Great casual spot for a low key lunch or dinner. Great flavor on the paneer tikka masala. The little burritos are also really good. Pretty massive portions as well

very chill & good food. I come here to study during their down hours. The food isnt that spicy (though its possible ive burned my taste buds off) even when requested but it tastes very good and is super filling

I came to this place for masala chai and chaat, both were quite authentic. The chaat had the proper tangy and spicy taste. Good place for Indian street food

We stumbled into Desi Galli on Ave. B, and were we glad we did! It was a great experience, starting with a friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable staff. The "main act" though was the food. Outstanding on all dimensions. My main gripe is that I was too full to try more from the menu. A definite winner! More...

I go here all the time since I live close by and always go back. They have the best chicken tikka masala, chaat, and huge proportions for the prices. The staff is also really nice.
