Ordered the chicken tikki masala medium spicy, garlic naan, and samosas. The green dipping sauce for the samosas was divine. And so was the chicken. Garlic naam was lightly oiled and so crispy. Atmosphere of the restaurant was beautiful. But what really impressed us is when we accidentally left the credit card here and came to pick it up, they even made sure to check for ID! π
