Mrs. Balbir's

Famous for it's authentic North Indian home style cooking. Offers a selection of vegetarian, meat dishes, nan breads, pilaus and Tandoori chicken. Gary Adams: I have traveled around the world and eaten Indian food in Europe, America, Asia, and Africa. Simply put, Mrs. Balbir's is THE BEST. As an additional bonus, you will get to meet Mrs. Balbir, who is very genuine, very chatty, and occasionally a real hoot. She styles herself as a "people person" and she's not wrong. All that and a bag of nan bread. Remember the Deli scene from "When Harry met Sally"? more..
