Food was tasty. Service was great. The owner is very friendly and comes to every table to check on us. He made us feel very welcome and had good some good chats. We ordered mainly vegetarian items like kali dal, sag paneer, bread basket and chicken korma. Everything came out perfect. The food wasn’t that oily or too spicy. Just similar to how we cook at home. Overall A+.

I walked 10 minutes in 115 degree heat to get here, totally worth it. I know we don’t always think of classic Indian cuisine when we think Arizona, but that needs to change. Phenomenal food and great service (even with them being super busy!!!!). Freddy was a delight and actively working hard to attend to everyone’s needs!!!

We went here for my buddy’s birthday treat. The place is a hidden gem atleast for me as I was looking for some good Indian restaurants in that area for quite sometime. We had such a great time in that jovial atmosphere. Besides that the food was great, They also had Hayward 5000, which brought back some of my old college memories.
