Desi Dhaba

Dal Makhani

Slow-cooked black lentils in a buttery, deeply spiced tomato base — the kind that improves the longer it simmers, with a richness that coats the back of a spoon

Butter Chicken

Tender chicken in a velvety tomato-cream sauce with warm spicing — a reliable benchmark dish that earns its place here

Palak Paneer

Fresh paneer cubes in a smooth, well-seasoned spinach gravy — the vegetarian workhorse that holds up across the menu

Garlic Naan

Tandoor-blistered flatbread slicked with garlic butter — the right vehicle for sweeping up any of the curries

Samosa

Crisp, golden pastry filled with spiced potato and peas — a solid starter, best eaten fresh before they soften

Chicken Biryani

Fragrant basmati layered with spiced chicken — a complete one-dish meal that travels well for takeout

Chicken Tikka Masala

Grilled chicken chunks in a tangy, mildly spiced tomato gravy — a crowd-pleaser that's consistent if not revelatory here
