I am not kidding when I say this place has ruined me for Indian food in the best way. I moved away from San Diego years ago and can't find a place that compares. Every other Indian restaurant I go to is just a bit of a disappointment.

Clean environment, friendly staff, and delicious Indian food. Tue vegetarian selections are yummy and taste authentic. You won't be disappointed. You must get a cup of real Chai tea it sets the mood.
