Food was pretty good. Staff was very attentive. The chicken 65 was cooked very nicely. Although not spicy at all. The momo was very fresh but not as good as I’d expected. I really enjoyed the tandoori chicken and the garlic naan. My friends Jelfrazi was a bit over cooked and chewy though.

Lots of great things about this Restaurant. Service was fast, efficient and friendly, economical. New and very clean maybe a little spartan in atmosphere.

I had the chicken thali for lunch, and it was decent. The portion size was good, and the dishes like butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, daal, raita, pickle, butter naan, basmati rice, dessert, papad, and salad were served fresh and warm. While the flavors were okay, they didn’t exactly stand out or leave a lasting impression. If you’re looking for a simple and satisfying meal with generous portions, it could be a suitable choice, but don’t expect anything extraordinary.

This place is truly a hidden gem! The staff always goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and appreciated. My husband and I love coming here because the food is absolutely DELICIOUS! The lentil soup and samosas are a must for appetizers. The amount of flavor for each dish it out of this world. If you haven’t had Indian cuisine before I highly recommend the butter chicken and the chicken vindaloo. These dishes are served with a generous side of fresh rice and savory sauces. Don’t forget to order the butter naan! Lastly if you have a sweet tooth, their rice pudding and desserts are amazing! Perfect spot for a nice date night, or a family night out.

We had a very tasty dinner at this place. Service was quick and friendly. Food was delicious and wasn’t spiced down to cater to people who may not be used to spicy food. So, had authentic Indian taste. Decor was lovely, with paintings of various “tirths” (places of worships.

Great food! Definitely my new favorite place to get Indian food. I’ve probably drove past this place a dozen times not realizing it was here (came to check it out based on the google reviews) but it’s definitely worth going to.
