Hilal Grill 1638 North 40th Street, Phoenix, AZ 85008

"We went to Hilal grill for lunch. Place was clean and organized. Ambiance was great with very open space. We ordered many items from the menu. Lamb kahan and Chicken kabab were ok as those were more like tikkas than kebabs (kebabs are minced meat with spices). We also ordered samosas and those were ok, not as expected (like the one we get in India, but taste wise ok. Mutton Kadahi and Butter Chiken were good. Service was ok too."

"Salivating selection of Pakastani, Indian, and Afghani food. Mostly Indian selection but very tasty. My only negative feedback is the mango lassis are some of the weakest I've ever had. No tart."

"As I sit here eating my still-delectable leftovers from last night, I am called to stop what I’m doing. I must share with you just how high my opinion of this place is. Despite being short-staffed, our waitress was extremely pleasant and playful, and the food is quite possibly the best Indian-style I’ve had in all of Phoenix, truly. The only thing that could have made our experience better is if the TV wasn’t playing garden-variety, “if it bleeds it leads” cable news. I will return to Hilal Grill and hope to receive the same incredible food and friendly service again & again. Thanks for being here!"

"Vegetable samosa 3/5 White rice 4/5 Shrimp biryani 4/5 Shrimp karahi 4/5 Naan 3/5 Food was tasty but some of the Indian dish were definitely not what I’d expect taste wise. This restaurant’s flavors are definitely a fusion of their own. I’d order takeout from here."

"Was recommended this place by someone else. Food was good, not too heavy on the spices which I appreciated. Serving size was substantial for the malai boti, would prefer a larger serving size for 2 people for the chicken karahi."
