Great flavors, lamb and chicken were both tender. Dessert wasn’t too sweet but satisfied our cravings.

We have visited this place during our trip for quick bite ! It was great down town near place but tough to get parking in a street ! Food perspective great food ! Well cooked ! Great taste ! They made food how we describe to them. Good place to visit and enjoy Indian food ! Lot of chicken ,Lamb and veg varieties but less fish in the menu. Price is decent ! Might be get higher soon due to inflation!

I have never had a chicken curry that is such watery and tasteless :/ the chicken is also very dry. Garlic naan is ok.

It was hot outside this evening, 89 F at 8 pm. It was hot inside the restaurant too, uncomfortably so. Food was OK, tamarind chutney was bad tasting. My spinach & panir was good. The peas & panir Was runny & panir under done. Noisy & small place. Nice people. Parking is difficult.

My friends and I went to this place for dinner and lunch. We ordered biryani, tandoori chicken,keema naan, garlic naan, paneer tikka masala and some drinks. Overall the quantity and quality of food is good. We dint like samosa chat, chicken pakora and malai tikka. They dint have any staff but still able to manage the orders on time so great service I would say. Overall recommended place for food lovers.

Some of the best Indian food I’ve had in awhile! My sister got the paneer makhni (mild) and I got the chicken makhni (mild), which is also known as butter chicken. The service was really good and everyone was very sweet. I gave 4/5 stars for the atmosphere because there was no music so sometimes it just felt a bit quiet. I think playing some music will make the atmosphere even nicer! Next time I come here, I want to get the samosas. Definitely give this place a try!

Extremely poor quality, very expensive and very very hot, despite requesting mild, uneatable , the biryani is basically rice and few pieces of chicken.

I didn’t want to post a negative review since of all the Indian restaurants I’ve known, the food here seems to be among the tastiest. But there are two ‘but’s and they are not minor: a) People need to be warned that if they select spice level “medium” they are still likely to end up with what elsewhere would fall under “brutally hot;” b) It is quite difficult to deal with a restaurant where the person who answers the phone and gets you your order barely speaks and understands English. You want to find out how late they take online orders? He doesn’t understand. You want to know the difference between two similarly named dishes? After asking the question three times he tells you, “yes, different.” You want to ask for something extra? Forget it.

I’ve ordered takeout from here a few times and it’s usually pretty good. This most recent time however the tikka masala looked abnormally orange yet was super flavorless. The spices were not coming through at all. Naan was a little oily too.

Tried this place for the first time with a friend who comes here all the time…it did not disappoint. I’ve only had Indian food about a handful of times, and this place is the best thus far! We started with the chicken pakora which came with two different sauces and were delectable. We then shared the Lamb Korma, Goat Karahi and garlic naan. I wish I had taken pictures. Highly recommend.
