For appetizers, we ordered the Chicken Seekh kabab and samosa w/ cholley. I highly recommend the chicken seekh kabab. It is on a grill and it is so delicious sizzled with pepper and onions. For the main we ordered chicken tikka masala, chicken curry, and lamb vandalo. The chicken tikka masala is to die for here. I couldn’t have enough. The lamb vandalo is good but very very spicy. the lamb is tender and not gamy at all. Needless to say

I’ve had the pleasure of dining at this Indian cuisine on three occasions, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The food is incredibly flavorful, and they offer a wide range of options. What’s particularly noteworthy is that the dishes aren’t overly spicy, making it a fantastic choice for those who prefer milder flavors. The staff is friendly and accommodating, enhancing the overall dining experience. Considering the delicious offerings and the warm service, the prices feel entirely justified. I highly recommend this place for a satisfying and enjoyable Indian food experience.

First impression- there is nobody to welcome. No one to assign you a table. Just sit where you find space and wait for 5 minutes before someone will come to your table to take your order.

Just another neighbourhood Indian restaurant with no speciality. I ate chicken chowmin which was good. There is not much options available in menu ! Food is overpriced if you compare the taste, quality and the quantity. The restrooms are clean, however out of toilet papers !!

Food was very good, tasted fresh, and like home. When we got our food it was hot and you can tell it was just made. It was the first time my family cleared out our plates eating at a restaurant and it was so good we couldn’t stop eating. I highly recommend the Malai Kufta and Goat Biryani, along with the Mango Lassi !!

Found this little Gem for all my Indian food needs and is the best I’ve had in the NYC area. I had the lamb curry with rice and Naan which was delightful. I fashion myself an A list reviewer so I almost always take picture before the meal but I guess the food was that good that I hopped right in! Doh.
