We loved freshly cooked food and service at this place. On our way to royal taj, we gave order on phone and they kept food and table ready for 11 of us to pay later – while most other restaurants do not allow ordering for dine in till we are at restaurant. we finished everything and their owner was extremely sweet and welcoming. They are very reasonable priced as well. We would surely go back.

Very good authentic punjabi food. Everything we ordered was very tasty. Butter chicken, puri, baingan bharta, aloo gobi were really good, authentic and not americanized.

Hands down one of the best Indian food I have ever had. Chef Praveen came to our table and talked to us so passionately about how he cooks the food for his customers. If you are in the area this is a must try. Chicken kali mirch, Chicken Biryani everything was so good. Also Kheer is a must try it’s one the best Kheer I have ever had. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Excellent North Indian food. Delicious and full of authentic flavors. They were a tiny bit slow to serve, but it could be because we all were hungry. However, the wait was totally worth it.

Too good! Amazing authentic food, excellent service, chef is awesome. Short 1 mile detour if you are driving towards Death Valley or Las Vegas from Bay Area. I’d give them another 5 stars if that was an option.
