Dal

“Gupshup has my absolute favorite dal makhani”

“Seconding Indian Accent (the dahl in the tasting menu was out of their world) and Moti Mahal.”

“I think the best chana masala I have tried so far are King of Tandoor, Mint Heights, and Angaan, while the best dal makhani is at GupShup, Moti Mahal Delux and Dhaba.”

“S-tier dal served at Indika House, just perfect.”

“The dal and goat curry were standouts.”

“12. Bungalow (Mostly North Indian) - Daal Bungalow”

“The Black Dal is really awesome and not terribly expensive, that + a naan or a bowl of rice would make a very reasonable meal.”

“After partition, vegetarian Sindhi cuisine is now primarily found in Mumbai, and Kailash Parbat offers a few highlights from this regional cooking, like their dal pakwan.”

“I love their daal and collard greens but my carnivore friends love the meat options.”

“Bombay bistro in West Village does North Indian really well - chicken tikka masala, dal makhani, mutton biryani, garlic naan - classic staples to the level of Indian wedding food”

“The portion sizes are extremely small; starter chicken is 3 small pieces. Naan and daal are also served in small portions.”

“Had an amazing dinner at Musaafer in Tribeca.”

“12-4 for lunch, they have a 14.95 special that comes with an entree of choice, pickled vegetables, naan, rice, and dal.”

“If you want to try another dish, I’d lean towards a dal.”

“My plate is usually chicken curry, saag aloo, dal over rice, and a big piece of naan. Very satiating”

“The cuisine is diverse so you will find things that you like (and do not like), so even a Bengal Tiger or Dhaba which I find fine will give you decent versions of the crowd favorites.”

“I also remember getting a side dish which said something fancy but then turned out be a knock off of a tiny amount of Indian Dal with Cornbread for ~$15”

“I wasn't a fan of the stuff I got there but then again most of my family who went with me really liked what they got so it might just be the dishes I tried (chana masala and dal makhani).”

“Dal makhani at Desi Galli (and many others a lot of badly made dal makhani are inedible levels or horrible but this is the absolute worst)”

“For some reason it has this grande dame status, but it's not good. I don't know how you make tasteless daal, but they managed.”
