Great personable service and the food is amazing. Service was quick and food fresh. The naan was made fresh to order. I love the patio area for outdoor seating.

Haven't really eaten a lot of Indian food in my life, my wife and I wanted to try this place for a while now. The lady who helped us who very nice and extremely helpful explaining what everything was. You can even get a sample. My wife and I got the bowls, she got the Chicken Tiki Masala and I got the Panang chicken, both excellent, with a ton of flavor. Don't get me started on the garlic naan bread, sooo good. I think our meals with drinks were $13.00 each, a great deal and cheaper and healthier than any burger place. We will be back hopefully sooner than later.

The food is delicious, coming not spicy (if your kiddos don't like spicy food), however you can make your meal as spicy as you would like with additional condiments. Their chili oil is very spicy, so be cautious when adding. We like our food spicy, and with a small portion added, my heat went from a 1 to a 4 (out of 6).Our kids had the Butter Chicken and loved it. My wife and I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and Panang Chicken Curry, and with the rice and vegetables, we all left full! Surprisingly good food for a quick Indian option. We will be back. (No photo of the food but will snap one next time). Give this place a try. You just might be surprised. Arvind (owner/chef) is pouring his heart into this small spot, and it shows.

Thanks to Yelp, I heard about Curry in a Hurry and decided to try it for myself. It was such a great experience!The store is very clean and the service was wonderful. The woman who took my order was very helpful in explaining their menu. I was able to sample the items that I was interested in before placing my order. I decided on the butter chicken. It was very mild, but they offer a side of chili oil if you want to add some spice to it. Warning: it is VERY spicy, so a little goes a long way. Adding some in definitely brought the dish altogether for me. It's convenient that you can adjust the spice to your personal preference. I can't wait to come back here again! Side note: read about the "Man Behind the Plan," how neat is that? :D

Curry in a Hurry is pretty great! I really like the concept of having a fast choice for this sort of grub. The naan is fantastic and they cook it to order on this cool circular machine. It's so very steamy, hot and yummy. They have these little baby samosas, chicken and veg., they aren't homemade, but still pretty good. The butter chicken is really good. I love that they have Stubborn Soda in 4 flavors, it's one of my faves. They have limited seating, but it's easy to take away too! I love the signage on the parking outside and the patio seating is pretty nice, as soon as it cools down a bit, I'm sure it will be getting some use.I will definitely be back.

I saw that this place opened up near my house and wanted to try it because I really enjoy Indian food. It was nice that I could order for pick up online. I ordered the friend cheese tikka masala and buttered chicken plate. My wife ordered the fried cheese tikka masala bowl and our son got the beef and potato bowl. My wife and I thought that the fried cheese tikka masala was good, but we didn't feel it was special. This would have been only been a 4 star review, but I'm so glad I ordered the butter chicken. The butter chicken was 5 star for me and my wife. He was enjoying her choice until I told her to try my butter chicken. She took one bite and her jaw dropped. The chicken had a crispy texture and great flavor, even though it sat in the sauce as I drove the 10 minutes back to my house from the restaurant. The flavor of the sauce was so good that my wife kept dipping her garlic naan into my sauce as we ate. I will probably be back to try their other foods, but I will definitely always order the butter chicken. As my wife said, the tikka masala was good, but the butter chicken is definitely 5 star. It's been a day since I ordered, and writing this review it making me crave that butter chicken right now. The storefront is small with limited seating, so I would suggest ordering online and getting it to go if it's for more than just 1 or 2 people. The service was a little slow, but I also got there at the same time as two other couples/families and this is a new place, so that was understandable. I'm sure they'll be faster as they get up and running.

Ideal lunch spot with filling bowls and plates of Indian food! I order online for pick up and my food was ready when I arrived and the staff was friendly giving me extra chili and plastic wear. When I got my order home I tried my bowl of butter chicken. The veggies, sauce, and rice were all great and filling. The garlic naan is pretty moist but covered in garlic and butter so that's a huge plus! Garlic lovers will be thrilled. My only issue was that the chicken itself was strange. The bites of chicken were rough? Not sure how to explain it but it felt crispy under the sauce and was not the chicken texture you'd expect or want in an Indian dish. I'll try this place again though and hope it was just a weird one time thing. I didn't finish the chicken because to me the texture made it inedible.
