Dera

"Got samosa and chai. Chai was good. Samosa was average. The place is quite untidy."

"I recommend them, The quantity is satisfactory, taste is 10/10, price is great. We took two curries with naan, it was enough and more for even the three of us. We had to take some for takeout."

"This is my best friends absolute favorite place and she has been talking about this non-stop. I had a paper due today so suddenly craved desi food. Traveled an hour to go to Dera and we ordered Channa Masala, Beef Nehari, Parathas, Goat Pulao, Bihari Kebab and Teas. Channa Masal was okay on its own. Could be better with parsley/cilantro garnish. The complimentary salad actually works with it. Squeeze bit of lemon and it would be perfect. Beef nehari was really good. I like the texture and the meat was very tender. The soup(jhol) was not to oily. Found the Tawa Paratha bit oily compared to other places that serve paratha. But it wasn’t too bad. Goat pulao had more rice and I kind of like it like that. But the taste was bit bland. This again can be fixed with sides of salad and lemon. The star to me was the tea and the Bihari Kebab. It was soooo good and the right amount of spice. The had spicy kick to it and not overworking. I ordered some sweets to go and I was really surprised to find Shon Papri (I am not sure what they call it but this is how I locally know it. I basically got bunch of sweets that I felt like would be yummy from display so can’t name them all) I got one order of rasmalai which my friend sweared on and it really was worth it. Its not too sweet but made me go “mmh” when I took a bite. The service was very good considering they pack our leftovers for us which majority places don’t do. Wrapped everything in white cling wrap. And the lady explained the sweets well when I was checking on display. Will definitely go back for breakfast next time and also try other items from the menu."

"Today i take out chiken biriyani thnen they serv me stale biriyani. when i open the box my full room had bad smell. I'm about to vomit."

"Food is very good as expected but the waiting time is over an hour. If you are very hungry and you are there at dining hour and can't wait long, better go elsewhere. The price is fair. We ordered beef nehari, chicken haleem, shamu kebabs, dhal, naan and paratha for about $60. Parking is very difficult to get so it is better to use public transportation instead. It is a very busy restaurant so expect loud overlapping chatters but it was a good experience. We took a corner table and it was nice."
