Description

This tiny Indian joint isn't much to look at; order at the counter in the back, where a lone employee stands under an illuminated and illustrated menu. Sit at one of the handful of wooden tables, surrounded by red ceramic tiles and a large photo of a temple, or get your food to go. The food mostly hails from northern India and is heads and shoulders above what you would normally expect from a cramped Indian take-out joint. Choose from a long menu including dishes such as chicken tikka masala, lamb curry, chana saag (chickpeas cooked with spinach), spicy shrimp vindaloo and more, all priced at or under the $10 mark. The dinner special includes one appetizer, entrée, naan bread and basmati rice for $13. Food is made to order instead of dished out of warming trays, so expect a short wait. The atmosphere is pretty bare bones, meaning most customers order take-out or delivery (minimum $10 order).—Keith Wagstaff

    Aping the methods of Chinese restaurants, KHUSHIE prepares its food to order rather than pooling it on a steam table. The result is fresher tasting Punjabi fare than you've ever had before. Chicken kali mirch shotguns tasty poultry tidbits with black pepper for an enduring burn, while, more mildly, navarattan korma bathes vegetables in a rich nut sauce. More »
