Deshi Grocery & Deli 34 Raymond Avenue, Arlington, NY 12603

"Small place that carries a lot of stuff. Grocery store with meat and good frozen foods variety. Tasty food. Staff needs to enhance their communication skills though."

"I found this place on Uber Eats. I ordered some goat biryani. I was pleasantly surprised. The biryani was flavorful and the goat was tender. So, I went there next day in-person. My first impression was not a pleasant one. It's a grocery store with a kitchen in the back and 2 tables upfront. From whatever glimpse I caught of it, the kitchen looked extremely unhygienic.i still wouldn't post a negative review, if the food was good. I ordered 2 orders of goat biryani and 2 orders of chicken samosa. The samosa turned out to be too salty. I took one bite, and I had to throw them out. The biryani turned out to be beef instead of goat. The taste wasn't as good as the first time either and the meat was undercooked. The biryani went in the trash as well. $40 down the drain. Also, for the uninformed, this place claims to be Indian, but it's not. It's Bangladeshi. Bangladesh is a smaller country and an immediate neighbor of India. Even though there are some cultural similarities, there are lots of differences, especially in the food. Stay away!!! If you want authentic Indian food, go to "Tamarind" or "Gymkhana"."

"Ordered take out for lunch today and it was one of the best lunches I’ve ever had. Seriously so good! Chicken curry, rice, veg and naan all for $10.99. The flavors and spices were perfect. I also got the vegetable samosas which were equally delicious. Definitely a new favorite spot!"

"I got garlic and butter naan with the spicy chicken tikka masala was really good food had a good kick to it too !!!"

"Good Indian food, but also nice for a decent burger ("beef sandwich")! Get a combo with nuggets and fries."
