After my fourth visit in as many months(squinting every time, expecting that my last visit was a pleasant fluke), I don’t understand the bad reviews. If you want culinary masterpieces go elsewhere. If you want a variety of good food quickly and *consistently* it’s hard to beat. There is nothing else like it in the Towson area. Where else can you get very good Indian appetizer, an Italian entrée and wash it down with Masala Tea(Himalayan Style — with ginger) — with a smile, and without burning a hole in your pocket? The Samosas are great and the Masala Chai is incredible — both are better than Kathmandu Kitchen across the street. The nachos are good. The Chicken Biryani is the best in the area, and craving inducing. A friend even takes a bunch home when she visits from Pennsylvania. The Chicken Curry is great too. Some things to beware of: they can get really busy at times so you might add on an extra five minutes to a delivery estimate. And they can run out of some of the more popular items on their menu. My only negative experience here has been the wait on my second visit: late on a Thursday night, it was mobbed.

Butter chicken, chicken tikka tandoori, & daal makani are exceptional, regularly — but some weekends are a little plate-sparse.

I ordered from here last night and the food was good. Today for lunch I ordered from here again. The employee was argumentative over the phone about specials that are listed on their own menu. He wouldn’t believe me and I told him repeatedly to go look at his own menu online. I had to repeat my order over and over again. The employee would not listen and kept repeating what I just had told him. The online delivery charges a $ 1.00 for delivery, but then when you call the delivery fee is $ 1.99. If your prices are changed, it should be updated online. Over 45 minutes later my order was delivered with no sauce for the buffalo wings. The hot sauce was dripped all over the paper bag. I called back to tell them that my food was cold and the hot sauce was dripping from the bag. The employee who answered the phone said he could not help me because the manager was not there. About 10 minutes later someone called me to give excuses about why my order ended up the way it did(bumpy roads… the wings already had hot sauce and the sauce was not needed, because they were hot enough for me). He apologized and that was the extent of the conversation. If you were not planning on correcting the order, why bother to call back and give excuses? This is a business and the should fulfill the services I purchase from them. I am not ordering for free. I am really disappointed. There are many other great places in Towson to eat in the same neighborhood. I suggest you pick another place.

Indian items are surprisingly better than the last time I visited this place. Got chiken tikka masala and lamb gyro… satisfaction

This place is good for take and go food. They have a good indian curries and basmati rice. Is not that bad but worth it if you don’t want to spend more money in a high ranked restaurants.

I used to love this restaurant before they were bought out. Now they constantly screw up food, deliveries take over an hour consistently, and I’ve received more incorrect orders than I care to count. Upon my most recent purchase, I received incorrect items, called to get my replacement item, was told that could be done and I could keep the incorrect item. Then I receive a second phone call, asking if I want my sub another day, and that I would have to prove I had the incorrect item in order to receive my correct item, and that the delivery driver would be taking the incorrect item. I order from this location regularly, about 2 – 3 times a week, and I would say 1 of those 2 or 3 orders have something wrong with them. If it isn’t an incorrect item, it’s poorly prepared food, and you can count on your order taking minimum an hour to arrive, no matter how close you live. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs.

Ordered chicken tikka and got tomato sauce drenched cubes of boiled chicken. For those of you are wondering ‘so wht’ here is the answer — that is NOT chicken tikka. for it to be chicken tikka, it has to be marinated in spices and yogurt and then cooked in a TANDOOR oven. not boil it and pour ketchup on top. When it is cooked in the tandoor oven because of the very high heat, it takes only a couple of minuted plus the extra marinade drips into the oven leaving flavourful tender chicken pieces to be enjoyed with rice/roti. When I called to ask them if there was a mix up of some kind they replied — we dont have a tandoor oven. this is how we cook it. No apology was made. Wont be ordering from there again.

I’ve ordered from this location multiple times and not received my food on time in any instance. If you are picking up your food then you’re probably fine. But don’t EVERORDERDELIVERY. I ordered my food at 12:18 and it is 1:45 and I still haven’t gotten my food. I called and asked what the problem was and she said«I’m sorry we busy.» That is not okay. I shouldn’t have even had to pay for my food at that point and she didn’t even care to give me a courtesy call to tell me my food was going to be late. I do not ever recommend ordering from there if you want delivery. EVER. DONTDOIT.

Aralon’s used to be decent, but the last few times I’ve ordered from them they have forgotten items from my order. I kept ordering because I loved their naan, but it’s not worth the hassle. They need to get their act together because now they have lost my business. I tried them one more time and the driver was a total ass to me and the food wasn’t good.

We’ve been searching for authentic lamb gyro’s and finally found them here. They were fantastic, and portions were good. Great taste to the tzatziki sauce, and the veggies weren’t overpowering. Great price too — $ 7/gyro. We will be coming back.

Food quality is not the best. But it has the only seafood pizza around town; add a little old bay and you have yourself a tasty pizza. Has an application that I use for deliveries which is very convenient. A cheaper and higher quality option than their competitor Michael Angelo’s. also provides Indian options.

Tiny little carry out place with like five tables inside. Got the extra spicy lamb vindaloo and it is delicious. Plenty of rice and nice service. Wish it came with like a few more chunks of lamb for the price but it’s on par with most Indian places
