Desi Galli Murray Hill

I got the Aloo Gosht Roll and the Chicken Tikka Masala with medium spice. It was really good. The restaurant was not that packed when I got there around 5 pm. The food was great and very flavorful. My two items with 15% tip was $35.31. The Aloo Gosht was really good and I would recommend the chicken Tikka Masala.

PROs - good Kathi rolls , good location CONs - taste in some items , a little expensive combos Desi galli has been around for a longgggg time . Their Kathi rolls are very famous and fills up your stomach . Very good location .. right on heart of Lexington Avenue where all other restaurants are . No parking available . Good for visitors who walk around in Lex ave . There was some road work going on . It was very dusty outside and we could hardly see the shop . Inside the shop, there are no seats when you enter : I thought it was To-Go only but they said there are seats at the basement . Nice seating arrangement inside . Few seats but it looked comfortable . Went inside looking at Maggie samosa menu outside . It was very average . Maggie wasn’t tasty inside the samosa.. it was quite bland and no spice or salt . 🧂.. chutneys were good though. Would not recommend Maggi samosa . I loved their aloo paneer tikki kathi roll … for 8$ it was worth it . I actually just got a roll and samosa and the lady in counter said it’s better to get the same as a combo. I believed her and it looked like I paid more on a combo - which was about 15$.. Kathi roll plus samosa was 12$ !! I got confused when she offered the combo offer but it was just to get charged more . I still recommend their Kathi rolls . Really good . I think for 18-20$ it was expensive ! In other places around you will get a big fat meal for the same money ! 3 stars ! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️

I stopped in for lunch and got 2 maggi samosas and the vegan beyond Kathi roll. The maggi samosa was fun to try, though the maggi wasn’t as flavorful as it could be. It was served with a sweet chutney, but I think it would have been better with a savory chutney that maybe had maggi seasoning in it. The Kathi roll was really delicious! The beyond meat was super tender, and the roll as a whole was satisfying. The restaurant does have a downstairs seating area where you can eat, but it’s not super big. I was the only one eating in when I was there mid-day on a Sunday, but multiple to-go orders were picked up while I was there eating.
