Great local Indian food! After walking by this place several times with my wife we finally decided to stop by for lunch, I now I have to live with the regret of having discovered this place with only weeks left before we move away from NYC. This place would have definitely become one of our regular neighborhood dinner spots. Food was fresh and perfectly seasoned, veg samosas were perfect, rice nice, flaky and refreshing. Service was nice given we were one of two tables early in the day. Check these guys out this place is unassuming and definitely a sleeper.

This small family owned restaurant is genuinely a hidden gem located conveniently in east Harlem close to central park and just off the FDR. The atmosphere, beautiful interior, welcoming staff, and most importantly the delicious food made my dining experience extremely memorable. We ordered the chicken biryani, butter chicken which came with a side of rice, vegetable samosas, and the garlic naan which was all cooked to perfection. It was flavorful, authentic, and made with love. Their serving sizes were large enough where I left stuffed AND with leftovers perfect for a midnight snack or breakfast the next day. The chef himself personally came out to greet us and to check on how we were enjoying the food which was so sweet. All in all, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit and I will be back for sure!

This place is truly a hidden gem in NYC. I’ve been to countless Indian restaurants in NYC but this is truly one of the best ones. The food is absolutely delicious- the chicken tikka masala and truffle fries were my favorite. The best part is, everything is halal and affordable! The interior is cozy and cute, and you can tell how much effort was put into the decor. The owner/chef is so sweet; he stopped by our table to ask if everything was okay. This is also located in a pretty convenient area, so I totally recommend checking it out. You won’t be disappointed!!
