I had a samosa chaat and arbi sabzi and the food was good but not great
Brandon Hunter
Oh man! I'm so full right now but it was literally the best Indian food I've had. The chicken Tikka is the bomb, their mango lassi!!!!! Common man... The garlic naan is fire and ummm the portions are huge. Drivers if your tired of subway and all the other junk, come n get it!
PS
Excellent home style food at the gas station, tried on my way . Everything was delicious and the attitude of everyone working there was friendly and attentive. The makki ki roti was one of the most delicious I ate in my life , though Saag had a little burnt taste but overall food was good .Will stop next time too

I had an incredible lunch at The Indian Oven and I ordered the lamb biryani, samosas, and garlic naan and all of them were very tasty and full of flavor. Shan, our server was very helpful and suggested some Indian food to us which we never had before and the food was mind blowing. It was nice to be in the restaurant and feel welcomed by the staff as well as the environment. The Indian Oven is a great place for people who want to try out rich Indian food.

Great punjabi dhaba style food. Love the parathas and white butter, the amritsari kulcha thali was delicious! The restrooms were not so clean, but the food was really good! The staff is very nice and helpful.

The food here was surprisingly good. It was all flavored and easy to eat. The service was nice. We enjoyed our time here. It was a spur of the moment decision but definitely worth it. Would recommend you try it if you are in the area and looking for some Indian food.

Their food is so delicious, fresh and just truly Indian flavors. The chicken was tender and juicy. The staff is friendly and helpful. And the mango lassi is so fresh and delicious.
