We live walking distance from here and are always able to smell fantastic smells when passing. We tried desi dhaba a few months ago and have made this one of our go to Indian food restaurants in central. They have a wide variety of vegetarian dishes that are so rich and delicious.

Save Your Money and Time! This place is such a shame to Indian food. If I could give this place 0 stars trust me, I would. We ordered delivery for 2 and it was roughly 60. The ETA on the order was 15min. I should have known that it was going to be old curries that will be reheated. You can't cook curries in 15 minutes and have it delivered within that 15 minutes. The three curries we ordered were stale and tasted off. I can confidently say that these are old curries.The Garlic Naan was basically raw dough with no garlic. That means I literally paid extra for a regular Naan, which was raw. Are you kidding me?! The Chicken Karahi had watery tomato gravy ( there was water on top of the curry sauce) and the chicken was boiled and dunked into the gravy. I've had many chicken Karahi so I know what it should look like and taste like. This was disgusting. We also ordered a Lamb Rogan Josh which had the same gravy taste as the chicken one...why?? These are completely different dishes. And the freaking Daal Makhani,it had a weird smell and it was slimy and stale. Now this is the KEY word here: STALE. A lot of the reviews from South Asian people here all use this word. From experience, we know when our home-cooked curries go bad or old so how is it any different for restaurant curries? It's not like we don't know what we are talking about. We threw away everything. We couldn't eat anything due to the smell and taste. This was inedible and borderline food poisoning.

AVOID THIS PLACE!! Poor food quality, tasteless, stale curd used for raita and lassi. Uncooked shrimp and peas used for biryani.

Being Indians, we were craving for dahi bhalla and looking for restaurants serving that, Desi dhaba is one of the two restaurants nearby which serves dahi bhalla. We were so excited to eat it. First, the restaurant denied that we cannot dine in just because we are just ordering a dahi bhalla and nothing else. Second, the quality of dahi bhalla was pathetic. The dahi was so sour, bhalla was not soft and they did not put any effort in garnishing it. Dahi bhalla from this restaurant spoiled our mood and craving for it.

Was super happy with the taste and portions of food. Got the special for 2 (forget exact name, but was the only one for two that I saw), which was very affordable. Indian cuisine is not my specialty, but this was tasty to me
