Good and delicious food. Owner is very friendly and interacts well. I have their tea everyday and it is awesome. The Dahi Papad Chat and Cauliflower Manchurian dry is very good.

Came here to pick up a big lunch on a Wednesday. ordering over the phone was super easy and the food was ready when I came to pick it up. There is parking space on the street and in a parking lot that is shared with the other restaurants around. The store had an ample amount of people that looked like workers from the companies nearby.

PLS TAKE CAUTION BEFORE GOING TO THIS RESTAURANT. WE HAD SUCH A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! WORST FOOD, BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE. GOAT CURRY WAS FULL OF OIL, HEAVY SPICES, FEW MEAT, IT WAS STALE, THEY JUST MICROWAVED IT , SAMOSAS WERE STALE, SEEMS LIKE THEY MADE IT FROM WEEKS, JUST REFRIED IT!! SO DISGUSTING AND UNHEALTHY!!

This is a great spot to get a quick fix for north Indian and Pakistani cuisine without your wallet taking a hit. We’ve been here a few times both for lunch and dinner.
