Bland bland bland biryani with tiny, bland pieces of meat. The curry and samosas were alright. The cheese naan was surprisingly good.

When I arrived with my roommate we were sat at a table that was unfinished and was served a bit later than usual. However, after the longer than usual wait for the meal we were served and were VERY happy with the food. Honestly, the food over rode the negative customer service experience. Definitely try this place out at least once and try the dry cuisines first instead of the curries.

The food was excellent, but we got the strangest “vibe” from our server, the owner, all throughout our meal.

Was a bit shocked to see we were the only ones there on a Saturday night, but decided to try it since we were there and wanted some Indian food. I am SO glad we did. The food was delicious! Vegetable samosas, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, dal makhani. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Their spice scale goes from one to six, six being the hottest. We ordered the chicken tikka masala at a three and it was perfectly seasoned, had a nice flavor without much heat. I ordered my dal at a four and it was on point! I can honestly say it’s the best dal I’ve had, hands down. Rich flavoring with a heat that builds after every delicious spoonful.

The worst Indian food we have ever eaten in a restaurant. Food was stale, undercooked, and looks like they had mixed leftovers and served.

I just want to say. I haven’t been to the restraint. I’ve only had their food at the IU campus and that’s the only thing that felt authentic to me. Going to wells library going to look for food, man I’m glad I got the glove. So if this means anything to anyone, definitely going to check it out. Come check it out with me!
