Reviews for Desi District - Mckinney in McKinney, TX
One of our go to restaurants for Indian Tea! Their food, I'll not say is the best, but not bad either. This instance we had... Masaledaar Paneer Burger which is really famous as per what we were told. It was good, it was really good. We also had KathiRoll. The roti/wrap tasted and felt stale. It wasn't fresh at all. Lastly we had their Mysor Masala Dosa, which was fairly good.Overall I'd say it's a good place for a quick snack. Read more
Took on july 2nd, Snack items are awesome, fried rice need more veggies and also veggies to be cooked. Otherwise service and... snack items were very good. Stuffed parathas are a flop. Paneer pastha and punugulu were highlight. Read more
Hidden little gem - was excited to try different things on the menu! Lots of unique combinations. Unfortunately the kitchen was... closed so options were limited to biryani, kati rolls and burgers. We got Kati rolls - chicken tikka which was delicious and thechicken achar rolls. We also got a chicken Patties along with Mango lassi and salty lassi. Everything was delicious? butdisappointed in the lack of open kitchen and the water lol 4 ounce caps with warm water. Would come back again. Read more
To be unable to give a good review when Desi District is so close to home breaks my heart and is like a punch to the gut.... Really, I've been excited to try the restaurant portion of this store since it opened but simply hadn't found the time untillast night. After a stressful week in which my sons plead incessantly for Indian food, we decided to give Desi District a go.Roughly AN HOUR and about HALF A DOZEN INQUIRIES after ordering, a kind gentleman finally looked at the computer, told me myorder would be ready in five minutes and ran back into the kitchen. Now, during the hour that had elapsed, I'd estimate I'd seenat least 50 people come into the restaurant, order their food and leave (or sit down) with it. This having been the case, withmy husband and the kids--two of whom delighted over their delicious mango lassis--having already retired to the car thirty or sominutes earlier, I was still very hopeful that what we'd ordered would delight all of our taste buds. However, upon arrivingback home, to start things off, our appetizer--Mixed Vegetable Pokada--was so cold and gummy that I had to throw it in our airfryer to perk it up. (Otherwise, I probably would've tossed it in the trash.) Now, the presentation wasn't poor but it was farfrom noteworthy; if anything, I'd say most of it was a fair emulation of a Western sandwich shop with a big bun and chips in abox; however, that's probably on us for letting the kids pick Butter Chicken Tikka Burgers for themselves. On that note though,each and every one of the kids were disappointed with the big buns and small portion of what they each said was "too spicy" forthem. Having had butter chicken many times, I know they know what they like. (Kids, y'know?) As for me, I had Masala Dosa andDal Tadka, both of which were underwhelming despite their presentation being more along the lines of what was expected forIndian fast food. Sadly, the dosa, though not bad, was unremarkable, as were the contents. To bring it Read more
Food taste is good overall . But price is high compared to amount . I ordered mutton roast . It?s actually a dry mutton curry... not roast . Taste good but should be cheaper for amount . I ordered chili fish . It does not look like pictures. The curry parttaste good but some pieces of fish smell . The best order was Tadka dal and kathi roll . They are good compared to price . Iwould give 5 star if they keep price little less or give something extra . For example they could provide nan / rice / saladwith fish or goat . But it came stand alone and price is 15+ Read more
Veggie monos, bullet naan was good. Snacks are good too. Wall art reminds of Indian mood.
I enjoyed the cafe/food court environment and snacks. I didn't care much for the store as they don't have good space or... arrangement for the aisles mainly for vegetables. Felt very tight. I hope they will improve as time goes on. Read more
Worst restaurant have ever seen . Biriyani is gross and see the below pic of mutton curry . I never ever seen a curry layered... like this when you keep in the refrigerator. And the food is not fresh and they do heat and serve which was prepared thee orfour days back . I don?t recommend this restaurant. Waste of money Read more
