"This casual Pakistani-Indian restaurant has been wowing diners across the Peninsula since opening its Mountain View location in 2014. And after one bite of the rich, tomato-forward chicken tikka masala, or the grilled chicken boti thali, it’s easy to understand why. The space at this Redwood City location with cookbook-lined shelves feels cozy and intimate—families and tech workers alike feel equally at home sharing top-notch curries, thalis, and specialty items, like the aloo samosa burger—think of the, but swap the beef patty for smashed samosa filling and add a mountain of masala-spiced fries. Just know that when the menu refers to an item as “spicy,” it’s not an over-exaggeration." - Gabi Moskowitz
