“ A cute little shop in the Publix Plaza. The sign above the store says Indian Street Food. That peaked my curiosity the other day when I was hungry. I stopped in and ordered the Chicken Tikka bowl to go. The store was clean and organized. It's a small space but still has some tables if you would like to dine in. The service was good, the food was ready in less than ten minutes and everything went smooth. The chicken Tikka Masala had just the right amount of heat. It was a little thinner than I'm used to but excellent flavor and I noticed that they used chicken breast. I'm going to have to try the samosas next time. ”
“ The best Samosa EVER!!! Service is so nice and fast! They told me they cook all food freshly daily. Seriously, come try! ”
“ Amazing food!! Always fresh and savory. They even have lunch specials.. Owners and super sweet and friendly. This place will not disappoint:-) ”
“ Came here after searching for good Indian food in the area. The reviews did not lie and the food definitely didn't disappoint. The butter chicken was done to perfection. The chicken samosas were also great and the sauces they are served with also make a great pairing. The tandoori chicken pizza was super creative so I had to try it. It was extra cheesy and a great portion to share. The service was excellent. The staff is very sweet. ”
“ Soo good!! I tried samosa mama at yellow green market and was excited when they got a store front. The menu is traditional paired with fun. The pizza is a must try but my favorite was the butter chicken. The sauce was creamy and the chicken was tender. The employees were very patient with us and offered recommendations when we needed it. It is more of a lunch vibe but I would happily go back for dinner. ”
“ The mango lassi was super tasty and not overly sweet which I appreciated! I took my food home and my rice was sitting in a bit of water so once I pour the sauce over it, I believe it watered down the entire dish. The lamb was tender but I would like to try the butter chicken next time because I was looking for a much more rich and creamy texture for sauce. The garlic naan was a bit salty but it was very tender. Overall, I am happy that I stopped by and would definitely go back to try some other dishes! The service was pretty fast and the items were made fresh. There are seats in the restaurant with a welcoming ambiance should you choose to dine in. ”
“ Came across Samosa Mama when in the plaza and I'm always ready to try new options in my area, especially Indian food! I decided to order a few things so i could try a bunch of things. Went with the curry chicken bowl, butter chicken bowl, tandoori chicken, chicken samosas and garlic naan. I really like the fact that they offer bowls. You get the dish, rice, salad and naan all for what i think is a solid price. The curry chicken was really flavorful and honestly, had some kick to it. It was my favorite dish out of the 3. The butter chicken was pretty standard. Rich, tender and alright. For me, i wouldn't order it again, just not enough flavor. Tandoori chicken was that beautiful red color. Extremely tender but a little salty. With a little less salt this might have been my favorite dish. Also came with rice and salad. The Samosas were crispy and packed with filling. I used these to test all the sauces and every single one was delicious. The brown one was spiiiicy! All in all, I'll definitely be back to try a few other things and if i want a quick, easy, affordable Indian food experience in the area, this is the spot. ”
