Extensive menu balanced with vegetarian, tofu and meat and seafood options. Many dishes I've not experienced in similarly serious Indian restaurants in Southern CA (including the westside and Artesia!) Exquisite dessert menu. Yum! Attentive wait staff. Reservations recommended for dinner. Thrift and varied lunch menu available daily.
