We have gotten take away here many times before and always impressed with the food and service. The staff are really friendly and polite and the food is amazing.
You'll sometimes find a tamarind pip here and there in a curry but who wants a smooth curry, only wimps do.
There are tables and chairs to sit down if you're eating in.
We like to order the chicken and lamb cooked above the coals, an amazing curry, biryani and naan bread. Beautiful!
If you're into great food you must try this place. Best Indian/Pakistani food ever!

Approximate cost: $15

The food as Misty's tasted fine, however the customer service needs to improve.
My partner and I waited in the diner as per the instructions on the sign, to wait to be served. There were staff walking around, they didn't seem interested in greeting us and we waited for 5 minutes before someone came to speak to us. The waitress, who had an American/Canadian accent didn't look busy and there was a guy behind the counter who refused to make eye contact with us.
When the server brought our food over, he almost knocked a can of soft drink over however I was able to catch it in time, otherwise we may not have been able to enjoy our lunch.
I also think thick shakes are definitely not worth $8. Sure I'd pay that if it came with a shot of alcohol but not a thick shake with a few pieces on chocolate.
I know you're being as authentic as possible but please don't forget to train your staff.

Very happy with the service from everyone and the taste of the food. My only criticism, and I see a lot of diners before me have mentioned here, is the burgers and other meal items should be cheaper or include chilli fries in their price. I am not being 'tight', I am trying to be helpful as I work in insolvency. I've seen a lot of other good quality places charge significantly less for the same type of quality meals so it wouldn't be that hard or expensive to the owners. Otherwise, great dining experience, thank you. Looking forward to my next meal there!
