I’ll definitely be coming back here again. I’ve not liked Indian food until I tried the food here. I don’t think some of the food here is sold at other Indian restaurants. The ordering counter is in the back of the grocery store. You write your order on a note, pass it to them, and wait. The wait is totally worth it. Searching up the dishes in google helped me understand what they were before ordering. I’ll be back many more times.

Best indian store in university city, if not philly. The family who owns the place are really good and friendly. The stock of indian grocery is good. The restaurant also serves really good parathas and homely meals. The aloo paratha is a must try.

Amazing home style paranthas. Crispy, super thin, delicious stuffing. Aloo, gobi, paneer - all three were great. Get a side of extra butter to lather it on top and thank me later.

Great food, homemade and tastes like it. We had parathas, bhindi, goat curry, aloo gobi and they were all delicious. It's a restaurant behind the grocery store and it's truly a hidden gem.

6 stars for the saag paneer, palak goat, raita and chai. Minus one for the undersalted, flavorless tandoori chicken (though, at least it was perfectly moist).
Good selection of grocery items at decent prices.
Would highly recommend the saag and palak dishes. They just do the masalas so well and they are so tender. Can tell they are made with love.

Nice, simple and delicious home cooked food from the nicest Punjabi owners. Over my 2 week stay in Philly, I tried different sabzis and parathas here and not once have I been let down. All the parathas are the best! my personal favorite is aloo paratha with elaichi (cardamom) chai. Saag chicken and Saag paneer taste fantastic. Rajma (and dal makhni) Rice combo reminds me of home. All in all, you can literally eat here everyday.

Really really really amazing Indian food in the back of the store. Sort of like a hidden gem, speakeasy of sorts. I had no idea there was a restaurant behind the grocery store until my friend told me. Super casual and really fresh Indian food. Super friendly people who run the store as well.

Incredible spot to get legit Indian food in West Philly. Probably the best Indian in town. Not to mention they have all the spices you could imagine in bulk quantities, a crazy rice aisle, and even massive tubs of yogurt to boot. Please please please support this gem of an establishment.

Oh damn, one of the best unknown spots in the city. First time I went I was confused but no place has the authentic food like Dana Mandi. Cant recommend this place enough. Will always go back!

Best place in Philly to have quick dinner in Punjabi style. Great taste and quick service. Store has all the basic Indian stuff for your kitchen and you can njy some indian sweets which of course are little expensive.
