What diners say
The samosa, particularly with chole or ragda, is what has made its name and still draws the warmest reviews, along with the parathas and the gajar ka halwa. The dominant recent theme, though, is decline: a large number of long-standing customers report smaller portions, flatter chutneys, occasional stale chole and an ordering system that has become a scrum, several dating the change to a split between the owners. Go for the samosa and keep expectations modest elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions
What is Gurukripa known for?
Its samosa, eaten with chole or ragda. That is what decades of reviewers come back for, more than anything else on a long menu.
Has it changed?
Many regulars think so. Reviews over the last few years repeatedly report smaller portions and less consistency than the place was famous for, so it is worth knowing before you make a journey.
