The best secret for amazing Indian Food. A real hidden gem, inside the Poor Boys Sandwich shop. The Chef has been cooking for over 25 years and his pride and love are definitely expressed, by serving some of the most amazing Indian Cuisine my Family has ever tasted. He cooks all of the traditional Indian Cuisine (in traditional fashion,) in his kitchen located at the back of the establishment. There is a lot of selections, but we’ve tried them all. Besides what’s on the menu, there are specials posted daily, like Tandoori Fish (which is amazing.) I highly recommended ordering the garlic naan bread with your meal. This hidden gem is so good, that I don’t want to give away my secret, but I’m also so happy to share this restaurant, so others can enjoy like my family does. We met the owner and Chef, they are very sweet and kind people that are very proud of their food. Note- We call and order in advance for eat in or take out. Everything is made fresh with love, so there could be a 15 or 20 minute wait. Lastly, prices are amazing for quality and amount of food. I promise you will love Ellie’s Indian Curry Corner.

This was/is primarily a sub shop, however recently I passed by and saw they had Indian food.. I was very happy with my chicken tika.. quite delicious! Two drum sticks and two small thigh pieces on the bone over peppers and onions served with lemon wedges.. the chicken was very tasty. I will go back to try others things. I was expecting rice with it but you’ll have to order a side. I do recommend trying the Indian if you’re a fan.

If you're into top notch Indian Food, this place has done it. Inside the old Poor Boys Shop is Ellie's Indian Curry Corner. They have an extensive menu of Indian foods. We ordered for take out Chicken Tikki Masala, Tandoori Chicken, Samosas, Jeera Rice and Papdi Chaat. We couldn't have been happier. The flavors and Spices will blow you away Huge portions also. If you want a change from Chinese Italian and Burgers you must try them. Enough food for 4 for around $60. Can't beat it.

This was our second time ordering from the Indian portion of Poor Boys and once again it was Excellent!! We got 3 different dishes and they were all super tasty. And don’t forget to get one of their breads. Delicious. Can’t wait to try it again. By the way we met the chef and he was such a nice guy as well as the owner.
