as usual, delicious Indian food, ample portions and excellent service from Veronica. We enjoyed samosas, garlic naan, butter lamb, tandoori chicken tikka, eggplant with peas , with rice and papadums (comp). Everything was great!! That's our usual order, always the best food , with nice leftovers to take home. We come here often and have introduced friends to this restaurant.

Its been over 5 years since we have come here because of prior disappointment. However, we now think it was wonderful!!!! Had the chicken tikka kabobs and chicken maladaptive and both very very flavorful and fresh!!! Server was a sweetheart too. We definitely plan to return when craving Indian. Even though we felt great value for the portion size (both of us leftovers), i wish they had HH so we could go more often and taste different foods easily!

Took my adult family and my mom and sister visiting from Florida to celebrate my mom's birthday and we had a wonderful time. The food and service was excellent and the manager was attentive. I definitely recommend this place!
