when craving for some biryani. Price is very economical and the service was great. My guy Sam always prepares my biryani hot and fresh from the pan. Tho the ambiance is a little off but that's fine because for me food quality and great service are more important than that. I highly recommend their biryani and tikka masala, perfect combo and i promise, you won't regret it.

This food is made w love! I absolutely loved my experience here. Let me explain, I live in Downey and was about to drive to Cerritos after a long day of driving and running errands w some shopping peppered in. I decided to google a place near my home and I was 5 minutes away from here. I drive up and was greeted by the nicest gentleman who assured me the food would be delicious! Well let me say it was life-changing! Eating food like this makes me want to learn the recipes myself. Glad I got to enjoy your food and hope you have a lot of success in your business!

Food tasted great but not served with Basmati Rice which I found odd since every other Indian food restaurant at least I've been to provides it. Not the end of the world by any means but if you're expecting it and don't see it, they don't offer it as part of the entree. The restaurant itself is a little dirty and on the messy side of things which makes me wonder about the kitchen area. For that reason, I'm not likely to ever patronize this one again. I probably "don't wanna know". :)
