Homemade Samosas were so good on my first visit last week, I had to place a large order for a family gathering and no one was disappointed 24 samosas devoured happily. Picture less than an hour after arriving had to snap a photo before they were all gone! THANK YOU FRIENDS

I was told the butter chicken was good and so I tried it. IT WAS GOOD! A bit "spicey hot", but still eatable! One caveat? Not enough rice for the butter chicken to take away the "sting" of the sauce. You still can't eat inside and the service is so-so.

My husband and I traveled 12 hours arrived at hotel. Husband asked about any good Indian food near by. Absolutely excellent food!!!I loved the coconut lamb curry, Husband the lamb vindaloo, we shared a mixed appetizer, popadoms, even the chutney was delicious.Then enjoyed the pistachio Kulfi.If we lived in Lodi this would be our "go to"!We were the only ones in dining room... brisk take out business...Ok, since was SO good last night, my husband and I came back husband...
