22$ for a big selection of a bunch of curry and other sides. I got to try a bunch of different dishes I've never had before and I loved it. Would definitely go back again. The naan is made to order and very fresh.

I m a regular customer at the Valley Plaza location they not only have good quality authentic Indian food at a fair price but the staff posses excellent customer service skills and etiquettes making it a fine dine in experience even tough its a mall location. They have the best Indian food in this town the same way i have the best Pizza in Bakersfield ( that comes with 100% money back guarantee obviously ).
Best wishes for future.
