" What a fantastic little restaurant! My family and I decided to order takeout from Mahal, and we loved everything! From the crispy samosas to the flavorful chicken tikka, every dish had a homey taste to it that you don’t find in big commercial places. Plus, the prices are very reasonable! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed this time around. I ordered the chicken biryani, but it was undercooked and bland. Also, the service felt off, as if the staff were not attentive. I don't know if I’ll come back soon; I might try other local Indian spots that have caught my interest. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a loyal customer of Mahal for years! Their butter chicken and samosas are to die for, and the service is usually quick. I've tried several dishes from their menu, and they do not disappoint. It's always a treat after work when I can grab dinner from here. Just don’t expect to try comfortably, as it is primarily a takeout place. " (*Curated Review*)

" I won't be returning to Mahal after my recent experience. I ordered takeout, but the food was cold and didn’t taste fresh at all. The beef kebab was dry, and the naan was hard. It was disappointing considering the positive reviews. Cleanliness also seemed questionable, which is a big turn-off. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Mahal was a highlight of my trip. I ordered the special that included both the fried fish and chicken curry. The flavors were bold and reminded me of home. Staff were helpful and answered all my questions about the menu. The only downside was the basic dining area, but it didn’t detract from the experience. Worth a stop if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had an amazing meal at Mahal! Ordered several dishes for the whole family, and each was exquisite. The garlic naan was soft and combined beautifully with the lamb curry. The service was swift and friendly, making it a delightful experience. This will be our new family favorite! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about my recent visit. The dishes I had were decent but didn’t quite live up to the authenticity I'd hoped for. The presentation was lackluster, and the portions could be better for the price. On the bright side, staff were friendly and the space had a down-to-earth vibe. I'll give it another shot with a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)
