We ordered Lamb biryani. It was very good, but the mild option was still pretty spicy. Mango lassie really helped temper the heat. Wait staff was very friendly. We sat at the table on the sidewalk during the street festival and enjoyed the atmosphere.
I stayed in San Francisco for a week, i ate their biryani 4 days in a row, that’s how good it is. Different flavor, good spice level and really delicious.
Our go to Indian resto when craving goat curry and garlic naan, Jason our server is already familiar with our order lol
