Editorial Review for Favorite Indian Restaurant – by Jim Harrington
In Short
This eatery offers Indian food at reasonable prices. Local families and couples flock to this cozy spot for its deep-fried paneer pakora (Indian cheese) and meat samosas stuffed with ground lamb. The butter chicken is shredded, roasted meat in tomato sauce. The Favorite Biriyani, an aromatic mix of saffron-flavored basmati rice, prawns, chicken, lamb and nuts, offers a mix of meat and seafood.

I used to love this place as a takeout choice. I'm not sure if the ownership has changed, but I recently put in an order (my usual). I was informed that we would have to place an order of $30 or more. (The tab came to $22). After asking to speak to a manager, I was informed that this was the "owner's wife, actually" and did I want to pay a $5.00 devlivery fee or not for my area. Nevermind that we have placed at least 20 orders of exactly the same amout of food prior to this, the restaurant is less than three miles away. So, we were desperately hungry. We grudgingly pay the $5.00 (not to mention a nice tip for the delivery driver). We eat the food...and the WHOLE FAMILY gets sick! We had our usual oatmeal for breakfast and sandwiches with fresh sealed lunchmeat that, so we KNOW that we were sick by this establishment. What's sad is that I don't think I'll ever be able to eat my favorite chicken tiki masala again after that experience no matter how reputable the restaurant. Too sad.
Cons: Don't order take out unless you plan on spending at least $30.00.

Whenever i come home from school, me and my friends in the area always make a point to go to favorites at least once or twice to catch up. We love the food, and i am always stuffed so full when i leave for like 7 dollars. we got to go before and it was very delicious. We eat a lot of the vegetarian dishes as well as the meaty ones and all are superb. You should pick yourself up and go for dinner or lunch right this instant!
Pros: YUMMY, easy parking, fast service
