Lamb Biryani from House Of Curries was Excellent as Usual.
Mr. Joginder Singh Tiwari , the Mgr. , was Very Polite om the Fone.
Mango Lassi ( Mango Pulp , Yogurt & Sugar Shake ) was Epic , Indian Chai Tea was Very Authentic !
' Hit the Spot ' on a' Rainy, Lazy Late Friday Afternoon ' !!!
I do wish there was a li'l less ' Mutton ', & More Potatoes.
Spice Level : I requested Medium & It was Ideal !!!
Only bummer was : ' Something to do with ' Alameda County ' New Waste Guidelines ' - I have received No Paper Napkin or Plasticware with my last few Doordash Orders !!!!
Fresh Tamarind Sauce was Epic, abd Paired Well with Lamb Biryani !!!
A great Medium Sized Neighborhood Eatery to Support post Covid - 19.
They do Chef : Wheat ROTI Bread No Oil, & Great Curries like the Vindaloo Curries, Saag Aaloo, Channa Masala & Goat Curries ( Potato & Meat Goan Curry, Punjabi Spinanch & Potatoes , Garbanzo Beans , All Curried, and Piping Hot Garlic & Plain Naan baked in Tandoor Clay Oven. EPIC

Goat Biryani was Excellent !!!
As was the " MANGO LASSI " !!!
Meat was ' Tender & Well Marinated '.
I had to call the Eatery prior to Delivery & Mr. Ashim was ' Very POLITE ' as Usual.
A Neighborhood Small Business worth ' Supporting ' post Covid - 19.
Wish they'd stay open a bit later like ' Hamro Aangan - Indo-Nepalese, or Cafe Raj - Indo-Pakistani till 11 p.m.
9 p.m. close a bit early.
Esply. 4 ' Weekends ' !!!!
ENJOY !!!!

Lamb Buyani had ' Ample Quantity of Meat ', and they added Potatoes as ' Requested '. No Cilantro Greens & a Bit Soggy.
Less Oil n some Stemed White Rice scattered through woulda been nice.
Had their Curries before - Good.
Quantity was Ideal / Generous. 2 coulda shared with Saag dish on the side.
Punjabi Curried Spinach Dish. Think they'd run out of Chai - late Evening.
No Utensils in Bag. A lot of Eataries do the same.
Had called there to ' Verify Order had Reached '.
Mr. Joginder Singh Tiwari - the New Mgr. was very nice as usual.
Enclosed Mint Chutney w/order. Maybe forgot Tamarind Chutney, or they were out !!!!

Very near my Residence, and I have frequented them a lot in my 12 years living in ALBANY.
Food is always Fresh & Chai is always readily available in a Flask 4 cheap !!!
It's a " SELF - SERVE type EATERY.
They always stock Crockery, Cutlery, Straws and Napkins up front - on the Wooden Shelf to the Right as one Enters.
I was there 3 times last week. 2 out of three times " GOAT VINDALOO CURRY was WAY too SPICY. ( PUNGENT i.e.)
To NEUTRALIZE IT I was forced to buy 2 RAITHA Yogurt Sauces which were too SALTY !!!
When Cook ' FAISAL ' is In Control things seem more Neutral.
He was off on one of the days ....
Roberto is a very sweet fellow who seems to help heat / cook whatever ....
I tried to convey to him that I found my food " UNPALATABLE ", but I think that went " Over his Head " !!!
He had a good laugh ; he probably can handle " Muy Caliente ", but I find it Overpowers the Usual " NEUTRAL & ' JUST RIGHT ' flavor....
SUMAN & ASHIM @ the Register are Very Pleasant Hosts , but neither seemed to have the ability to be " Proactive " in Correcting the Situation.
I did text the Owner who I have met Dining there in the Past.
Hope the Situation gets REMEDIED, as I Love the ' Cafe Style Ambience ', Location & Parking - almost bang across from Safeway beside ORANGE THEORY on SOLANO AVENUE in ALBANY ....
