"The owner, Hassan, is an absolute gem of a person! I have been a customer of Mood Café for over a year - and the food is so incredible *chefs kiss* - but have continuously come back to see Hassan and chat with him. If you're stopping in for a meal, a lassi, or just to say hi you will never forget the experience! (Both photos taken by me!)"

"Wow. What a phenomenal experience and meal. The gentleman behind the counter (the owner?) was helpful and kind, guiding me and my dining partner to the right spice level for our meals, not tp mention treating us to dessert after we were stuffed. Both my (mild) paneer tikka masala and his (spicy) chicken biryani were delectable, and I loved the sweet carrot dessert with nuts on top - bonus: it felt so healthy. And the mango peach lassi was outstanding. Don't hesitate before enjoying a delicious meal freshly prepared and graciously served at the fast counter location. Might be tough to grab one of the 2-3 tables available at a busy moment."

"A cozy spot in the neighborhood near my daughter's apartment. I had my first lassi and got a mango lassi at the owners recommendation. Great option! He also provided a special taste of the rose mango lassi as a surprise. If I lived in Philly I think it would be a wonderful spot for some Indian meals."

"5 Stars – A Must-Visit Hidden Gem! If I could give Mood Cafe more than five stars, I would! This place isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a spiritual experience for your taste buds. I’ve eaten a lot of Indian food in my life, but nothing—and I mean NOTHING—comes close to what Mood Cafe serves up. Let’s start with the naan. I don’t know what kind of magic they’re working in that kitchen, but it’s the softest, most buttery, flavor-packed naan I’ve ever eaten. Perfectly blistered, warm, and pillowy—it’s basically a cloud of deliciousness. Now onto the lassi drinks—good lord. The rose cardamom lassi tastes like it was handcrafted by angels. You can tell it’s made with real rose, not some watered-down syrup. It’s floral, creamy, and perfectly spiced. The mango lassi? Fresh mango, no weird aftertaste, no fake stuff—just pure tropical sunshine in a glass. And the food? Let’s just say I still dream about the chicken tikka masala. The sauce is rich, velvety, bursting with layers of spice and flavor, and the chicken is so tender it falls apart with your fork. The biryani is fragrant, bold, and every bite is a flavor bomb—like your soul is being hugged by saffron and spice. But what makes Mood Cafe truly unforgettable is the owner. He greets you like an old friend, checks on you like family, and creates an atmosphere that feels like you’re sitting in your own family’s kitchen, watching magic happen on the stove. It’s warm, it’s welcoming, and it’s real. If you haven’t eaten here yet, go now. Run, don’t walk. Everyone deserves to experience this level of love and flavor at least once in their life. Mood Cafe is not just food—it’s a whole mood."

"We ended up coming to Mood after we weren't able to eat somewhere else, and what a little gem we discovered! We ordered Paneer Tikka Masala, Shahi Paneer, and Garlic Naan, which was quite possibly the best garlic naan we've ever had. Not only was it covered in garlic and butter, but other herbs as well. The Shahi Paneer was also a delicious, rich, creamy sauce, and the owner even custom-made a wonderful hot sauce for me from the Paneer Tikka Masala that was so delicious that I took the extra home. Thanks for such an unexpectedly delicious experience!"
