Ordinary food with extravagant prices and small portion size. One of the rarest Indian restaurants that cannot accommodate a Jain diet except daal rice. Loved to see a separate vegan food menu. The ambience was good.

Every time we go to Santa Barbara, California we make sure to stop by this Delicious restaurant. It has wonderful vegan and gluten-free meals that are filling. They are always kind and generous and guiding us to which are the best vegan and gluten-free for our needs. The creamy items are not too milky like in other Indian and the vegetables are cooked where they’re still slightly crispy and not too limp. One has the option of how hot and spicy they want their meals from mild all the way to extra spicy .

NO STARS. used to be our favorite for decades. but, clearly has new management: now terrible. different pakoras, couldn’t make tikka masala mild and when I sent back they brought me mango chicken they thought i might luke better. ? then they spent 30 min making something else that was also not masala and they tried to guilt trip me into liking it because they were trying so hard. truly baffling service and attitude from staff. and sadly awful food now. never going back.
