Desi Dhaaba

"They deserve 10 starts. The food is excellent! The service is great. The Indian lady taking your order at the counter is beautiful. She makes you want to visit the restaurant nursery to see her."

"To me, two stars means that I'm not actively shouting for people to avoid a place, but that I will recommend against going there if asked. Starting with presentation, they bring you your food in plastic or styrofoam to-go containers, even if you are dining in. The butter chicken, which should be finished with a ring of heavy cream, is just a hue of red on top. As for flavor: * The mango lassi tastes like "Dannon Fruit on the Bottom" yogurt, put through a blender. It tastes first of sugar, with a backdrop of mango. A good lassi should taste first of the distinctive fruit, then of the tangy yogurt, and finally have a light sweetness. * The goat biryani tastes heavily of cloves, almost to the point of numbing your tongue (if you have ever bitten into a whole clove, you know what I mean). * The butter chicken sauce is sooooo salty. While the chicken is nicely charred, it is also overcooked and dry. Eating it with rice (instead of naan) does help cut some of the saltiness, but even then the flavor is unimpressive. Having had a lot of very good Indian food, I was hoping to find Desi Dhaaba to be a little gem, but I was sorely disappointed. We are still on the lookout for a good Indian restaurant in the Lake County area."

"This is my first time trying out their food and it was absolutely delicious ! I ordered Aalo tikki, Chicken Biryani, Kadi, samosa chaat, aalo chaat , and Lassi ! Omg the Lassi was so good ! I couldn't wait so I ate up the Aalo Tikki in my car. Kadi was my absolute favorite ! The prices are beyond reasonable. I paid $42 for everything that I would've paid over $65-70 ! A must try ! Will definitely be back."

"My son picked up some delicious takeout for us! Tried vegetable and chicken samosas, vegetable pakora, butter chicken, naan bread and chutneys. It was some of the best Indian food I ever had! Our bill was about $28 and made two large meals. Well worth it. Spiced and cooked perfectly! Will definitely be back! There is also an Indian grocery store as well."
