Fried appetizers, though, are less appealing. Pakoras coat mixed vegetables in a flour of ground chickpeas and are deep fried without becoming oily, but the finished dish is bland and lifeless. Same for the samosas, which boast an intensely spiced potato and pea mixture but still don't work as well as they could with the pastry. Skip these starters and dive right into the kebabs and curries and be sure to order plenty of naan and rice to go around the table.
Yes, you have to order rice and bread as a side, which is a little disappointing considering the curries can run as high as $22, but the portions are large and easily shared. Each curry is presented in a small copper karahi with a spoon for serving. Get as many dishes as will fit on your table (and the tables here are generous) along with an order or two of rice or bread and start sharing. This is how many Indians eat at home. And Indian mothers be damned — the food at Mughlai is just as good.
So glad this restaurant is finally getting the recognition it deserves - truly the best Indian food in Dallas - my daughters and I love it!
