Kurry Walah

I couldn't wait for the opportunity to write this review. I found this restaurant by accident and I'm really glad I did. First of all, the friendliness of the staff made me feel welcome and invited. The menu is clear and concise. Most importantly, the food tasted almost like it was homemade from scratch. Each dish was made exactly to my personal requests. I think this is hands down the best Indian restaurant in Houston. Great prices, great community. Tandoori Roti swimming in butter, spicy Aloo Gobi rich with flavor.

I think our lips are still tingling from Kurry Walah! My husband called their bluff ordering medium spice - they aren't playing! Butter chicken is a favorite. We had biryani with lamb and it was extremely flavorful, very tender. Don't sleep on the naan! They have several versions to choose from and the garlic is phenomenal. Our samosa appetizer was very dry, but they brought out sauces made in-house and that saved them. KW is a quaint spot, but big on service and spice!

UPDATE: I decided to go back again, which was always the plan since the food is unbelievable (best in Katy for sure). Met the owner's wife and had a great conversation with her! Exactly what I was expecting the first time around. Super dignified and respectful. I will leave the details of the conversation out but long story short, she agreed that the previous visit wasn't a good experience for a customer, especially a regular customer. When she saw we were ordering our regular choices, she suggested a different appetizer (samosa chat) and a different chicken entree (kadai chicken). And as always, her suggestions were awesome! We still haven't had anything here that we have not liked. As always, highly recommend the food here. Am super happy that we are back to good experiences here! UPDATE: I am not sure what happened, may be the owner was having a bad day or something, but he didn't do the substitutions that we always used to get. May be a change in policy? Nope. He says in his 3.5 years, he has never done that. I have a bigger issue with the denial than not getting the substitution. So not sure if his employees used to do that behind his back or the policy changed recently (which he denied BTW). And he seemed rude too, not sure why. They used to be very welcoming, used to remember me by name and then suddenly this behavior. It's sad because the food is really good and I want this to be my go to place for Indian food but bad customer service is something I cannot stand. So updating my review from 5 to 3 just for bad customer service. Hopefully this will change and they will go back to how it was in the past. I will be the happiest one to change my review back to 5 stars. A great place for Indian food in Katy! There aren't many Indian places here (which is a big surprise for me given the Indian population here), but even if there would have been, Kurry Walah would have topped it! We wanted to try as many dishes as possible since it was our first time, so we ordered the thali, which is kind of a sampler for two (I think it would have worked even for 3 people, the portions were that generous). We ordered a lacha parantha on the side and boy, it was awesome! The masala chai was strong (in a good way), good to keep me awake for some time! The service was great too and the ambience is cozy. Honestly, cannot think of any reason to deduct even 1 star. Highly recommend this place (coming from an Indian)!
