Reader report: Apna Pind debuts on 4th Street

EVG reader Danimal let us know that the quick-serve Indian restaurant Apna Pind opened yesteday at 128 E. Fourth St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue. (Signage alert here.) 

Apna Lind, which began as an outpost on Rockaway Boulevard in Jamaica, offers an array of Indian staples ... with four daily specials in the $13-$15 range from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

While it's mostly a to-go operation, there are seats for up to 16 people.

Last night, Danimal, who lives on the block, tried the chicken korma with white rice and got an order of garlic naan on the side. 

Per Danimal: "The food itself was excellent, served nice and hot, and super flavorful ... pretty large menu for such a small place — very happy with this new addition to the block!" 

Google lists its hours as 11:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.

Signage alert: Apna Pind on 4th Street

Here's a follow-up to this post... signage is up now for Apna Pind at 128 E. Fourth St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue. 

This, after photos of the menu showing "authentic Indian dishes" appeared on the storefront the other week. 

The logo matches that of the Apna Pind out on Rockaway Boulevard in Jamaica. They have an extensive menu of Indian staples, which you can view here. 

We're assuming this will be more of a pickup-and-delivery space, since the previous business, Village Cafe & Grill, only had a narrow window counter with three stools. 

Posted hours Apna Pind: 11 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
