This place has both outdoor and indoor dining. It is a self-serve restaurant so we went and picked up cutlery, crockery etc ourselves. It was around 1 pm when we arrived. On inquiry, we were told that kababs were not available so we ordered chicken karahi, chicken biryani and naan which arrived on our table in 10 or so minutes. The serving size was decent. The biryani tasted more like pulao than authentic biryani. The karahi, while fresh was average. Best part of the meal were the fresh, piping hot naan.The items are priced cheaply, which is why this place is still running but attention to hygiene as far as dining area is concerned will go a long way to attract more customers.The place is filthy and decrepit for sure. Owners have paid no attention to decor and ambience and while this is near UC Berkeley where the students may not focus that much on ambience/decor, this place has potential to attract a lot more customers if attention to certain minor things is made.
Nice meal but they simply couldn’t be bothered about additional instructions. Countless of time, I’ve specified my need for utensils only to be disappointed when the order is delivered. How do you expect me to eat the meal?

Came here at the recommendation of a friend who had spent time in Berkeley years earlier. The counter and seating area was quite dirty and service appeared disinterested. We promptly walked out because, if the front of the restaurant is so dirty and poorly managed, what does the kitchen look like? Yikes!
The food itself tasted fine to me but the place is quite filthy and there is never someone at the counter to order from. The place is kind of decrepit and seems to share an entrance with a sketchy motel. In an effort to find the person to order from i walked by an abandoned lounge area with a large dirty sectional couch and also another storage-type room with paper all over it.
Some great food !! Self service restaurants like all the other ones nearby (meaning you place an order at the register , get a number and grab your own silverware/cutlery which is all located near the register and grab a seat) however unlike the other restaurants nearby the restaurant actually brings the food to wherever your seated. Good pricing and lots of different options to choose from . The chicken tikka masala had a delicious sauce / lamb curry was made with boneless lamb leg cutlets and had a good sauce / chicken Karahi medium spicy was so good (favorite)/ veg biryani was special. Enjoyed all the foods . Good rate , high quality meats(Farm Fresh All Natural Halal) and good food.
Super bad experience please don't waste money and time staff didn't even pay attention what you want worst place
Stay away. Horrible service, clueless staff. Only half of the order arrived after an hour of waiting. No utensils no drinks, after multiple attempts of getting service no luck just left. Will never be back again.
Super, super, almost inedibly salty food. The naan is great though, so it balances out to be a kind of ok place.
Always have a delicious time coming and having a great meal at the restaurant . All the Curries priced fairly and the staples always hit the spot . Free tea with meal is also a bonus . Very relaxed environment and good quality food .
