NeeHee's was recommended me by a friend and I figured I'd try it for lunch! I read reviews that it can be busy during lunch so I arrived right when they opened at 11am and was the first customer. Folks were right as there was a steady stream of lunch traffic following my arrival!
I didn't expect NeeHee's to be so large, spacious. It's its own standalone building with its own lot, so there's ample parking. There are large windows which let in a lot of natural light -- good for food photos AND ambience.
You order at the counter & you're given a buzzer that buzzes when your food is ready. When you're finished, you just leave your plates on the table!
I ordered way too much but had plenty of leftovers. The menu is EXPANSIVE so it's worth it to read through it before you arrive! There are a lot of unique items on this menu that I haven't seen elsewhere. Some of the menu items here I've had before from my international Indian classmates' home cooking. The homey goodness is appreciated and comforting.
Note: none of the food was spicy at all but I believe I saw hot sauce packets if you want to add a kick!
*C13 Dahi Samosa Chaat (Smashed samosas, topped with sweet tamarind chutney, mint-cilantro chutney, beaten yogurt, onions, spices and topped with sev for that extra crunch.) - I love samosas and love chutney so I knew that I would enjoy this dish. The textures and flavors were so addictive - the sweet and sour from the tamarind, the tang from the yogurt, the bright bite from the onions, the fried crunchy exterior of the samosa with the savory and comforting pea/potato filling of the samosa. It was a beautiful dish. Came with 3 samosas and I was PLENTY full.
*M7 Special Gujarati Thali (Three types of sabjis (various), rice, roti, gujrati dal (soup), Shrikhand (sweet dish made of strained yogurt), Farsan (side dishes that complement the main meal), raita (yogurt with spices, cucumber and carrots), pickle (spicy and tangy mixed vegetables), mix bean salad, Papadum, all these served in small bowls and dividers.) - I love dishes where I can have a little bit of everything & this was the perfect for that! It's HUGE by the way. Definitely can be shared!
This is their explanation of Thali: Imagine a round platter of dishes that cover all the flavors from sweet to salty and bitter to spicy! All these dishes are meant to bring a balance of flavors and come together to make you feel fully satisfied at the end of your meal. There are various versions of the Thali from every part of the country and we serve the Gujarati one. It consists of small portions of various sabjis, rice, roti (Indian bread), soup, raita (yogurt with spices, cucumber and carrots), pickle (spicy and tangy mixed vegetables) served in small bowls and dividers.
