Moti Mahal II 4113 Pennsylvania Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64111

"The food was extremely bad! We were three of us and we order the Moti mahal platter to start with which is the worst thing I have had at an Indian restaurant in the United States. Everything was frozen, doughy, just dumped into the fryer and served to us. The tandoori chicken we ordered was bland, greasy and not charred enough as it should be. Also, How can you screw up just plain simple rice ? It was sticky and oily af! The garlic naan bread was doughy and more like a pita bread ( please avoid this). You get better naan bread at any store. We also ordered chicken mughlai gravy which seemed to be the only saving grace, it was still pretty bland but not as terrible as the rest of the food! We made the mistake of ordering the gulab jamun for desert. It tasted very greasy! My friends ate it because they felt bad for the restaurant workers/ owners . I didn’t touch mine after taking a bite from theirs! Pathetic! Store bought gulab Jamun tastes way better. Avoid at all costs!!"

"By seeing reviews We wanted to try this place when visiting Kansas, ordered for carry out- vegetarian dishes. Nice panner tikka masala and Naan/roti was big undercooked. Had a high expectations for biryani but it was not all Biryani ,qty was great for $16.95 but not tasty Felt like some rice with vegetables, basically no biryani masala was there. It was ok ok food for vegetarians. May be nice for non-vegetarians but definitely would not recommend for vegetarians. No proper parking if you are a take out orders."

"Good food that's even better dining in. Not everything travels well, but fresh from the kitchen it is great. Picture is vegetarian dinner for 2 (lentil soup and samosa unpictured). Will be going back"

"I was very happy with both the quality of our food and service during our first visit to Moti Mahal in Westport, just a few days ago. We found a lot of vegan options on the menu and were impressed with the knowledgeable staff who were happy to accommodate. I've included a picture below from our takeout order - Samosas, Pakora, Chana Aloo, and Gobi Keema (from left to right). I'd also highly recommend the vegetable Kofta with coconut milk - not pictured, but my favorite dish we ordered. I'm already looking forward to returning!"

"This location is popular, and for good reason. The charming decor and ambiance of in-person dining is great. The food is delicate and delicious. The butter chicken is incredible, especially when paired with garlic naan and a lassi. I order delivery from this place at least once a week during Covid. It was comforting food that always arrived correct to the order."
