Haandi Indian Cuisine

I was craving some warm, comforting Indian food and decided to give this place a try. I felt uncertain given the 4.2-rating but ultimately am SO glad I came because this spot is amazing. I knew it was going to be good when I walked in and the smell of garlic and curry hit me. The place was quite busy, vibrant and the energy felt good. The hostess and gentlemen that helped with my order were very warm and welcoming. I ordered the butter chicken (I know, basic but I had to…), chicken dish #2, and a mango lassi. The chicken definitely stood out to me. It was delicious, and I could distinguish good quality meat, which I really appreciate! Juicy, tender—it even had a smokey “woody” flavor under the rich sauces. I had left overs and it still tasted great the next day, there was no dreaded gamey taste. The sauces in my dishes were well spiced, fresh, and perfectly balanced. Very deep and rich flavors. I took my food “to-go” and the portions were also super generous. The rice was buttery and light in texture, mango lassi was sweet, thick, and creamy. Not to mention I have celiac disease and I did not have any gluten reaction after eating here. I highly recommend and will definitely be returning to try more dishes. This place deserves a higher rating in my opinion.
