Zareen's - Review - Mountain View - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"You’re liable to encounter a line when you stop into the Mountain View location of Zareen’s, a tiny halal Indian-Pakistani spot in an unassuming strip mall near the Google campus. Don’t worry—this location is carry-out only, and the automated ordering system and efficient kitchen team mean food comes out fast, even when it’s busy. Get the flaky paratha, an order of the velvety tarka daal with yellow lentils and caramelized onions (it appears simple but trust us, you won’t be able to stop eating it), and either the hearty madras chicken curry or the creamy paneer tikka masala. For a less traditional but equally satisfying alternative, get the charcoal-grilled tandoori chicken burger with green and tamarind chutneys. It’ll have you rethinking everything you thought you knew about what belongs on a bun." - Gabi Moskowitz
