The best Indian food in the city
I have been going to Minar's for over 10 years. I get the Korma, Chicken or Lamb, bread, Naan, Papadum and friends get other things. The food has Always been great and you get a lot. The people are friendly, too. I will always go to Minar's for Indian.

good, reasonably priced indian cuisine
I dont know why people are hating on the flavor of this food. I'm currently devouring chicken vindaloo, which I ordered pick up. It is fantastic. For $8 this is a lot of food. Well packed. friendly people. I'll be back.

Minar rules!
Chicken Tikka Masala is the best I have ever had. Any of their dishes will provide enough food for a whole day... and the samosas.... oh those samosas.....

Superb for Takeout
If you only care about the food, then Minar Palace is one of the best Indian places in Philly. Other reviews on this page are accurate when it comes to the lack of class in the decor and atmosphere. Don't go here for a big night out, call in and pick up, grab some a beer at the convenience store next door, and enjoy some excellently prepared Indian food in the comfort of your own home. Thats my suggestion.

Awesome food, you have to live with the plates
This is one of my favourite Indian restaurants in the world (literally). Their chicken vindaloo is one of my all time favourite dishes. Their aloo dum is a close second. Compares favourably with any of the center City Indian restaurants charging 3-4 times the amount for food that is at best of the same standard and typically not as good (or home cooked feel) I used to visit this place in its old incarnation on Sansom, but the food is just as good now in its new location, and the ambience much better. The plastic plates and cutlery remain a mystery to me - though they are probably much more hygenic than the silverware that is poorly washed at some of the more upmarket places. Recommend this place hands down.

Indian Food At it's Finest!
I completely agree with the past couple reviews...Minar is a fast food indian restaurant with a really really nice decor. The food is amazing, the family who owns it is very sweet and the prices are great! My wife and I go to Minar often and have yet to find it anything but packed when we do go for Lunch or Dinner. The fact that Minar lasted 15 years in a dingy broken down Sansom street building where there were practically no other businesses for its last 5 or so years says something significant. This place has a cult like following.....count me in

love this place!
So glad Minar is back... and if you saw the place on Sansom you would truly understand that this is such a great improvement..... I have always found the staff to be nice despite the obvious language barrier... food is cheap and yummy.... if you're taking a date... don't be a cheapskate and then wonder why they are serving plastic utensils....it is what it is... good, cheap food....
