I had a great meal sitting down at Monk's Westheimer and Monk's Pearland, so it was a disappointment to order from the closer Monk's Heights and get identically named dishes that had completely different recipes.
Chicken Tikka Masala was watery and mild, and didn't have the bell peppers or thickness or savory level of spice that the Pearland version had.
Spicy Masala Noodle - Regular was alright, but was a smaller portion and not as addictive as what I got from Westheimer. I wouldnt get it again.
Gully was spicy fried chicken nuggets. B+, never had it before, probably won't order again.
Monk's Special Momo we got the tandoor chicken version. The outside was pleasantly spiced and the meat to wrapping ratio was much higher than other cuisine's dumplings. But I think I would rather just get tikka.
The Plain Naan was fine, and unexceptional other than being an unusually good value at $2 for something larger than my head.
I will give credit for all the chicken being relatively moist, which is a huge problem for Indian takeout. And the rice was good. I'll order from Westheimer next time.

Sizzling Cumin Lamb was very dry, lamb tasted old, and does not come with any sides like rice or bread. I think they should advice customers to add an order of rice or bread to the order although it should not be extra for a $20 dish.
Tandoor Murgh was good, it is served with pickle onions only though.
Goat Biryani - Regular Pack, tasty, but it is just regular basmati rice with pieces of goat placed randomly. It is not the traditional aromatic biryani, with the added ingredients, but it was ok.
There was a lot of basmati rice with the few pieces of goat so we used the rest of the rice for the lamb.
Overall a ok. Although, we paid for express delivery, but it looks like the restaurant took extra time to prepare the food.

Butter masala had very little chicken in it for how much it costs. Also two pieces were basically all gristle. Flavor was ok but I could go get a simmer sauce and cook my own chicken and it would be 10x better. So small portions, especially of meat. Then the garlic naan was $ 4.50 but was just big slices of overly garlic soggy bread. Again HEB make your own butter chicken would be way better than this place. I will avoid it in the future. Very much a let down

Ordered the chicken tikka masala and shrimp hookah wok noodles. Everything tasted good, however the amount of chicken in the tikka masala dish was disappointing. It looks like they took a small piece of chicken and chopped it into smaller pieces!
