I gave this place a second chance because I know how good their food is. They definitely delivered on the second chance. Amazing curry goat and very tasty rice.

I ordered the curry goat today. This was a very difficult review for me and I will explain in detail why. First, I appreciate that the place is kept clean. The meat looks fresh and reasonably priced. I was attracted not by the fact that it was a meat shop but that they also served hot food. I saw on their window an advertisement of goat curry with rice, so I thought I would give that a try. The server was very nice. She was attentive and friendly. I asked on the size and she showed me a decent size (standard size) take-out container for $15. I was given the take out container in a white reusable grocery bag and I did not check the container before leaving the store. I live literally seconds from the store so I left it in the white reusable grocery bag until I got home. When I arrived at home I noticed the container looked like it was full of liquid and wondered if the rice was swimming at the bottom of the container. When I opened the container, there was no rice and there was only 5 small pieces of goat on bone. The rest of the container was sauce. Essentially I paid $15 for 5 small pieces of curried goat. Here is where I struggled with applying a rating. I was angry and felt ripped off. I thought to myself to go back and ask for a refund. I also thought to go back and mention they didn’t even include the rice, as advertised. It was very disappointing because I just paid $15 for 5 small pieces of curry goat and there wasn’t even any rice. Horrible experience for a first time customer. I was unable to go back right away because of a work commitment. Instead, I put rice in my rice cooker and cooked white rice to go with the container of sauce and 5 very small pieces of goat meat. When I tasted the curry goat, it was absolutely delicious. One of the best I have ever had. I was glad that I gave it a taste. It was a very expensive ‘taste’. If you order this item, it would be something that you order on rare occasion. It is far too expensive and the portion will not satisfy you even if you are only feeding yourself let alone more than one person. If you are going to include the sauce as part of the overall price, you should mention that AND if you are not going to include rice, as advertised, you should let you customer know that as well. I’m extremely upset about this experience. This place clearly deserves 5 stars just based on taste because it is absolutely delicious. However, considering they did not provide rice as advertised and gave me a container of 95% sauce and 5% meat, I had no choice but to give you a 3 star rating. I will however, make an attempt to visit your store in the next few weeks to see if anything has changed. If not, I will not be making any further purchases. That would be sad, as you curry is delicious. I really hope you take this rating seriously.

I have had great biryani here. We went tonight to order lamb biryani take-away. Upon arriving home and opening the container, observed it was not biryani. It was steamed short grain, boiled to cook (not steamed) white rice tossed and fried with a goat bones and a few meager pieces of goat meat, with massively cut onions. They told us it would take fifteen minutes. As the rice was soggy we assumed that they boiled the rice very quickly, threw it in a frying pan with a lot of oil and large chunks of onions and some frozen no name veggies, Added some bones and a couple shreds of meat, Fried it up, stirred it. It was horrible. Unethical. Large chunks of the soggy white rice unstirred. It was more than evident that they rushed. We called them back to tell them that they should have just told us they did not have any biryani. The lady whom we spoke to blamed it on her chef. However, there is only the couple that works there, always, and they both are the cooks. Very disappointing to find out it was dishonest service, no repsect, no integrity. For that reason, we will not be returning. We will not be recommending anyone to go there. You have to trust who is serving you food, that you are putting into your body. They assumed perhaps that we did not know what biryani was given, we were not south asian. It is a dish we enjoy and have been enjoying for several decades. We are very familiar with the dish. Will upload photos shortly.

This place tried to deceive me and served me soggy rice that they called goat Biryani rice. Short grain white rice with cheap mix vegetables and goat bones with 2 pieces, yes only 2 pieces, of goat. If you do not have what you are advertising then tell the customer that you don’t have it PERIOD.
