Received notice from Grubhub that the restaurant canceled my order a full ten minutes after my food was supposed to have be delivered. “Out of menu item.” What kind of Indian Restaurant runs out if butter chicken and garlic naan?! Tragic and starving. Even worse, a Grubhub driver’s time was wasted. This poor guy out here trying to make money and he got robbed of his time and a good tip instead. Wish I could tip him anyway. Shame on whoever us running this apparent scam.

Jesus Christ. What a mess. I didn’t think it was possible to mess up butter chicken but somehow they (or whatever restaurant I got food from did). I don’t think they actually have a location and I think the food came from mood. This place is probably some kind of scam run by a bunch of shady philly

The worst food ever they cheat with the ingredients my lamb biryani was just bones of lamb no meat

first experience was Grubhub. delivery delayed and food arrived cold. anything that is described as "chicken morsels" will be neckbones and puny drumsticks. NOTHING looks like the photos. half the order was missing and when I called the number on file, I reached the franchise starter who could not care less about his "many" restaurants.

We ordered from Gunpowder Cafe via GrubHub and it was GREAT. I had the deconstructed Samosa Chaat, the Lamb Vindaloo, the Lamb Biryani as well as the naan and roti. I also had the sweet lassi - everything arrived hot and was DELICIOUS. Definitely would order again and they also have great GrubHub reviews.

I can back up what others are saying. It's a scam by delivery apps. After a delivery Driver couldn't find the restaurant I hunted down our food myself and it was a small local-owned restaurant. The mark-up is insanely high. Straight up a scam. Look up the address it says it's at and order from there if you like it.

ORDER THROUGH DOORDASH FROM YOUR RESTUARENT IS NOT DELIVERED, DOORDASH TELLS ME TO CONTACT YOU, UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS NO NUMBER FOR YOUR BUSINESS. THIS IS TOTAL SHAMEFUL THAT MONEY IS BEING ROBBED

Ordered Butter Chicken Peshawari, Dal and a few other things from here. Chicken was rubbery and the gravy was so watered down and tasteless. Dal was bland. Really bad experience ordering food from here.

They have a network of Indian restaurants under them—not even called Gunpowder Cafe. Those restaurants will cancel orders for no reason when ordered online through @Grubhub.

Ordered butter chicken and garlic naan through Postmates. Arrived warm but the order of naan was missing. Messed up the entire meal. Butter chicken was not too bad. I live close by and they posted a 30 minute delivery time which was actually an hour. Will not order there again.

I ordered through DoorDash and they said “we could not see that you made an order.” They don’t even have a number to contact the restaurant. I waited two hours until I finally just called the restaurant. Luckily I was about to get a refund through door dash. This was a miss. Do not order food from here through the app.

Ordered samoas, paneer naan, mango smoothie, and gulab jamun. I thought it was good! packaged well for delivery too.

Food arrived hot and quickly. Good portion sizes...enough for 2nds the next day. Spicing was perfect. We ordered dishes from mild to maximum hot. Rice was a bit clumpy, but everything else was very good. Will order again.

Never order from here because they will cancel it anyways all the time !! Not sure if they do that in dine in as well ...My suggestion if you do not have the food delivery thing set up please remove your listing from the food delivery apps.Its highly frustrating when you dream that your biriyani is on your way and you end up seeing a cancelled order!!Attaching some heart wrenching screenshots of my cancelled orders ?
