Desi Tadka Chaat Dosa - Sunnyvale

The food was just average. Besides the ambiance, there wasn't much to rave about. The veggie wraps, essentially vegetables wrapped in chapati, and the pani puri did not taste very fresh.

The Garlic Naan was undercooked. The Shahi Paneer was overloaded with spice powder. The Aloo Tikki Chaat was drenched in oil; seriously, who puts that much oil on Tikki Chole Chaat? The Bhel Puri seemed like it came from an outdated Surati mix packet, as it had released oil and didn't taste fresh. You could make a better Bhel at home using those packets. The Garlic Manchurian was mediocre, just a 2 out of 5.

I ordered a chicken wrap and aloo paratha. The flavors were great, and the portion sizes exceeded my expectations. The prices were reasonable too! However, the parathas were a bit on the thicker side.

Not bad! I needed some takeout for a late dinner and this place was open til 10 PM. I called over the phone and came to pick it up. Easy process.A bit on the pricey size for the portion... maybe 12 oz?... but the dish was pretty filling! The Butter Chicken Masala was exactly as I expected. Creamy, tangy, flavorful, and had tender chicken. It's also a bit spicy. Keep in mind that the rice is not included with the dish.Some of the staff don't wear masks or wear their masks under their nose, so be aware of that. I may return in the future to try out their Dal Tadka or Paneer Pakora, but this is definitely somewhere I'd just order for takeout.

I gave this place two chances and they failed both times. First time, no one ever picked up the phone for a to go order. Went in person and waited 30 minutes. Food was barely acceptable. My non Indian friends said they liked it but I don't think that counts. The second time, again no one picks up the phone. I thought they were out of business due to COVID, so just went in person again to see if it was still open. Very bad idea! 1. They said the order would take 20 30 minutes. Waited 35 minutes and during this time multiple online take out orders were processed. I asked again and was told it would be another 15 minutes!! So, 50 minutes later I received the food. 2. As I left, was asked whether I had already paid for the food ! which, yes, I had because why would I still be here 50 minutes later if I hadn't paid for the food?! I would have left a long time ago. 3. The Butter Chicken Masala was extremely dry and didn't taste fresh. It's almost as if it had been cooked for the entire 50 minutes that I was waiting. 4. The eggs in the Egg Masala were old the yolk was over cooked and from the flavor, it was easy to tell the eggs had been sitting around for a while. The masala itself was very bland... No salt, no lime, just some generic mixed spice flavor with too much oil. 5. The Garlic Naans were extremely disappointing they were barely cooked and very thin the dough hadn't risen at all and were nearly impossible to eat but unfortunately we were hungry. Never going back here again...
